Bruce Pres- bytery's' allocation; of $17,200 has resulted in only $3,784 being raised to date, though there are pledges for a tfew more hundred dollars. He urged completion of this task by September. • • Fifteen charges . in Bruce presby- tery show an increase in missionary and maintenance givings, the Rev. E. L. Beech of Ripley, retorted for this committee. Last year $14,068.21 was raised. An appalling feature is that this is the fifth consecutive, year in which there has been a de- cline in the support of this import- ant branch of the church's endeav- our. The committee suggested more information on mission work be pro- vided and •that eachcongregatio be. canvassed. The • repor`t" of the 'pastdi;ai rela-tions committee, presented by G. B. Clarke of Kincardine, evoked warm discussion. The recommendation was made that ministers leaving a charge' ' be paid in full: Fully fifty per :cent of Bruce Presbytery charges • are not doing this .Mr. 'Clarke claimed. A great degree of frankness between .minister 'and congregation, the exercise of more consideration for each other and a fair trial for the system of appoint- ments now. in vogue were urged. Another recommendation was that Ministers and congregations be supplied • with a list of .vacancies. Arising out of this report was • a motion that presbytery refuse to in - duet a minister into a charge unless the last minister has been' paid his salary in full and there is a guar- antee • of monthly payment ,for the incoming year.

"Cupboard Quislings„ 1 Is that too hard a name for people who selfishly lay in unnecessary stocks of clothes or food, or other goods for fear of shortages? No ! The name is not too hard, even though it may be earned through thoughtlessness. For ing' reality they are doing, in a petty, mean way, what the Quie• ling does in the open. Anyone who buys more than is necessary for current needs- • - Is breaking• his country's law for personal advantage. Is `betraying his loyal neighbours and those who are not so well offai 'lie.. , .. Is, in effect, 'depriving our fighting men of the mutations and supplies they must have to defend us. Is hindering our war effort and: helping our enemiei. �n Loyal citizens avoid putting unnecessary and abnormal strains on our factories. In time of war. loyal citizens do not spend one dollar more on civilian goods than is. absolutely necessary for current needs. The law provides for fines up to $5,000 and imprison- ment up to two years for hoarding; and° hoarding is just another word for unnecessary selfish buying. In cases where, it is advisable for you to buy In advance of your immediate requirements such as your next . season's Coal supply -, you will be encouraged to do so by direct - statement from responsible officials. - THE IVARTIiVIE PRICES AND TRADE BOARD OTTAWA.
