SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON December 17 CHRISTIAN LIVING AT ITS BEST Galatians 5:22-6:10. GOLDEN TEXT—If we live by the Spirit, •by the , Spirit let us s;1so walk. Galatians 8:25. Fruit of the Spirit "By their fruit ye shall know them" were the words of Jesus, and in the lesson today we find Paul writing.to the Galatians about the fruit of the spirit -filled life. A. fruit tree to bear true fruit must be a graft from a particular type of tree, and if we are to bear true fruit we too must have grafted into us the life of Christ. This takes place on our acceptance of Jesus as Lord and Saviour. The transformation which takes place on the inside when we are born again, is soon quite notice- able on the outside by the fruit we bear. The fruit of the spirit is the !neat need of the world today. Love, joy, peace, longsufferfng, gentleness, goodness, faith, meek- ness, temperance: against such . there is no law." If we all were believers in the Lord Jesus, and bearing the fruit of the• new lift In Christ, there would be no need for laws. Victory Over The Flesh Those who are in Christ no long- er desire the temporal satisfaction of the flesh, for the sinful nature and old desires were crucified with Christ. The believer lives in the spirit, and is to walk in the spirit. The law which required obedience for life and righteousness, brought about much pride and vain glory. Faith in Christ humbles and pro- motes a spirit of lowliness and tol- erance. Paul calls upon the Galatians to love their brothers and if one,corn- rnit an offence, to forgive him in love, bearing in mind that they too might be tempted and fail. Jesus said to love our neighbor as our- self, and if we have this love shed abroad in our hearts we would gladly bear one another's burdens. As God Sees Us How easy it is for us to laecome puffed up when prosperity comes sur way. We may feel that we are better than our poor neighbor. Paul writes that we deceive our- selves thinking that we are some- thing when we are nothing. Let its consider ourselves as God sees sus, rather than according to our own thoughts; prove every word and deed with God's standard, for wore day we must stand before the judgment seat of Christ. We cannot fool God, so let us not deceive ourselves by thinking so. "Whatsoever a man soweth that shall he also reap." There is no exception, regardless of what we may think or hope. If we sow to the flesh, yielding to the desires of the natural man, we will reap cor- ruption. However, if we sow to the spirit, walking in the light of God's word, we shall reap eternal life. Harvest time seems a long way off from spring plowing, but in due time it arrives. May we not grow weary in well doing, know- ing that if we faint not, a time of :reaping will comae. Take advan- lege of every opportunity of doing good, and especially to our broth- ers and sisters in Christ.

Women As Good Workers As Men In Britain's war industry one' woman's effort has equaled that of one man, writes Melita Spraggs in the Christian Science Monitor. This now has Leen stated cate- gorically for the first time by the Minister of Labor Mr. Ernest Bevin, after careful study of the output figures for Britain's 7,500,000 mobilized women. When conscription of women was being considered, Mr. Bevin said he estimated it would take three women to do the work of tv, o men" With the co-operation of every- one along the line, the production. engineers and the amen who have trained the women, Mr. Bevin re- ported that "women have been equal to one per one". When Mr. Bevin took office in 1940, it was hoped that 5,000,000 women could be transferred from domestic and peacetime industry. Actually, orderly conscription of women resulted in the mobiliza- tion of 7,500,000. • Nylon rope, used to pick up and tow gliders behind airplanes, can stretch nearly a third without breaking. Helps (heck (oids Qukkly You can often check a cold quickly if you follow these instructions. Just as soon as you feel the cold com- ing on and experience headache, pains lin the back or limbs, soreness through the body, take a Paradol tablet, a good big drink of hot lemonade or ginger tea and go to bed. The Parade] affords almost immed- iate relief from the pains and aches and helps you to get off to sleep. The dose nay be repeated, if necessary, accord - ng to the directions. If there is sore- ness of the throat, gargle with two Paradol tablets dissolved in water. Just try Paradol the next time you have a cold and we believe that you will be well pleased. Paradol does not disap• !point. ase's Paradol CHRONICLES Gwendollne P. Clarke Partner and 1 have gone south for the winter—or maybe indefin- • itely. We find the bright warm sun very welcome after the cold northern air. What part of the south, did you ask? Oh dear, I am • afraid I have been misleading you. You see, we are still in Ontayio, still at Ginger Farm—I only mean that we moved our bedroom from the north end of the house to the south—and honest -to -goodness, it is almost like going to another country. * ,* The room that was formerly our bedroom was sandwiched between the living -room and the dining - room. It had its advantages and its disadvantages, among them the fact that we half froze in winter and sweltered in summer. That was before the advent of the furnace. Wit:: the furnace we sweltered both summer and winter. It was impossible, because of its location, to keep the room cool enough for sleeping and yet have the rest of the house comfortably warm. Knowing this prompted Daughter to suggest one time when she was home, that we use the big south room as a bedroom. The idea had been at the back of my mind for some time but I had lacked cour- - age to mention it—to ask a roan to dove from one room to another is like trying fo tear an oak tree up by its roots. But I finally got around to it—and you know the result. The south room is twenty by twenty, and in addition to bed- room furniture it also contains an old square piano, a large table, -my sewing machine and in one corner a large stack of folding chairs which belong to the Women's In- stitute and -are left with us for storage. * * * Then there was our erstwhile bedroom to deal with. "What do you think you will do with this room?'.' asked Partner. The answer to that was more furniture to move! • The room is long and narrow. One end ac-• comodates my typewriter table, a few shelves, two chairs and the furnace smoke pipe. The other end 1J holds a comfortable old stud'o couch a small table and a wicker chair. There is linoleum on the floor. The room is always warm and since there is nothing to spoil Partner knows he can sit in it any time—even in his overalls. And that is how I want it. 1 hope I never have a ho ie so impeccable that the only pla:e man feels • comfortable is in the kitchen. As to that there is not much need for alarm. I am very .far from being the world's best housekeepper. The Bookshelf ... Vistas Grave Ana Gay By T. B. Gleave In Vistas Grave and Gay we have a collection of poems to de- light the ear, to warm the heart, and to stir the imagination. T. B. Gleave is a people's poet. He has a way of putting his deep, human sympathy, his fine, mature emotion and his delightful humor into verses that sing, Indeed the volume is a book of songs of the sort the people love—songs of love and home and patriotism; sheer, bubbling non- sense; again a song with tears in the under tones; and at least one hymn—or two. Wherever it goes we believe this • book will carry a message of cheer and comfort and inspiration. Vistas Grave and Gay . . . By T. B. Gleave ... Price 80c, post - ago paid. A Poor Excuse Poor sermons may furnish the excuse for many (who do not go to church), but a poor one is bet- ter than none at all, says the Guelph' Mercury. There are many attractions in this modern age that lure folks away from worship. This is one of the problems of the mo- dern church, and the cause niay prove to be more closely identified .. with the pew than with the pul- pit. Sapphires and lame by DOROTHY TROWBRIDGE CHAPTER XVI However, it seemed unnecessary to run away. Evidently he was not coming to the rose garden. She heard hurried footsteps on the other side of the hedge, then she heard low voices' near the corner back of the summer house. Stanley had probably conte out to meet Maxine. They could not be seen from the- house, here at the end. Even she could not see therm, nor could she catch what they were saying. But she realized suddenly that It was not Maxine to whom Stan- ley was talking. Both voices be- longed to men. She started for- ward in dismay. Harry! He had come back and Stanley had seen him and taken him around the end of the hedge out of sight of everyone to explain to him, that she wanted to break the engagement, and would he come back next week for the ring, and Harry was telling hint there never had been an engagement and — oh, • dear! What should she do? Would it be worse to go to them and make her own explanations or to slip out of the garden and be out of sight if they should glance in here. * * * Before she could decide Nancy rushed out of the front door and standing on the step looked about her anxiously. "Pidge!" she called "fidget Where are you?" She hurried down the steps and into the garden. Peggy breathed again. Maybe after all it was only Pidge to whom Stanley was talking. "Isn't he here?" Nancy contin- ued, starting up the path towards Peggy. "I saw him from the house coming up the drive, but he didn't come in." As Peggy started to reply she • heard the sound d of running feet behind the hedge and an eager voice' cried, "Here Peggy's mouth remained open, and she stood as if* petrified with astonishment. Here he was indeed. Harry—Harry and Nancy rushing tcwards each other. Harry was Pidge. Harry's ring ha : been Nan- cy's. And al e oli,-- good grief! "Gosh, honey, I was thrilled when you called me last night," he was saying to Nancy who in- terrupted him quickly. "Where is niy ring?" she asked. She was watching him intently 1 and did not hear Peggy's "Oh" • breathed in a woebegone whisper. Harry was the only one who seemed • at ease. Taking the jeweler's box from his pocket be opened it and ' slipped the ring on the flue" of his evidently surprised fiancee. s "Where did you supppose it was?" he asked. "Oh!" both girls exclaimed. It would have been hard to tell which of them sounded the more aston- ished. "It's just like yours, isn't it, Peg- gy?" Nancy asked sweetly. Too sweetly. Harry had not noticed Peggy in the entrance of the summer house and turned towards her now in em- barrassment. "I believe 'it is," Stanley, enter- ing the garden from the opposite side, answered for Peggy. Nancy gave him a quick suspi- cious glance. "It's too bad you can't find yours," she continued, still watching Peggy. . "But Peggy's has been found," Stanley explained, "I was just bringing it to her." He drew a ring from his pocket and stood holding it in his hand. It was an exact dupliciate of Nancy's. "The one from Carver's, of course!" Peggy cried to herself. "He was there when Mr. Carver talked about making i'.. It was he who bought it this afternoon." "You see 'they aie exactly alike, Strange, isn't it?" Stanley was say- ing. '. "But where?" Peggy exclaimed, glancing from one ring to the other. Stanley laughed. "Don't give me the credit. Mrs. Horton is the real detective. You didn't know, did your" addressing Peggy, "that for the past ten years she has been reading all of the best detective bcoks that she could bu;'? Some one gave her one on her seventieth birthday and since hen she had read there regularly She thought you and Maxine were too young for them, so I think your grand- mother has been reading then on the ,sly. She told me about thein this afternoon," "The Monday express packages!" Peggy thous*ht with an inward chuckle. * * * Stanley caught the twinkle in her eye, and moiled at her. "I had a hard time convincing her that a motion picture director could have half the brains of a good detective, but I think I finally put it over after I told her I, too, had a weak— ness for detective stories. How- ever, she told the that even an amateur should have been able to find the ring. According to her, girls have always hidden their jewelery in the same place. So when• she decided I had been given plei.ty of time to find it without any success, she dug it up herself. The Pick of Tobacco Chenille Helps Wire Hangers "Dolled Up" Garment Hang- ers Make Inexpensive and Attractive Gifts Wire garment hangers can easily be made both attractive and prac- tical for use. Buy, at a ten -cent store, a skein. of chenille in any desired color and wind into a ball for conven- ient handling. Beginning at the tip of the hook, wind the chenille closely over and over the wire, leaving an end of about / inch where you start. Cover the hook Guess where? In the toe of one of Miss Narcy's evening slippers." That young lady had the grace to blush. "But who is the man you are going to marry, Peggy?" site de- manded. Stanley looked at Peggy. Peggy looked at Stanley. If there was a question in his eyes the answer in hers must have been the right one for he was smiling when he slipped the ring on her finger. "Whom do you think?" he asked happily, (THE END) completely, being careful to wind the chenille very tight so that no wire shows. Continue in this man- ner until the entire hanger is cov- ered. As you proceed, push the wound portion back every few inches to insure complete cover- ing of the wire. It will be neces- sary to pass the ball of chenille over and under the wire as you work, but by keeping the ball wound tightly, allowing just en- ough play to work with comfort- ably, this won't be too bother- some. * * * When you have covered the en- tire surface and are back at the junction of hook and hanger, fas- ten securely and finish with a bow- knot of the chenille. With thread or silk of matching shade, sew the end of chenille, left where you started, over and through the tip of the hook (this is usually of double wire). If the stitches are drawn tightly, they will scarcely show. * * * Two skeins of chenille, which comes in many delightful . colors, will be sufficient to cover five hangers; and the work is very quickly done. No longer a nuisance, the hangers will stay quietly izt place and help to make the closet attractive. B . nk President V t,ices Need Fr Co- ragei:us,, Realistic Thinking l� '. nsition Fr : m W ;: r to Peace George W. Spinney Sees Canada With Great Post -War Advantages, But Warns Against View That Economic 1' illenniu_ni Can Materialize Through Order -in -Council B. C. Gardner, General Manager, Reviews Bank Act Revision — Announces Post -War Rehabilitation Programme For Bank's Personnel — Pays High Tribute To Staff Stressing the magnitude of the economic and social problems lacing Canada in the post-war era, George W. Spinney, C.M.t.T., presi- dent of the Bank of Montreal, recently voiced the need for a full appreciation of Canada's national advantages and for courageous, realistic thinking in the transitional period from war to peace. Mr. Spinney was speaking before shareholders of the bank at their 127th annual meeting. "I take second place to no man in my earnest desire that our hopes and expectations shall be achiev- ed," Mr. Spinney declared, "But I sometimes wonder whether all the brave plans for the future are ac- companied by a full realization of what • has to be accomplished if these plans are to materialize. In- deed, it would seem that many people are assuming today that a post-war economic millennium, in which everybody will be more se- cure, richer and presumably hap- pier, can materialize by Order -in - Council. "But to take an honestly real- istic look at the post-war prospect is to recognize that the reconver- sion of industry to civilian produc- tion, the re-employment in peace- time pursuits of those now in the Armed Forces and in war work and the restoration of our external trade on a satisfactory basis will involve problems of tremendous magnitude." SECURITY THROUGH RISK Declaring himself no pessimist in regard to this country's post- war possibilities and enumerating some of the great advantages with which Canada would start out into the new era after the war, Mr. Spinney said that, to his mind, the true objectives of post-war plan- ning must include full employment arising out of productive activity and operating under conditions of individual liberty to produce a high standard of living in real terms of goods and .services. "I know of no' other objectives," he declared, "that will satisfy the requirements of a progressive and freedom -loving people, nor do I know of any way in which these ends can be achieved except through production on the broad- est possible scale and the freest possible exchange of the resultant products within our own borders and beyond them." CONTINGENT RESERVES - The subject of inner or contin- gent reserves was discussed at length by Mr. Spinney during the course of his address. Declaring that discussions of the matter during the recent decennial revi- sion of the Bank Act at Ottawa had revealed many basic miscon- ceptions, he said the test of expe- rience in all countries had proven that the practice of adding to such reserves when it stn, pnwsihlc to do so, in order to "cushion" les., favourable periods when loans might unexpectedly become bad and the value of assets might shrink, was the only safe policy to protect the interests of deposi- tors. GENERAL MANAGER'S ADDRESS Highlights of a rehabilitation plan for Bank of Montreal person- nel now in the Armed Forces were a feature of the address by B. C. Gardner, general manager of the institution. The question of absorb- ing the bank's hien in the services had, he said, been the subject of a great deal of study and the bank's plans had been prepared well in advance. "It seemed to us," lie continued, "that many of then would be in- terested in knowing what our policy is, With this in mind we prepared an outline of the present arrange- ments and the procedure we ex- pect to follow and sent it, with a covering letter, to our men serving with the forces. Briefly, it is our intention to place these officers on the salary, and, within a reason- able time, in the position, which they would normally have expected to attain had they been in the con- tinuous service of the bank. Our object is to sec that they have not lost ground through their service to their country." BANK ACT REVISION The general manager, in dealing with the recent revision of the act under which the chartered banks operate, enumerated the more im- portant amendments made b • � Par- liament, The bank, he said, wel- comed such of the amendments as gave it extended powers to meet the sound credit needs of its customers and would co-operate to the fullest possible extent with the new governmental agencies in making credit of a specified nature available for domestic and export purposes. TRIBUTE TO STAFF In concluding his remarks, Mr. Gardner paid high tribute to the fine work and loyal co-operation of the staff, saying: "I wish to record our sincere appreciation of the continued efficient service and loyal co-operation of each member of the staff throughout another difficult year, They have coped cheerfully with an ever-increasing voiunte of work and have main - 'mined a High standing of service to time public."
