The Christion
Church
BY Rev. M. L. SHEPARD
For the NNPA News Service


Wainsgate, a Yorkshire village,
was mourning because the minister
was moving. He had received a
. call to a large church in London
as the successor to very noted
minister. The small salary paid by
the village church was altogether
too small for the needs of his
growing family. So, the move
seemed to be the only thing to do.
The men were loading the min
ister's furniture and books on the
vehicles that were to transport
them to their new charge. All
around these vehicles stood the
men and women and children of
the Wainsgate parish, weeping
over the loss of their beloved pas
tor.
Seated on one of the packing
cases, the pastor and his wife could
not restrain their own tears.
At last the wife said: John, I
can't bear this. know not how to
60"
And the pastor replied: Nor I,
ither. Nor will we go. Unload
Fffe furniture and put everything
in the place where it was before" :"
Out of this experience, John
awcett wrote from his heart the
hymn which has made him famous
wherever Christians meet and sing,
"Blest Be the Tie That Binds" 3"
This is a refreshing story out
of the history of Christian pastors,
and it ought to have a SOLDERING
effect on many pastors today.
There is always the temptation
for good preachers and successful
pastors to be lured by the call TO
bigger churches with promises of
larger salaries. Necessity some
times indicates that such a change
should be made.
But here and there we must sa-
lutte the minister who feels bound
by a cord of love and devotion
which is so strong that he feels he
cannot break such a tie and leave
bis people.
I am often shocked by the SEEM
ing reStlessness on the part of so
many of our pastors who are con-
stantly seeking bigger and better
churches. We should not permit
ourselves to be lured only by the
call of the god mammon.

Cut in British Rations

Owing to our financial posi-
ton our food supplies are in a
very dangerous position similar to
that of 1941," Mr.. Lloyd George
told the House of Commons.
Leaving out Of account the
stocks which have been accumu-
lated and set aside for strategical
purposes, I find that our stocks of
wheat and flour, margarine and
cooking fats. sugar and butter-to
take a few examples-are all well
below the level of 1941."
That was the year when German
submarines sharply cut supplies
Of food and materials reaching
Britain from overseas.
Mr.. Lloyd George said even II
additional supplies of meat, butter
and cheese were found abroad, the
nations present grave financial
position would prevent Britain
from buying them.
