He must be saved - elven at the expense of extreme divine suffering! That is the treasure of God's Love, it is the token that should reassure us In time of despair — we are Christ's brothers, His Father loves us and will never allow us to go unaided. He will always be ready to help us when- ever we are in need. For, let us remember, Christ did not. become one oif us to know the weaknesses of our flesh, the better to judge us. His incarnation was inspired by a divine desire to save us-it was an unselfish love aimed at our good. That la the love of friendship and charity. A real farther loves his children and bends his every effort to their welfare and happi- ness. We all know that from ex- perience and it is precisely our desire to share In that love, to reciprocate it as best we can, that drives us back to our families at Christmas. So, too, should a spiritual desire burn' within everyone‘: heart. burn with a holy passion, to go with Christ to Our Father, to live with Him and to be dissolved in Him. We are guilty of the most wretched in- gratitude if we refuse Him that love-for the greatest thorn that can pierce any father's heart is the refusal of his children to re- spond to his affection.

GEORGE S. McKENNA On Dec. 8th. tihere passed to her eternal reward, Ida, beloved wife of George S. McKenna, Kin- kora, at the early age of 45 years. The deceased had been in fail- ing health for the past year and despite all that medical science and tender nursing could do. the grim reaper could not be stayed. God willed otherwise and on the morning of Our Lady's feast, the Immaculate Conception, sur- rounded by her loved ones. her gentle spirit winged its way to her Creator. Mrs. McKenna was Ifhe daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. James McKenna, Mermaid, and came ll a bride to Kinkora twenty five years ago. Here by her kind and cheerful disposition she won the love and esteem of all with whom she came in contact. But it was in the home. her many splendid quali- ties of mind and heart were manl- fest. Here by love and examiple were taught the Christian virtues. it can be truly said of her, "she looked well to the ways of her household" and her husband and children may well call hei- blessed Despite her many home ties, she was always ready and willing to lend a helping hand in time of sickness or adversity. and to as- sist in any good work for the betterment of the community. Her death is a distinct loss to the parish, but It is in the home, where she played such a large and important part that her los will be more keenly felt. She was consoled and strengthened by the frequent visits of her good pastor, Rev. Francis McQueid, who ad- ministered to her (the last rites of Holy Mother Church. which she had loved so faithfully and well. She leaves to mourn a discon- aolafe husband. one daughter.

WILSOfi SNOW WHITE Nature is so anxious to protect her children that they are fre- quently provided with a camou- flage. Birds living in snowy aur- roundings are mainly white. or very light coloured. Occasionally Iihe few dark splashes on head, wings, or tail actually assist de- ception, for they aippear to be mere shadows on the snow. Even in winter the Rock Phar- migan seldom leave; its home In the far north of the continent or Greenland. Therefore, at; that time of year, it is pure white ex- cept for a black tail and a black bar through the eye. In summer when patches of earth appear, to be In keeping the white plumage becomes mottled with dark and ochre bars. The Greenland Whcatear, breed- ing on the eastern Arctic Is- lands as well as in Greenland, so seldom comes from the winatry landscape that its dress always re- mains the same: very pale grey above, white below, and black trimmings. For much the same reason. the Nortihern Shrike wears a similar costume though greyer beneath, where it hes a year- round home in high nortihem for- eats. Given the same colours, with the black rather greyed. the Can- ada Jay rarely leaves the coni- ferous woods. A native of the eastern Arctic, the White Gyrfalcon is sometimes almost immaculate, though it may be given dark flecks. This bird is found in settled Canada only when Nature has clad the country in white. The vague and diffused brown and white pattern of the Little Boreal Owl makes it prac- tically invlsible when it visits civilization in winter. At other seasons, n northern coniferous forests, this plumage still causes the bird to be inconspicuous. Only a food shortage brings the ‘ Snowy Owl down to settlements in winter from its Arctic home. Therefore this species is generally pure white, though occasionally barred with dark.
