I'll trust Him to the end; I trust Him when my day is dark, And through the dreary night; I'll trust Him till the ,shadows fall, And faith is changed to sight. I rest in Gh'rist of Calvary. Secure forevermore, Assured that I His' face shall see, When storms of life are o'er; I rest in His atoning Blood, Shed on the Cross » for me, And I am now at peace with God, Through Christ of •Calvary. I know no human Saviour— No Christ that men invent; I only know the Christ of Godr- Him whom the Father sent; No 'human Christ could save me, Nor froua uiy sins set free; The only Christ I worship Is the Christ of Calvary. LIFE SHALL LIVE FOR EVERMORE My own dim life should teach me this, That life shall live for evermore: Else earth is darkness at the core) And dust end ashes, all that is— This round of green,this orb of flame, Fantastic beauty; such as lurks In some wild poet, when he works Without a conscience or an aim. What then were God to such as I? 'Twere hardly worth my while to choose OX things all mortal; or to use A little patience ere I die: 'Twere best at once to sink to peace— Like birds the charming serpent draws, To drop headformost in the jaws •Of vacant darkness, and to cease. —Alfred Tennyson. THE CHRIST OF CALVARY Adam. Baum • A Testimony I love the Christ of Calvary; . His life for me He gave, He suffered bitter agony, My sinful soul to save; Although the sinless Son of God, He stooped to sin and woe, And on the Cross He shed. His Blood That washed me white as snow. I praise the Christ of Calvary, I praise Him all day long; E'er since by faith to Christ I came, My heart's, been filled with song; •-Once I was lost in sin and shame, No song had I to sing; But now my heart doth praise • the Name Of Christ, my Lord and King, I serve the Christ of Calvary; My all to Him I give; Be gave His life a Ransom, He died that I might live; Then why shonld I not serve Hiin, And give to Hint my all? Where'er He leads I'll follow, And gladly heed His call. I trust the Christ of Galvary, There is no truer friend',,, - He saves,, He keeps, He satisfies; .a.• +ass .:r., . By 'PEG" Those who are, or have been driv- ing cars have, read with a great deal of interest the rules regarding the rationing of gasoline . We notice • that the only way in which this fuel, nee- es'sary to the operating of these "iiorseless carriages or wagons" can be purchased is through a .coupon book, which is signed' by the oil eon - troller for Canada. Apparently the number »of coupons differs accordingto the time of year. That quantity may be more or less as the months go by and as the need for gasoline in war work differs. On the front of the coupon the car or truck is identified and the gasoline covered by the coupon must be used in the vehicle as there discribed.' Should the licence number .be defaced the whole book will be rendered in- valid. The ,coupon may be used only as attached to the book. We wonder just how this book can be compared, with the Book of Books which governs our every day life. Each item, even to the smallest de- tail, in connection with the book of coupons has been authorized by the Government of Canada.

This is v. hat he took down: us certain truths, but we differ from the eoupen boo -1 in that we &not al- ways comply with what we know to be right. So .often' we go our own Way . .and thus' show to the world that we are not true followers, of the meek and' lowly Jesus. We are free• to re- turn to -Christ, ask His pardon, and He will forgive ms, but we have paw- ed a bad example to the world, and in fact may have been the means of causing someone to turn back into, the broadway of destruction. Would we. iwant to assume that responsibility? We understands from thebookthat should the nuiaber.:•be defaced the whole book will be rendered invalid. We suppose that means that a new one will have to be purchased and thus the money spent 'on the first one will be 1'ost. The Bible teaches us that if we take the name of Jesus and show to the world that we are a followers of His, and then fall under the temptaton of the evil one we will have forsaken our; Lord That does not mean that God 'has forsaken us. We, in the meantime have wandered away from Him, we have blotted His, name from our lives. What a joy it. clearly shown by the signature of the is to know that just as soon aswe ask oil controller for Canada.

All these things' will carry with them punishment which God intended for those who in close to God and ask Iris. guidance on our study of His teaching how very precious those promises become! Take for instance that beautiful statement with it's aeeompanying promise in Psalm 91:1, "He that dwelleth in tine secret place .of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Al -- nighty." Only those who have the companionship of Christ realize what that promise means. What a comfort it is to us to know that "God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble." We all know what it is to be anxious and to realize the joy which comes into our hearts when we have taken our trouble to Jesus; have asked Him to undertake for us, and have left oar burden at His feet. Everyone is not privileged to own a car and, so be entitled, to purchase a book of coupons, but there i,s» no one who is outside the bounds of the love of God. Salvation is free to everyone. /Ail we need to do is to believe on the, Lord» Jesus Christ.

Massey -Harris leadership in the: developing and building of such labor-soving equip- ment for the farm is recognized throughout the world, and has resulted in an enviable reputation for this great Canadian Company wherever grain is grown. It is but natural, therefore, that a Company with such great resources in plant, skill and experience should be chosen for the pro- duction of various munitions of war. Several types of shell, aircraft wings and parts, and equipment for military transports are being turned out With the skill and efficiency which have made the name Massey -Harris famed throughout the years for products of highest quality. Massey -Harris is proud of its part in pro- viding the implements so essential in modern farming under War conditions and in furnish- ing munitions and equipment so vital to the success of our fighting forces. ig. iliiiw R Kr¢Gii`nt 551r0•-11..�.

One group of them is working steadily in the shot-blasting sector of a Midlands' factory producing shells. Here the din is ace terrific that few of the ordinary workers can stand it. The deaf and dumb, unaware of the inferno of noise around them, placidly concentrate upon the finishing and polishing of the insides of shell. Camps. QUESTION BOX Mrs. W. C. asks: "Isit dangerous' to use real sous milk in baking?" Answer: Sourmilkonly has -a limited amount .of acidity but since other bacteria grow' in separated sour- milk the baked product will have an unde- sirable flavour and may not be of good texture.- - - Mrs,. J. A. B. suggests: ,When you put away woollen garments, sprinkle with table salt; moths, and silverfish will not touch any 'salted' cloth. This method may be used, on chesterfield's and rugs in summer, too. Mrs. M. C. asks: 'Should steak pieces be rallied in flour before can- ningmeat by the hot water method? Answer: No. Flour retards heat penetration, flakes off in the bottom of the jar and gives the meat a 'warmed over' taste. Recipes have In another factorythe rho bt- las t- ing process' is carried out in sound- proof oundproof cabinets which to some extent deaden the din but the deaf and dumb, in a kind of protective armour, con- tinue to be employed on the job. They are excellent workers; in a third fac- tory young deaf and dumb women are painting shell eases as. quickly by hand as would others using snechan- ieal sprayers. •- The deaf and dumb are also. found to be specially useful for war work demanding a keen sense of touch or sight, and. in most cases their sight is exceptional, A group of them— girls—are being trained, far example asexaminers of laetron thread ': at Fort Dunlop. "The very keen pride,” the National Institute for the Deaf points out, "of such workers as these girls in finding that their help is needed by their country in its hour of danger can well be imagined,."
