A NEW IDEA FOR TAXING
A couple of weeks ago the Clinton
News -Record made a suggestion ad-
vocating taxing the owner who lets
his propertygo to wreck rather than
the man who keeps his property in
good condition or improves : it.
Many papers have commented on
this idea and some see a great deal of
merit in the suggestion. It is a fact.
that property which is allowed to get
into bad shape is not only an eyesore
but does not add to the wealth of a
THS WINGHAM AD'VW.NCE-TI ES
In these days of depression many
owners are struggling to retain their
homes and many landlords have not
sufficient income from the properties
they rent to meet 'overhead expenses.
In view of this situation it would ap-
pear to us that any penalty placed
on such properties might create a
very greathardship and most careful
consideration. would be necessary be-
fore any such scheme could be put in
force, .,
A property is supposed to be as-
sessed on a definite percentage of its
actual value and assessments should
be made so that the ratio of assess-
ment on any property is in . proper
proportion with the assessment value
of, any other property in the commun-
ity. Tokeep tap . this principle under
the above-mentioned scheme would be
impossible.

the vacationist, Water supplies are
examined free of charge and measures
made available for the disinfection of
drinking waters. The services of the
central and branch laboratories of the
Department are always available. It
is advisable for the cottager, as a first
measure, to snake stare that the water
supply is safe from contamination, He
may do this by sending samples to the
laboratories. Sterile bottles for this
purpose may .be obtained upon re-
quest. Samples should be taken be-
fore the cottage is occupied and con-
tinued until the quality is assured. At
least five samples, taken at 3 -day in-
tervals; are suggested. If . the water
shows contamination it may be dis-
infected, either by boiling or by the
use of chlorine, Information is also
available on the proper construction
of wells to protect against surface
contamination.

A NOTE FOR MOTORISTS
Ontario motorists should remember
that the law which makes them liable
for damages to people who may be
injured while driving with them still
stands. A proposal was made that the
governing regulation or statute should
be amended, but the broposed amend-
ment was not enacted.

One witness at the Stevens Com-
mittee Investigation made the state-
ment that some jams contained less
than 10 per cent. of the fruit from
which they were represented to. be
made, ' This reminds us of a story we
heard in the war days. A man appear-
ed before the Tribunal in London
Eng., asking that he be excused from
conscription as his occupation was
such that it was impossible to replace
him. He was asked what his occupa-
tion was and his reply shocked the
Tribunal as he made wooden pits for
raspberry jam.

Policyholders Add to Insurance
Approximately 5,000 Canadians applied for and received Mutual Life insur-
ance policies in amounts ranging from 000 to t$120,000 and aggregating
many millions, between January 1st and April 30th, 1934.
One-half of this business was taken by present policyholders—
a splendid endorsement of the results of their original policies.
Payments to Living Policyholders Three Times
Greater Than Death Claims
Death Claim payments in 1934 already total $1,128,954

THE SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON
THE LAST -JUDGMENT.
Sunday, May 27 -Matt. 25:31-46.
Golden Text:
We must all appear before the
judgment seat of Christ. (II, Cor. 5:
10.)
That the Bible is a book of proph-
ecy cannot be denied. The Old Testa-
ment was filled with prophecies of
the coming of Israel's Messiah and
Saviour of the world. He came, and
the detailed prophecies of centuries
earlier were fulfilled to the letter —
indeed, it has been noted that twen-
ty-five Old Testament prophecies con-
cerning Christ's death were fulfilled
within a single twenty-four hours at
the time of His crucifixion. Try to
delete the prophecies from the 13ible
and only a mutilated, unrecognizable
book would be left.
If the hundred of prohpecies of,the
first coining of Christ were fulfilled
literally .and in unmistakable detail at
His first advent, what about the pro-
phecies of His second coming? If the
one, why not the other? -It is a reas-
onable question, and the evangelical
Christian Church through the centur-
ies has held unquestionably to belief
in the second advent of Christ. The
apostle Paul, in his inspired Epistle
to Titus, calls it a blessed hope as he
writes: "Looking for that blessed
hope, and the glorious appearing of
the great God and our Saviour Jesus
Christ."
Last week we began studying the
great Olivet discourse of the Lord,
which stands . out in His detailed tea-
chings like the Sermon on the Mount.
They were both mountain -top mess-
ages: the one at the beginning of His
ninistry, the other toward the close,
n His message on the Mount of 01-
ves He answered a question of His
disciples as to His return and the end
of the age. This week's lesson gives
he closing part of this great proph-
cy uttered by the Son. of God.
It begins with the words: "When
he Son of Man shall come in His
tory." So Christ is coming again.
Over and over again He declared that
He would thus come, In that great
message of comfort (John 14) begin-
ing with the words, "Let not your
teart be ;troubled; ye believe in God,
elieve also in' Me," He said: "I go
o prepare a place for you. And if I
o and prepare a place for you, I will
ome again." -
A very striking fulfilment of pro-
hecy in connection with the Lord's
eturn is occurring' constantly today,
ith entire unconsciousness on the
art of ,those who fulfil it. Some do
of hesitate, to say that they do not
elieve at all in any promise that
hrist is corning again. Things have.
•one on unchanged: through the cen-
uries, and will continue to go' on, they.
ay. Why should we believe that
hrist is coming back again? This
enial of His return begat in the first
entury, and so Peter wrote: "Know -
ng this first, that there shall come
n the last days scoffers, walking af-
er their own lusts, and saying: where
the promise of His coming, for sin-
e the fathers fell asleep all ,things
ontinue as they were from the be
inning of the creation. •(II, -Pet. 3:
-4.) Then Peter goes on to explain
atiently: "But, beloved, be not ig•
orant of this one thing, that one day
with the Lord as a thousand years,
nd a thousand years as one day. The
ord is not slack concerning His pro-
ise, as some Yuen count slackness,
ut is long-suffering toward us, not
tiling that any should perish, but
tat all should come to repentance,"

WINGHAM ONTARIO
"all the holy angels with Him." It is
a striking fact that angels appeared
on earth at the time of His birth in
Bethlehem, at the time of His resur-
rection in the garden, at the time of
His -ascension from .the Mount of
Olives; and now we learn here and
from II. Thessalonians 1:7, that an-
gels will accompany Him upon His
return. It was two angels who said
to the disciples who "looked stedfast-
ly toward Heaven" as the Lord as-
cended: "Yes risen of Galilee, why
stand ye ,gazing up into Heaven? This
same Jesus, which is taken up from
you into Heaven, shall so come in like
manner as ye have seen Him go into
Heaven."
The Lord tells us that when He
comes again He will "sit upon the
throne of His glory; and before Him
shall be gathered all nations" His
glory was voluntarily laid aside when
He was on earth "ill the days of His
flesh." It was the glory of God His
Heavenly Father, for the night before'
He was crucified Ile prayed: "And
now, 0 Father, glorify Thou Me with
Thine own self with the glory which
I had with thee before the world was"
(John 17:5.) And Christ is to take
the throne indeed v'hen Ile comes
again, for "Godalso hath highly ex-
alted Him, and given Him a name'
which is above every name: that at
the name of Jesus every knee should
bow."
The lesson theme is the judgment
of the nations, which occurs at the
time of the. Lord's return. This ' is
not the last judgment, described in
Revelation 21. In the present judg-
ment, "He shall separate them one
from another, as a shepherd dividcth.
his sheep from the goats: and He
shall set the sheep on His right hand,
but the goats on the left." We hear
the words "sheep and goats" used jok-
ingly oftentimes, and forget the bless-
ed and dread significance of the figure
as our Lord .rises it. The one class
of persons is to have eternal fellow-
ship with God and Christ; the other
class is to, be eternally separated from
God and Christ, for "these shall go
away into everlasting punishment: but
the righteous into life eternal."
The basis of judgment here describ-
ed is the treatment given by the nat
ions to those in need—hungry, thirsty,
strangers, naked, sick, imprisoned.
The Judge declares: "Inasmuch as ye
have done it unto one of the least of
these my brethren, ye have done it
unto Me."
There are differing interpretations
of the meaning of this, but one out-
standing lesson is plain. Those who
have received Christ as Saviour have
the love of God in their hearts, and
show it by their treatment of others.
On the other hand, "He that loveth
not knoweth not God; for God is
love.'
Gold Hoarding Gobbler
Has North All Excited
Up around .Prince Rupert, which is
the end of steel on the northern route
of the Canadian National Railways to
the Pacific Coast, they are all excited.
And a turkey, just an ordinary com-
mon -garden variety of turkey meant
to placate the palate caused all the
hullabalo. In the crop of this bird
was discovered three gold nuggets.
The poultry vender isn't saying where
the bird came from. But he knows.,
Some day soon he intends to shut yup
shop and start an the trail of the mo-
ther lode. A lot of people intend to
shut tap shop and follow him.
