The report contains a recom- mendation that all Theological Colleges of the United Church have. as a minimum. five full- timc professors.
Dr. Pidgeon's committee express- ed conviction that "in such an hour nothing is ore important than the strengthen ng of our Col- leges for their essential task of recnrlting and training adequate- ly our candidates for the minis- try." The report also supports the present policy oi the nited Church 01 "training men from the field on the field for the field."

Several changes in the person- nel oi headquarter officials of the United Church of Canada are in- dicated in the report oi the Com- mittee on Vacancies.
The Very Rev. Jesse H. Arnup. former Moderator of the United Church of Canada. and secretary of the Board of Overseas Missions. will be retiring from his post in June, 1952, and the Committee on Vacancies. under the chairrnan- ship of Rev. Dr. G. G. D. Kilpatrick will recommend to General Coun- cil that Rev. David H. Callagher. now associate secretary of the Board oi Overseas Missions. be named to succeed Dr. Arnup.
The Committee on Vacancies will suggest to General Council that Rev. Mr. Gallagher's successor on the Board should be one who has served in one of the overseas mlslon iields..
Iiesiglsations
Resignation of W. J. I-lolliday as secretary oi the Committee on Lay Activities will require the ap- pointrnent ad a successor. The name of Ralph C. Young. Hallisx. formerly of the Y.M.C.A. and the Maritime: Religious Education
oral Council.
Resignation of Rev. Dr. It. C. Chalmers. aaociste secretary of the Board oi Evangeli and Social Service. who has been named Professor of Theology at the Andrew's College. Ssdtatoon. will require the appoinhnent by General Council of a successo. Rev. Robert S. Christie. graduate of the Uuniverslty of Alberta and St. Stephen's Theological College. will be nominated assistant sec- retary of the Board to fill a vac- ancy caused by the retirement of Dr. Hugh Dobson.
The General Council will also be reminded that in four years Rev. Dr. Kenneth J. Bea-ton. sec-

Dr. Beeton's Com- mittee. its the light of this, will ask General Council to set up a Commission to daudy the future of missionary education in the United Church. in its submission to General Council the Committee has suggested that there is some overlapping in the education and promotion work carried on by the Board of Christian Education. the Missionary and Maintenance!'und and Dr. Beaton's Commltte. More co-ordination in the whole field oi moving pictures. television and radio and wider use 01 these media by the church is recom- mended.

Set- ting up oi a committee on "Com- munity Relations" ia suggested by that group. Its function would be to counsel and cooperate with the Boarth of the Church. to in- form church members of the work of the church and to discover and use the media best suited to in- terpret the work of the church.

BIRDS IN YOUR BACK YARD
&....
"sparrows are the only birds that ever come into our back yard." is too common a remark of the city dweller. 'nsose who are bird con- acioua can see many varieties with- out leaving their own homes. Quite a. low nest within hearing oi heavy traffic every summe . there are ni- ways permanent residents that thrill us on wintry days, and many transients appear in migration sea- son.
Long billed, bob tailed. dark birds are now. in some localities. out- numberlng English sparrows. Many of these starlings occupy crannies under our eaves all win- ter. Bmwn creepers. White-breaah ed Nuthstches, Hairy and Downy woodpeckers may climb our tree trunks any month in the year, but we are more liable to see them once the leaves have fallen. Juncos. dressed in grey. with white on each side of their tailan should be look- ed for on the ground. They often stay around throughout winter, as do also some Purple Finches and Goldfinches.
one cold January day a big Barred owl sat sleeping on a branch of an elm tree within three yards of one of our bedroom win- dows. Automobiles passed honk- ing their horns, doors of delivery vans banged. we took its photo- graph. but nothing disturbed its slumber until after dusk. And

compliment. or did anything to interest and amuse her. so wife I015 bored with such an uninteresting companion and took to fretting and complaining or buying things by way of revenge. and said. in effect. "Oh. heck. what's the use In wearing myself out in setting up I good dinner for a man who is going to growl over it BPIYWHY." and slapped something from the delicatessen down on the table.
Oh yes. it certainly would pay a man to keep his wife in love with him because as long as a woman is in love-with a man she breaks her neck to please him.
DEAR DOROTHY DIX: I was engaged to a widow but through some misunde standing we quarreled and parted and I went. to an- other 'city to live. While there I became closely acquainted with another woman. I learned to like her. but she is madly in love with me. I returned home. whereupon this woman insisted upon visiting me quite often in the interest of an early marriage. In the mean- time. the wldow and I made up and I realized more than ever that it is she whom I love. I very much want to marry the widow. but fear the other woman will become heartbroken and despondent.
i A. B.
ANSWER: It must be terrible to be such a devil of a chap among the women. but I am afraid you will have to decide which one of these lovelorn ladies you prefer. since the law takes a narrow view of marriage and limits us to one spouse at a time.
Apparently you are a sympathetic man and don't like to hurt the feelings of a lady. but how can you help it since both women love you and you can marry only one? Such being the case. I think that you should marry the woman you love rather than the one who loves you. That would insure the greatest amount of happiness to the greatest number. I might. indeed. say the greatest happiness to all concerned. since no man can be a good husband or make a woman happy if he rnarrles her from a sense of duty. or because she dogs him into it.
DEAR MISS DIX: To settle an argument will you tell us what you think of a boy who will let a girl acquaintance casually treat him to a soda or a package of cigarettes or a show? Some of our friends do it. but it seems distasteful to us. TWO BOYS
ANSWER: In the old days when girls were dependent upon their parents and never had even a thin dime in their pocketbooks. it was up to man to always pay the money for every treat. But now when girls work side by side with men in offices and get just as much pay it is Just as much her part to pay as it is the boy's. In fact. if a girl doesn't furnish her own cigarettes and go on dutch treat with the boys or make it up in some way by inviting them lb her house to meals or furnishing the car when they go out or pre- tending to have theatre tickets now and then. she is rather a grailer.
