At last night's meeting, Mrs, York spoke from Deut. 32. 9-14, Using this text, she said, "The believer is the riches of the glory of Christ's in- heritance. Found in a waste, howl- ing wilderness He now keeps him as the apple of His eye, stirring up his nest, and purging and pur- ifying, giving him victory over spiritual foes, satisfying his hun- .8ry sogl with food and sweetness, empowering him when the odds are all against him, and giving him to drink of the pure blood of the fullness of the Holy Ghost, which to the believer hig adorable, glorified, interceding Lord Jesus." Mrs. York is to preach at both services in Calvary Baptist Churéh on Sunday, and will also conduct special meetings every .evening next week except Saturday. What Others Say DENTON MASSKY'S MESSAGE The Editor, Daily Times: Dear Sir: -- Concluding that the man who conducts a Bible Class numbering more than 1,000 should be worth hearing, I went to Simcoe St. Church last Monday evening. Mr. Massey had the stimulug of a large audience, wearied a little perhaps by unduly protracted preliminaries. It may not be unfair or unkind to say that he proved little but as- sumed much. In no captious spirit, I desire to comment very briefly on some of these assumptions. 1--Mr. Massey implied that if it were not for the dogmas of men, it would not be difficult to follow Jesus. If he can make it easy for 'men to follow Jesus, his class should soon greatly exceed 1,000. The life that Jesus lived was not easy for Him or for any sincere follower. Is there a single sentence in the recorded teaching of our Master that promises an easy life? The Christian. life iz noble, uplifting, purifying, joyous and victorious but never free from difficulty, never easy. Ask the most Chtistlike men or women the world has known. 2--The speaker assumed that the great saying of Jesus, 'I am come that they might have life and that 'they might have it more ab- undantly," justified or commend- ed the frank free life lived by the average youth today. One resents keenly the frequency with which this marvellous statement of our Blessed Lord has been perverted to condone many forms of frivolity. Jesus came to impart the life of utter devotion to God and man of which He was the supreme example. ff |' That life breathed in the petitions He taught His followers, "Thy ngdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it 1s in heaven." It is 1c if | vealed in the beatitudes, the golden rule and in such an admonition as "Be ye therefore perfect even as | your Father which is in heaven is perfect."

ALL ARE CORDIALLY A WELCOME J of amusement, or when their con- tributions for the Kingdom of God approach the volume of expendi- ture for. cosmetics, cigarettes, etc., their reception of the life Jesus came to bestow will be more obvi- ous, 3---It was alleged that many modern customs are condemned only because they are unfamiliar. An exceedingly dangerous princi- ple lurks here. It is exemplified in the case of a young person who at home was temperate and churcam going. Away from home these good habits are neglected. For a time conscience causes discomfort, but familfarity with wrong-doing gmothers conscience. In this way are many, possibly all, criminals made. Mr. Massey referred quite fully and apparently with much self-satisfaction to certain modes of dress. If his reasoning is sound the 'repulsive extremes that shock even Parisians, may in time be accept- able in Oshawa. If the young people of today are not superior to those of yesterday, they should be. Never before have Church and State worked so earns estly or expended money so gen- erously to promote their welfare. Tt.is gratifying to know that there are among us many young people of whom any community might pe proud.' May their number and in- fluence be greatly increased. OBSERVER.

"Abusing Bible Sunday in Oshawa Sunday, May 5th. will be observ- ed as Bible Sunday in Oshawa when there will be mentioned in each church the immense service which this great organization ren- ders to the missionary activities of all Christian communions. 'This story is familiar to all yet throbs with interest, The British and Foreign Bible Society makes no pretense of exer- cising a many-aided ministry. It does not establish hospitals or con- duct schools; it does not gather converts into Christian communi- ties, Other Christian organizations are carrying on these very neces- sary activities all over the world. The Bible Society is content to do ohe thing, but is ambitious to do that one thing well. And so, atfer 125 years of service it says in of- fect, to the people of every lana, "Here rendered into your own mother tongue, is the greatest story in the world, read it for your- selves, and may the Spirit of God illumine your minds." Since its organization in 1804, jt has enabled the Scriptures to speak in over 600 languages and dialects, and it is very interesting to nute that during the 12 months covered by their last annual report, 15 new languages have been captured for the Kingdom of God. Story of Interest And there is a story of absorb- ing interest. behind each transla- tion. It means that some pioneer missionary has gone to a tribe hith- erto untouched by the Gospel and not possessing any books, litera- ture or written language of their own, and has lahoriously learned the languages from their lips. Word by word and syllable by syl- lable, until after months and years of painstaking applicaion and re- vision, he has finally built up a dic- tionary' of several thousand native words, with their English equiva- lents. 'Then a few native boys are gath- ered and taught to read and write in their own language. The next step is to translate one of the Gos- pels into the new language and this means months more of experiment and revision, wherein the native learners become teachers in the pa- tient search for a word or phrase which will convey the exact mean- ing. At length the precious little parcel of manuscript is committed to the care of His Majesty's mail and directed to the Bible Society headquarters in Old London. The Society gladly assumes all financial obligations for modeling and casting of mew type, printing, binding and finally shipping the consignment of neat and sturdy lit- tle volumes, and who can picture the joy of missionary and natives when they are finally unpacked and distributed? And so the torch of knowledge hag been lighted for a new race, and the Gospel message begins its transforming, uplifting ministry among a primitive super- stitious tribe, 125th Anniversary 1929 is an anniversary year, the 125th. of the founding of the Brit- ish and Foreign Bible So¢iety and the 25th. of the amalgamation or the Canadian Auxiliaries into the Canadian Bible Society. Canada hopes to mark the anniversary with a Thankoffering of $100,000 to en- able the Parent Society to overtake work which has been waiting to be done. No object {8 more worthy of Christian people's help and no ob- ject has a greater claim upon us in view of the unique service ren- dered to all nations. THE RIGHT VIEW OF WORK (From "The Christian Science Monitor") Most persong desire to do their work in a way that will bring satis- faction to themselves and to oth- ers, Hcw shall one view his work? and from what basis shall one pro- ceed with it? are questions that one must, sooner or later, answer right. Mankind is not ag mindful as it should be that there is a perfect model which may be understood and conformed to, a model which, when intelligently followed, must result in good work and in satis- faction concerning it. In Genesis it is recorded that God saw all that He had made as "very good'. He was satisfied with His good work; and He created man, His perfect The Right View of Work idea, to reflect Him. This change- lesg spiritual fact gives the perfect basis from which each one may view his own work, and correct, control, and develop it to ends of harmony and grateful satisfaction. Paul recognized the relation of the spiritual fact to harmonious in- dividual work, and saw that all ac- tivity must pass the test of con- formity to God's law or eventually disappear; he counselled, "Whatso- ever ye do, do all to the glory of God". This changed concept may or may not result in changing one's vocation or avocation; but it will surely bring to one's present work, or to newly unfolding work, the en- couraging certainty of going for- ward in intelligent obedience to God's law, and therefore into a greater sense of harmony. STATES GOD FIRST GREAT ADVERTISER Rev. W. J. Johnston Re views Place of Church in World Affairs Montreal, May 4--God was the first great advertiser. He changes His shop window with the different seasons of the year, declared Rev. W. J. Johnston, of the St. Lambert United Church, in an address on "The Church and the Art of Advertising," at the Advertising Club luncheon in the Mount Royal Hotel here. The Cross is a supreme advertisement of His love for man. In speaking about the Church, in- cluding all religions, Mr.. Johnston stated that too many people were willing to talk about what was wrong with the Church, failing to give con- structive criticism or to mention what is right. There never was a time when the|' Church was as sympathetically active as it is today, the speaker said, It sets forth a fourfold program of pro- gress. Never were the preachers as "intelligent as they are today, nor was there ever a time when the social and economic structure of the world was as profoundly affected by the teach- ings of the Church. Not only is the Church becoming more internationally minded, but the time is not far distant, Mr. Johnson said, when there will be a great spirit of union between the various religious bodies, which are working actively in this direction. In citing what the Church has ac- complished as a whole, the speaker declared that more than any other agency it had helped to bring about the age of the child, the age of the woman, and that of humanity in gen- eral. It is an age of service, when men more highly regard those en- trusted to their care and protection, and one another. In concluding, Mr. Johnston de- clared that the Church is not going to fail, but has a future greater than ever before it. C. W. Stokes, president of the club, was in the chair, SCOTS TO HONOR LIVINGSTONE Scotch residents of :South Africa will erect a memorial to David Liv- ingstone near the scene of his life's work.

The project has been actively taken up by the Caledonian Societies of the Union of South Africa and Rhode- sia, who have already contributed gored. Admirers of Livingstone in cotland are also becoming enthusi- astic over the project.and are expect- ed to contribute to the fund. more than $10,000 of the $75,000 re- |. KING ST. CHURCH TO BURN MORTGAGE Important Event To Be Cele- brated During Week of May 19 An event of unusual importance to members of King St. United Church, both present and past, will be celebrated during the week of May 19th, in the burning of the Mortgage the last payment of Thir- ty-five hundred dollars will be paid before that date. This fine church was erected dur- ing the ministerial term of Rev. S. C. Moore and the success of the undertaking was due largely to his untiring efforts. He will preach here again morning and evening on Sunday, May 19, in connection with this occasion. A Story For the -- Children -- There is a legend of a certain king whose subjects missed so many good things because they: would not seek them to remove the difficulties that hindered their easy possession, that he resolved to teach them a lesson. The next morning when his sub- jects awoke they saw in the middle of the King's Highway a large stone, but being in the habit of avoiding patient endeavor of any kind, they passed around the ovs- tacle all day. The next day the King, who had been watching them from the cas- tle tower, ordered out hig body- guard for a grand parade. . When the cavalcade reached the stone in the road the general in command gave order to divide and pass around it, but the King, who was riding begide .him, sprang from his horse and, lifting the great stone, bore. it to the roadside. He then returned and took from a hole in the earth, just beneath where the stone had laid, a golden casket, and, raising the lid, display- ed to the astonished eyes of soldier 'and peasant gold and jewels beyonu price. Then he read from the lid of the casket these words: "This box is for him, And for him alone, Who takes the trouble To move this stone." In some ways that is just like God. He has hid treasure for saint and sinner if they will but remove the doubt and indifference that stands between them and it. The eternal promise stands: "Ask und ye shall receive; seek and ye shall find; knock and it shall be opened unto you."
