THE TAX ON GOLD When the budget was brought clown in the House of Commons last week and revealed that there was to be a tax on gold, a most terrible howl went up from many miners and brokers, also those who hold gold stocks. The day following the announce- ment the gold stocks dropped in price considerably but recovered some be- fore the market closed. The follow- ing day they again recovered. The tax on gold is not so serious for the mines, in our opinion, as some would make out. The average price of gold last year was $28 per ounce and the tax: of 10% which was placed on gold in the recent budget does not apply if it makes a price of less than $30 per ounce for the mines. For years the mines received $20.67 for their gold and this was consid- ered a good price. The price to -day is about $35.00 so the gold mines are •••••••,..1 if.c.1141AG' RYER, Relieved Mrs. Edward James' baby had two teeth when less than three months old.

It is surprising how few avail themselves of this service, but we are convinced that were they to try this ;system for a short period they would 'continue the service. A proper garbage collection adds greatly to the sanitary condition of the town and saves considerable time and trouble. Give this service a trial —it is well worth while.

All milk sold in that town must be pasteurized. , * * * * If you have not your 1934 car mar- kers yet, take a tip and get them at once. * * * * Kincardine tax rate was reduced 3 mills this year but is still 54 mills.

Golden Test The Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give His life a ransom for many. (Matt. 20:28.) Five great lessons in service stand out in this chapter: 1. Assured surpises in the Lord's recognition of men's service. 2. The supreme example of true service. 3. Selfish desire for honor re- buked. 4. Service the secret of great - 11055. 5. The Lprd renders compassion ate service. The Lord told a parable of "the Kingdom of heaven," He described a householder or emplor early in the Morning hiring laborers to work :in his vineyard, promising them the us- ual day's wage, a shilling (Revised Version). Later in the morninghe saw others, awaiting employment, and engaged them, not specifying any a - Mount. TiVice again, and at Still lat- er hours,: he did the Same, and "about the' eleventh hour" repeated. the .-ek- perienee, engaging Men Whom no one had hired through theday, To all except the first lot he promised to pay "watsoever is right," When the day was over lie told his i steward to pay off the men:, "begin - 1 Mpg from the last unto the first." The 'eleventh hour Men received a shilling 1 apieee, and so did all the others. When the first lot:Were paid, who had been engaged •early in the morning, they complained, pointing out that the men who had worked only one hotly .were. receiving the same amount as them- selves, "which have. borne theburden and heat of the day." , . "Friend," answered: the household - et., "I do thee no wrong: Didst not thou agree with me for a shilling? . „ Is it not lawful for the to do what r will with mine own? is thine eye evil, because I am good?" The t.ard added this tornment on the parable: "So the last shill be firat and the first last: for many he calle but few chosen." An obvious meaning of this parabl is that, in the service of the Lor Jesus Christ—and everything shoul be done by every child .of God a "'unto the Lord"—we should be :nor interested in serving Him faithful] d He did: "Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give His life a d ransom for many." It is some thnes d said ignorantly that Christ said noth- s ing about dying as the sinner's Sub - e stitute and Saviour, but that this was y added later by others in their man - than in what we get for it. That the Lord will "pa.Y" or reward those who serve Him faithfully is made very plain in the Scriptures. But the pay- ment should not have first place in our interest; rather the service. "Ou Lord is seeking to unfold a new wort of relationship to a new Master tha will be utterly different from all th standards of the world." Now the Lord takes His twelve dis ciples apart, On His way to Jerusalem made theologY. How could the Lord have said it more plainly than in the words that He would "give His life a ransom for many"? On the way to Jerusalem, two blind ✓ men by the roadside cried out to Him d and the multitude rebuked them for t their boldness. The Lord did not re - e buke them. He called them to Him- self and asked what they wanted. "Lord, that our eyes may be open- Sd Jesus had compassion on them and touched their eyes; and immedi- ately their eyes received sight, and they folowed him." Only men whose eyes have been opened spiritually by the Lord can "follow Him." and tells them plaintly, yet not for the first time, that He is to be betrayed to the chief priests, be condemned to death, mocked, scourge, and crucified and that He shall' rise again the third day. There indeed is the supreme ex- ample of true service: The Lord of Glory consenting ;to die in the place of lost sinners that they might be sav- ed. And just at this time with this am- azing prediction- of Christ's service before them, comes the mother of James and John with her two sons, and makes an almost .unbelievable re- quest of the Lord; "Grant that these my two sons may sit, the one on thy right sand and the other on the left, in Thy kingdom." How utterly she and .her two sons, evidently consenting to or desiring her retatiest, had missed their Lord's tea- ching on service! No wonder the Lord answered: "Ye know not what ye ask." Were they willing to go to the throne by the pathway He was to follow — persecution and death? Were they able to do so? Lightly they answered.: "We are able." Then the Lord made a sobering re- ply. "Ye shalt drink indeed of my cup," He told them—and they did; but to sit on His right hand and on His left was not His to give, but must be decided by His Heavenly Father, When the other ten disciples heard of this selfish request made by two of their number, "they were moved with indignation against the two bre- thren," Why? Only because they would have liked the same honor. for themselves! "You selfish thing," said the little girl to her little brother at the table, when he helped himself to the' largest cookie, "I wanted that for myself." 'What' tragic blemishes there are in the, record of the Lord's disciples!, Only a divine Saviour, Himself the Son of God, could have wrought the miraculous change in their lives and' their whole spirit and attitude, ' that He brought to pass later by death resurrection, and the gift of His holy Spirit, Quietly He rebuked them by telling them the secret of real greatness — not the spurious greatness they were all dovcting for themselves. "Who- s't4ver will be great among you, let him be your minister (or servant); and whosoever will be chief among you,,let him be your servant." Service is the secret of greatness., The greatest man who ever lived, God as well as man, the: Lord Jesus Christ Himself, proved this by what SCHOOL REPORT Belgrave Public School Report for the winter term.

Munn (1), of Montreal, has man- aged to win two college degrees. A graduate of McGill University, he se- cured his second degree recently when he became a Bachelor of Divinity at the annual convocation of the United Theological College in Montreal. He will be ordained in due course and he hopes to secure a position in a divin- ity school. A strong supporter of Prof. King Gordon, Mr, Munn helped to raise funds to keep the professor's services. His sister, Miss Mary Munn (2), blind like hitnself, is a well-known pianist and is attending the London School of Music on a Canadian scholarship.
