Yet, Italy, a small, compact coun- try, which could he hidden in a cor- ner of Ontario, has not yet been able to develop its agricultural resources to their utmost, in spite of the fact that it contains as many people as Canada, New York, Illinois, Penn- sylvania, Ohio and Massachusetts combined. Prince Caeteno, American -trained Italian engineer who died recently, owned most of the Pontine Marsh, between Naple and Rome. His fam- ily has owned it for 2,000 years, and for 2,000 years reclamation work has been going on there. Part of the marsh has been made lately into good farm land, but there is a hundred years' work yet to be done. Looking at such facts and figures, we smile at the enthusiasm of those who think it possible to solve ell of Canada's faun land problems in <a few years. * The time is drawing near when the citizens of Wingham will either re- elect the old Council or elect a new one.

"My Visit to the Exhibition" The family of which I am the youngest member has been waiting for years for its ship to come in. It has taken so long to reach port that we are at last beginning to grve up hopes and reconcile ourselves to the fact that it is shipwrecked. The out- come of all this is that we have no car, and so I had no way of getting to the Toronto Exhibition. When lo! a sail appeared on the horizon, and even if it wasnt' our ship, it was a friend's Chevrolet which kindly off- ered me a chance down. Monday was a typical Exhibition day. As we entered the grounds the Lake Ontario breezes flung tantaliz- ing odors of the Fair toward us. We hurried toward the General Motors building, entered, and right before our eyes were three answers to any girl's prayers, three good-looking mechanics of the En-ar-co Gasoline Company, all bending attentively ov- er the cutest roadster occupied by a stunning deb. Those En-ar-co peo- ple certainly know how to advertise. We turned from this to be faced by a beautiful row of ..cars. We ap- proached these in awe. "I've heard about Packards, but I never dreamed they were as lovely as this," I remarked: "Packard nothing!" snorted the salesman. "This is a new Chevrolet de Luxe, Miss. Note the lines and these fixtures." I did, and in my mind compared Mr. Jones' old Chevrolet at home to these new cars. It was like compar- ing a lovely butterfly to rather an ugly lumbering caterpillar. I learned from this salesman that the Chev- rolet will be improved still more with every year, though I find it hard to believethat any car could be any better. From there we went into a Ford V8 talkie, which taught us how the parts of the car are made and. put together. It was interesting as well as instructive. Next the Pure Food Building at- tracted us, as it seemed to have at- tracted dense throngs of people. I am at the age when I begin to look' ahead and think it's about time I learned to cook. You 'see, 'I come from a village where ther are no chain stores, and I never dreamed there were such bargains as the Dominion Stores presented, especial- ly'.in canned goods. Right there I dreamed. a dream, of our fruit cellar shelves just lined with glimmering tin cans and my mother sitting ie. a cosy kitchen . reading The Globe, while next door our neighbors, know- ing nothing of Dominion Store bar- gains, sweltered amid steaming ket- ties of preserves, 1 am also interested in house planning, and what a house I could In m basement have.y basem t the chief feat- ure is •a Beatty washing machine, and by its side a :Beatty electric ironer.

There is one thingthat the Ex- hibition as a whole taught me, and that is the great debt that we the youth of Canada, owe to our fore- fathers, who had no such selfish thoughts as we, but labored that their descendants night benefit by things such as the Toronto Exhibition. ELTINTICE NEWTON. (Age 16 years.) * * * Second Prize Letter Russel Rattan, Gorrie, Ont. "My Visit to the Exhibition" Dear Globe: I have lived on the farm all my life, and as this was my first trip to the exhibition, I was all ears, eyes and attention. 1 went into the Automotive Build- ing and learned from Ford's exhibit the wonderful improvement on Dad's old Model T. The cars of every manufacturer were beauties, but bend. your head a little closer and let me whisper—the farmers can afford to look at these beauties, but that's all. I am going backamong the used cars. —they will serve the purpose and get. me there just the same.• Next, I hiked to the Implement Building. I thought I had a good outfit to work with at home, but, oh boy! when I got my hands on that spring -tooth scuffler in the Interna- tional Exhibit, and 'I learned that the mower main gears run in a bath of oil, doing away 'withso many little oil holes that I sometimes forget; and I learned the low power hat -inner - mill is now priced within the means of the smaller farmer; learning all I could about other machinery exhibits, I realized that the average farm is not well enough equipped to make farming profitable. From there, I went to see the pigs. I learned the Yorkshires, of which 129,108 have been registered, are the leading bacon breed, with the -Berk- shire a close second. As I studied the prize carlot pens and carcasses taken from them, I learned it would pay farmers to invest money in the better type of hog. In the horse barn I admired the different breeds, especially the black horses (Percherons) from Quebec. When 1 compared those horses with. that smooth running easy riding trac- tor I was looking at in the Cocicshutt Plow Co, exhibit, I learned that the horses are the cheapest power. In the Electrical Building, the Canada Power Company's display taught me the lighting system means fewer barn fires, and the electrical conveniences in the home mean much in the comfort and Health of hard- working farm women. Another interesting display was that of W. K. Kellogg; We boys who help sow and harvest corn and wheat learned how it is manufactured into healthful foods which come back into the homes to make children grow strong, mentally and physically. In the Coliseum, the Ontario Ag- ricultural College had an interesting exhibit of soils and Nobarb barley. Only farmers who have grown and worked with barley can realize the value of Nobarb or awnless barley. It items more will 'be grown. I could write a book on what 1 learned at the Exhibition, but only one thing more before I close. If you know of any one with twenty- five cents to invest itt business and pleasure combined, wanting 100 per cent. dividend, tell them from me to hold and put it into a ticket for the 1935 Cattadian National txhibition. Here's hoping they get as =eh out of it as I did. I remain, your sincerely, RUSSEL RUTTAN. (Age 16 years.) Mrs. M, Rattan, of Gorrie, wasal- so a winner of $10.00 in the prize for adults. THE SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON THE CHRISTIAN CITIZEN, (Armistice Day.) Sunday, Nov. 11.—Gal. 5:13-26. Golden Tekt: All they that take the sword shall. perish with the sword (Matt. 26:52. Christian liberty is a precious gift from God -but it can be misused, ev- en abused. Our chapter begins with the inspir- ed counsel: "Stand fast, therefore, in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free." When we are saved we are "under grace," and this means liberty to do whatever is according to God's will, and therefore whatever is right. But there may be things that are in themselves right, and that we can do safely, but that our •neighbor can- not do safely. One man may be able to walk safely along the edge of a precipice without getting dizzy and falling over; but if he knows some- one else is likely to follow his ex- ample and be killed, he must not use the liberty he has. So Paul writes: "For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an ocacsion to the flesh, but by love serve one another.". The law of love is even greater than the law of liberty. Paul contin- ues: "For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this: Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself." The true Christian is the best citi- zen. For Christianity demands that a man having put Christ first, then liv- es in the power of Christ unselfish- ly in behalf of others. The true Christian is loyal to the Government, obeying the "powers that be" (Rom. 13:1). A startling contrast is given in the rest of the chapter between "the lust of the flesh" and "the fruit of the Spirit." "The flesh" is the term used throughout the New Testament for the life of the natural or unsaved man, who is "dead in trespasses and sins," and whose "mind is enmity against God." • God gives us a true picture of ourselves in His Book, and at the same time offers us His Son as the Only One who can sage us from ourselves and from "the wages of sin" which is death. And here are some of "the works of the flesh", set forth by inspiration; adultery, fornication, uncleanliness, idolatry, hatred, wrath, strife, envy- ing, murders, drunkenness, revellings "arid such like." No matter how hon- orable and moral a life any unsaved man or woman is living before the world, the seed ofall these sins is in every one by nature, and is bound to bring forth fruit unto death in one form • or another. Paul adds the warning: "They which do such things shall' not inherit the kingdom of God." The contrast is then set forth in the nine characteristics of the life that is saved, wholly yielded to Christ, and lived by faith in His keeping power. "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long-suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, self-control: against such there is no law." It is plainly impossible for any man in his own strength to have these nine characteristics habitually appear- ing in his life. How then, can s&ich: a life be lived? Paul answers: "And they that are Christ's have crucified tate flesh with the affections and lusts." This sounds like an involved theological statement, but its mean- ing is simple. As Christ, bearing our sins, died to sin on the cross; so we, when we receive Christ as Saviour, are joined to Him and His death be- comes our death, His crucifixion our crucifixion; and that means our de- liverance from the bondage to sin which we all have by nature. As Paul writes elswhere in this Epistle (2:20): "I am crucified with Christ nevertheless I live; yet not I, but, Christ liveth in rne." Again in • this lesson, we read: "Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh." The word "Spirit" here means, not the human spirit, but the Holy Spirit. of God, who conies to live in the hear of ev- ery one who has received .Christ as Saviour. He can and does work mir- actilously inany lift that really trusts Him and He gives deliverance from. the power of sin, or "the That of the flesh." Love is the first part of the fruit of tete Spirit. It is the lack of this that has led to many tragic wars through the cctrturlca. Ire cantrast with the love of ones neighbor, whc- their` individually or nationally, Paul warns "But if ye bite and devour one another, take 'heed that ye be not �'� -� ''y'�-••ate-" �, AIT* 13 . .Whcrit. your L PO E does for you... iDSummons help when fire breaks out. noCcolls the doctor in sudden illness.

Come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members?" (James 4:1). If all men were true Christians, born again by faith in Christ as Sav- iour and wholly yielded to Him as Lord, there could. be na more war. But Christ tells us plainly that "wars and rumors of war" will continue un- til the end of the age, when He, the Prince of Peace, has promised to come again and establish peace . on earth. In the meantime every true ruler should do everything in their power 'to prevent war and end war, when this is possible with righteous- ness. On the other hand God makes it plain throughout the Bible that war is not necessarily unrighteous, but, as in the Old Testament wars that He commanded and directed, His own righteousness sometimes requires that war be waged against incorrigible am - righteousness. But the time is corn- ing when righteousness shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea" (Isa. 11:9). SPECIAL LOW FARES REMEMBERANCE DAY Special, first-class fares will be of- fered by the Canadian National and Canadian Pacific Railways over the Rememberance Day week -end, when the low rate of a single fare and a quarter for the round trip will be in effect between all stations in Canada and certain destinations in the. United States adjacent to the international bonder, it was announced by C. F. Riddell, chairman of the Canadian Passenger association. This rate will be good to leave starting points at any time between 12 noon, Friday, November 9, until 12 o'clock, noon, Monday, November 12, with a return limit good to leave destination not later than midnight, Tuesday, Nov- ember 13. This will afford passengers plenty of time to attend Remembrance.. Day services with their friends.: Faster Way Found to Relieve Headaches NOW PAIN OFTEN RELIEVED IN MINUTES'!
