Just recently we observed ,Mother's '.Day and on June 16, we will have the great pleasure of in some way re- membering our Father. Very few fathers are not willing to give first plaee in the affections of the family to Mother. This is of course • quite natural for it is really the Mother who has the greater part of the care of 'the children from their infancy un- til the time they .are old enough to toddle around and be a companion to to feel that you have neglected your .daddy. duty as far as teaching the love of There are many instances when a Chiast to those whom God has given .;Father is a real help mate to his wife you is concerned. Fathers, as the in the care of the children, and it head of your home, let nothing stand .makes the home so much more haiaPY in your way but keep on praying that, when the father feels it is his duty, God will lead you to do everything .and ;privilege, to take part of the in your power to invite Christ to be •responsibility of the children when he the Head of your home. ,carries :home at night. At times, he says, "Oh, I' have worked all day and Fathers, are you making compan. when.1.have finished I am' too tired ions of your sons and daughters? to be. bothered with the children."

Then There are indeed many boys and perhaps more than anything else you girls who think everything dad does will know where he is. If you are is quite alright and they will stand the right kind of a father, in later up for him against all odds. It would years you will have no regrets over do some fathers a great deal of good the time you have spent with him. if they could hear the conversation There are times when he will have carried on between their son and some plans of one kind or another and will other fathers son. Euch one has the come to you with the question: "Dad, best and most clever dad in the world. would you like to help me with this?" In days gone by it was considered Is your answer going to be: "No, very undignified to hear a boy call have not got time tobe bothered his father "Dad", but now it seems with it, go on out and play" or "Yes, to be a real mark of affection. on if you just wait a minute I will When children are taken to the altar and given to God, as a rule both father and mother take the re- sponsibility of bringing up the child, which God has given them, to love and honor Him, So often in these days both forget all about that charge and if one of them does remember it is usually the mother. Do parents realize that God will hold thein re- sponsbile for presenting that child to Him in accordance with the vows which they took on his behalf ? It is a serious question and one which must be faced sooner or later. In the majority of homes the father leaves for his work in the morning and there is no prayer--nffe,::ed to God asking for Hs guidance, not only for himself, but also for his wife and family. There are times when it seems difficult to arrange morning devotions, but if one wants to it can be arranged. The evening prayers can be held while the family is still seated at the dinner table. Fathersl it is well to realize what a great privilege is yours as you lead your family in the reading of -God's Word and in committing your fainly to God. In the days which lie ahead you will have a feeling that you have done your best to present an unbroken family before the throne of God. Not only that but the family will always be glad to help you, we will work it out toegther." The future of your son depends on the interest you take in him in his youth. If your attitude is in accordance with the first answer, in all probability you will live to rue the day and whose fault will it be? Yours entirely. If your answer is the second one, your son will grow up with a great deal of respect for you. He will come to you with his prob- lems, not only as a child, but as a youth and a man. Many a boy stands in Court and is spendieg years in a penitentiary today because he has not been fortunate enough to have had a father who made a "pal" of him. Fathers, what are you going to do for your son? As he honors you on Father's Day, if you have not tried to guide him in the way of God, determine that }ou will not only re- eonsecrate your life to Jesus Christ but with God's help you will do every- thing in your power, even though at times it may be an inconvenience to yourself to make a companion of your; son and daughter and will endeavor to ; lead hire or her to Christ. You will never regret it. A little child was going along the street one, day with his father. He slipped and fell. In spite of the father's request that he should take his father's band he tried to go along remember the happy hours spent-him'elf but again fell, this time hurt-' WINS AIR AWARD: Grantly. Ci McConachie, general manager of Can- adian racier, Air Lines for western lines, and a pioneer in Far North aviation, who has been awarded the McKee Trophy for 1945, for bis outstanding contribution to 'commercial flying is Canada: ing himself. The father said: "Now. Jim, please let me take hold of your hand and if you slip I can hold you up. The little one then did as he was requested awl all went well. On Father's Day, those of us whose fatheris still with us will insome way show that we love and respect him. Yes, we can love our father with the same love we bestow on our Mother but do we acknowledge that We love our Heavenly Father. No matter how our earthly father loves and cares for us, he can never do for us what our Heavenly Father does. He has not the patience God has with us and yet how little time we spend even in thanking Him for His mar- vellous kindness towards us, what a privilege it is for us to be able to call Him, Father! Will we not to -clay open our Bible at the sixth chapter of Matthew and read it through paying particular attention to "The Lords Prayer" that beautiful example of prayer which Jesus gave to His disciples. We can make it the basis of our communica- tion to One Who will be all that our Earthly Father is to us and a great deal more. Some one has said "I don't know !what electricity really is, but it is surely something. We think of it as a distinct thing, but we cannot mail a sample. Faith is a real thing too, but can I mail it? No it's a sort of power, like Electricity, and I can handle only what it produces, that is the effect of its work" so it is with God's love. We cannot definitely say just what it is, but we know whether we have it or not and we also know that we are alone responsible if we are not entitled to it. 1 I love to think that God appoints My portion day by day; Events of life are in His hand And I would only say Appoint them in Thee own good time And in Thine own best tve", 'iPEG" TWO VACANCIES FILLED LUOI(NOW :Two vacancies on the high school staff have been filled with the appointemnt of Miss Marg- aret McKenzie, Thamesville, and Glenn H.
