Newell Dwight Hillil once told , story of a painter who began his career with brilliant promise. creative work of the first order seemed to be before him. Then in early manhood he fell Into come flagrant sin. From that time forward his art lost its creative quality. After that, said we writer quoted. "rhere was mud in the eye of every angel he painted." He still retained his skill: it was only his vision that :i.n had dimmed. He still gained me applause of his world and Med full of years and honors. no one less conscious than he that he had passed the pea.k of his (FEBLIVC power many years be- fore.

Moral evil tolerated in one's hie cannot but dim the vision of the soul and weaken its powers. The "one thing more" lthat marks 'hc genius sin attacks and holds unwu to the eprth.

There is one verse in the ,,,-cphecy of Amos which struck "kc a lightning bolt through Z,-rael's complacency: "You only have I known of all the families .L the earth: therefore will I -.,sit upon you all your iniqui- W35." (Amos 3:2). They had been building their pride on ideas the very opposite. They were the .-iect nation. They were the most '-ughiy privileged people in the world, and the living God, the only real God. was theirs. At the bane when Amos wrote Victory had alighted on their banners arid riches followed in its train. Surely such prospe ity meant We divine favor. But, instead of prosperity leading to obedience and gratitude, it had led to vic- ous indulgence. And they im- agined that. because they were

No, said Amos. the very OPPOS- .:e is the truth. Privueze brinns 1-asiponsiibility. He pointed an ac- cusing finger at the wanton lux- airy of the rich. the oppression of "ho poor. and the vaunted devo- :ion of the victors kindling into lust on the very steps of the altar. They knew God's law. Ind. said Amos. the clearer the light

against which you pin. the darker your guilt, and the more ievere the punishment.

Jesus put this same truth in terms even more emphatic. "That servant who knew uhia Lord's Will. and made not ready. nor did according to His will. shall be beaten with many stripes; but he who knew not. and did things worthy of stripes. shall be boat. on with few stripes. And to whomsoever much is given, of him shnll much be required: and to whom they commit much, of him will they ask the more."

This is true of the nation. In 180:1. it was to the nation as such that Amos woke. History teaches that it is literally true ,that "Righteousness exalt: a na- 'tion: but sin is a reproach to any people."

Take a concordance of Bible and look up the word "Righteousness," it will terrify you. It is the only sure basis of a nation's greatness. Justice is the only foundation on which society can be built. Righteous- ,ness brings G s favor and its iopposite Hia wrath. God requires fa nation to establish righteous- iness in its laws and enforce it by its power. A nation connives at evil when it either authorizes imen to do wrong in its laws or iltolsraies their wrong-doing by His Policy: and in all such cases ithe nation as such assumes rc- 'i-ponsioility for the wrong-doing lolf its individual citizens. No na- ,tion that is guilty before God 4caii escape His judgments. St. ;Paulis words are as true of the nation as of the individual: "Be lnot deceived; God is not mock. -ed: for whatsoever a man sows. that shall he also reap."

Now Canada is I. favored country. A rich land has been given to us. We are just awaken- ing to resources richer far than ianything dreamed of by our fa- , ihers. It is impossible to overesti. mate the wealth of the moral and

spiritual heritage bequeathed to ,us by our fathers. As they haw- lcd down the forests and turned lihe wilderness into a garden, they Iworsliipped God and wrote His laws into the constitution of the inatlon and into the customs of the people.

In many ways we are now fail- ing to maintain the good which they made our portion. One does not want to be a prophet of blue ruin, but it is folly to shut our eyes to the fact that our gov- ernments are multiplying snares before the feet of youth. and are not only allowing men to make money by providing facilities for destructive halbits. but also ore sharing their gains. Then they expect to stop the evils which they provide for by punishing the ones trapped. Never let us fall to realize that when we as a people sow such seed, we shall. reap the harvest.

Often as individuals we em- phasize the bleuings God be- stows and forget His require- menits. God's grace means God bestowing on men His good gifts to the utmost of their capacity to receive. God always supplies ibefore He demands. He provides

. O'I'1'AWA-The declining qual- ity of the postal service these days is part of the price Can- adians must pay for national Security. according to the official view here.

The Post Office Department. which traditionally operates at a profit. threatened to drop into the red this year as I result of increased costs, of labor. mail movement and materials. This the government was determined to prevent, in view of the prior- iiy that defence has on the coun- try's revenues.

What it did was reduce deliv- erles in residential areas from two to one a day. wiping out the jobs of 1M0 letter carriers. and inu-euse rates for registered mail. parcel poet and circulars. The principal result was to put the Post Office back in the black. The secondary result was to demoralize the enitlre postal service, to foster antagonism to the program among the lettu- carriers. and to provoke dis- satisfaction with the mail ser- vice, particularly among business firms.

Considering all the circum- stances, few criticize the Gov- ernment for what it did. But there is room for criticism of how it did it.

Early this year the Postal Dc- partmen-t heads were told by their boss, Postmaster General Rinfret, to chop and streamline the organization so it wouldn't operate at a deficit in 1951. He in turn had received his orders from Treasury Board-the finan- cial committee of the cabinet. The immediate task was to get costs below revenues by April 1, the start of the government's fiscal year. Thatlmeant they had little more than two months in which to do a job which actually required six months to accomp- lish smoothly and with a mini- mum of service disruption.

The man responsible for whip- ping the Postal Department into the desired financial position is the deceptively mild mannered De-puty Postmaster General, Wal- ter J. Turnbull. In reality one of the tougest administrators in the public service. Tui-nlbuli worked untirlngly against the Government's April 1 deadline. If he had had more time, he might have avoided or at least minimized the unwanted after effects of the cost cutting pro- gram. But even lacking time. he did manage to reduce the actual firing of letter carriers from the proposed 1200 to 600 actually let

There's a behind-the-scenes fight going on between Maj. Gen. J. H. MacQueen and industrial magnate Joseph Simard over possesion of the government arsenal at Longueil, Que. Simard, head of Sorel Indus- tries Limited of Sorel. Que. has his plant capacity tied up in the production of a large order of three inch rapid fire guns for the Canadian and American Navies. Simard also wants to make howitzer: for the Army. but hasn't got the facilities at Sorel.

A goodly number of white peo- ples have hobbies, and the hobby of some savages runs to collecting bite of the human anatomy rather than postage stamps, birds, or old books or other odds and ends.

I-lead-hunting used to be a pop- ular pastime among various races in many parts of the world. In- deed, the savages regarded head- lifting as a sort of game. each do- lng his best to get the other fel- low's and at the same time hang on to his own. some tribes pre- served the itophies intact, and cured them just as they were. while others retained only the skulls, and the Polynesian Moarla of New zealand went to the trou- ble of elaborately tattooing the heads taken by them in battle.

Natives who live near the head-

waters of the Amazon in Peru. shrink the captured heads till they are the size of 3 baseball and Just about as hard. Many heads offer- ed for sale to tourists are really artificial. The real Mccoy always has the lips sewed together. Why? To keep the spirit of the murder- ed 'pereon from doing evil to the hunter who collected it. It was the white man, however. who placed head-hunting on a paying basis, thus opening up 3. brand-new industry. The reason is quite simple. The white men wanted those heads to prove to theirrfrlends back home that they had actually penetrated the head hunting country. A head was a head; and as such brought a fan- cy price. and some white man who had displeased the tribe was add- ed tn the stock in trade!

Fortunately, the gruesome cus- tom has been all but wiped out by law prohibiting the evil prac- tlce.

An animal that certainly mer- its a place among earth's curious creatures is the Coy'pu, often ex- hiblted at fairs under the label "giant sewer-rat." The Coypu is unique in the animal kingdom in that the teat: of the female are located hi8h.up on the sides of the body so that the young may suck- le in safety while the mother goes for a swim.

In order that a full-grown gir- affe may drink. it is obliged to spread its iorelegs widely and bend the knees. Giraffes are large ani- mals. etandlng 16 feet high and weighing almost a ton when fully

grown.

The word "leisure" but once in the Bible. Mark 6: 3-1 - "And he (Jesus) said unto them.'l Come ye yourselves apart unto a desert place, and rest a while: for there were many coming and :0- ing, and they had no leisure so much as to eat."
