What is-suprising, however, is the naus- ea of those fear that a red-blooded uproar ond investigation into the Printing Bureau affair may not, in some obscure manner, be damaging to Parliament. In heaven's name, how? Isn't it the function of Parliament to act as the watchdog of the manner in which pub- lic funds are spent? Isn’t it the particular function of the Ci Public A Committee to probe, and probe deeply, into every circumstance which might suggest that any of the taxpayers’ money was being spent ill-advisedly? : Far from damaging the dignity of Parlia- ment, the investigation by the Public Ac- counts Committee into the Printing Bureau matter should have a. most salutory effect. on all, including Ministers of the Crown, wha must assume responsibility for the spending of the public's money. $ Queasiness about possible damage to Parliament because of inquiry just doesn’t make sense, Preparing For Christmas Sometime in October or ‘November, or Mr. Gaglardi devoted most of his tallke to reviewing the work of his department, saying that the riding was not neglected as claimed by some parties. $5,805,- 907 has been spet on roads since 1952 arid an additional $2,800,000 is committed, The Minister told the aud- lence that services in the pro- vince under Social Credit have increased.

Or with decorations? Or gaiety?” : Of course gifts are appropriate to Christ- mas. And true hospitality bears the imprint of graciousness that is an inseparable part of Christmas. The desire for beauty in our homes’ is truly commendable. But somehow, in our clumsy human ways, we have pervert- ed our aims. We have sought for Christmas outside of its setting of sweet simplicity and Association towing-of cattle in a stable in Bethlehem. But in what direction have we come? Have we marched with the real spirit of Christmas or against it? The echo of simple adoration spoken by shepherds has faded into the distance. The anthems of praise have died away in the sky. unselfish devotion. All too often it is an an- nual occasion of frenzy and fatigue with lit- tle time for reflection, praise and full aware- ness of its splendid theme. © Let's try to come nearer to the realities of Christmas and discover how truly joyous it can be. ‘TIMELESS A WEEKLY MESSAGE FROM.

Then, stubbornly, the majority re- jected the worthy Candidate for a criminal. “Rather Barabbas the murderer”, they voted, “than Jesus Christ the Son of God.” “We will not have this man to reign over us” was their cry. To choose Him would have meant the acknowledgement of sin and their need ter, but not a Saviour from sin.” We may .Sing with our lips at Christmas of “a Saviour of salvation... ' Are you today, also rejecting the ONE whose promises are certain,’ in the election that effects your eternity? Will you, like many, reject the ONE who alone can cleanse, redeem, give Life Eternal,and satisfy the needs of the longing heart through Time and Eternity? The crowd cries “Give us the world, _ tiches, fame, pleasure, but not the Christ of |- God. Give us a teacher, and example, a mas- born” but fail to trust in our hearts, the Sa- viour. crucified for our sin. Dear friend, this vote is your MOST im- portant.
