BARCLAY WARREN, It was a beautiful warm day late in October. A few leaves had fall- en-but most of them in all their glory, tinted in shades of gold and crimson, were still held. proudly aloft against the pale blue sky. The stately evergreens added to the beauty of the scene. Softly we trod into the cemetery on the hillside. There amidst flow- ers we laid the body of the young mother, Two little children, aged three and five, were playful. Nature had kindly shielded them from the full realization of their loss. Their father; still stunned, knew better the significance of the expression. "What is home without Mother?" Relatives and friends, overflowing with: sympathy, were there in great numbers. Yes, it was sad. Yet there were some. features which alleviated the sadness, The young mother had testified that she was trusting in Jesus Christ as her Saviour. Some- how we sensed His presence there. As He was moved with compassion for the widow of Nain.as she led the pr i panying the body. of her only son, so He was compassionate here. In fancy we saw Him weep with friends here as He wept at the grave of Lazarus. We were assured that He cared and that assurance brought comfort to us all, "Does Jesus care when I've said good-bye To the dearest on earth to me, And my sad heart aches, till it nearly breaks, Is it aught to Him? does He see? Cho. O yes, He cares, I know He cares, His heart is touched with my grief; When the days are weary, long nights dreary, I know my Saviour cares." Two New Ranks For Navy P.O.'s Ottawa, Nov. 13--(CP)--Creation of two new ranks for naval petty officers was announced Friday by Defence. Minister Claxton.

Sr.) SEEN i | SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON FOR SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 21, 1948 By NEWMAN CAMPBELL POETRY is defined in the dic- tionary as "a metrical composition produced or embellished by creative imagination," or, as someone has said, "verbal compositions, imag- inative and concrete in matter, and emotional and rhythmic. in form. Poets are inspired by feelings of beauty, by love, grief or a desire to praise, or even humor, as in the beloved, diverting lines of Lewis Caroll. Poems are often set fo music, and we sing them when we are happy, when, in church or Sun- day School, we want to praise the Lord, the Creator. The poetry of the Bible is not expressed in rhyme, and modern poetry is often written in like man- ner--in beauty. of phrase and thought, but not necessarily in what we call rhyme. There is what is called philo- sophical poetry in our Bible, as in the Book of Job; lyrical poetry that expresses emotions and experiences, as in the Psalms; songs of praise to | Jehovah for His goodness, as in the rejoicing of the two mothers, Han- | nah and Mary, mothers of Samuel and Jesus, which are part of our lesson today. There are also songs of despair as well as of hope, in the writings of the prophets. You will recall Jehovah's prom- | ise of a son to Hannah, wife of Elkanah, who prayed for a child and her promise to give him to the Lord. True to her word, when | her child Samuel was born, Han- nah took him to Eli, prophet of God and then she fell on her knees, praising God, for His goodness. After the Angel Gabriel had vis- ited Mary, a humble maiden, and announced that she would be the mother of Christ, Mary too sang praises to God for selecting her above all women for this infinite honor. Her exquisite song of praise is called the Magnificat from which our word magnificient comes. It is an enlargement of the song Han- nah sung to Jehovah hundreds of years before Mary's time. Mary thanked the Lord for remembering those of low degree, the hungry, the humble, and for scattering the proud, the mighty and the rich, David: forgot or forgave Saul and Jonathan who were slain in battle with the Philistines, is beau- ig ag beauty of Israel s slain upon y high places: are the mighty fallen: © S35 ow SPIRITUALIST CHURCH LOF.
