THE HYMN "0 MY FATHER”, One line reads "In Thy Holy Habitation did my spirit once reside". This is proA.-yf ■*+._. ence, When Eliza R. Snow wrote this hymn there was not 750 million people in China, Three billion people on earth today, hardly standing room. Acts 10:34 "Then Peter opened his mouth and said ’Of a truth I perceive that God is no respector of persons’", ' If God is no respector of persons then every human being, past, present and future, must have had a (pre existence), a word not found in the Bible, Sunday School teacher Dave Keeler doesn’t believe'in birth control. When we mentioned the plight of the Chinese and nearly as many in India, Dave said "Send them over here, we have plenty of land". , 9 , According to the Financial Post the $450,000,000.00 spent yearly on welfare, relief,' old age pensions, family allowances, unemployment insurance, etc, is one of the reasons for the financial plight of the government today. The source of pre existence in modem thought is from Wordsworth’s "Intimations of Immortality". Eliza R. must have read it. Agnus Sherman of Wolford, visiting at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Phil Sheer. "We have a wonderful crop", she says. Her husband is recovering from a light stroke. Time after time when the black clouds go South East they have the appearance of giving the Option ( our sheep ranch) a real soaking (Hutterville and South). Dave Waldner, 'fam boss, says we didn’t even get a sprinkle. It happens so often. We need rain badly, Dave says it is so dry we don’t think we will plant fall wheat. Thirty eight bushel crop this year. THE WAY OUT Years ago, "the tree the grows in Brooklyn" — a maple of tremendous girth — was surround­ed by a steel fence to protect it, A drunk on his way home one night bumped into the fence grasped the steel pickets and in fear, staggered round and round the tree. Four times he circled the fence, stopping occasionally to shake the steel pickets fiercely and'his dis-' may turned to bewilderment. Suddenly he stopped in despair and shouted. "Oh Lord, help me. I’m locked in," Many of us create our own dead ends and corrals by illusions of difficulties that do not exist. - A,M.S, Seven year old grandson: "Grandma, what have you got good to eat?" Grandma: "Lots of nice things Johnny", Johnny: "Just the same old stuff". NOTICE: The Women’s Hospital Auxiliary will hold it’s regular meeting, Saturday after­noon, Sept.
