THE FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT

n

Christianity did not take over the Greek ides thot matter as such was evil and that spirit as such was good. It' did. however. -make use of the contrast between flesh and spirit. and although in the New Testament these words are not al- ways used in exactly the same way. it is made clear that there exists I tension between them. '

Jesus says, in reference to his uilteriiig disciples: "The spirit in- deed is willing, but the flesh is dealt." st. Paul is still more insis- tent on the conflict between tiie two. "The flesh lusteth against the Spirit and the Spirit against the flesh." St. Paul's list (in Gala- tians) of "the works of the flesh" ceglns iiaturaily enough with sex- ual aberrations, but it i'aptdly moves on from tiiese to things like haired. variance, strife, and envy- tiigs.

Over against "the works of flesh" stands the "fruit of the Spirit." significantly described in the singular to point overlooked ill the English Litany which speaks of "the fruits of the Spir- it"). All its attractive manifests- ttoiis are thought of as springing from one root-the Spirit, which means in St. Paul man's spirit re- 'n!orced and made rcgnant by the indwelling Spirit of Christ.

The order in which St. Paul gives the list of the various "fruit- tngs"- fl plural of some sort is tztiavoldahlc--makes an lntc-rt'sllns.:

works of the flesh. In the "bad" list the Apostle begins with the more flagrant carnal sins and goes on to show how the same look of control and thought is responsible for the breakdown of harmonious relationships. These sins, in St. Paul's mind, sprlifg from undue self-regard and insufficient regard for others.

In the "good" list. St. Paul is concerned entirely with disposi- tions of the heart and mind. "The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy peace, long-suffering. gentleness. goodness, fidelity. meekness. tem- perance. Only in the case of the last-named virtue-the Greek ori- ritual of which means holding-in or self-mastery-is there a refer- ence to the overcoming of tempta- tion. Christian character is set in its positive attractiveness, not in terms of a negltlve blamelessness.

When Christianity speaks. there- fore, of the conflict between flesh and spirit (as it does, for in- stance. in the Baptimial service. in the prayer that "all things be- longing to the flesh" may die in the baptized infant, and that "all things belonging to the Spirit" may live and grow in him) it is thinking not of the body as in- herentlv evil but of two opposing directlohs in which the character may develop. It is in having chosen the one and rejected the other that Christians may be said to have "crucified the flesh, with the affections and lusts."

Major crimes in the U.S.A. have upped 18 per cent - to nearly two million offenses in a single year!

counterfeiting is 2.000 per cent. embezzlement 9 per cent. Forgery iu the -Philadelphia area is 30 per cent higher. Most of this pllfering was traced to women in the upper income classes. And theft from steamship companies in New York City alone stood at s200.000.000 for

' the year 1952. In order to cope with

this new crime wave the US. Secret Service Department is 41 per cent larger.

Each American's income over- ages 81.453 whereas the per capita in our own country is only 3870. Nowadays we do not give Jesus any- thing like the devotion we give sports stars and big wigs.

Besides settings for rings dia- monds have many uses. Tools for drilling rock have diamonds set in their crowns. Circular saws used for stone cutting have diamonds set in their teeth. Diamond dies are used for drawing of very small diameter. They also are usevl for machine tools.

Deaf and dumb persons not only use the sign language but they also use their eyes. hands. and other parts of the body to put across their ideas.

All good moslems remove their shoes before entering a nouse. They never stroke or pet a dog. or permit it to enter their homes, and they consider it an act of indec- ency to smoke or spit anywhere near a mosque.

In i334 the first American miss- ionary landed at Capetown. and the first white woman to be buried in the Transvaal was an American.

In the Whole of Canada there are only fourteen million inhabit- ants in an area much larger than the U.S.A. We have one of the very few territories on the globe with space and substance for greater numbers of settlers. Millions of people could be taken care of here. and the more Canada can absorb. of the right type. the greater would be its prosperity.

Those that think much of Can- ada is too remote and too cold for settlement should cost an eye on Siberia, Russit-i's Far East. which has been phenomenally industria- lized and peopled in recent years in spite of the fact that difficulties of travel are immense. Those miles. like Canada's northland. measure some of the emptiest land on earth. But. ii younger generation with the right kind of pioneering blood in their veins can conquer the empt- iest spaces. Youth has accomplish- ed such a feat in Siberia as wit- nessed in the industrialized city of Komsomolsk which has grown from scratch into a modern metro- polis of over 300.000 inhabitants today. It was built by the Younfz Communist League and is famed for the fact that 65 per cent of its population are under thirty years of age. l

Certain sections or districts of Egypt are swept by "The Wind of Madness” which cause considerable loss of property and human lives each year.

The Arctic White Light. or long period of sunlight gives some folks who live in that region a state of mind bordering melancholia. The native Eskimos are affected lll much the some way as are the white people. On the other hand. the long. sunless winters. sap their vitality to such an extent as to cause a. physical condition which we in our ignorance of Arctic clim- ate. might be inclined to call laz- mess.

The Bushman of Africa carry a three-foot hollow tube or reed with them whenever they travel across desert country. Why? To get water beneath the sands. They drive the reeds into the sand and. when these are pulled up, some hours is- ter. their interior is filled with tiny drops of water.

These pint-sized, half-wild people still hunt with poisoned arrows. and sleep in the grass. like rabbits. Only a few among the Bushmen themselves know the secret of these poisons. No white man does. not yet. Why? Well like some snake poisons they defy analysis.

Ontario has some odd place names. Pickle Crow. for instance. But Punkcydoodles Corners. three mile south west of New Hamburg. sounds so much like Birds Eye Center or Bnookems Town of fic- tion that one hardly can believe such it place actually exists. Puti- keydoodles Corners was named by John Surbrigg. who pioneered the place. and grew pumpkins there. A neighbor who frowned upon Sur- hrlggls success cried out to him one day in Pennsylvanian Dutch: "You old Punkeydoodlc! Any good map of Ontario will show this amus- ing place name in Waterloo Cun-

Snow Ifrmoval

Frequent storms and drifting have complicated snow removalto the point this winter where many farmers are bgiiiiiiiig to see the necessity of some method of as- sisting on a local basis.

Farm tractors mil be equipped with blowers that will render quite I useful service in clearing drive- ways and might even assist to some extent on the highways. Manure loaders can also be quite useful in clearing away drills and be of some assistance in deep cuttings. Within a few years we exprct. to see snow removal machinery be- come community equipment.

Witch Hunting

Years ago. particularly in New England. witches were a serious problem and witch iiuntin: the responsibility of public spirited citizens. Usually the uitch was a person whose ideas or opinions did not agree with established think- lng or who D('l'll(IDS rcfuscd to conform to O5lflbliSllCfl precedents either good or bad.

We have in this lIl'0l'lll('(.' at the present time a inodification of th: witch problem: here the culprit is usually one who looks at market- ing problems in an analytical or crlticai way and is l)0lll enough to suggest that iniprovenients are possible.

However. the cry is not "witch" but "socialist” and one trading or- ganization or at least it's officials are ready to cry socialist at every turn and organize the modern version of the old fasltioned witch- hunt.

Silage Survey

The silage survey presented at the I):-iii-y meeting by the Researcii Division of the l-lederation is a document containing much infor- mation of value and is worthy of careful study by farmers interest- ed iii economical production and more efficient feeding practices. The report is too lcngthy to summarize in this column but the followlng points are worthy 01 notice:

I. 'llhere is not siuiiificant dif- ference in quality in silage stored in french or upright silos.

2. The upright silo involves a substantial investment in building and equipment.

3. Trench silos are inconvenient. for feeding and the silos cave in after the first year.

4. only two of the twenty one silos tested showed general spoil- age. In one case due to luck of tramping. and in the other too dry it material when stored.

5. Grass or clover silage was significantly higher in protein than corn.

6. The silo with concrete walls built for the most part on top of the ground close to the barn and with a removable shed roof is worthy of consideration.
