BIBICAL PICTURES

The timid soul aippeaxa in the Bible. There he stands in full stet- ure-a really speaking likeness. He is the man oi’ the one talent in Jesus’ parable. Having an inferior- ity complex, this man was afraid. Being afraid, and doing nothing, he of course had to devise an alibi. characteristically putting the blame upon someone else; in this case. upon his employer or Lord. It wll a defence gesture, at once insolent and vilifying. “I know thee." said he, "that thou are a hard man"—thus impugniiig his lords character.

The Timid S/vul is seldom timid with his tongue. Commonly start- ing by pllyiiiiz self. this man con- tinues by riliiylng others-notably his benefactors-and concludes with both impcrtinence and falsehood. Falling out of ones job, one natur- ally blames the boss. Turning from ones church" one scatters the blame -tlie preacher too narrow, the ser- mons too long. the music no good! Before walking out either upon fob home or church, it might be well for one to take an afternoon off some day. and examine one's self. It ma)‘ be trouble within-a coin~ plex.

The troubles of people are al- ways within. For this reason all are enjoined to repent. It means to set one's self right with the nature of things. It means to believe not only in 00d. but also in the fairness of things. That way. lie victory, useful- lies! and peace. That wily. salvat- _lori in two worlds. Both God and inature are on the side-not of iii:- brazen-but. oi the brave.

“Tl-IE GRENFELI, STAMP"

Stamp milk-cling is one of the favorite hobbies of a great many people. and because tlicre are so many stamps in the world, some collectors luiiit their collection to one particular area of the world. There are many line collections of the British Empire, and Newfound- land is the oldest colony of the Em- pire. The present Newioundland stamp. with a fine picture oi a. caribou; head with huge antlers. is to be replaced by a fivc ccni. stamp with a fine portrait of sir Wilfred Grcniell.

This picture shows Grcnfell at the bridge of his hospital ship. look-

To-day Newfoundland has more men overseas per Chpltp of popul- ation than any other British colony. The United States has a large nav- al base on Newfoundland and in every centre were soldiers are quar- tered around the whole world. the hospitality or Christian homes and Recreation Centres under Christian auspices must combat the temptat- ion to the men in uniform to drink in lonely free time. A letter which has lust arrived from a missionary in Newfoundland makes this slim-l‘ icant comment.

Canadian Army on Manoeuvres, Somewhere in EnglamL-You prob- ably never heard of the Battle of Long Crendon. It will not go down in the history of this war. No Axis troops have been defeated in the hills overlooking the picturesque English town called Long Crendon. Yet it was an important battle to the men in the war oﬁice, poring over maps and blueprints. who are responsible for the strategy of our coming offensive. These men will remember Long Crendon because it tested the efﬁclency of Canadian transport. “The dagger pointed at the heart of Berlin" is the Canadian army that must be thrust forward on wheels. Long Crendon proved that Canadians have the wheels and the men to drive them. The “battle” occurred during the great Canadian-British manoeuvres just completed. I was with the Cana- dians spearheading the attack at the fringe of the “enemy” line. A ' break-through at this point was important to the whole cainpaignp Time was short. The zero hour for the battle of Long Crendon was set for six-thirty under lengthening shadows of a setting sun. Transport had to be brought up fast-carriers. artillery, anti-aircraft, ammunition supplies, tanks. Hundreds of vehicles roared through the English countryside. They sped over asphalt highways and struggled across water-logged meadows and rutted country roads. This was a test of speed and mechanical efﬁciency. Then six-thirty-the zero hour. Our troops moved across a wide valley to attack on high ground over- looking Long Crendon. War Ofﬁce referees examined our dispositions. The transport was there-all of it. Every supply truck, every carrier, every motor-drawn ﬁeld piece was in its proper place. mudsplattered but triumphant. Referees gave us the nod. Our men and supplies had arrived in time and in sufficient superiority to overwhelm the "enemy”. That's the brief story of the battle of Long Crendon. You won't read it in history books. _Long Crendon that when the great offensive starts the Canadian dagger will be thrust forward on wheels. with a hundred per cent. efficiency. There was no more signiﬁcant feature of this gruelling l0 days’ work- out than the magniﬁcent performance of the Canadian Army's
