Like children eating between meals, we are "fed -up" but- not® really satisfied. Religion and all that it. should mean has not the major Place in life which it merits. 4 Some of the causes of the los of passion, which the Old Land as well as the new deplores, are probably: (1) A decline in prayer life. Elijah "prayed in our prayers". There isa difference between "saying" prayers and "praying in our. prayers. " The difference can be measured in the passion of souls, James the brother of our Lord was nicknamed "Camel knees,"--such a man of prayer was he. When they came to coffin him his knees were calloused by long hours spent in prayer. The posture of the body is not of prime importance but the importunate spirit of intercessory prayer is something to bé coveted and there is need to practise the presence of God. (2) Spiritual development has not kept pace with- intellectual develop- ment.-. Intellectual growth should not be detrimental to spiritual fervor. And intellectual suicide is not necessary in being a Christian. God gawe us ability to think and the noblest use to which the mind can be put is to think on matters religious. Keats said that "ihe rainbow never could be so beauti- ful again since science analyzed it." There seems then to be difficulty in keeping one's mind reverent and analytical at the same time. It is pathetic tha so many in religion get only what"dissection has to give and lose so heaviily on the side of spiritual appreciation, Paul had never heard of modern psychology but when he cried "Strengthened _ with _ power, through his spirit in the inner, man" he knew the power of prayer. To be able-to- "tell the time on a watch is fay better than to be able to pick it to pieces, but lack the unit to put it together again, The only religious knowledge that is really satisfying to life is that which is reproducible in life. Christ's life is beautiful to behold and wond- erful to preach about, but nether ad- miration or wonder is sufficient unless in"some measure we reproduce his life. (3) Our age is an age of action rather than meditation. It is a fine art to balance rightly in life meditation and 'action, and we needs must learn this art. This age grapples with great evils ignored by earlier genera- tions. None can gainsay that. The heroic endeavour to eliminate great evils and injustice stands to its credit. But all this activéd life does less than justice, sometimes to the devotional life which discovers the spiritual dynamic to carry action to success. (4) Again a certain professionalism has - erept into religious life on the part of both ministers and people, and we are in a measure paralyzed by the fear of emotion or anything that would break through the conventional crush in which we are all-more or less encased. We need experimental religion which is not afraid to break new ground -- ang experience with God which will $#&ver for lost passion and send us with zeal concerning the spiritual welfare of our -fellow- beings. "Let knowledge grow from more to more; But more of reverence in us dwell That mind and soul according well, May make one music as before." ra.

PORT PERRY, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 21st, 1088 MRS. WILLIAM BROCK To very few people has the privilege happy a life as that enjgyed by the morning of Thursday, September 14, 1933, in her 91st year. That state-|] ment does not mean that life did not have its share of trouble for Mrs, Brock. That came to her as it comes to. all, but her faith was serene, and to the very last of her long life she enjoyed a fine wholesome outlook. Mrs, Brock was born in Prince Al- bert on what:is now known as the Bongard property; Her father, Mr. Samuel-Barber, owned_ that 'piece of land, and the lots now owned by Mrs, He was County Con- stable in that locality, and life was a bit strenuous in his line in those days. and the transference of prisoners to Toronto was an arduous and some- times dangerous task. + There were three children in the Barber house- Lawrence' s Store News J (You.

Mrs, Brock's most constant companion was her cousin, who later became Mrs, Holden, of Whitby, and who 'died in 1927. When Mrs, Brock was born, the The wolves had not by any means given up possession, and their howling on lonely winter nigths was not a pleasant sound. But if there were wolves, there were also deer, and other wild game. One of the most remarkable of the game birds was the wild pigeon, which was so plentiful as to almost darken the sky at times. They were not so very wild either; for it is said that they were so thick that men could go out into the fields and kill them with a stick. Of course they became a pest and finally the farmers made war on them, and they disappeared entirely," This was partly due to the destruction of the birds and partly to a sense of fear that caused them to leave the locality. Fishing was a profitable oncupation | then when muskelunge were often caught that weighed between any and thirty pounds. 'There was endless work for he women in the homes of those early days, when everything had to be done --spinning, weaving, dyeing, tailoring, baking, canning, cooking, preserving, dairying, and a hundred other duties, such as making soap, piecing quilts, That round of ceaseless activity de- veloped fine characters in the women who had the capacity to endure the difficulties. Mrs. Brock was such a woman, There was a calmness and self-possession that stood her in good stead in the ordinary affairs of life, and when serious problems arose. Her judgment was good, and she was a wonderful helper of a practical char- acter in the work of the church. Her home was always open for anything that would forward the interests of the church, Ministers of the Gospel knew that hospitality awaited them at the Brock home. Sarah Barber was married in 1871 to William Brock. - He, too, was in- terested in church work, and the social life of the Brock home centred about the church. There were born to Mr. and Mrs. Brock six children--Harry (deceased), Ella, at home; Fred, of Port Perry; Harold, at home; Anna, (Mrs. Hughli), of Regina; (Mrs. S. E. Sangster) deceased. Mr, Brock died in 1915. 5 The funeral services were conducted by Rev. W. J. H. Smyth, Minister of the United Church in Port Perry, of which Mrs. Brock was an honored member. . Interment was made in Pine Grove Cemetery, Prince Albert. - In the passing of Mrs. Brock there are many friends who feel that a link with the past has been broken, But the memories of that well spent life will long be cherished with pleasure. It was a privilege to have known a character such as Mrs. Brock. ed : CHURCH OF THE ASCENSION [a p.m. Evening Service. All persons having claims agains the Estate of William H.
