SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON
GOLDEN TEXT—Thou' shalt love
thy neighbor as thyself. --Rom. 13:9,
THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING
Time -Paul wrote. Romans. in A: D.
59, in the middle of his third mission-
ary tour.
Place—The Epistle was written t
Corinth, the chief commercial city of
Greece..
Obedience to Law
The Church never ceased to praise
and admire, even whereit slew het-
the
erthe imperial justice of Rome, her apol7
ogists, even when pleading' before it
for their lives, turn to it as to a friend
they appeal to it from the blind fury
of the mob, with the proud assurance
that it cannot, if it be true to itself,
be against them, The following pass-
age, with the exception of Christ's
command that His followers "render
to Caesar the things that at -e Caes-
ar's," : is perhaps the strongest ex-
pression of this Christian loyalty to
law in all the New Testament,.
Let every soul be in subjection to
the higher powers. By "pobvers'•' is
meant authorities, rulers. By "high'-
er" is' meant "supreme," not higher
than others. "Every' soul" - means
"every person." "Subjection" implies`
no degrading slavery, but inecely the
proper obedience that a subject owes
his sovereign or a soldier his superior
officer. For there is no power but of
God. God is the source of authori. y.
He is law, He ispower, and every
human law and power is ,a part of the
reign of law which God has iiistittrt-
ed, And the powers that be are or-
dained of God "The powers that be"

scorned.
For rulers are not a 'terror, to the,
good work, but to the evil. Paul, of
course, would not deny that a Nero
was a terror to the good far more
than to the evil; but he is speaking of
rulers in general, and especially of the
institution of law and order, whichis
always, as an institution, on the side
of the good and opposed to the evil

member the uniformly high characte

Qf course every citizen would be gia
to be free from fear; fear is one of tit
most weakening and miserable feel
ings. Paul would have us reverent
laws and rulers, but not tremble be
fore them servilely. Do that which is
good,, and thou shalt have praise frog
the same, The rulers' will commend
good citizens, and shower upon thein
the honors of the' state. So far will
a good man be from fear of magi-
strates that he will be under' obliga-
tions to them.
For he is a minister of God to thee
for good. The "power" . is personi-
fied. The ruling power is Ito tyrant
to the good, but a tli.oughful and help-
ful servant, protecting him from harm
and adding to his life many comforts
and utilities, But if thou do that
which is evil, be afraid, That is, you
have good reason to be .afraid, fear
will become you, will fit your case,

You wouldn't

some other sections that will wa'rran
consideration. Careful attention
should be given this year to the prat-
tei of reconstructing the Bayfield'
Bridge—this may be the last year'
that a 6o per cent. subsidy will be
available which situation will have an II
niportant bearing on the case. This r
ntprovennent will involve 'a.n expendi- )
ure of about $29,000,00 of which $17,-1
00.00 would bepaid by the Province.
The fill over Galbraith's Bridge in
Goderich Township, should be widen-
d this year, and the dangerous Gull-
y ' Bridge given attention. The fill
at the bridge at Dunlop in Colborne
Township, should be widened, Manny.
titer such points should receive at-
ention, and a number of small brid-
ges and culverts reconstructed. Manyld guard fences are in a dilapidated
onditicn and should be rebuilt, if
ossibleth,
For e removal of ice and snow
lin the spring and for general work; I
I would recommend the purchase of a •
i heavy road plow for each patrol sec-
tion of the Highway. Ordinary farm
aws are not sufficiently strong for
is •work, and each year . many are
alien. Not much other ntac.hinery
