Tomorrow is Good Friday, the day which Christian peoples the world over keep in conmlemoration of the death upon the cross of the Saviour of men. It' is a solemn church holi- day, a day for fasting and prayer, not one for feasting and merriment: And I say this even though' was not brought up in either of the two com- munions which have always made much of Lent and its ceremonial ob.. servances and although I d'e belong to a communion which also includes one which at the trine of Reformation set its face like granite against the continuance of a great many` of these forms and :ceremonies, But tcatith Scram aIIP OF TICE G tnabtan etit of , 1,a ,oua intra;; and Life Insurance Companies in Canada, Edited by GRANT FLEMING, M.D., Associate Secretary CARE 01' THE INFANT We ,believe that every mother de- sires to do what is best for her child. All of us hope that every •baby will receive proper care so that he may :grow up into a healthy adult. A great responsibility rests upon every mother. A great responsibility and, at the same time, a great privil- ege. : For upon the mothers of this reountry today depends the health of the citizens of the next generation. The infant is absoutely dependent -Upon his mother. Beyond his ability -to express pain and hunger by means of crying, he is a very helpless. crea- ture. It is this extreme helplessness that in many ways is so appealing to- • the mother, while at the same time it makes :great demands upon her. It is a fact ,that a great deal of 'the sickness which • occurs' amongst 'infants is due to the fact that moth. err. instead' of breast-feeding their "babies, put; thein on artificial feed- " ings. Thera is no artificial feeding ' that can compare with the natural ' food. The child who is deprived . of the natural food loses something that cannot be replaced, and has riot an, '•equal chance to grow up strong and well ay compared with his naturally fed brother. Why are babies artificially fed? `There area few who are so unfor- tunate as to lose their mothers, and also, in a few cases, the mother's ill- ness as for example, when she has tuberculosis, makes it impossible for her to nurse her child. But in the vast majority of cases It is because the •mother does not know that she is doing the wrong thing' when site weans her baby. Indeed she thinks, for some reason 'she cannot nurse her child. As a matter of fact there are very few women who cannot nurse their' babies, but in many cases 'they need some instruction as to how to do it or they will fail in their attempt; We therefore urge upon all moth- ers, in fairness to themselves and to their dhildren, never to wean their babies because they axe finding dif- ficultyin nursing, ' or because they think the child is not doing well, or because some well-meaning friend or neighbor tells pf,some wonderful ar- tificial ,food. ` To do so Is a serious mistake. Seek advice .from your family doctor; he will tell you what you need to know so that you can nurse' your baby and so give 'Min the best chance to grow up into a heal- thy adult. Never wean the baby un- less advised to do so by your family physician. Questions concerning Health, ad- dressed to the Canadian Medical As soeiation, 184 Ccilege Street, Toron- to, will be answered personally by letter. Edited By Mabel R. Clark we have all learned something in the intervening years; :we have learned, that the form Without the spirit is dead; that it is the state ' of the :heart. of man which is important. We are more tolerant of .the other+si view- point than our forebears were. Wle can now each worship with the other,. entering into the spirit •of worship, no natter what the form, and surely that is some advance. Then,' Sunday is Easter, the most, gladsome season of the whole year, even transcending Christmas in its joyousness. Some folk recall that Easter is but the celebration of the return of Spring, that it was originally the feast of a pagan goddess. But that cannot take from its sacredness to Christians. It has been taken up by the Chirstian Church and made the celebration of the rising from the dead of our Lord Jesus, and asrsuch it is kept today all over the Christian world. What smatter that some folk seem to think much more of new Easter finery than of the Great Event which it eonumemorates? There is no harm in donning a new dress or hat. or suit on Easter clay; one likes to make an outward demonstration of one's inward joy. But the donning 'of fresh garments is 'but a 'secondary thing; the donning of a new inward - dress is the important matter. And surely it is a dull soul that can go meditat- ively through the season of Lent and Good. Friday and the Easter festivi- ties without some uplift of soul; some fresh aspirations after right- eou:sness, May we all greet the joyous Easter Day more thoughtful- ly,.with greater heart-searching than perhaps we have ever done before, —REBEKAH.

Yes, this has ,happened often, but quite unnecessarily. All fruits and vegetables sold in tin cans in Canada are graded and. the grade designation is plainly marked on the label. FANICY QUAL- ITY, CHOICE QUALITY and STAN- DARiD QUALITY are found in retail stores. The lowest grade —SECOND QUALITY -4s rarely seen. These grades of quality, are enforced by Do- minion Government inspections and if products are bought by quality satisfaction is assured. "FANCY QUALITY" is as nearly , perfect as possible, selected ,for ap- pearance and care in preparation. It may be used when uniformity of 'size and colour are considered important. use it as it comes from the can. or for special salads. "CHOICE QUALITY" is not so perfect in appearance' but quite as good in flavour and is peeked from tender products. It may he used -to advantage where flavour and tender- ness are important, but appearance is not so essential, "STANDARD QUALITY" lacks uniformity, but is quite as good in food value. It May used where ec- onomy is essential. Fruit of this grade is excellent for puddings,,gela- tine dishes or frozen desserts. Vege. tables may be used in escalloped dish- es, some salads and• for soups. Commercially canned foods have left the emergency shelf and taken their place in every day meals, and are found on the tables of even farm- ers' and fruit growers. If bought by grade and if different grades of each product are kept on hand, the menus may be varied and economical. The size of cans is important. It is always economy to buy the largest sized can which may be conveniently used. The following table showing No. 1 special common sizes may ;prove helpful: Can Size Approx.

Yet in His torment, mindful' of His mioa, Pleadieing for men in leve and pity, still, : Think! All His weight on His torn hands depended, Yet all for us His tender dying thought, The crimson tide of sacrifice de. scended While everlasting life for ,us' 1-e bought. Warm glows my heart, for on this day most holy My glorious • Lord flings off the bonds of death. The earth proclaims that He, the pure and lowly Is quickened with His Heavenly Father's breath. And thus may we, on this transoen. • dent morning, Spring up from death to new and radiant life. Aflame with love which, in its glee- - ious dawning ' Shall fling aside tho bonds of pride and strife. Joyful that we, by Christ -exampled living, May prove He is alive, Who once was dead. And healing all His wounds by self- less giving— With Dowels of bliss may crown that shining Head. - - Amen! —Sara Mary Lee. EASTER MORN On Easter morn our thoughts should be On Jesus and His Iove, He died for us that we might live And meet Hini up above. On Easter morn He rose again, Triumphant from the grave. The cross He bore was not in vain, For all the world He'll save. On Raster morn our thanks we give For this great gift of love: • Love so amazing, so divine, He died that we might live On Easter ;norm, in Ioving praise, Our songs will rise to Thee.
