For the Christian roliskm the V” nun, the way of the cross. is the via lueia. the way of light. Jesus did not seek or glorify suffering 10: its own sake. It always aroused his camp y is called forth

M the outset of -mission his temptations were to mac his Messhhship economic. or political. or a combinauon of ma- ,g,, ma marvel. which wou-d have "my, mm popular; a Christ after me Eassne. Pharisaic. Zealot. or

The cross cannot be isolated from self-discipline and from the whole dun; mystery of suffering. which it

' lllwnines. In one bold sayins. St. pgul speak; of his own sufferings .5 "filling up that which is lack- mg" in those of Christ. "for his body; sake. which is the church." For some this cross is voluntary. for others inevitable, for none wholly avoidable. But by accept-, ing and hearing it as their lot, in the spirit of Jesus. with a steady

. refusal to be embittered by it. all may gain moral and spiritual strength. and therewith an insight ma a sympathy not otherwise to be acquired. and a. victory which is an abiding joy. '

The gospel is the proclamation of the gracious action of God, who always takes the initiative; and his dealings with man are never less than personal. In the death and resurrection of Christ the owcr of evil. though not removed mm the world, was met and beaten. and that victory is a new liberating power over sin and death.

it makes an objective difference if the activity of God for man's salvation was working in all that Christ was. taught. and accomp- lished. And though God forgives those who repent. it is a deeper truth that he gives repentance to those who sin. To repent is the root difficulty while man's egolsm is intact. The cross and resurrection are it demonstration of the right- eousness of God against scif-cen- iredness and sin. .

What was achieved by Christ's life of unswerving loyalty and pure obedience. and his death. is avail- able for all because he is ll. living, active power. by which other lives can be modelled alter the same pattern. Arising from the depths of his spirit, this power can enter into the depths of the spirits of others with transforming grace.

WOODPECKIIIS

In Birdland. ability to live on Canadian products that its an plentiful and as easily obtained in winter as in summer is a very great 1 t :it "' I--the necessity of migration. For that

remain here all year round. Scpsucksrs, dependent on running sap, leave when frost becomes hard. Flickers. whose special taste turns to ants found on the ground. stay until snow interferes, and a few seem able to pick up enough in- sects of one kind or another to al- low them more time in Canada. If the nut crop is good, some of On- tario's Rod-headed Wcodpeokers postpone migration a bit. Though seldom appearing i.n public. Arctic Three-toad and spectacular Pileat- ed woodpeckers are permanent Canadian residents. But the Hairy and its little replica. the Downy Woodpecker, are ever with us. Their food consists of wood-boring grubs and hibernating insects -which they are able to get at just as well now as in summer. As their name implies. most woodpeckers peck the bark of trees. This is done for two pur- poses: to procure insect food and to chisel out homes for themselves in trunks of trees. Nature has made them to suit their way of living, therefore neck muscles. bills, tong- ues. legs, feet, and tails are all es- pecially designed. Because neck muscles supply the driving power without which bills would be useless, they are made extraordinarily strong. Watch a Woodpecker at work, and notice how rapidly its head moves back- wards and forwards. The bills are stout. with chisel-shaped ends for cutting into wood. Examin one of their holes and see how neatly it is made. ..ood.peckers' t are very long and cylindrical. tips hard and pointed. with barbs upon the sides. The ether end is r.-uricd around the back of the head and exciosed in a. muscular sheath. so lctuallyi some tongues are twice the length of the head, and can be shot out of the beak to stab an in- sect deep in the wood of the tree, and then pulled in with the spiked prey.

The legs of woodpeckers are short and stout. as the birds' work is done in a vertical position, bod-
