A WARNING TO MOTORISTS
There are too many motorists who
are prone to regardtheir privilege of
driving over Ontario roads and streets
as a RIGHT. This is very far from
the truth. Motorists are granted the
PRIVILEGE of operating their mo-
tor vehicles in this Province upon the
condition that they do so in conform-
ance with the requirements of law and
the demands of safety.. This privilege
may be revoked or suspended at any
time if a driver gives evidence of dan-
gerous habits, disregard for law or
the rights of others, . or failsto pay
the cost of injuries or darnages which
result from faulty operation of his ve_
hicle.
It may sttrprise some drivers to
learn that at the end of 1933 there
were some six thousand individuals
who were deprived of the right to
either own or operate a motor vehicle
in Ontario, because they had proven
themselves dangerous or lawless or
had .failed to satisfy judgments which
had been rendered against them in
cases arising out of motor vehicle ac-
cidents. Some of these will, no doubt,
regain their . privilegesupon filing
with the Motor Vehicles. Branch proof
of their financial responsibility in the
form of an insurance policy certificate
or a bond or .securities or money to
the amount of $11,000. There are,
however, some who will never again
be permitted to drive, because their
records are so bad that no insurance
or surety company would shoulder
the risk which their operations would.
involve.,
In all, some twelve thousand per-
sons have suffered suspension of driv-
ing licenses and motor vehicle per-
mits
ermits since the Financial Responsibil-
ity Law came into force in Septem-
ber, 1930. All of these have learned
very definitely • that the privilege of
driving a car is not one which may
be demanded but is a privilege to be
protected by observance of the re-
quirements of law and safety. Those
who have regained their driving li-
censes realize that another conviction
or accident may result in its loss for
all time. Those who have not as yet
succeeded in regaining their privilege•.,
know. now that Ontario will nit toler-
ate dangerous or irresponsible driv-
ers upon the streets and highways of
the Province.
Be carefuland courteous; let your
common sense maintain a constant
check on any impulse to drive at ex-
cessive speed; respect the rights of
others; protect your own safety, the
safety of the public, and your driving
license.
SINGING EVANGELIST PASSES
Rev. Dr. H. T. Crossley, who -with
his partner, the late Rev. Johii E.
Hunter, formed a team of evangelists,
passed away in Toronto last week. He
earned the name the "singing evan-
gelist" as during his many years in
this work he won many people to the

well-known throughout Canada and
the United States.
This team of crusaders engaged in
about 400 separate evangelistic Gam-

meetings.

Years ago he and Mr, Hunter car-
ried on a campaign in Wingham and
many of the old timers will remember
the enthusiasm that prevailed.
It is noted that Dr. Crossley was a
bachelor and that he had no near rel-
atives, but the family of his ministry
was large and the influence of liis life
touched thousands of homes. In his
death there passes one who was an
outstanding figure for manyyears.

WEATHER .. AND SUN SPOTS
Look for a cool, if not a cold, Surn-
mer. The popular notion that a sev-
erely cold Winter is always followed
by a . hot Summer is all wrong, the
weather experts say. It is based upon.
nothing but the popular belief, that
there is a natural law of .compensa
tions .which` always works; but that
is not true.:.
Astronomers report the largest sun-
spot on record, just appearing on 'our'
side of the sun. It is 16,000 miles ac-
ross, twice
c-ross,.twice the diameter of the Earth.
That means that a fair percentage of
the sun's. heat passing to Earth will
be blocked off. It also means that
there will be storms, rains, electrical
disturbances and weather freaks such.
as are seldom experienced. And there
are other sun -spots forming; indeed,
from the records of the past experts
loold for a series of them over the
next ,twelve years.
It might be a good idea to clip this
and check up on these predictions oc-
casionally for the next few years.

CHRISTIANITY AND PATRIOT-
I$M.
(Temperance and Good Citizenship)
Sunday, May 13. -Matt. 22:1 to 23:
39.
t Golden. Text;
Thou shalt love the Lord thy God
with all thy heart, and with all thy.
soul, and with all thy mind. This is
the first and great commandment.
And a set:ond like unto it is this:
Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thy-
self, (Matt. 22:37-39,)
Christ's, parable of the marriage
feast etches in sharp relief a picture
of people offered the highest of priv-
ilege and rejecting it, while others,
lacking the high privilege of the first,
gladly welcomed their opportunity
When it came. It was a King's mar-
riage, feast. The guest honoured by
the Royal invitation made light of it
and excused themselves from attend-
ing. An invitation was then sent out
into the highways, and as .lnany as
could be found were brought in.
The Lord told this parable to the
chief priests and Pharisees of the
Jews who had been opposing and
criticizing Him, and now were reject-
ing Him and planning to put Hint to
death. The Jews were God's chosen
people, given a place of honor and
preferment above all the peoples of
the earth. God's love and grace and -
Gospel were offered "to the Jews.
first." And the Jewish nation was re-
jecting all this. Invited to a King's
marriage feast given for His Son, they
would not come. So the invitation was
sent to others.
The Gospel, offered first of all to
the Jews, was irejected when they cru-
cified Christ, the Son of God, their
Messiah; it was then offered to the.
Gentiles, and is still being offered to
all, who will, both Jew and Gentile,
throughout the world. Both then and
now, as the Lord said, "many are call-
ed, but few are chosen," -because so
few choose to be chosen.
A Jewish party called Herodians,
partisans of the Herod family and of
the Roman Government, tried to trap
Christ, asking him: "Is it lawful to
give tribute unto Caesar, or not?"
They thought that if He said "Yes"
this would be breaking with the Jews;
if He said "No" they could accuse
Him of treason,
Strange to say, the Lorddid not fall
into the trap! Calling them hypocrit-
es, He told them to show Him the
,money used in paying Government
taxes, They brought Him "a penny,"
or dettarius, a coin •worth about .a
shilling.
Pointing to the coin, "Whose is this
image, and superscription?" the Lord
demanded.
There was but one answer possible:
"Caesar's."
Then Christ uttered the im$iortal
words that have come down through
the centuries: "Render therefore unto
Caesar the things which are Caesar's;
and unto God the things that are
God's."
There was no answer. Amazed and
confounded at His 'unanswerable re-
ply, they slunk away.
The whole teaching of the Bible, in
the question at issue, is stunmarized
in those authoritative words of the
Son of God. There are duties owed
by every citizen to "Caesar," or hum-
an Government. There obligations are
to be met. And there are .duties that
all owe to God -those obligations are
to be met.
Should the two conflict, there can
be no question as to what slrolud be
done then. "We ought to obey God
rather than men." (Acts 5:29.)
Faithful and consistent Christians
are good citizens and patriots.
Another Jewish party, the Saddu-
cees, religious liberals of that day,
who denied immortality and the re
surrection, then tried to trap Christ,
They put to Hint arhypothetical,ques-
tion as to whose wife a woman would
be "in the resurrection" if she had
kept the Jewish law by marrying suc-
cessively several brothers after one
and another of the brothers had died.
The Lord pointed otit their
ignor-
ant folly
it "not knowing ing theS
Scrip-
tures,
nor the power of God." .l'1 ere.
is neither marrying nor giving in
marriage in the resurrection. But as
to whether there is any i"esurrection
of the dead, had they never read that

and the God' of Jacob?" God is not.

could not call Himslf inthe present
tense, their God,
Two of the Jewish 'parties 'having
been silenced, the Pharisees now tried
their hand. One of thein asked Christ
which Was' "the great commandment
in the law" -a favorite question,
arousing endless discussion,
1 i�;cus ie. n.
s
As though this would baffle the Son
of God!
He gave two commandments ,on
which "hang all the law and the pro-
phets." The first: and great command-
ment: 'Thou shalt love the Lord thy
God with ail thy heart, and with all
thy soul, and with :all thy mind." The
second, like unto it; "Thou shalt love
thy neighbor as thyself."
If we read through the Ten Com-
mandments we shall find' that all are
kept if these two are kept.
Having enemies all the questions
of His enemies and exposed their ig-
norance or unbelief, the Lord now
asked a question. Of these religious
leaders, learned in the Scriptures and
fully acquainted with. the Old Testa-
ment predictions of the Christ, or
Messiah, Jesus asked: "What think ye
of Christ? Whose son is He?"
They had their answer ready: "The
son of David."
How then, countered the . Lord,
"doth David in spirit call hire Lord?"
and He quoted to them the first verse
of Psalm 110. If David called the
Messiah Lord, how could the Messiah
be David's son.
The Pharisees were helpless to an-
swer, and from that day forth none.
of them dared ask Christ•' any more
questions. Yet many a boy or girl in
Sunday School today can answer the
question that baffled the Pharisees.
And now Christ closed in on these
false and hypocritical leaders of the
Jews. The entire twenty-third chap-
ter is given to a verbatim report of
one of the most scoiching, excoriat-
ing philippics in' all literature. He
'exposed 'their selfishness, pride, ego-
tism, hypocrisy. When they made a
convert, He said, "ye make him two-
fold more thechild of hell than your-
selves."' They were "fools and blind."
They were "whited sepulchres full
of dead men's` bones, and of all un-
cleanliness." They were serpents, vip-
ers, they could not "escape the dam-
nation of hell."
Those who talk about the meekness
geniteness and love of Christ as
though this excluded justice and
righteousness have not read the Gos-
pels.

THE QUILT BUG
That old quilt bug just hit any ria,
She's got it bad, you see:,•
Far all shedoes is cut out ,'blocks -
No tirnefor sis and Inc.
She very selclotn wants` to go
And visit any one,
"Oh, what's the use?" she always says
"Sowing's lots more fun,"
The Plower Girl came at first,
t
,
A very pretty one
glut what she calls the crazy quilt
Is prettier by far thati some.
So now her second quilt's downstairs,
All stretched out on a frame,
She quilts so much, that goodness me,
I even hate the name.
Aupt Bessie came the other day,
To stay a little while,
But mother took her right right downstairs
-I'11 bet she sewed a mile.
She's making now the Dresden Plate„'
• Which will be number three,
And so I've started <sewingt too
` That old quilt bug's bit me
So now we're all a -work-in' hard,
Aunt Bessie, ire and ria,
And who do you stippose' is`sewing
now -
None other than my pa.
