Love the p���������b* *%* *a_r_������_������_, c_.v__._4- *-__ Us, verses 12-16.���������God's presence cannot be seen, but it can be appreciated by its results: where love is seen in man. it prove-s the presence o^ Grid's Spirit within him. And God's love is completed in us; His abiding in us is the most complete expression of His love. Through the Spirit which God has given us, we have the consciousness of actual fellowship with God. Furthermore, we have another great proof of KSs love, which we have beheld and bear witness (we who lived with Him on earth have seen Him with our eyes and to His life we can testify) in that the Father hath sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world. He who confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, lives in true fellowship with God. And we who saw Jesus know the love which God hath for us. God is love and he that abideth in love abideth in God, and God abideth in him. "There is only one Love, and our love, whatever it may be, is merely an infinitesimal * expression of that love." Love In Relation To the Day Of Judgment, verses 17^' :2j���������������We may j know that, love is made perfect with jus, when we can look forward with co__fide__c<_ to the great day of Judgment, because as He is even so are we in this wofld.

We are to so live that our life shall repeat the life of Jesus of Nazareth."��������� Alexander McKenzie. "Fear springs from the consciousness that punishment is deserved, and from the expectation, that it will be inflicted. Love emancipates from fear." There is no fear in love, but perfect love casteth out fear. "One result of love made perfect is absence of fear, confidence that bota here and hereafter no real evil can overtake us. To be in God, to be as Christ is, must mean safety."���������Hugb Blac*;.

Th������ase laboratories were first organized and established in Montreal in 1913. On account of the rapid development of the pulp and paper industry and the, increase in the uses to which"wood is being put, demands on', the services of the Laboratories have correspondingly increased. Its work is carried out in three different centres, -viz., Ottawa, Montreal, and Vancouver. The importance of Pacific Coast problems, as well as the. great distance from the Montreal laboratories, made it necessary to open in 1918 a branch laboratory in Vancouver, and since its establishment the work of this laboratory has increased steadily. It is excellently accommodated in buildings provided by the province on the grounds of the University of British Columbia in.. Vancouver. The research program of tbe Laboratories in Montreal -was for several years seriously handicapped on account of limited and unsuitable accommodation. Besides, the pulp and paper industry had so many technical problems requiring attention that it offered to provide "the pulp and paper division of the laboratories with better accommodation for its work. The old buildings were therefore demolished in 1927 to make way for the pulp and paper research Institute and. the main laboratories were moved to Ottawa, where excellent facilities were available. The main laboratories at Ottawa are operated under eight divisions as follows: Wood Preservation, Timber Mechanics, Lumber Seasoning, Timber Pathology. Timber Physics, Wood Utilization, Markets and Exhibits, and Office Administration.

Discussing Support 'Fswr Canadian Dollar FRltlXTF :;tSae_i One For All; All For One Speaking to the brilliant gathering of celebrities assembled at the recent Lord Mayor's banquet at the Guildhall, Premier Ramsay MacDonald declared: "We have heen witnessing the complete breakdown of the doctrine of national economic self-sufficiency." ���������Truer, more -ag_--__<____-t words have selcS-Msi bees "uttered, but It is doubtful if people generally bave yet come to a fnil realisation of how futile tho doctrine of self-sumciency is, regardless ox iiie fetvl vw.aeu_.cr ii is .applied in the realm of national economics or in the narrower sphere of an individual's life. Belief that one is sufficient unto oneself is an outgrowth of egotism which in itself is a sign of weakness and a fatal defect in character. Belief in oneself is essential to success, but to take the position that incorporated within ourselves are all the elements essential to succss, that nothing, more is needed, that we, and we alone apart from everybody and everything, ban achieve, is a mistaken, a fatal attitude. And -what is true of the individual is equally true of nations and peoples. During the progress of the Great War the nations of the world learned that Heavy . Discount Proves Boomerang To United" States Business ': United States banking and business" interests are finding the heavy discount on the Canadian dollar somewhat of a boomerang and are considering action to alleviate their distress. ''.'"���������'" / The New "STorls Herald-Tribune, in a financial page Item, remarking that banking interests, in this country are taking note of the situation, says there Is tails in Wall Street of "sup-" port" for the Dominion currency. "It was pointed out." says the paper, "that the further the Canadian dollar declines the more difficult it becomes to do business with Canada. If prices are scaled up to meet the deficiency realised on exchange, it naturally becomes quite impossible to compete with Canadian or British goods in tho Dominion. It is reasoned that I*Ts\v York's iniei'^sis in ?_mt-sorting the Canadian dollar should receive additional support from banks end corporations whieh have bank balances in Canada. Corporations whose subsidiaries operate in Canada but pay dividends to parent companies on this side of the border should also be interested in supporting the Canadian dollar." Just what form, the "support" would take is not pointed out, but the Herald-Tribune says it is "recognized generally it would be cf mutual- benefit." Urge Use Of Home Products % Building Industry Said To Be Importing Huge Quantities "Of .-Materials T ��������� An indictment of the building ^industry for .impdrting millions of dollars* worth of materials annually, at the expense of similar- produced-in-r Canada goods is made in a.survey released by the Montreal, -industrial commission on unemployment. The survey, based on a year's work by Norman Holland, chairman of the commission, will toe mailed to all members of the Royal Architectural Institute of Canada, it is announced.

The Great War was a struggle for the supremacy of one of two conflicting ideas or principles in government,���������democracy versus autocracy. Either autocracy as represented by the German Kaiser and based on militarism, or democracy as represented by those countries having constitutional governments based on" the will, of the people governed, had to prevail. Autocracy was defeated and democracy triumphed. Out of that triumph arose the demand for the "self determination of peoples," and several new nations came into being. Unfortunately, these little nations felt impelled first of all to develop a so-called national spirit, and to attempt to snake their new found independence as nations secure, by making themselves supposedly self-contained, self-sufficient. To that end they strove to shut other nations, and the peoples and products of other nations, out. In doing so, they actually shut themselves in. The interdependence taught by the Great War was lost in the nationalistic, T economic Struggle which succeeded the war. But, as Ramsay MacDonald points out* this doctrine of national and economic self-sufficiency has completely broken down. One nation suffers loss of trade, and all nations find they, too, are suffering as a result. Unemployment develops in one country and automatically the resultant loss of purchasing power by the citizens of that country brings about-unemployment in other countries which formerly did business with it. The United States is, perhaps, the most compact, self-contained nation in the world today. Its national policies for many decades have been developed in that belief. Yet today the United States is .suffering enormous declines 4n trade, with millions of its people unmeployed, with its government facing a deficit this year of the stupendous sum of two billions of dollars. Why? Because the prosperity of the United States is dependent upon the prosperity of other nations; because, despite all its proud boastings' in the past, It is not a self-contained country, its self-sufficiency is not sufficient; because world depression prevails and the United States cannot escape its calamitous results. The cities and towns of Western Canada, as well, and the doctors, lawyers, bankers, merchants,.insurance and financial men, artisans and laborers who make up these urban communities are suffering today because, first of all, the farmers are suffering through loss of crops, low prices for what they have succeeded in producing, inability to market their produ.ee at a prbfit. Nothing else is wrong with the cities and towns, but the fact that the great primary industry of this country, agriculture, upon which they depend just as truly as do tlie farmers themselves, has been stricken. The cltLes and towns, are not sufficient unto themselves; they are dependent on the farms. And the farmers, in turn, are dependent upon the great consuming masses in the cities of the world to purchase their produce. Each class is dependent on the other; all are interdependent. May this great lesson of tho war and of these difficult post-war years sihlt In the consciousness of all people, may it become indelibly engraved in the memories of all, never to be forgotten, may it convince the statesmen of th*. world that their policies must in future bo based in interdependence rather than in self-sufficiency, and founded on a largo and broad internationalism rather than in a selfish, narrow nationalism. copies are sold or given away each year.

Colonization Progrees Many People Settled On Land Under Government Policy The policy of encouraging colonization within Canada, instituted in September last year by Hon. W. A. Gordon, Minister of Immigration, and conducted in the ������orm of a co-ordinate effort by the department and railway companies, has resulted in return to the land of approximately 42,882 people, according to a statement made public at Ottawa. Detailed returns to November 30, 1931, show a total of 6,040 families and 12,682 single men have been placed on farms since October 1,1930, the former as settlers and the single- men as farm laborers.

Sales by candy stores also "were greater. Retail sales by furniture stores and by general department stores also were reported larger.

"But," adds the Times, "much more than government departmental preparation is required to make the Ottawa conference a success.

Th?s announcement is made in a statement issued by Hon. Murray Maclaren, Minister of Pensions and National Health, en amendments to the Pension Act, in which Col. Maclaren sets out that the policy Of the three bodies adjudicating pensions is .to deal first with the most urgent cases. The statement of the Minister reads: "Amendments to the Pension Act in 1930. providing for a pension tribunal, pension appeal court and veteran's bureau, constituted a radical change in the administration of the Pension Act. Further amendments covered the restoration to pension of final payment cases and an extension of the legislation "respecting widows. . "The result of the restoration of final payment cases has been that 9,318 pensions have been restored after medical examination showing that disability has persisted, without increase. In addition, since March 31, 1930, 2,329 final payment cases have been restored, owing to increasing disability. "The provision that widows married before January 1, 1930, should receive pension on the. death, from a war disability, of their husbands, has resulted in the award of 817 pensions.
