Those with eyes that see are of a new and better life. Every morning'shows evidence that dur­ ing the hours of quiet forces are coming to new expression. Those who fail. to recognize such a self-evident fact will continue to slumber when the new normalcy and new prosperity are at the flood. No' day and no period is a repetition of any of its predecessors. The methods that are winning this minute are not processes of yes­ terday.. Tomorrow will differ from today. There will be the same atmosphere, The constituents of a-ir and sea and land will be the same. Men will differ in their tastes and their ambitions. Circum­ stances to outward appearance may ibe the same but in reality the situation will be quite new, demanding fresh and vital adaptation on the part of everyone who would confront them victoriously. Already serious-minded business men are talking of discard­ ining railroads and many canals. Radial railways bid fair to go into discard. Farming as it is now carried on 'by individual ag­ riculturists on their small holdings is seen to becoming a practice of the past, soon to become as quaint as the oldfashioned spinning wheel and wool carding- outfit or the ancient one horse shay. The _ chain store hangs out ths warning light of a new curve in merchan-' dising. Surgical operations that were rare and'aweinspiring ten years ago are the commonplaces of today. Women now walk with assurance the paths their, sisters trod with beating hearts a decade ago. Progress is in evidence everywhere. What then? The man who is worth his salt is up and doing. If the present stringency has shut one door "on him, already he has opened % half dozen other doors and . is investigating a. dozen other channels where-by the free human spirit may come to its own. Like the wise fisherman, he is mending his nets, meanwhile studying hit best to find a more excellent way that he knows is to' entered upon for the seeking. ft goal of these present aware 'of the stirring * *ft * * * « Jj: TOM DOBBIN SAYS! “Tom Dobbin in the London Free Press says:” “There’s little use for a farmer to try to muck along with poor stuff. Inferior cattle and inferior grain and inferior soil are means to his destruction. He must cull, and the only method of culling that counts is the way of actual measurement, weighing and test­ ing. Farmers in other parts of ,the= y&orld are up and doing their ' very utmost. Some of them a,re specially favored in the' way of climate. We can’t hope for ,a look-in if we’re indifferent while other farmers are -ih dead earnest every waking hour of the day every day in the year. There are a whole lot of wasteful ways and . slipshod methods we’U need to forget.” “That sounds pretty stiff!’” We’re up against a stiff situation. I see no crows flying across the landscape with prosperity in their mouths. I do not see any class of people who are-going to do the farmer’s work for him. But I do see nations’ doing their utmost to further the interests of their farmers. Can you blame them when their farmers there are so willing to help themselves? Further, I see things becoming stead­ ily worse for the Canadian farmer unless he shakes himself wide awake. He must see himself a. competitor in a business world where every day the standard is rising and the workers are becom­ ing more numerous. There's no occasion tor despair. There’s every reason for steady work and for the hardest of thinking, no time for the farmer to be asleep at the switch.” ZION * Communion services were held at the morning service on Sunday last conducted .by the pastor, Rev.

Do you intend that your dependent .loved ones shall look tp you for the necessities of life now, but only for so long as you are alive to enjoy them, too? Do you intend that they shall look to you for protection now, and afterwards fail them when they need that protection most? Of course, you don’t. But your depen­ dents cannot pay the monthly bills pn the income you might have earned IF—-. Therefore, while you are insurable, give them the safeguard of a monthly cheque under one of the income plans of the Confederation Life Association, This in­ come cannot be diminished, diverted or lost through unwise investment.
