PACE TEN THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 1930 PACKING AND PAIN CLOSELY ALLIED London Times Writer Des- cribes Trials of Getting Luggage Ready London, Sept. 25.--Under the eaption 'Packing and Pain" The London Times recently carried an amusing article on the mischances pf the traveller's property assem- blage, "At this time of year every one ls packing, has lately packed or is about to pack," says The Times which continues. It is an awful thought. From care, pain, exhaus- tion, and perhaps absurdity how lew can count on being exempt; pnly those indeed that are happy in a» perfect manservant or an irre- proachable maid who may be trust- »d to put everything in and to pack sverything properly. and those that have the strength of character and the skill to pack for themselves and to do it right. The remainder of visiting and travelling mankind is doomed to back-breaking labor (ne matter what efforts to dodge it are made by putting the luggage on the bed or on a couple of chairs), to hours of mind-racking fore-thought and indecision, to crushing demands on the memory; and--or (as the business-men have it) to ridiculous and shameful deficiencies at the journey's end, Whoever did the packing, were it the traveller or his deputy, has crumpled the dress shirts or squashed the collars, has let the stopper come out of the hair lotion, has forgotten the studs, the tie, the razor, the shoes, the waist- coast, the braces. .If it were only the comb, the tooth-brush, or some other merely useful little article of the toilet, it would not be very dif- ficult to rough it for a day or two without them. But the things art necessaries and must be borrowed, The whole household seems to get to know that so-and-so hag come without a dress-tie; when the demand is for braces, cor a waistcoat, or shoes, open ridicule, or a yet more galling silence is the portion of him who has already had to endure the polite disdain in the | bearing of the servant told off to wait upon him. As for the legend that a man once found himself at a Preat house without his dress trousers, common human feeling will lower reverent eyes before such sufferngs as his. There is only one earthly trial worse than packing or being pack- ed to go away, and that is being packed to go back again. There are houses where the packing is done so perfectly that it induces despair--as the sight of a cham- pion playing golf has been known to make men go home and burn their clubs. But to many a week- end visitor Monday morning is made even more hateful than it naturally is by anxiety about what other | is being done, while he swallows his bacon and eggs, to his clothes and effects. It is very kind of his hosts to save him the trouble of packing; but their kindness is sometimes greater than the skill or the time of their servants. Nothing indeed in domestic life is more remarkable than the varieties of mistake that can be made in packing even the simplest luggage. HAN NATURALLY QUITE RELIGIONS WRITER DECLARES Instinct of Worship Should Not Be Perverted or Thwarted London, Sept., --"Man is in- stinctively religious says a cor- respondent writing in a London newspaper. '"'A child manifests un- consciously an awareness not mere- ly of the mystery of life, but of the personal concern with it. God is very real to him Much, no doubt, is due to the environment in which he lives, but this is not the source of his consciousness of the unseen. Generation after generation men are driven by an inner energy of claim to clearer knowledge of the supernatural world or of powers by which special gifts may be secured to the initiated. Perhaps its worst results are seen in those stages of exaltation deliberately encouraged by some of the great mystery reli- gions. There is a true exaltation of the spirit which all the saints share. There are instances of it in the life of Moses, favored by the revelation on Mount Sinai; in St, John, who saw the Son of Man through the open door of Heaven; in St. Paul, who in his own words was taken up into the Third Heav- en: We recall that in the life of Christ there was the Transfigura- tion. Many of the martyrs have shared this experience, and it has been granted to humble men and women who in all ages have found in it their unspeakable happiness. On the other hand there is an exaltation of the religious instinct which drives men to believe them- selves to be in possession of such a' knowledge of God and the my- steries of life, human and divine, that they do not hesitate to claim a certitude of knowledge and its grace by which they are able to de- cide not merely what are the spir- itual destinies of their fellowmen but even the course of God's ordef- ing ofthe world, No extravagance is too grotesque for men in their fren- zy of exaltation. This condition may exist where it takes less obviously | pernicious forms. Sincere Christ- | tian men and women have some- | times become the victims of this hallucinations, life to show their apprehensfon and their sense of intimate relation to another world than that which is material.

Relatives of Sadhu Sundar Singh, an Indian Christian who visited Australia several years ago, were found by Mr, Cunningham at Dar- jeeling in North India in March. Sundar Singh was taken prisoner when he first visited Tibet, and he was told that if he returned he would be put to death, It was ru- mored, however, that he had died of cholera. Having learned to speak the Ti- betan languagee, Mr. Cunningham has frequently conversed with the lamas who pass into China, and from them he has obtained infor- mation of the political and religious organization of the country, The whole basis of its life, he said, was religious; the supreme ruler, the Dalai Lama, being both the reli- gious and political head. There were several cities with from 5,000 to 7,000 inhabitants, all of whom belong to the priestly caste of la- mas.
