There are many things which we should forget and at the same tine there are countless incidents in out- lives itrlives which it would he helpful for us. to remember. When things try our patience we should just go away where we Will be alone, until the storm blows over. In looking back over our lives we can see how we have drifted away from someone with whom we at one time were very friendly.- For years that one was very kind to us and one day sharp words passed between us, and we forgot something we should have ,remembered. We allowed that one incident to blot out acts of kind- ness of many years. Is that fair? Where is the forgiveness in our hearts? During the three years of His ear- thly ministry Christ stood the contin- uous fault finding and cruelty of his enemies. Those acts culminated in His trial before Pelate, the trial which was the most famous, and at the same time the most unjust trial in history. Following the sentence of Petate, Christ went an his way to Calvary. The greater part of the way He car- ried His own Cross and suffered the jeers of those who pressed around ):Iiia. Without resistance He allowed Himself to be nailed to the Gross, and there in spite of all that he had had to content with He cried, "Father, forgive them for they know not what they do," Let us compare that with the little we endure. As I write, somewhere in the dis- tance, someone is singing, "In the sweet bye and bye„ we shall meet on that beautiful shore." Can we expect to nieet in that Heavenly Home with the Christ, who gave Himself in order that we might enjoy eternity with Him if we will not forgive and for- get." Is there really any sense to that. What is the use of forgiving if we are continually going to recall in- cidents which at the time have made us unhappy. Perhaps we do not for- get, but we can, with God's help train our minds that when the mem ory of an injustice comes back to us we will see it in a different light. We will realize that when the one who injured us, if we wish to call it that, did so. Maybe he was in 3o117e deep trouble of which We knew noth- ing;.

There is a great deal more kindness in the world than unkindness, if we only look for it and after all it is earn:- to aryto find. We should forget any kind- ness, we have done but remember any thoughtful deed which has been done to us. "Have you had a kindness shown Pass it on. 'Tway not meant for you alone Pass it on Let it travel clown the years Let is wipe anothers tears Till in Heaven the'edeecl appears, Pass it on." When we have had what we cnli an injustice done to us tell it • to God alone. It will clean up mnuth quicker if we do not talk about it. To forgive or forget a wrong is anything but a sign of weakness. As a usual thing there are faults on both side. It takes Courage to go to some- one and ask him to forget the things of the past and be friends, We do not know how they will receive our advancement but if, after prayer, we have gone to thein and have tried to be friends, wehave, in the sight of God done the best we could do and no matter how we are received we know God has forgiven us. Then above all we must remember the many blessings God has given us. If we would spend our time counting these blessings. we would have less time to spend in doing those things, which in later years we will want to forget. John 3:30 gives us the thought, 'He must increase bat I must decrease." As we allow Him to come unto our lives so we will be enabied not only to forgive but also to for- get, 'He must increase" -yes, indeed! God Himself hath thus decreed, Every knee to Rini most bow, Ever 'tongue, His name avow." Blessed Lord! Thou must increase; And, as surely, I decrease, Oh to truly nothing be, Oily, Lord, exaltng Thee." "Tama border curtains by the pair .in small neat effects and fancy Tuscan grounds.

CHEESE Being Made by British Farmers with Help of ..Czechs Czechoslovak refugees are helping Britain to get : cheese from sheep's milk. They have had 'experience of ewe -milking in Czechoslovakia which used to export 2,000 tons of ewe's milk cheese a year. The making of this' novel cheese has become practicably by the inven- tion of a new milking machine just designed in Britain, and, after' ex- periments at the. Northatnpstonehire Farm Institute, 400 ewes a day are now being milked by it. The ewes are put in pens in.upits ,of six and milking is done at a pulsation speed' of 100 per minute. During the milking the milk is automatieallly transferred to one of two churns, either .of which can be emptied without affecting the main vaccum, and power is supplied by a 11, h.p. engine driving a rotary vac - num ptunp. British farmers are now to be en- couraged to milk their ewes, if only for short period after weaning the lambs. In both butter fat and curd. ewe's milk is neatly three times as. rich as cow's milk and each ewe could rpovide between 1 Ib. and 2 lbs. of curd a week for at least four months of the year.. There are so many ewes in Britain that the people could, it is estimated, get as much 'cheese front them as they ate before the war and still leave some over for export. V WINDOWS FOR AIR RAID No Longer Splintered by, Blast. "Blitz" blast need no longer send glass splinters flying in all directions during air ;raids over Britain this winter. The British Government's Experi- mental Building Research Station at Watford has succiessfully tested three new alternatives to unprotected windows. The first is used in place of window glass. It consists of netting embedded in thick cellulose acetate fihn which lets in light and keeps out rain. There is a heavier variety to take the place of north lights, roof lights or other glass in which there is a heavy strain. It equals quarter - inch plate glass in strength. A third device is a lighter forni of celluslose netting fixed to window panes by adhesive. A square of plate glass covered with this netting was put under a spring-loaded hammer which was brought down upon it, travelling one-eigth of an inch be- yond the point of `impact, The sinatterecl glass remained neatly in position under the netting, V C Y 14 "YOUR HOME STATION" WEEKLY PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS 920.kcs.

Johnson Those Rural Rhymes in booklet neat Lie on my desk, beside nay salt,. And they for me have made much joy, For he who wrote was an Ashfeld boy. With skilful axe his sturdy sire Hie home had built, whieh. we'd admire If standing now, with byre and• sty, By babbling brook that gambol'd by. A. scant two- miles from where these stood. Our homestead lay amidst the wood; And that old school, with basswood, tree, Once sheltered him, and sheltered rue. In that same school with vim and zest, He tadght the young to do their best At work or play, and follow true The Golden Rule, whate'er ensue. With manner shave, and charming smile, Each boy and girl he did beguile, That to this day his fame doth shine In Finiay's, school, old Number Nine. Eght years thus spent had spread his fame; From richer fields a call then came, And he was off, with sigh and tear At leaving friends he held so dear. His shoes he left for me to fill, And in 'I htept, against my will, For: much T-fear'd, with quake and quail, That, after his, my work should fail. And''mong the names within this book lily fainily-name myattention took; All 'A•shfield friends of odic lay Were friends of mine, I proudly say. That maple tree, still stout and green, B7 my mind's eye is plainly seen; Thus all will know with what delight This booklet glows before my sight. Full forty years, without respite, On history's page his pen did write Great' teacher's work, that long shall live. When "dust to dust" release shall give. In school and church 'twos his delight Strong minds to build, and errors blight; No nobler work could one desire, And all hiss friends do him admire. In high esteem throughout this land The Johnston name shall firmly stand, And o'er the burn he'll find high place, For work well done, and deeds of grace. Astd now I end my first essay At writing thoughts in rhyming way; And I confess that common prose Much bettee doth my thoughts expose. NOTE --After carefully reading the booklet of poems, written by my life- long friend, William Henry Johnston of Exeter, the impulse came to me to try if I could write something of a rhyming nature, and the above poetic abortion resulted. It has confirmed city opinion that a poet's hands are too firmly shackled by chains of conven- tion, such as metre, rhyme, etc., re- lieved only by poetic Iieense. How- ever, I should like to see my effort in print, by way of an expression of my sincere respect for an Old Boy of our native Ashfield -one who has lived a most useful Iife in every respect, and deserves the best regards of all, THOS.

We know a man who travels across Canada several times a year. Ile meets and talks with literally hundreds of people of all classes. "Tho more people I meet," says he, "the clearer it becomes to the that folks in the main went to be kind and help- ful. They're a pretty decent lot. "But for unfailing courtesy and helpfulness I would pick the men and women in the telephone service. I've yet to find one , wouldn't turn to with perfect confidence in an emer- gency. They seem to put courtesy first every time. That 'voice -with -the -smile' phrase is a matter of actual practice-. not just a phrase." Well, it's fine to hear anyone talk like that.

On to Valcartier, another name imperishably associated with the days of 1914.1918, where we inet French Canadian officers and men and gained new insight into the military situation in Quebec. Then to Hebert, that great new military camp hewed from the backwoods of Nova Scotia, final training point afor Canadian troops bound for England. Lastly, Halifax, a story in itself, where the great pulse of Canada's war activity beats at an accelerated pace and where we rode one of the fifty Am- erican destroyers to sea and dined at Admiralty House with the Commo- dore and his staff. To many other places we journeyed, many new acqu- aintances made and stirring stories heard. Here a man from Dunkirk, another from the sunken Fraser, one who had' just flown from England or another about to board a bomber for the Old Land, heroes of the Battle of Britain and men from London who had lived and worked through the blitz, In succeeding articles we will try to tell the story of Canada's army, navy and air force, of the turning wheels and spining lathes that are writing a new and glorious chapter in Canada's history and which may revolutionize the 'Dominion's entire future. Certain it is that since the fall of 'France a little more than one year ago, :a ni:ir"acle has been wrought. While Canadians filmed impatiently, the 'keen brains df Canada's military and industrial leaders were 'working night, and day to draft the blueprint of Canada's magnified war machine and to set in motion the wheels that would make her contribution to the Empire cause one of which every, Cmnadian may rightly be proud. vodunweesperamosossamosso Fall Fair Dates The following is a list of Agricul- tural Societies' Fairs and Exhibitions Bayfield, Sept. 24-26.

Picture opportunities are abundant, so have your camera with you wherever you go. IT ISN'T very often that you'il.flnd a dog looking inquisitively around a corner at a eat, but if you do, it will be an occasion well worth photographing. You've probably seen similar oddities, and often expressed the desire to take pie- tnres which really capture such sit- uations. Many opportunities like this occur but once, and, by having your camera with you at all times, you can take advantage of these in- cidents to make a number of inter- esting snapshots, Besides the unusual, there are many other things that afford exdel- lent subject material for the cam- era hobbyist. For example, activi- rtes of general interest offer an abundantsource of picture oppor- tunities. Hiking, motoring, swim- ming, boating -in fact, any sport will yield a number of good soap - shots. Or, wherever you go -to the mountains, seashore, or inland lake---Ybu'Il have the chamois topic• luxe the scenic beauty as well as the interesting happenings on a memorable vacatiou, 'a week=end •trip or just a day's jaunt. There's no• single formula to fol. low when you take your camera with you, but there are acme"good •point's welt wortit:reffientheifng.' First, flatways ltibk•ftlr scenes that are characteristic of the place you are visiting, whether you are out for just a short drive, or a trip to some distant section of the country., Second, try to organize your. shooting so that the pictures tell a reasonably well ordered story. Not just a lot of shots of one thing, but a step-by-step account of what you did and what went on, Third, always be on he look- out. Watch for unusual or "din ferent" pictures such as the one il- lustrated above. They add a great deal of interest and variety to your album. In scenic shooting, don't let broad, breath -taking views retained, Vet. They're good subjects-•-but-iin elude 'a foreground object ea• "frame" when possible, to give them depth and creative feeling of distance. In picturing the things you do, always try to include some action -not necessarily rapid motion, but people doing something. In brief, make each •picture tell a story. Chances to get ekcellent snap- shots are everywhere, and it's easy to build a line collection. Keep tour camera with you constantly, Cant bring back a permanent'record et your experiences. 342 John Vas Guilder
