Second. under what circumstances will He reveal Himself to men touay? These are searching questions and we can take up only one at s time. They are the more import- ant because God's self-revelation always carries with its God's self-communication. He comes to men to impart to them something of Hlmsel'. without which 4His designs in them cannot be ful- filled. , ' First of all. there is God's answer to the soul that seeks Him. We are not told anything of Abraham's search for the liv- ing God; all we know is that. at a certain point God responded to his quest. and sent him out to live a life of personal com- munion with Himself. '-We recognize him now as the spiritual father of three world religions, but all this originated in his own personal discovery of the living God whom he found ready to commit Himself to His friend. Often men arise who can- not live without God. They must find Him for themselves. Men like Luther, Wesley and Spurgeon led mighty spiritual movements which brought hu- manity to higher levels. but all this started with their personal thirst for God which God slaked by a personal communication of His love to them. The race question is the burn- ing issue of our time. Particularly in Asia and Africa whole nations are rising to a new self-conscious- ness, and are demanding the op- portunity for full self-develop- ment. Moses' spiritual experience re- veals the living God as the cham- pion of the oppressed and the Creator who demands for an en- slaved race its right to freedom and opportunity. Israel was a people endowed with a capacity of extraordinary spiritual ” inment and achieve- ment. as history has shown. Egypt was grinding them down under an iron heel. Through Moses. God intervened and set them free EVERY STEP At every step Moses was aware that it was God's power that he exercised. and that it was en- trusted to him for a definite pur- pose-to prepare this people for the fulfilment of God's design in them and for the outworking of His purpose through them. God has endowed every race with a genius of its own. and therefore with the capacity for a unique service to mankind. and woe be to the ruling race that stands in His way. He is in action in this field today as of yore. In this old saying mere wishful thinking: ”One with God is a majority." It seems so in some cases. For example. God called the prophet Jeremiah to stand Birthday Party For Little Twins ..'Mrs. Leroy White. Montague. entertained on Saturday evening, March 3. in honor of her charm- ing twin daughters. Joanne and Janice. on the happy occasion of their fifth birthday. There were 13 guests present. The supper table was centered with two beau- tifully decorated birthday cakes which were cut by Joanne and Janice. and served with ice cream. Assisting in serving were Heather Jamieson. Elaine Poole and Pauline Nicholson. The young ladies received many beautiful gifts and the accompanying greet- inks were read by Mrs. J. D. MacI.eod and the is arranged by Miss Bessie Poo e. Janice and Joanne graciously expressed their Ivpreclstlon. Beautiful gifts were received from their aunt. Mrs. John Jacobson. Boston, Mas . who also sent birthday greetings. Following the supper hour a program of singing was enjoyed Willi all the little guests present lasted about the fireplace. A solo "Open Up Your Heart" was sung by Deborah Sinclair and a solo "Bimbo" was sung by Mary Grace Davis. The children's hymn "Jesus Loves Me" was ""18 by the group. led by Sandra and Anne Shaw. Three beautiful films were then shown by Rev. R. G. Hill. and the accompanying script was Very effectively read by Mrs. C. A. Shaw. The films were "Alice In Wonderland".

HIT 1031 Plans 0 FURTHER HIS WORKS atone against the downward tendencies of the whole nation. God said to this youth: "Before I formed you womb I knew you, And nerore you were, born I consecrated you; 1 appoint you a prophet to the nations." in the Jeremiah an iron pillar and bronze walls against the whole land-kings. princes. priests and people. For years this man of God stood alone against the policy of the ruling class which he saw leading toythe nation's destruc- tion. At every stage he received communications of God's will. which the -ruler rejected but which events proved to be divine. He seemed to fail. The nation persisted in its mad policy and was destroyed. Jeremiah per- ished at the hands of the wretch- ed remnant that no would not abandon. PROPHE'I"S FAITH But. as we aok back over the outcome of it all. we see that this prophet's faith in Israel's destiny. and loyalty to them.in the ruin they brought on them- selves proved the inspiration which stirred the exiles to re- turn,and start anew the history which culminated in the coming of the Son of God. Any man who in the name of God takes his stand against the downwad tendencies. of his people and claims them for a noble destiny has God on his side. and although he may suffer. he cannot ultimately fail. The prophet Amos was called to prophesy by a deep convic- tion that the nation was follow- ing a policy that was morally wrong. He prophesied long be- fore Jeremiah's time in a period of victory and prosperity. He saw a rich nation piling sacrifices on God's altar but allowing injus- tice and inhumanity to flourish in the land. His call was: "Let Justice flow down like waters and righteousness like a mighty stream." Similarly Christ came to Paul on the way to Damascus and called him to preach the Gospel to the nations of the world. God never calls individuals merely for their personal salvation. As Shakespeare puts it: "Heaven does with us as men with torches do-not light them for themselves." It is true that He has a design in each person that He aims to perfect. but He calls the men to cultivate his own Powers in the service of others. The above are just examples that might be mutlipied indefi- nitely: God has revealed Him- self to men in order to link them with Himself in working out His plans for mankind and this means their good for time and etern- ity.

Maior Debate Looms On Army Thefts OT'I'AWA. (CP)- A major de- bate is shaping up in the Com- mons on large-scale thefts in army works! services depots in British Columbia. The Progressive Conservative and CCF parties have served no- tice they will ask the government for a complete explanation during study of the 1955-56 estimates of the defence department. Davie Fulton (PC-Kamloops) and Hazen Argue tCCF-Assini- bola) have placed a series of questions on the House order paper in an attempt to obtain am- munition for the debate, They want full details of the thefts. dis- closed earlier this month. at No. 11 works Company. Royal Cana- dian Engineers. at Vancouver and Chilllwack. B.C. It is expected the two opposi- tion groups will demand that the thefts be lnvestiagted by a royal commission or a special Com- mons committee. INVOLVED BEFORE The debate will be the second in which the works company has been involved. The company was one of the army units examined in 1952 by George Currie. M0111- real accountant and author of the controversial Currie report. Defence Minister Campney told the Commons last week that the thefts were uncovered by an im- proved auditing system recom- mended by Mr. Currie after he found a general breakdown in ad- ministration of the army work! service at Camp Petawaya. Ont. Mr. Argue wants to know if there is any relation between fires and thefts from the works service. He also seeks details of any other investigations being made into thefts from the armed services and whether the govern- ment has received complaints of thefts. Mr. Fulton has asked what ac- tion the government has taken on the 18 types of accounting irregu- larities found by the chief auditor of the department of national de- fence. as summarized in the Cur- rle report. He also wants a copy of the reports of the chief auditor drawing attention to the account- lng irregularities and any find- ings of dishonesty or malpractice lists! connection with the irregular- es. POLICE INVESTIGATE Mr. Currie's report found that there were "extensiva.irregularlt- ies" in the works services over a prolonged period only at Peta- wawa. As a result of thefts there. two officers and three non-com- misloned officers were charged with conspiracy and theft. Four were convicted. Eight of 10 civil- ians charged also were convicted. Meanwhile. the B. C. thefts still are being investigated by army provost and RCMP officers. Mr. Campney said in the Commons he hopes the investigations will be completed during the first week of April.

Library The shelves in the library at the new Queen Charlotte High School were designed to take care of 0.000 books. Although they now hold nearly one thou- sand volumes the library still looks very empty. Most of the books now on the shelves were put there by the Prince Edward Island Libraries. The Home and School Library Committee, says Mrs. H. B. Armstrong its chair- man. is most indebted to Mr. Bramwell Chandler for the time and hard work he has put into getting the books assembled. on the shelves and ready for dis- trlbution to High School readers before the Easter holidays. The School Board was also very for- tunate ln being .able to secure the services of Mrs. Ruth Mac- Kenzie as custodian. in which position she will look after all books placed on the shelves. She is to be at the library from 12:00 noon until 4:30 or 5:00 p.m. on school days. The thousand or so volumes be- longing to the Prince Edward Is- land Libraries only fill one sec- tion of shelving. The selection Mr. Chandler has provided covers a wide field but nevertheless. says Mrs. Armstrong. some of the li- brary's present needs are im- mediate. Youths of High School age should have various types of reference books available to them. Often teachers are able to in- crease the interest in a certain course by mentioning-articles End stories in current periodicals. The list of desirable olumes TOT such a library is without num- her. The Committee feels that many people in Charlottetown must have books they would M glad to donate to such a worthy cause.
