Similarly, the confession of one's sins is not an end in itself. neith- er indeed is the forgiveness which follows; for the soul's health there must be an accompanying decision to take a new and better way.

This is the lesson ,4inouics.'.ed in the, parable of the empty house. which occurs in the Gospel for the third Sunday in Lent. in which the house is described as "swept and gsmished." The version in st. Matthew adds the significant word "empty". which is the key word of the parable, and as in any case implied in St. Luke. ,

That the house of the soul should undergo the periodic self-discipline suggested by the words "swept and garnished" is clearly bath whole- some and' usentiai to spiritual well-being; that it should remain in this negative condition is to open the door to the invasion of that wh ch is hostile to the life of the spir t.

One of the subtlest temptations associated with ' tration on penitence is to think that to get rid of the sense of guilt is an and instead of a new beginning; that to have dealt with sins and short- comings is any more than the pre- paration of the pilgrim for the next stage of his spiritual journey. the stripping of the runner for the race.

The christian uife demands not only abstention from evil, as phys- ical health implies more tvsan the mere absence of disease; it is posi- tive virtue. active 'goodness, that enriches the lives of men. It is the full life which is the happy and balanced life.

The Federal Government opinion on de Bernonville is that he isn't a mere political ref . as his Quebec friends. would have us be- licvc. He was one of the top Viohy officials colisborating '-with the Nada. and as a convicted traitor is automatically barred from Canada.

My very first day at school was made doubly miserable; because during the foreman recess. I had managed to land a fair sized stone on the dome of an eighth grader - a girl at that. Horror of horrors! Then I took Preach leave, as fast as my legs could carry me. The master sent a couple of the older boys to bring me in. when we approached the door, Mr. Sel- ler stood framed in it. I ghost of a smile playing across his face. "You'll beat me." I said "I won't go in." V "No. I won't." he promised. "Not if you promise to throw no more stones."

Quiverinz with fright, I took my seat - the one next to the rear wall where the big boys had set up a noise-making gadget between the waiis..To this gadget was at- tached a string and every time one of them came; in or we t out the string was given a yan that sent off a clanking of irons and bells. much to Master Seller's an- noyance but greatly to the dc- light of the P419115. Mr. Seller had a difficult time with the older pupils, especially with the big boys who went." to school only dur- ing the winter months. when work on the farms ha.d slowed down.

Today they are scattered far and wide like the graves of a household. and some sleep in soldier's graves far, far from their homes and loved ones; yet in fan- cy I still can see them playing their impish pranks right under the nose of the teacher. when one of their number was dragged from his seat by the burly master and made to stand in a. comer with his face toward the wall, the others would bring out their bean-sling- ers and pepper the culprit with such a shower of dried beans th t the whole school resounded to t e rat-tat-tat of bounci pellets, the sound of which was very much like the machine-gun in action.

Mr. Seller had a facility for contriving punishments suitable to the nature of the offense. For example. when Neil Walker let loose a flock of sheep-ticks glean- ed from his father's flock, and shook them on the back of the girls who sat in front of him, Mr. Seller retaliated with ten strokes p' the cat 0' nine tails five strokes to each of Neil's hands.

scholars who told lies had to re- clis, a long poem on Friday.

lie also had other ways of per- suuiing us to shun evil and take the straight and narrow path. Those whose department measured up to his standard were permitted to go home half an hour earlier on Friday, while those who fell under the spell of the tompter had to remain in school one hour later doing difficult problems in math.

The primer was a small book, 5" by 4", with paper covers and cheap binding. Besides ' ' a number of pictures the primer had "spelling words," little folks' ms. "Lessons and maxims ifor Children". and so forth. .

It was always a marked event when the school inspector arrived. If King George and Queen Eliza-

wherc I am writing, they would not seem half so important to me as did the -inspector who visited our school, once or twice each year. He arrived in a. wagon, his coming announced by some pupil who peeked through a crack.

The awful news was passed from one to another in throaty whis- pers. The teacher. too, glanced around uneasily. Then a heavy silence descended on the old school. This wu broken by foot-. stops and a knock on the weather- beaten door. when the Unit mm stepped across the threshold the stillness of death filled the room. How could anything we might do seem proper in sight of this august person?

In a matter of moments he got down to business. Iossons were heard. our longhand was looked over. and so on. How well I re- member my first inspector. is Mr. Dauereauxi The very size of the man filled me with fear. I also re- call what hc one! said to the toacher about some. new equili- ment. -

"Get a new map of the world. Why I declare some of them are putriiying." Then he walked out. puffing like a steam engine. When the door had closed behind him the spell was broken. and we re- sumed our mischief making. The teacher having gained his natural look, began to take up where he had left off. and the older boys played rat-tat-tat on the black- boani with their bsan shooters.
