This spring the world is bursting with new life everywhere. When you watch the tree burst out with its canopy of green, or the dead-looking bulb be- come a beautiful flower, or you see day by day the growing life of a baby, you see in action the miracle of life. Life is a great gift of God. No man, not even the Russians, have been able to.manu- facture life. It is a wonderful gift to be re- vered and conserved whether it be the life of a tree, wild life or the most wonderful of all life, that of a human being. 'e take a lot of trouble conserving the life of the forest'or streams. The doctors exert themselves to save human life. All life comes from God, In the book of Genesis we are told that before there was any life in the universe “The Spirit of God moved on the face of the water,” We are told that it was the Holy Spirit of God which guided the great teachers of religion and even the artists who decorated the beau- creation. develop that die if we are tiful Temple of the Jews. “3 The bible tells us that our bodies are the ‘temple of the Holy Spirit.” It tells us that life from God'comes to every human being in a higher way than it does to other Parts of His If we are to live life to the fullest we must cultivate that life of God. The Holy Spir- it is God and yet He deigns to come and dwell in our hearts. How we gift. _. the life of the body dies with it but the life of the Spirit is eternal. Just as the branch of the tree dies if it is cut off from the steam of life of the tree, so does our spiritual life soursesnt peittual life, . ‘e have been given the Holy Spiri “The author and giver of life.” Let thane the gift by cultivating the presente of God every day. We can do this through prayer, the sac- raments, and by thinking about God and. the wonders of His love. should conserve and t separated from God who is the LOOKING THANK YOU By E.G.O. I see by the papers that the «Chant Commission, which has “just about finished. {its long ser- ies of hearings and briefs on the educational picture in B.C., has just been handed a minor atom tomb of a suggestion by the North Vancouver Teachers’ As- Association. Namely that boys and girls be separated in high school, particularly in junior high school. In defense of their stand they suggest that not only do the interests of boys and girls differ, but that the girls are two years older than the boys intellectually, physically and -emotionally, . By segregation of the sexes these teachers hope to capitalize on these differences and improve the quality and quantity of edu- cation for both. Theoretically I should be shouting loud bravo’s and send- ing congratulatory messages but my enthusiasm is tempered somewhat by the thought that the suggestion is treading on the fringes of that vague shadow- jand which is at the edge of the SPCA. Granted that the girls are “Say wouldn’t that be dream- y. Oh brother! Is New Years after Christmas because I have- n't got a thing to wear (hus- bands please note that femin- ine precacity is well developed here too). but if it is after Christmas well then I woutd have. samething to wear. If you get that nice red dress for ci would you wear tt and even intellectually more pre- soclous than the males of the come age group, they are first amd above all else young human females and their three most im- nortant Interests are therefore themselves, boys, clothes . and hoys in that order. To prove my point Iet me quote from two or three of the notes which these girls, when deprived of the opportunity of talking, scatter about them like the leaves of autumn: “How come you and S. aro mad at me?” “How did you get that idea? We're not mad at you, just at sur mothers.” “S is sure mad at me, she zave me dirty looks all evening and she never spoke to me ex- ept to rib me about my big feet and toll me net to waste Bill's paints when I was just doing my picture.” And so ft goes on in the ‘ame veiling However, a second full-page effort on typing pager gives another view of the preco- sous female: - if you gb? 1 don't know what I want for Christmas, I just can’t decide.” “M got a dress out of the catalogue (I. don’t like it) but she said she is going to wear it this is what it looks like.” (Sketch follows.) A third example completes the picture: “Hey, H. so you went out with D, eh? Has he sent you your black Alaska diamond yet? I think D. and J. are cute.” “Yea, I was out with D. last night I really like him too. No he hasn't sent my ring. I wrote his a letter last night and told him not to send me one.” “Isn't this hairy?” “Yea, isn’t it ever. I'm so glad. I lope it turns out the other way too.” “Well, good luck.” “Thanks, Pil need It.” “I don't think you will.” “You don’t think I what?” “I don’t think you'll need luck if he was making eyes at you lilce you said.” And so on whl 2 TE Ts ECIAL $ ONLY 59c FROM MAY {5th to MAY 3ist LEITNER’S (i) (PLAIN ONLY) SKIRTS DRY CLEANED OUR DISTRICT AGENTS Castl LEWIS’ COFFEE BAR UPPER.BENCH STORE TRISCHUCK’S GROCERY DUMONT STORE Kinnaird Kinnaird Kinnaird CRYSTAL LAUNDRY & py CLEANERS PHONE CASTLEGAR 4851 FOR PICK-UP AND DELIVERY Si Kinnaird Ltd.
