WINTER ROAD!

Sir.--I heartily agree with the ”Rcader" from Kensington regard- ing the laying up of cars and trucks once the snow arrives. The Government mow plowa are a coat- ly public service for all most; peo- ple get in return. The great mn- chlne going through a narrow country road with half its mechan- ism folded up because of the trees and clay banks on either side, makes a narrow cutting where two vehicles cannot meet. Give us this money's worth on repair: to roads to make them passable in sum- mer and junk those snow pluughs.

I know of one mail courier who had to transfer Her Majesty's mail from wheels to o sleigh and keep both vehicles on the road in order to complete his route. Do you call that winter road service? I pay my tax in license and gasoline for nine months of the year and am well satisfied with the horse and sleigh for the other three months. For better summer roads,

They have refused not only to withdraw the charge but they have kept repeatinrlt. Now the U. S. is insisting on an apology and this is holding up all confer- . once.

The izrcat. bulk of their pro- pegaiirlii is pure lies. so flint now no one outside Rll-sill will li-. lievr. a word they say and now their own people are fast lrisin: faith which may ultimately be their undoing.

Is not. this what is wrong with (he iinregenerate world? They arr. determined not to repent. They haven't murdered any one. They have nothing to repent of.

That is what. denies Goil llll chance of saving them. When John the Baptist. came on the

scene he cried, "Repent. repent!" .Tesus' first word was just that. "Recent for the Kingdom of Heaven Is at hand", for he knew that unless they repented God could do nothing for them. The

Pharisees did not like either John's or .'lesus' preaching. They had nothing to repent of. "We

keep the law". Their minds were closed.
