| Old Timer Sees the Light Agrees With a Cannibal From Solomon Islands|

Smithers, Jan. 9. 9, 1937

Tear Editer:;—We are “doubtless wrong in many things.. “At least we xeon to disagree with most . peoples Tlowever, we are glad to note that there is nt teast one, altho a cnanibal heathen, who, agrees with us.

We have long pondered the history ot the Israelites. How they sinned, were punished, repented, prospered

gain, over and over. Today they‘ ure venttered over the face of the earth. nnd are again having it. very tongh. Bevause they did not obey, and because they rejected the. Messiah.

The British Israelits view of things hrings them into the picture, and there is much to be learned by so doing. All nations seem to vise, flourish and fall. Like people—they cnnnot stand pros- verity, or when prosperous they forget the giver of their blessings.

During the dark days of 1917 there

were days set aside for prayer through out the Empire. A favorite song was “Oh God our help in Ages past.’ Since the Armistice things have altered and we have one from one excess fo an. other ft has been a giddy procession --ull for the svorse. Some malntain the world is becoming better.

Today we note a revival of patro. tism = Progtams are ‘hegun with “O Cunada”? and concluded with the King.” We wonder. if that will save the country ‘from another enhist raphe? We thing it would. Just as.awell,.ta. _ Staxt..an.. 50. -God..ant help in ages, ‘past? ‘before it is too Tate. Then - et: busy: ‘nnd “ilo: sbinething’ tor the jiotection of : our country.

I have heen disappointed in not

They were eager’ to show me the wonders of man’s makings and devisings, but I didn't hear one of them: say God had|> given him the thoughts to unravel things of inventive genius. ’ Rugaso said when he gets back home he will tell his people that while the missionaries taught the Solomon Island. women to lay aside rings, bra- telets and other ornaments, the Ameri- ean women fre encouraged to put on vines on their fingers, pearls around]. their necks and paint their fingers and finger nails.”

C. N. R. HELPED BUSINESS

Purchases maile by the Canadian National Railways during 1937, valu- ed nt over $60,000,000 from approxi- mately ten thonsnnd Canadian firms assisted very materially in bringing various branches of Canadian industry back to normal conditions. The com- pany spent more for material and sup- plies in 198T than in 1936. That was necessitated by the increased business handled, which required the running of-more passenger and freght trains to meet the needs of increased traffic. Vonseipaentiyssaore:: -fuelssvags~. and-a larger. quantity of train’ and oth- er supplies were used.

The ships were also opened to great- er capacity to meet -the equipment re- quirements of the rallway and more material was used for that purpose. The total’ purehases of materia] in Cunada amounted to. $62,506,000. Of that amount approximately $16,140,000 went for new equipment, and $11,216,- 0@0 for Canadian fuel used on onr Io- comotives and n our boiler houses, stations and coaches.
