COMMUNITY CHRISTIAN

The theme of the eveEnng worship was the great doctrine of the atone ment. After reading a short paper briefly outlining various views of this central Christian doctrine, MT. Munro discussed what would seem to be the most helpful view for the modern thinker. The suffering and death of Jesus were not ransom paid to Sa- tan for mems souls, nor a penalty paid to an outraged God. They were the natural result of a sinless life in a sinful world. The atonement or at one-ment, is a reconciliation, an at tempt on the part of the Goldman to break down the unwillingness of a prodigal world to "arise and go to our Father" Jesus suffering is best illustrated by that of loving wife seeking to reclaim for manhood dis solute husband or a mother breaking her heart over a wayward son. So, every good person who takes upon his heart the burden of another's failure and weakness, seeking to reclaim and rebuild character, fellowships with Christ in sacrifcial suffering. How ever, the cross is unique among sacri-

Six times is S6, plus 6 equals AZ months.
 Also note that when the Kaiser started the war he was D years and 6 months old-666 months-which again fixes the Kaiser'S number Hav- ing established this fact, you will be interested in reading from the 18th chapter of Revelation, the 4th, 9th and 18th verses:
 4th. And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast and they worshipped the beast saying, who is like unto the beast Who is able to make war with him ?'
 5th. And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies, and power was giv- en unto him to continue forty and two months"
 18th. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast, for it is the number of man and his number is six hundred and three score and six

CATCH THE COD

With the salmon run negligible as compared to other years and halibut sticking up around the fOurteen-cent mark at Seattle, the importance of in- creasing the catch of sea food during the coming year, by extending the cod fishing industry, Is apparent.
 While most people prefer a nice chicken halibut to cod, it is well to re member that the people in many of the countries now at war prefer white bread to brown as a steady diet, but they are eating the brown, just the same.
 Through waStage of fish as a result of the lack of cold storage in western cannerieS, it is probable that the sal mon are being depleted and that un- less something is done to protect the future supply, packs will be less and less.
 The halibut banks of Southeastern Alaska are being fShed out as were those of Puget Sound and further south. Whether the new rule of a closed season in midwinter will help remains to be seen, but the cod Is still in the aScendancy in Alaskan waters

SUNDAYS
 SERMONS
METHODIST

At the Methodist church Sunday evening Rev. Patton chose as his theme, "The Religion of the Child" " from Luke 10:14-16. The pastor said that it was evident that Jesus had proven himself very attractive to children, otherwise the parents would not be thus bold to present those lit tie ones in the face of criticism for Christ's blessings. The text tells us that Jesus had good ground in de- lending himself against objections. The revised version says, Suffer the little children to come unto me; for bid them not: for to such belongeth the kingdom of God" Turn to Mat thew 1S:1-6 and we find where the disciples were anxious to know who should be greatest in the kingdom of heaven. Here our Saviour used lit tie child to illustrate, saying, Except ye turn, and become as little children, ye shall in no wise enter into the king dom of heaven" The fact is that it was impossible for even Christ to have found better examples of faith and humility than in child. They trust a loving parent just as God would have us trust him. They are inno- cent just as God would have a newly forgiven soul free from sin.

A LETTER TO THE GATEWAY

"Can you explain this? We clap our hands when our flag waves be- fore us at the movies; we shed tear when our orators proclaim with beautiful phrases our duty to the country'S flag. We grow hysterical if a negro in South America steps on the flag. We know that our flag is the only emblem of thls great coun- try that we love so much; and we be- lieve it should be held in greater re- Spect and veneration by us than any other symbol on earth. Yes, and there isn't a man in town who would resent strenuously the charge that he was disrespectful to it. But how's this? When l walk up Broadway and lift my eyes to beautiful Marathon Mountain, appreciating it, the picture is completely spoiled, for between me and it, fluttering from a flag pole, is a rag, torn and faded.
 By close scrutiny you can see that it was once colored in places; and yet that's our flag; the emblem of our glorious nation; the symbol of our boasted patriotism.
 "NIr. Editor, l, for one, think it is a shame and disgrace to hoist our beautiful flag to a conspicuous posi- ton and there leave it to rot and fade and tear until it is an eyeSore. If the people who fly or display the flag cannot afford to hoist new one so soon as the old one shows weather worn, (and cannot show sufficient pa triotism to take it down each evening and put it up again each morning, un- der the National rule for flying the fag), then it would be far better to display the flag only a few times a year. I protest against this disre- spect. Sincerely, Don Carlos Brownell.' V

THE NUMBER OF THE BEAST

 Did you know the Kaiser's number is 6?
 The Kaiser is the man who started the war; Serbia is the country where the war started. There are six letters in each of these words, and if writ ten together and divided in halves also spell Kaiser and Serbia.
