CANNOT BLOT OUT RELIGION The story that Stalin has started a ne wdrive against religion in Russia for the purpose of blotting it out seems to come direct from Moscow. If the statements in the dispatch are correct, Stalin still has a lot to learn about fellow human beings in spite of his long experience with dictatorial control over a hundred and fifty million of them. " •Individuals sometimes are able to smother belief iu God. Considerable numbers may neglect religion 'as they are doing today In this country. And some races are more given to piety, than others. But actual destruction of the re- ligious inatinot in the human heart and of the religious impulse in hu- man action 4s beyond the power of any dictator, any government or any propagandist. it would be as practical to try to destroy the am - petite or food, Ftirthermore, , the religious In- stinct as a compelling force lu life is apt to be strongest among the 'rely sort of people Stalin purposes using for his experimnet. The prosperous and hominy and those who have many means of mundane diversion often neglect God and would like to forget Rini (which doesn't meau they dis- believe'In Hint); but. those who are needy and oppressed and lead drag - and circumscribed lives, are apt to have a lively and persistent im- pulse to turn for consolation and escape to things which are unseen. It is true, 01 course, that among such people there sometimes are re- bellions against some particular es- tablished form of religion, but that does not mean desertion of religion itself nor resort to the atheism Stalin dreams of. 13ven the Witchcraft of the Mid- dle Ages` was in a hideous, evil and perverted way of confession of the truth of religion, It aoknow- ledged the existence of Diety, dt is one thing for an individual or even for a nation,to rebel against God; it is a far different= thing to deny that He exists, No considerable 'part of mankind has ever successfully clone the latter for any considerable time. and Stalin never will be able to make the Russians do it. C�It_ tLys4 GUESSING AT FUTURE WEATHER A large part of the American continent has this year. enjoyed what is everylvhere acknowledged tie a very pleasant .autumn says the Sarnia Obsenver. Within the last few days, however, there have tom signs of important weather changes that presage the 'onset of winter. Practically up to niid-Nov- -ember we have had tsm,p'eraturee that approached summer tempera- tures and has been enjoyable. It has resulted in some saving of fuel, but merchants complain that the rnseasoneflo Wanntth was disastrous to their -business, that it was Int' possible to eon dura, evereoatal, heavy footgear and other commodi- ties for which, normally, there is a nett ill late September and October. That is a dasammoinming condi Lion for merchants' w'ho Invest in goods tht are especially applicable tc autumn business, but it involves a rials that Yammers are compelled to take in all their operations, year after year, so that the merchant who Is feeling down over the blow that this unusually warm fall has dealt trim, will now be more inclin- ed -to sympathize with his agricui- turel neighbor who -is' so helpless against the vagaries of weather. It is not lively that exceptionally mild weather will continue for long now, 'In fact; when the current drop In temperature has moderated to some extent, as it is fairly sure to do, we may expect that there will be a rather rapid movement into the pre -winter conslttions- of frost and intemrlttent _snowfalls tat are nor- mal at- this season. In any event, it is now necessary to make all the preparations for a climatic change in weather, Householders will find that there is considerable work to be done to make the premises weather -tight and snug, anal it will he found profitable to exercise some diligence inthatdirection, for, after this deligh'bfully mild spell that has been a protracted summer, it might he that there will be some severity in the first touches- of winter. That is not to be regarded as a predic- tion, for of all futile enterprises, Ghat of undertaking to forecast the weather, is the least reliable. NOTE AND COMMENT It is said that British prime min- isters live longer than they did a century ago. Or is it that it only seems longer? When Japan talks about forming an Asiatic League ft looks as if she were getting .ready for the world series, Bancroft reports a nightly visit from a bear. It must be that all the villagers are hunting in distant field's. It is not too late perhaps to issue general reminder about the desirability of early 'Christmas shopping, Mr. Ilepburn Days that British morale has broken clown. It looks as if the Nazis have the same idea. A straw vote taken in Toronto named Sir F,ederick Ranting as Canada's greatest man. And that comes closer to being accurate than most votes of that kind.

In the fiercest animals, such as the 11011 or tiger, these spines are very well develop- ed. They are frequently found pro- jecting up for an eighth of an inch or more, withvery sharp points or edges. While the mouth is relaxed the tongue is soft and smooth, but when the animei is excited to tike fighting pitch, the spines become rigid. The tongue at such times resembles a fine steel currycomb.
