We are up in the North among the rocks and trees of Ontario's glorious holiday country. Hundreds of these trees we planted as tiny gegdlings, and we have watched met: growth until now they tower gway above our heads. Now they are teaching us lessons about life in relationships. This, first of all -no life lives by itself or to itself. Each life originated in a relation. ship and creates new relationships ., it grows. As we listen for the truths they teach. we are remind- rd of the church we love, through which spiritual life first came to us, and to which our lives have been

Frail and delicate though each leaf is in itself, it is helping IO build up the strength of the free which stands unmoved ihrough the years against the tem- pests of a northern cllme. it re- minds us that although each in- dividual may feel insignificant as a member of his church, he is, nevertheless, doing his part in building up the body of the tree of life which not only withstands the storms of Time, but through them and by means of the elements which they disturb, produces the fruits which God desires.

leaves of this year came into being and action, and they are now the channels through which the life- currents flow to and fro. By the contribution which they are making to the growth of the tree they are themselves built up in size and strength.-So. as I look over my church I notice that the new ideas and ministries of a new age come through the. young people of each generation. We older folk still have our place: it was through the tee- timony of Christian experince that the new life was quickened in the rising generation and we are still channels through which currents of divine grace reach them; but the vitalizing processes in each generation youth must carry on if the Church of God is to grow and be fruitful.

Our trees in this region show us how life overcomes difficulties and cnemies.1-Iere are trees growing on bare rock; here are poplars stripped of their leaves by the cat-- erpillars ptitting forth new lcavcs' that growth may continue.

It is interesting to note how the phrase "baker's dozen" orig- inated. "A baker's dozen" is the hum-drum one resulting from the imposition of a heavy fine for short weight when bread was sold by the pound loaf. To avoid any possibility of short weight. an ex- tra. loaf was thrown in with ev- ery dozen loaves sold. This used to be called the unbread and was cut up to add to any of the 1;:

loaves which fell short of the standard 1 lb. or 2.lbs. There was supposed to be a

rivalry between the rivers of Scot- land for the life of a. man. It is expressed thus:

Believe it or not. but a can of beef from England sclls for lcsz. in Canada than a raw cut raised from a cow in Prince Edward Is- laild. It's interesting to follow the history of so called "Made in England" canned beef and show.-; the diabolical planning whicli goes on behind such it little thinr; as a can of braisrd hecf. Thc story: The contents of Illcbc cans grew up in the Arccnlim-. Tiicn it was shipped to the Old Coun- try where it was procrsst-fl scu- soned, Cantu-d, and finally ox- ported to this country where it.

went on the market for 41C, or 42',-L- per pound. The economics of the deal is

without common sense. for when one considers the ethics of '1 meat-starved island shipping beef to Canada, one woiulcits how rur- iupt any system can get.

We've lived to see good cotton ploughed under, pigs slaughtered and burned, farmers paid for crops that were never growii, and many other strnngc liappcnings on the farm front-all in the face of desperate need, and now, Eng- land shipping canned beef to a. country where hosts of cuttlc are raised. What next?

In former times a woman who was a shrew was often roughly treated. Sometimes she was duck- ed in it pond or made to do pen- ance in the church. But. a more savage punishment was the bronk. This was a sort. of iron lllll7.ll') with a bit for the mouth, and R cord and chain attached by which the wretched woman was led through the streets. The bronk was used in parts of England in I623 and in Scotland filtv yezir. before that. This gatlgct was ar- ranged so tlmt cvcry movement of the tongue inflicted pain. Painted red, white and blue. it was kept by an officer of the lord of the manor and used when the market women got out of control. Men who were tied to the Damn Van Winkle kind of wives would
