Local industries grow from community effort not gifts
In Manitoba rural areas the push for decentralizing industry rests on local enterprise. Leaders urge residents to invest, work, and imagine local opportunities rather than rely on government handouts. Altona, Steinbach, Winkler and Morden showcase success with a vegetable oil refinery elevator locker plant beekeepers supplies and creamery signaling the potential for other towns.

Rest in God Amid Western Fever of Busyness
A religious sermon laments modern Western life for feverish overwork and urges retreat from activity to find rest in God. It cites Jesus retreating to a desert place, contrasts Western haste with Eastern contemplation, and uses anecdotes from Yellowstone and a book by John Rathbone Oliver to illustrate fear, self knowledge, and faith. The piece calls for a philosophy of life rooted in belief and a quiet, contemplative Christian practice.
