, principle which is rgpidly revo-

lutionizing education in rural

municipalities be equally effective in religious life and work?

it is surprising to see the change 'p..t has co s over the public

ma 1.. rege cl to education. A ,-couple of years ago a government 3 ,,port spoke of "a growing recog- friition of the advtaabilty of closing "small schools where possible and

go. provd-ing for the attendance of

9.. pupils concerned at nearby

"noel; where they may have the

opportunity of associating with

more pupils of their own age."

Statistics show that the move- mcnt is going ahead rapidly. that it has led to "an. upsurge" of new building! with better equipment and increased staff. and that en- mged school areas on the elem- mxary level and enlarged districts

on the high school level are the order of the day.

The "little red school-house." so often inefficient and hard to maintain. is beins replaced by facilities which equalize opportun- ities for education all over the province. And the school bus which brings the boys and girls to the central school is a neces- nry part of the picture.

My friend's question is:.Why work out this idea in the church?

Many families who want to at- tend public worship regularly on the Lord's Day are far from a church and have no cars for long- disiance travel. This is particular- ly true in the summer months when the holiday season means the uprooting of so many out of their regular church connection. On Sunday the school bus is idle; why not use it to take people to chiii-ch? This would meet the need of many families and would bring encouragement to many dis- couraged congregations. The spir- itual condition of many commun- ities will be lifted when such a gysiem is made to work.

The importance of public wor- ship cannot be ovcr-emphasized. Where the church is not in action religion is not taught. the young people generally grow up in ignor- ance of God. Two summers ago A student was sent to organise a congregation in a remote district of a western province. He found the children in utter ignorance of the Bible and its message. They heard the name of God only in blasphemy.

At once this young missionary began to give weekly lessons in religious knowledge in the four schools in his district. A little chap

said to him one day: "My mummy wants us to learn these things. but she don't know nuthin about them herself."

The same year another student opened a mission in a suburb of I great city. He found than hun- dreds of fe.i-allies with no one among than who cared about the moral and social welfare of the boys and girls.not to speak of their religious training. His job was to interest the men particularly. and bring them together in serving youth.

There are no rnorel standards where God is not known and loved. "The morals of the barn- yard" was the way I heard con- ditions in one such area. described. We who have been brought up in the church and have never known a place without a church have no idea of how much it has done to

"The nslnlater is unlntaestis-lg."

She kept up her advocacy of the cause until she won the wo- men first. then the men. with the result that in ten years they had their church renovetAd.theirma.nts built and pgid for, and church services and church -work that was an inspiration to the whole com. munity.

The trouble with many efforts at reform is that may do not start at the source of the trouble. Teen-sgera are shocking msriy communities by their pranks. and many of them are heading for criminal careers. Crimes of vio.- ence multiply. All the while we are rnnking relsloua w more difficult by turning the sacred day into a. new opportunity for com- mercialized sport. some years Ilo, when a. sabbath controversy was on. an editorial in a Toronto pa- per took this position: The State is leeving the moral and religious training of its youth to the church: now it must provide the church with opportunity for a work on which the national character de- pends. The church's only real op- portunity is the sacred day; now the State is providing for young people to be drawn away from the church to attractions which. to say the least. csnnot build up charac- ter. In addition the same state is flooding the country with alcohol.

There is much to be done to save the situation. but at least this course is open before every Christian man and woman- strengthen the sources cf religious and moral life in your district. Build up the church and interest young people in its activities wherever you can reach it. Above all. present Christ to people of all ages-the solution of all these problems. -

IICI BIRD

Never has any human being coma nearer to possessing a dual personality than Mr. Boboiink. We Canadians know him as a bans. ficial member of society. well dressed. and having a most pleas- ing voice - a perfect Dr. Jekyll. To "Southerners" he is a wicked thief. drably dressed. with a harsh voice -- another Mr. Hyde. So chwled is he. that those acquaint ed with him in springtime only. can hardly credit the tales told of his aiutumn escapades.

The bird that we have learned to love. subject of the poets. ar- rives in May. when his rippling. hllll-W song is heard from fence posts surrounding fields on the

he is not as good a family man as he might be, so much of his time is engaged in singing. even on the wing. But a little freedom might be allowed one who is a master at his art; and besides. he is use- ful as a watchman. At the slight- cat sign of danger his wife is warned. She leaves the well-hid- den nest immediately, knowing that without her presence it will never be found in the tall grass.

Probably papa's seaming neg- lect is actually good judgment. Mama's buffy dress might pus un- noticed. but his conspicuous. suit would certainly be seen. Unlike any other song bird his under side is entirely black. his top side mostly light. A yellow. three-cor- nerbd scarf is draped over the back of his black head, and the lower half of his back and his shoulders are white. The pointed. bristly endings of his tail feathers are characeristlc.

The neslings are fed injurious insects. and once they are able to fly the entire family takes to the marshes. loinlng others of their kind. There they live on weed seeds and insects until late Aug- ust, while the adult male takes off his handsome costume and done a garb similar to his wife's. Now he is Mr. Hyde. the Juveniles are ready to travel. and pf! they all go.

A few weeks later. rice grow- ers of the Southern states waken up one morning to the sound of hundreds of Bobolinks uttering their monotonous "pink" call. Buffy coloured. striped birds are swarming dawn on their precious fields of rice. getting ready for a good feed before continuing their trip hrough Florida and the West Indies. across the Caribbean Sea. and on to South America. Their objective is Paraguay. or the most southern corner of Brazil. Other species use parts of this route. but it is known as "the "Bobolinka' flyway."

Ialeut. olonel Jim Stone. who is eornenaod-lug the and battalion of the Princess Patrlcis's Canadian Light Infantry, will know probab- ly better than any of the unit

ornmanders what this means. I remember vividly when Jim Stone fought down the Astra and Sun- eto valleys in Sicily with the Roy- al Edmonton Regiment. There. it was a bsttla acrosa mountains and hills. It was guerrilla fighting much of the way.

Much The Same

Korea will be much the same. Only the country is closer. There are more hills packed into smaller space. There are not as many roads as in Sicily or Italy. But veterans of the Mediterranean campaigns who are in the special force will feel a bit at home on the Korean front.

They will find that Asiatic fins are the same as Mediterranean: that Korean dust is just as chok- lng as Sicilian; that a North Ko- rean enemy can be just as wily as a German grenadicr and can use ground even better to his advant-

S-Tiiiey will ilnd that the Com- munist enemy is more merciless than the Nazis: they will encount- er barbarisrn they can scarcely believe: they won't ilght an enemy that follows any accepted rule: of

That is the way this war has been coins-

Trafnlng In Japan

After talking to British. Austral- ian. and American military auth- critics in Tokyo and in Korea. I feel myself that it would be a wise decision to give the special force its real combat training in Japan. rather than in Canada.

The force could be organiud. equipped and given basic training at Petawawa. Shilo. Wainwright and Valcartier. But within two months it should be in Japan. on long. hard manoeuvres in the south Japan mountains which are much like those in Korea.

There are more than adequate facilities for such training in Jap- an. At Kure in the south. about 25 miles from rebuilt Hiroshima. is a camp where 40.000 servicemen in the British Commom..e..lth oc- upation force were accommodated at the peak of the army occupat- io
