SHOP IN WINGHAM
Recently in Walkerton police court
a. young man was charged with ob
taining money under false pretenses.
He is said to have obtained deposits
on men’s clothing and the orders, it
is alleged, were never filled.
The public are very gullible at
times. In every town in Ontario are
merchants who carry quality merch
andise and who are responsible cit
izens, but it takes an incident similar
to the above to bring this message
home to many.
Our local merchants deserve the
patronage of the public. They carry
a fine line of merchandise and sell at
prices which are fair and the custom
ers are assured of satisfaction as they
are dealing with permanent citizens
who can be trusted.
Patronize our merchants and
are assured of satisfaction.

STOP AT RAILWAY CROSSINGS
In Quebec it is the law that all
motor vehicles stop at all railway
crossings so that accidents will be
lessened. In Ontario this law is not in
force, but one is supposed to approach
a railway crossing at not more than
20 miles an hour. Few observe this
regulation. Recently at Delhi, five
Kent County Belgians met death in a
level-crossing accident. The jury at
the inquest in this case recommend
ed that legislation be enacted that all
vehicles stop before crossing a rail
road. This is a sensible and timely
suggestion and one that may well be
put into effect. In this age of speed
many fail to observe stop signs,
law should see that they do.

a
very lady-like manner this Spring.
The ice went out very nicely and
floods were of small proportions.
When we read of the heavy dam
age done in other places by the
floods, we must consider ourselves
very fortunate in this respect.
Last Saturday we had a couple of
hours to spare between trains at Port
Hope, which was the scene of much
damage by floods this year. As we
walked along the main street one
could not notice much evidence of
the. disaster but it was not necessary
to go far to see some of the havoc
caused when the river went wild.
Large cakes of ice, some four feet
thick, are still lying a long piece from
the river bank, where they were car
ried as the water swept through the
streets. Some buildings near the riv
er were badly damaged. One had its
side ripped open and was filled with
large blocks of ice.
Two buildings were washed out in
to the lake. One store on the main
street was badly crushed and on Fri
day night when the wtaer again rose
the remainder of this building (two
stores) washed away.
The damage at Port Hope was
great, but, of course, was nothing
^compared to. other places. We cer-
-tainly should realize the fact that we

THE SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON
JESUS INVITES ALL PEOPLE.
Sunday, April 5—Luke 14.
Golden Text:
Come; for all things are now ready.
—(Luke 15: 17b.)
A popular question, nowadays, is as
to what the coming religion will be.
But the coming religion is already
here. Some one has been keen en
ough to point out that Christianity is
the most “coming” religion the world
has ever known or ever will know, be
cause the invitation “come” is the
greatest characteristic of Christianity.
The verb “come” rings out through
the entire Bible.
The first time the word occurs in
the Bible as an invitation is when the
Lord said to Noah, “Come thou and
all thy house into the ark” (Gen. 7:1).
It was God’s invitation to Noah and
his family to be saved, as God’s ne
cessary judgment upon sin was about
to strike the whole world in the flood.
In the last chapter of the Bible the
invitation “come” is repeaed over and
over again: “And let him that is
athirst come.” Then, at the very end
of Revelation, the Lord Jesus Christ
says, “Surely, I come quickly.” And
the Church responds: “Even so, come,
Lord Jesus.” Yes, Christianity is the
“coming” religion.
So our lesson title, “Jesus Invites
All People,” is another expression of

this coming religion. “All” means
universal. And the word “universal”
is a popular one in religious parlance.
We hear a good deal about “the uni
versal fatherhood of God" and “the
universal brotherhood of man.” But
we must stop just here, for the Bible
knows nothing of any such universal
fatherhood or brotherhood. The Bi
ble plainly shows that God is not the
Father of all men, but only of those
who choose to become His children
by faith in His Son as their Saviour,
It shows that there is no. such thing
as any universal spiritual brotherhood
of man, for such brotherhood exists
only among those who have been
chosen to become “all one in Christ
Jesus."
The Gospel is universal in its in
vitation, God is universal in His in
vitation to all men to come unto Him
and be saved. “Look unto Me,”-God
says, “and be saved, all the ends of
the earth; for I am God, and there is
none else" (Isa. 45:22). “For God so
loved the world, that He gave His
only begotten Son, that whosoever
believeth in Him should not perish,
but have everlasting life" (John 3:
16).
The invitation is universal. But the
response to this universal invitation
is sadly limited. The parable told by
the Lord Jesus in this lesson makes
that lamentably plain.
A certain man prepared a great
banquet, and sent out a great many
invitations. Then when the time for
the feast came he sent his servant to
those who had already received the
invitation, with this message: “Come;
for all things are now ready.”
There is the word “Come” again.
And did they all with one accord
come? Here is the startling fact:
“And they all with one consent be
gan to make excuse."
One man had just “bought a piece
of ground,” and must needs go and
see it. “I pray thee have me excus
ed”, he sent word.
Another had bought five yoke of
oxen, and must try them out: “I pray
thee have me excused.”
Another had just married a wife,
“and therefore I cannot come.”
Yes, the Lord - Jesus “invites qll
people,” and very few accept His in
vitation. Yet He invites men to a
great feast of good things, for both
now and hereafter, for time and eter
nity.
The servant made his report, and
the master of the house was angry.
He told his servant to go out quick
ly into the streets and lanes of the
city “and bring in hither the poor, and
the maimed, and the halt, and the
blind.”
This was done—and they accepted
the invitation. “Yet there is room,"
reported the servant.
Another command: “Go out into
the highways and hedges, and compel
them to come in, that My house may
be filled.” The word “compel” is not
to be understood literally, for God
forces no one to accept salvation. But
“compel" has the sense of urging,
pleading, entreating. So the great
missionary Paul said: “Now then we
are ambassadors for Christ, as though
God did beseech you by us: we pray
you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconcil
ed to God” (2 Cor. 5:20).
Those who beg to be excused when
God invites them to accept eternal life
will be taken at their word: God will
excuse them for all eternity from
coming into His presence. The Lord
Jesus made this plain when He con
cluded His parable with the words:
“For I say unto you, That none of
those men which "were bidden shall
taste of My supper.”
Eternal life is God’s free gift, to
be received only as a gift, without
money and without price. But, hav
ing received God’s great gift of His
Son as our Saviour, it costs some-
‘thing, it costs everything, to become
His disciple and. really follow Him.
The Lord went on and made this very
plain. We must be willing to turn
away, if necessary, from father and
mother, and wife and children, broth
ers and sisters, even from our own
life, if we would be His disciples.
The cross is the sign of death and
the place of death. The Lord Jesus
Christ went to the cross, bearing the
death-penalty of our sins, that we
might have His life, the only eternal
life. We must die unto sin and self,
by accepting His death in our stead.
Why? “And whosoever doth not bear
his cross, and come after Me,
not be My disciple.”

of control rests in extreme care and

Performance
CHEVROLET uses the famous Valve-in-Head engine design
because every engineering test shows that the Valve-in-Head
principle results in greater power—more flashing pick-up—finer
hill-climbing ability.
But.that’s only half the story. For this same Valve-in-Head engine is
the secret of the big savings on gasoline and oil that Chevrolet
owners boast about. The fact is, this principle results in more than
a 10% fuel saving as compared to the conventional design.

tracts, dried lavender leaves, cayenne
pepper, black pepper, allspice, salt,
borax, the mere sprinkling of evil
smelling substances means little in
the gay life of a moth. In the know
ledge of how and when to sprinkle
lies the justification for extraneous
aids. This knowledge may be obtain
ed by reading the circular “Clothes
Moths and Methods of Controlling
them,” which can be obtained from
the Publicity and extension Branch,
Dominion Department of Agriculture,
Ottawa.
A moth bag does not kill moths
but it does stop the entrance of moths
from the outside and if it is absolute
ly hole-proof and air tight. Winter
clothing will soon be put away for
the summer, and, unless woollens,
furs, and other garments are not thor
oughly cleaned before being stored,
it is only asking for trouble. Withza
forgotten garment and a nice quiet
dark place, the small caterpillars of
the moth will work incredible havoc.
All woollen clothes should be wash
ed, dried, carefully brushed, and aired,
preferably in the sun, and furs should
be aired and thoroughly brushed be
fore being put away in bags or other
air-tight containers. If clothes are to
be stored in drawers, they should be
wrapped in heavy unbroken paper —
newspaper of several thicknesses will
do — and the edges of the paper seal
ed with gummed-paper strips. Where
there is an opening a moth will find
it. With regard to carpets and furni
ture covering, brushing or the cons
tant use of the vacuum cleaner is an
effective preventive.
Two species of moth — the web
bing clothes moth and the case-mak
ing clothes moth — occur in Canada,
the webbing species being the more
common. They are seen in largest
numbers in spring and summer, but
the winged moths do not feed. Dur

The neck is a cut rich in meat
extractives which give meat its fine
flavor and is usually used Tor stews,
patties, and broths. The shoulder
gives delicious, large, meaty chops,
and roasts, while the shank is a small
er cut which can be roasted, stewed
or used for broth.
The breast is most suitable for
roasting and stewing, or may be used
in a boneless lamb roll made up from
shoulder, breast, and shank. Any des

form to make a splendid piece of sol

Even when the day’s shopping has1
considerably flattened the pocket
book, it is nice to know that you may
have an inexpensive yet tender cut
of fresh lamb for the family dinner.
In this respect, lamb is a most ac
commodating meat and any cut, no
matter how little it costs, may be
prepared in a variety of appetizing
ways.
It is true that some cuts of Iamb
are higher in price than others, which
is partly due to the greater demand
for these cuts. Therefore, if you are'
interested in saving • on the family
budget, it is wise to select the less-
demanded cuts of lamb. You are sac
rificing nothing in flavor, tenderness,
or nutritive value; you are merely
taking advantage of your knowledge
of lamb possibilities over the “hit-and
miss” shopper who thinks of fresh
lamb only in terms of legs and loin, .
and your reward will be an apprec
iable saving in dollars and cents.
Most of the forequarter cuts of
fresh lamb belong to the economical
group; shoulder, breast, shanks, neck,
as well as trimmings suitable for
stews and ground meat dishes.
