"Must I go and empty handed" ml "He will hold me fast" were m; n; Oifertory numbers. n. the mcrnlnit the Scripture lesson ivos from John 1:19-34 and m, ahond took for the subject of his sermon “The Testimony of John the Baptist concerning Christ’: "The writer of the gospel does not attempt to give us a history 01 John the Baptist. He presupposes ygthel‘ that _ we are acquainted wit}. the accounts of. John the llnptht which are contained in the first three gospel; In the first pogo gospels we read how John the Blilitht preached in the wilder- ness and how great crowds of people came to hear him. He preached repentance and he bap- tized those who came to him. “with tllis background which we ilrive largely from the first tines gospels we can understand why the priests and levites sent a committee to investigate John the Baptist. From the 24th verse we see tho: those sent were also from the scct oi the Pharisees. The preaching of John the Baptist itlrred up so much popular inter- est that there was the natural question as to whether his work was n real work of God- But mere stirring up of popular interest. would not cause this question to be asked in more than casual con- vcrsntlon. But the religious lead- ers saw in the work cf John the baptist a challenge to their eccles- iastical authority. Hence they lil- vestlgiitsd the work of John the Baptist with a hostile spirit’. Mat- thew 2:7 shows us that fact. “The committee‘ investigating Johll the Baptist wished a declar- ation llS to who he was. But if they cx z-cted a proud boasting mail \\' om they could easily ex- pcs: ihry were disappointed. They ask him if he u the Christ. l-le denies that he is. the Chri}. They ask him if he is Elijah. In Mal- achi 4:5 we read, ‘Behold I will send you Elijah the prophet be- fore the coming of thc great and terrible (lily of the Lord.‘ He de- nied thrit he was lillijnh. They ask if he ivns ‘that prophet.’ In mut- eronomy 18:15 we read, ‘The Lord thy God will raise up unto thee a Prophrl rrcm the midst of thee, of lily brethren like Jlnto me; unio him shall ye harken.' But John lllc Baptist denied that. he was ‘that prophet.‘ "who then was he? He says. ‘I am the voice crying in the wilder- ness, ninkc straight the way of the lord.‘ lie is the one of whom Isaiah propheded-Iohn the Bap- un instead of claiming any great thing for himself claimed that his work was only preparatory. The investigators ask him why he- bap- tized. Again he claims that h work is only preparatory. He bap- ules only lzl water and that is I! Dleperiitlon forthe coming of one who is greater than he. Ho was Pltllai-lrlg the way for God. No wonder he thought the coming one was greater than hel Johli the Baptist also testifies that Jesus is “the lamb of God who take; away the sin of the world.’ How did hc know that Jesus was the lamb of God?

The sign was that upon whom John the Baptist saw the Spirit des- cencing and remaining, he it was who would baptize with the Spirit. John the Baptist saw the Spirit like a dove descending on Jesus and remaining on him. - "We must see Jesus as John th Baptist saw him.

Referring to developments in the tire industry in recent years. "One not ac- quainted with the manufacturing of tires would likely think the tire‘ in- dustry was rapidly increasing owing to the rapid increase of a ‘ mobile transportation and due to this that profits would be easily made but this is not the condition. The sale of tires has decreased surprisingly in relation to cars in operation.

The preacher stated in part : "I would not put a rigid prohibition on all cheap lit- erature but I should like t0 pee the Christian people of our Island more discriminating in their choice of what they read, A tremendous aid to that selection is the Carnegie Library, now finishing its three year experiment on this Island. The value of that service cannot be estimated in terms of dollars and cents but in terms of lives kept out of goal. children's minds being enriched with decent stories, young people with wider interests and bet- ter informed minds, homer made more homelike and the general tone of the life of the citizens.

He is the youngest member 0H the Government side and lacks 0111? two or three months of "being the youngest in the House. Conservative leader Bennett, who followed Mr. Fbunlier, congratulat- ed the mover and secorider o: the motion. The Conservative leader began by Teielflnk to the majority o; the government which he pmdicted Wmlld become troublesome in the future. Itwas not true‘ the $011911}. ment had the greatest majority ln Canadian history although“, 1mg 171 members out of p45 Thjj sol/eminent. Mr. Bennett said Has been placed there by less than 35 out of 100 of the men and women who had the right to vote at the last election." That was an anomaly, m. non- nett said “that cannot endure if ' my is to last." The govern- ment was not only without a mo. joirty of those who voted but was Supported by only one-third of those entitled to vote. The popular wll] 0f the country was not represented, The effect of the election, "viewed from the standpoint of democracy," called for a remedy. Other coun- tries had dealt with the same prob- lems and lf democracy was to Con. tlnuc in Canada they would have to be dealt with here. Mr. Bennett said he deprecated the war propaganda circulated dug- ing the election campaign in the province of Quebec. He held up newspapers published on the eve of 311B election which carried scare headlines forecasting Canada's en- ti‘? into war and describing pre- Darations made for mobilizing a. large Canadian army. Efforts were made in other pro- vinoes, Mr. Bennett said, to induce men and women to believe the Con- servative party "had wedded itself to war." This might bring Tiflmpg)‘- ary advantage to a party but in the end it would weaken the bonds of confederation. Referring to the Canadian-Amer- ican trade treaty. Mr. Bennett spoke ct the speed with which it was ne. gotlated, almost overnight, by the Prime Minister in Washington.‘ In view of that, the treaty either was drifted before he went to Washing- ton or it was an improvident one. History would show, Mr. Bennett said, the latter of the two alter- natives would be true—that the treaty was an lmprovfdent one. RflEflIdl-flg the trade settlement with Japan, Mr. Bennett said if press reports of the treaty were true "two years from now will see the most humiliated government there has ever been in this coun- try-if this government survives." References in the Speech from the Throne to restoring the su- premacy of Parliament were simply "silly." He asked the government to name a, single instance in which the former government had taken any action by order-ln-councll for which Parliament had not given 1t full authority. The present government had set about revising the whole fiscal sys- tem by order-in-council ‘and had embarked upon sanctions against Italy. Mr. Bennett said. Where, he asked, was the supremacy of Par- liament there? While passing through the Pan- ama Canal, Mr. Bennett said, he was amazed to receive a newspaper saying there was rejoicing in Italy over a "statement made by the Minister of Justlc (Mr. Lapofnte)!‘ Dr. W. A. Riddell, Canadian rep- resentative at the League of Na- tions, was a. most careful man when it came to taking any action for which he had not full authority. What had happened was the com- mlttee of 1B at Geneva were eon- sldering, sanctions and Dr. Riddell sug ‘ ’ if the sanctions required (Ianada to give up its trade in nic- kel he saw no reason why they should not be applied to oil and other products produced by other countries. Prommly it was suggested that Dr. Rlddell had been acting at the instance of the British government, doing something for Britain that Britain did not wish to do. Mr. Lapointek statement on Dr. Riddellb action. said Mr. Bennett. "leaves I. very bad impression on the minds of people about what the position of Canada really is." Canada, Mr. Bennett said, was bound by the bylaws of the. league welcher or honorably keep its wold. The Conservative leader referred to the “great impropriety’ ‘of m. Lepointsfls statement which he be- lieved had done Canada injury throughout the world. Turning to domestic affairs, M1‘. Bennett asked what the proposed " ‘ 01mm.- . " . sion would do.

He was glad to see that the Speech from the Throne used the words "state intervention" in con- nection with the protection of tex- tile workers at Sberbrooke, said Mr. Bennett. The party which now talked of state intervention was the one which had always denounced that policy. Iless than a year ago Liberal members were pleading that business be left alone.

After the morning service the presentation was made in Tyne Valley United Church by a representative of the congregations who read the fol- lowing address: Dear Rev.

It was in the line of duty, I belong to the Sal- vation Army," said Powell. He had made a practice of holding Sunday school sessions at the house with members of the family. “I discon- tinued the Sunday School in Aug- ust cf 1935 but I continued going to the Bannister home about every two weeks. Therc was no particular reason for closing the Sunday School classes." ' The witness said he had three life insurance policies and had told the Bannister family that if a business deal were successful he would tum some of his insurance over to Marie and Frances, l5, the other daughter. On his visits to the house he usually brought provisions with him.

She said that she had no doctor at the time of birth but that a. French woman, whom she did not know, had attended her at the time of birth and also for sev- eral days thereafter. I asked her where the baby had been since _ then and she told me that she had been staying at hotels with men, and item the baby with her." _ The baby was not concealed, said Randall. "It was on a bed iri the front room, downstairs. The baby had all new clothing on. It was well dressed.
