This transformed a discour- aged and well-nigh defeated group of followers into a courageous, ag- gressive and victortoue compaes. "Christ is risen!" was the watch- word of the early church. This was the crucial part of Paul's preaching (a. 1 Cos. 15: -8). The vision of the risen Lord was the mighty fact that converted Paul from an oppon- ent to a believer. No one can doubt that the apostles and early Christians believed and taught that Christ was risen. This is the first great fact, impressed again and again during those forty days. And one lesson which it enforced 'them and from that time onward, is that death does not destroy person- ality. The risen Christ was the same loving, patient, forgeving teacher, saviour and friend after the exper- ience of death that He had been be- fore. A succession of incidents proved this: the interview with Mary, the patience with the doubting Thomas, the iestruction given to two down -hearted men on the way to Emaus, the re -commissioning of Pe- ter. Christ was unchanged. He is "the same, yesterday, to -day and forever:" But if death had not pow- er to change the personality of Jes- vs then we may believe also that it is equally impotent in every other case. Our beloved dead are not at once changed, whatever may happen afterward in the educational exper- ience of the future life. Life is etill growth and progress. SAP FLOW BEGINS IN THE DISTRICT Sturdy Maples Respond ,to Warm Sun and Sap Buckets Are Being Filled The myriad sap buckets of Huron County and neighboring counties have at last began to fill with the • trickling fluid which is the raw mat- erial for maple sugar, a product for which Ontario is famous. Winter's grip has relaxed, after delaying the maple sugar season virtually one month. While the mercury tumbled night after night to below zero and many feet of snow carpeted the map- les, tapping was out of the question. Last year sap was running merrily round about the commencement of March. But a few days ago zephys of spring commenced to thaw out the hearts of the maples. They dol- ed out their life -blood slowly but surely into the buckets affixed at their sides. With the resurrection of spring throughout the land, the maple nee - tar has begun to flow in a steady stream and already Ailments ilave made their appearance in tha mhals of the local express .company.

In The Legislature AlFasa 1 The week in the Legislature was the most exciting of the session and precipated that usual terrible rush which eeems to mark the closing days of each meetina ..ef Parliament. Premier Ferguson, backed by a huge majority, has ridden rough shod over everything arid will continue to do so next week to fleish the session be- fore Good Friday. Once again this week the Conservative following were whipped into line and the prov- ince saw the amusing episode of a score or more Conservatives voting against the thing they have been ad- vocating in and out of season since the Ferguson govermnent was elect- ed. The feature of the week, of course, was the amendment moved by R. L. Brackin to the motion to go into supply in the budget debate. Mr. Brackin moved for a govern— ment sale of liquor policy, The vote on it came at 9 o'clock Thursday morning after the House had been M session since 3 o'clock the prev- ious afternoon. It constituted the longest sitting of the House in rec- ent years. The Premier lashed the party whip and all the "wet" Con- servatives except four, voted against their own pet scheme.. The Liberals divided exactly as would have been predicted months ago. Those with "wet" riding voted for their motion. W. E. N. Sinclair, Liberal Leader, voted against the amendment as it is not in accord with the declared at- titude of the Liberal party of allow- ing the people to change the liquor policy oie the province by their votes. Outstanding from the long sitting and the vote on the amendment was the review of provincial financial af- MIIIMMEN1Wild•SIBAIMMITMEITter fairs by Harold Fisher, Liberal finan- mat critic. Mr. Fisher took some of the bloom off the rosy budget pre- sented by Proviacial Treasurer Price, He showed that Ontario was not yet paying its way and had little hope of doing so until the government had either the courage to cut expendituee or raise more revenue. Both of these courses, he pointed out, would make enemies and as this govern- ment was guided entirely by politic- al expediency, such a course was un- desirable to it. He also pointed out that it was idle to talk of debt re- tirement when the budget was not balanced. A man might as well say he was living within his means when he could not pay his rent, as for On- tario to say that it had a balance whorl it had no money with which to meet its interest payments on debt. In the public accounts committee the Conservative majority again showed itself as none too eager to pry too far into suspicious attain, The move to trace some more of the now famous "legalsa or thousand dollar bins which were so much dis- cussed when the affairs of Peter Smith, former provincial treasueer, were being discussed, was blocked by the Conservatives. Mr. Sinclair complained again and again about the conduct of the committee but his protests were in vain as far as the work of the committee was con- cerned, It was brought out, however, that goods bought from the Jas. Lyons Fuel and Supply Company at Sault Ste. Marie, had been resoldby the purchaser back to the department over which Mr. Lyons presided.

We have always been and always will be boosters of the "Buy at Heine" slogan, but it does get under the skin to walk into a store or some place of business and find the mer chant or the businessman using sta- tionery or other printed matter pur- chased from some city firm. If our business men would rather patronize outside concerns, why wail about oth- er citizens of the town doing it, and expect the loyal paper to condemn it as disloyal to the community. This boosting for home business should not be one-sided.—Kincardine Re- porter. IS THERE A HELL? The newly -appointed pastor of a negro church faced a large audience when he rose to deliver bie sermon on the burning question: "Is there a hell?" "Bredren," he said, "de Lord made de world go round like a ball." "Amen," cried the congregation. "And the Lord made two axles for de world to go round on and He put one axle at de north pole and one at de souf pole." "Amen," cried the congregation. "An' de Lord put a lot of oil and grease in de centre of de world so as to keep the axles well greased and oiled." "Amen," cried the congregation. "An' den a lot of sinners digs wells in 'Pennsylvania, and steal de Lord's oil and grease. An' de dig wells in Bothwell, Petrone, Oil Springs, Kentucky, Mexico, Essex and Texas and steal the Lord's oil and grease, and dem axles is going to get hot An' den dat will be hell, bredren, dat will be hell." contract in Northern Ontario bad NatIonal not gone to the lowest tender. et. 9 ask)fize Bank "Let us get a sound, impartial opinion on this problem of ours—the Bank must have had many similar experi- ences to deal with.
