THE SABBA TH

DEMOCRACYS FIRST FUNDAUENTAI. RULE (By Donald MucKitinon, K. C.) ~

(Coiititiued from Yesterday)

As God did rest. tlie seventh day from all i-iis works. and as the first Adam after hls creation on tlic first moi-ii of his first day oii cart-ii b02811 to keep B’ Sabbath 01 rest, so also the second Adam oii the morn of His i-estirrcctiou life. when God rinsed Him from the dead, and likewise all believers 111 Him held with Hlin here below communion and fellowship 1n rap- turous delight. ova-r His finished work on that. first, great, Resurrection Sabbath Day. No new legal tem- porale enactment for the change was ueeemir)", (See Lev. 23-21 Acts 2. l-4.) His followers automatically and unconsciously ceased from their labours to lL‘i‘li‘li about Him and seek communion aiid rejoice in His presence oii tlic day on which He arose wlilcli ‘i\'.l.\ ilic prime ob- ject of the Sabbath. Likewise on the first day of the following week and of other weeks after He arose and after Ho ascended oii high and still until tlic prcsriit tlav Hls true follcwci"; have sought. euiiiiiiunioii and fellotvsliip it-iidt-riiii; to Hint thanksgiving and praise for tlic great deliverance wrought.

The Jews and all others, who ignore the death and resurrection of Clirlst, may reasonably observe the so called seventh tin)" or Sutur- day 21,5 they know no other, but the Jews day of restoration is yet to come, when he will realize liis error and the true significance ‘of the sin offering, and when those days of purging, purify-lug and con- secration are expzrccl, (Ezek 43. 26) it. shallb .6 as told by the prophet. Ezekiel (Ezek. 4'3, 271 "That upon the eigilitli day aiid so forward” the priests shall make their offerings and they shall be acct-pied.

Titus the Psalmist (Ps. 118, 22-24) foretold to tlic chris an the Lords Day lie iioiv obscri s rice t-lie re- stirrectiou bit: w cli lllf‘ Jew tl-ien failed to recognize tAt-ts 4, 10-12); and Ezekiel 143, 27) foretells to t-lie Jew this same clay lie too wlll 3'61; observe when lie comes to realize the atoning work of Christ. and lIlS victory o'er the grave wnicli before ne ignored or tailed to recognize.

Nctivitlistaudirig tlic fact that the believer is no longer under law but. under grace the necessity for strict observance of one day lii seven still remains. There is every reason ivliy its due observance should be ad- hered to in oiii- day as strictly a5 in the earlier clays. The commandment with regard to the sabbath is made part. of tlic- moral lnw and just as binding as the other time.

1b) There ls a mistaken idea a- mong some that, tlic sabbath was for tlic Jew xiiervly. ‘This may arLsc front tlic failure t0 illstiiigtilsh be- tween the moral and the cere- monial law boi-li of which were given upon the Mount. The Cere- monial, however, \\'lIlCl\ had to 110 with the typical sacrifices, came to an end when the great, sacrifice WlllClT they typified was offered up i.»n_Ci_alvary_ and the ceremonial law pointing to this, of necessity ended with liis fulfilment. The Sabbath however, was established before Jews existed, even before man had sinned when there was n0 necessity for laws wltli respect to sacrifices. The sabbath iriis. made known at: Sliitll. when the other command- ments were given although existing before. (Ne-h £1, 141. The command M. Sinai was to remember it and to keep it holy,

Christ clearly stated that the sabbath was made for maxi. that, .s, for niiiiikitid Jew and Gentile. 1r. may be quite true that for a. time Jews alone observed 1t, for, uihen the whole world had become cor- rupt. to the Jews alone were deliv- ered the oracles of God, but lt was a positive law from the creation of man, and after sin entered liito the would, it continued a positive law with its additional negative claus- es because of transgression, and so l: shall continue until the end of time. and. when sin shrill be no more. its pus-live side shall still continue as an eteriiai sabbath or rest. unbroken contemplation of God's finished work, and in coin- munion and fellowship with Him throughout eternity,

OWLS, HUNS AND BOUNTIES

slr,--In recent issues of this paper letters have appeared by We Minister of Agriculture concerning iils special protege, those birds 0! great. importance and immeasur- able value to the farmers of P. B. 1., the Hungarian Partldge. For these birds the Minister has _de- clai-ed open war on the beautiful and rare owls. and on the man who might venture to shoot at them. A bounty is offered the farmer for capturing the elusive c-tvl and we presume a. bounty for capturing the man with a gun.

Now, I like birds greatly but when a public servant, paid a huge salary out of the meagre earnings of the people of P, E. I. devotes his time to one species of iviid fowl, then I tlilnk we were well _r1d of that particular bird. By selling them at. the figure ‘lufilfd by $1111 ivfiuister last. week, the Island debt could be wiped out; and perhaps have enough left. over to continue the premium on liogs, wlitcli ls to be discontinued, as mmouiieed re- cently. Of course, no doubt, the intention lii offering the bounty for capturing creatures prcylng on those “I-Itins" was t0 compensate for the toss of the premium oii hogs. Tl".e farm-er could chase owls and guiitiei-s instead of Drﬂdliclnt;

belief‘ pork, as both umiouiice- meiits came at HD0111" the 5M1"! time.

BLACKOUT SUGGESTIONS

Sin-Our Monday "Blackout"

raved an interesting expenment mm many points of vlew. The darkness, the wardens stalking abzut in the dark. the planes over- head gave it a bit of i-c-arsm. The wardens dld their Jobs well, no doubt.

However, it seems to me that iii several senses it was not quite as perfect. as lt. night have been, and we ought, probably to have a few more trials to bring the experi- ment down as near to the real thing as possible. The high author- ities resptiislble for oiganlzlng the whole affair are quite aware, I should believe, of the followinl that I suggest but they failed in lnfonnlng t-lm public well, through the press. of n proper blackout.

(it Signals. There 1s the matter of signals. In Suiiinierslde we had the fire alarm. Next tiirte we hear that siren we will wcnder whether 1t. ls fire or a rald. Reducing the number of blasts from tiie siren from eight. to four dces not. help mucli for those lii the more dis- tant. parts of town seldcm hear all the blasts at the best. and hence cannot well count. them. I believe Summerstde Ls thlnldng o! install- lng several horns throughout the town. That. will be an improve- ment. However. Will tficsc be uu- lfcnn with the oth~r blackout areas? For the travelling public

, may becCme confused when lodg-

ing 1n a, strait e town. One uses a fire siren. ano her a bell. another a. horn. I understand Charlotte- town had no sfgnal-Jif so, what. R. signal failure! Our enemy will not. let u; know beforehand that. he will come 9:3) Monday night.

(21 Time. I believe a better trlnl might. have been made if the pub- llc had been Iii2~llfl0d that a black- out. would be field sometime t-he week of Jim. 19 1p 2t instead of telling us the exact time. Our en- emy wlll not tell us ll‘.(‘ time he cctiuas. This should be bettcrcd in our next. trial,

13) Telephones. It appears to rne that our next. trial signal ought. to Come from Haltfivt. or Sydney or some o'f1er remote point. where we may expect lt to come from tn the future. ‘the telephone operators should close off their svi-ltchboarrls to all private conversations and give a distinct uniform signal ail rural telephone users. who have not the benefit of the town sig- nals. I; there such a revision? it. seems to me imeouiibe to inform remote homes without telephones.

(t) Blackout Rooms. I do not suppose that. 5 per cent of the people made any attempt. to "blackout." a rocm tn their home.

They m-eroiy switched eff their lights. ’I‘hat is not. what the nu- lhorlt-ies want-but. they said nothing about it. Out next trial

should see that the. lights are on tn one rocm of the house, at least, but. that. the window is "blacked- out" The wardens ought. to be in- iit-ructed to ran at e~ch d*or to nee that the lights are on In one room. but. that no ilvht shows out Tint ls real blackout. Your paper carried one excellent. auggest1¢n_ Toronto Saturday Night carried a pale of such suggestions. The kitchen L1 the best room tn moat

J

0f course. who am I to rem n our authorities of their failures, but. the public should know better wnat- to d» in blackout. We had a lot of "ker-p cool", "keep inside", instructions. They could well have ecnie later. My humble suggestions oughttobecarried out. lii our next trial, gay the first week tn Eel)- i-uary. if our enemy does not. izive iis a trial befsre that.

I am, Sir, etc.
