risen and glorified conqueror of Death. Peter. in commenting on this fact, said in one breath that

Death could not hold Him down and in the next breath that God could not let Him be held down and raised I-Ilm from the dead. We

. have Just been singing the Easter hymns and Joining in the Easter glsdhess, but under all that Easter means to the modern world is this solid fact that Jesus, the represen- tative of our race. broke the bonds of sin and death on our behalf.

What a supendous conception it is_.Life, not death is the ultimate destiny of men! What a. stupend- ous realization it is as it comes home to us one by one that we are involved in His Victory!

Back of this foundation fact of the victory of the Lord of Life is the rock on which it rests-God and man reconciled through His death. The basis or the new life is the new relationship established by Christ's sacrifice for us. Do not let us here got into any discussion of the How and Why of the Atone- ment. Enough for us here that the Son of God identified Himself with men in their struggle Godward, going the full length with us in bearing our sins, with the result that we may be identified with Him in His victory. This implies a A ving saviour who both delivers us from the evil we have brought on urselves and gives us eternal life.

Often we hear people laughing

t those ualous ones who ask those whom they meet, "are you saved?" Nevertheless there is a sublime reality behind the simple query: it implies that there is one standing by who is ready to do everything for you and in you that is nec- essary for your salvation.‘ He is

ready to not new and what He does now stands forever.

There is always an element of rescue in that idea of “savlng" men. A missionary was once trying to ring this idea home to the hearts

‘of an African tribe. but for weeks he could not find in their language l. word to express it. No _amount of inquiry could get that word out of them. one night he was sit- ting with a group of natives around a camp-fire. when an old hunter began to tell of the way he had once rescued a boy from a lion. The missionary was on the alert at once, watching for the word he wanted. ‘but the story ended without it. He was just sinking back into his us- ual discouragement, when the old man added reflectively: “Yes, I saved him." The missionary sprang to his feet, exclaiming: “This is what I have been trying t‘ tell you all these weeks——Jesu.s has saved us. Just as this man saved the lad from the lion of the son of God has saved us. from sin and death." The New Testament doctrine of salvation is broader and dee;er far than any such illustration, and yet there is in it the truth that Christ takes our‘part. and. by getting in- to the conflict on our side. uses His might on our behalf. l-k does deliver all who trust Him from every evil that can threaten them. He is waiting at this moment to do for each what He has made possible for all. 4 This fact bears directly on ‘the needs that we feel personally. A reader of this column has just writ- ten us to tell of ,‘ emanci- pation through Christ from the slavery of evil habit. Thereis noth- ing more direct and forceful in the New Testament than Christ's of-‘er of effective help in our fight against temptation. whether the temptation is in our own desires or from the outside. He is the mighty to save. But this same deliverance reaches out to deaih, sin'a hateful rogeny. with many of us the dea h of some close friend ‘has changed the whole world for us. Death had previously taken many others from our sight with- out making any deep impression, but when this companion was tak- en, a connection there was formed which changed radically our out- look on both the present‘and the f’iltul'e. At this point the Easter message comes home to our hearts. Because Christ lives our friend was in Himpwe ioosshail live in In’. Did not Jesus say, "Because I live. ye shall live also?" A living Christ is Christianity’: message to the world. Times with- .out number in the New Testament ‘is this presented as the supreme reality——the living Christ abides in the believer, and the believer abides in Him. The man to whom the living‘ lord and Saviour is ‘Reality may differ from me on many questions but is none the less my brother and my partner in the crowning work of the ages. Any- thing that keeps apart those who live in Christ is a sin against Him

. and His people. It is only through

our Joint testimony that.the world can ever know that God has rent Him‘ and that He is with us, the Victor, eager to share His victory with all who will receive I-lim.

Island Odds And Ends

Though winter may be lingering in the lap of spring. the business horizon looks clear and sunny, ac‘- cording to the forecast of Messrs Paul Gallant and Art Peters who operate the Easinrn Packers plant in sourls.

The Bouris Company packs lob- sters, chicken haddie, ola.ms, beef, chicken, strawberries, all in their season. and so say the partners. there is a market for everything they pack either in Upper Canada or Newfoundland. They have at tllnes shipped -to South America.

Buying power for their products has not diminished in the slightest. Mr. Gallant states, and the com- pany could easily have sold much more of all types of food than it packed last year. The demand in- deed.was excellent and the trend looks every bit as good this year. Even chicken huddle, which be- cause of poor quality brands i‘Il.lmp- ed into Ontario several years ago by’ careless packers, suffered a black eye, was again in demand in

1969 and Eastern Packers sold many hundreds of cases of it. C C O The partners are strong on

strawberries for which they found a market in Newfoundland for all they could pack. They believe tint any farmer who cuts his potato avenge a bit and puts some land in -strawberries would be making a wise and profitable venture. Mr. Peters ea lained that our straw- berries are the last to ripen" and can be sold in the American mar- ket at their best, after other ber- ries have been harvested. The Is- land crop can be transported in refrigerator trucks to New England in prime condition where they are building a. good reputation for quality and flavor. The left-over strawberries can be canned sav Messrs Gallant and Peters and sold without any trouble. The} are con- fident there is a future in the berry trade, and that if the Island acre- age is built up and good market relations established. Island fann- ers will not be as dependent on the fluctuations in the price of a bush- el of potatoes.

Thirty-five people are employ- ed at present, all of them. busy all beavers canning chicken. Under the registered trade name "Eastpak" several thousand cases of the young birds are rapidly being put up before the lobster season or- rives. The chicken are brought here from Western Canada and ev- ery lot is looked over ‘very care- fully by a government inspector who never leaves the plant while canning is underway. This is not only a vprotection for the public but also to the plant operators, who realize the necessity of proper in- spoetion. . .

By May 10th when lobster fish- ermen start haullng traps, the present -staff of thirty five at Eastern‘ Packers will have Jumped to eighty. and the well-ecu!-Dped plant will bustle with activity. A good proportion oi these will be women, but whether women or men. all are clad in oleansmocks or sprons, and the canning rooms are kept extremely clean and wholesome. Large cold storage rooms make it easy to‘ maintain the highest standards of sanitu» tion. Until recently the offices of Eastern Packers were maintained in a building separate from the plant but a short while no 1'00-XIV quarters were built on the second .iloor of the packing establishment. rounding out an efficient lay-out

Another Island product which the partners believe will compete successfully in New England mar- kets. thanks to refrigerated motor trucks is fresh cod fillets. These fillets are quickly absorbed by New Englanders always provided they reach the States fresh and Well- prepared. The only obstacle in sight is trucking regulations which might so out the profits as to kt“ the initiative of shippers. Glvcn the right: incentive howovet. the fillet trade has bright prospects in the opinion of these two exper- ienced shippers. If draggers bc~ come common, fishing out of Island

such as Bourls, the fish they bring to port will be grist for the machines which turnout East- pak canned goods. Neither Mr. Gallant nor Mr. Peters have any fear that their introduction ‘will be anything but beneficial to the Island fishing industry.

B1-imful of optimism as they are, Messrs Gallant and Peters believe that a small fish-meal plant would be a, paying enterprise for any- one with the initiative to estab- lish one. There are many fish around Island coasts which would go into this kind of animal a1d chicken food which at present go 1 to waste. They mentioned the mil- uons oi Silversides 3&3 one species of high protein content which could be utilised in fish meal. It is not hard to realize what an asset the Eastern Packing Com- town like Bonds and to the whole of Eastern’ Kings. The Company not only gives employ- ment to many people practically the year round, it buys the catch of large numbers of fishermen, gives extra employment to truck- ers, is a large buyer of fishing and other supplies. and in general tones up the whole community through its push and drive.

Any Islander who tends to be gloomy about the future sale of Island products will lose his pess- imism after a visit to Eastern Packers. To prove that they have faith in their own convictions they go right on cannnlng foods, day-in, day-out,. certain that a market is ready to take anything they offer foxhsale. Their optimism is inspir- ing. - -

The many friends of Mil. C. Tupvper Ferguson. Miarshileld. were shocked to lea.rn of her sudden Pflfilng on Febnialry 18th. at the P. E. Island Hospital after a few days illness.

Mabel Louise Enman was born in Pawn-al where she lived (with the exception of two winters spent in Ottawa) until her marriage to Mr. Ferguson in June, 1919.

After her brother's death she patiently and tenderly cared for her invalid mother for the several years she was spared as well as taking care of her sister Ethel. to whom she continued to minister unto to within a. few days prev- ions to her own death. being a faithful attendant at her sister's bedside in the sanatorlwm where Ethel is a patient.

Mabel was a valued megnber of Pownal United Church. the WMS. and Choir and was always willing to help with her talents when cir- cumstances permitted.

Mabel possessed fine qualities of mind and heart. had a keen sense of humor and was of a bright cheery nature. It has been said by those who knew her best, that n frown was never seen on Meibei's face.

The iunerarl at Dunstaftnage United Church was largely attend- ed. The service was conducted by Rev. Mr. Douglas. Marry beautiful flowers paid tribute to her mom- 011/
