things will- that i got my wish my dear son bill i had dreams and plans for my son bill dreams and plans the years to nil but i didnt tell him i was young and stern tls grandmothers who have lived long enough to learn amartha waslwlthbusy hands trying to meet my familys demands x did not take time to do what i might to fit him for the worlds hard fight too trusting was he to tender of heart too mindful of others to take his own part so the world struck him hard as the world always will and my heart was sore troubled for my dear son bui but he did what was right and hung on to his grit till time took the trouble and made a man with it a man with a backbone whose will was made strong to fight for the weak and to battle with wrong to win by fair play or to fail at the job with justice to self yet no man to rob and faith was awakened in this son of mine as he followed the precepts of the leader divine and my proud heart is singing as it sing ever will as i thank god for giving me my son bui we talk about our motor cars and chesterfields so grand but do we ever pause to laud the trees throughout our land where would we be from land to sea if good old trees were not to be our houses churches ships and food our heat our railway trains our news our rivers streams would not obey if good old trees were not to be where would the artist get the cue for landscape lanes and streams the glow of sunset through the leaves where would old motherearth re gain her strength for garden plot and countrylife restore if good old trees were not to be how could the birds and une and squirrels and bees all shelter neath the friendly leaves and tall poles stand and hold the wires through stronrraln and carry words of joy and pain if good old trees were not to be so when i think ol beavenland and its sublimity i seem to see tall swaying trees and little birds all gold and white and tiny stars all through hie leaves and moonbeams me through the sky i just cant think that i could lie at rest if good old trees were not to be and when im gone i want a grand old tree a sentinel to keep watch over me and golden maples shedding friendly leaves to shelter me an evergreen to stay to apeak immortality how could i rest in peace if good old trees were not to be a lifetime vacation from grief what can we do about it people cry with an air of futility when day alter day they read the reports of death and injury by acldents on on tarios streets and highways the steadily- mounting toll of fatui ties reported in the headlines and de picted in newspaper photographs brings vividly before us the terrific and needless waste or life watch a happy family on a picnic in thfi ginrln jiutofdqoxs that is the heritage of all canadians could there be a more ideal scene than this the family together- en joying th day together yet over this family over all fami lies whether on vacation or in town there hangs the threat of tragedy which motoring carelessness can bring surely the glorious summer months which we eagerly grasp before winter comes must be made safe for all but again there is the futile cry what can we do traffic accidents can be prevented if everyone is alert if everyone is careful if everyone play safe the ailtoo common street and highway tragedies depicted every day and every week in our newspapers are easily explained they may all be explained by one word care lessness carelessness on some bodys part because accidents rarely happen by themselves a motorist speeding on a narrow highway on a dark night with only one headlight burning knows a menace but does not care what is the result he confuses an on coming driver in charge of a precious cargo of human life in the twink ling of an eye five lives are no more the car driver who alight from the left aide onto traffic lanes is careless of his life his back is usually to on coming traffic he gives no chance for trucks and autos to avoid him when he suddenly steps in their way carelessness again with tragic results the law of common sense forbids a man walking on a highway at night to use the righthand side of the road this is for his own protection for he cannot see unless be looks back every minute when cars are coming behind him nor is he clearly visible to mot orists until it is too late for this the department of highways constantly urges him to use the left side of the road smce he can see what is coming towards him and step aside when necessary the jaywalker is careless and pays for his folly with his life the motorist who speeds by- a street car before allowing pasengers to alight and cross to the sidewalk with safety not only violates the law on the statue books but he breaks the law of common decency for the passen ger solely intent on getting down the street car steps hasnt a chance against the speeding reckless driver such driving is criminal negligence and criminal carelessness what chance on the other hand has thecar driver when a child bounds from behind another car to retrieve a ball none whatever boys and girls know that the street is not a safe playground when they use it as such they pay with their lives the greatest folly of all is the race to beat a railway train to a crossing not under the most pressing ot all circumstances is such a race conceiv ably necessary what an unequal race it is how puny after all is the mot or car as compared to the iron mon ster there is no hame in letting sunuei spiritual revival uniform swntfay school september 4th 193ft golden text prepare your hearts unto tte lord and serve him only 1 samuel 7 3 passage 1 samuel 7 13 teach me some melodious sonnet flaming tongues above while jroy heart with joy oerflowing dwells on gods unchanging lore robert robinson a vital church 5 4 can the church save the world certainly a divided church weakened by materialism and professionalism cannot saye the world a church that partitions life into sacred and secu lar departments and that is content to have religion little mare than mild inspiration on sunday morning can not possibly save the world but a church that takes christ seriously and carries ohis will into all areas of life can save the world and is the only power that possibly can sam uel challenged his ration to serve god and the people responded fear and the desire for deliverance from a cruet foe may have helped to supply the motive for their response but along with these mixed motives was a gen uine turning to god through the ap peal of samuel samuels career had been so spotless that in an hour of national emergency he could summon his people to faith and prayer confession of sin 5 6 the meeting of mizpeh was a time of national stocktaking there is something curative- in facing moral facts and knowing the worst the is not comfortable and it is painful to pride but it is the way reformation comes samuel had the people fast for a day hunger quick ening their spiritual sensitiveness they publicly admitted that they had sinned against god and samuel judg ed the people assessing praise and blame over a year ago the archbis hop of canterbury issued an appeal urging the people or the british isles to return to religion the appeal was much discussed but no widespread return to religion followed as a re sult last spring the englishspeak ing world celebrated the bicentenary of the conversion of john wesley and it was predicted thai there would be demonstration of evangelism but it did not come the truth is that a revival cannot come in a wholesale way it is work among individuals that counts beginning with oneself first of all when there is noticeable moral quality in a life it becomes con tagious and communicable won by may appear to be a slow process but it is the normal way in which the christian faith spreads prayer in wartime 7 s this lesson will awaken many mem ories in those who lived through the great war they will remember the prayer meetings that were held and the huge crowds attending church services when some crises some people said that the war was a blessing in disguise because it made people turn to god but in all too many cases the piety did not last the great war was followed by an era of moral license a decade of pleasure seeking stock speculation and money making followed and only a long drawn out depression has shown the folly of trying to live for selfish purposes this does not argue against the benefits of prayer in war time or in any other crises what it does teach is that prayer is more than a way of escape from the con sequences of our own sins true pray- ls seeking the will of god not trying to force our desires upon god the trouble with much prayer is that it is used to get out of a jam like a sick man going to a doctor to be re lieved of pain but without the slight est intention of obeying the laws of health when his malady has been cured unseen factors 911 there is a cynical saying that god is always on the side of the big bat talions this statement is far from true over and over in military his tory we read of some unforseen fac tor turning the tide of battle a storm destroyed the spanish armada the delay of blucher was a factor in the battle of waterloo in the world war at least one battle was lost through soldier foraging in wine cel lars in conquered territory low visi bility was a factor at jutland gid eon with only three hundred men us- strategy that gave him victory over a large army opposing him here a thunderstorm discomfited the philistines and gave the victory to samuel and the israelites what others may describe as a coincidence was considered by samuel to divine deliverance then la much loose thinking about what opmd- dences are to some they are the merest chance while to others who have surrendered their problems to ood in prayer they are regarded as direct answers to earnest intercession if we believe that ood has a plan for our uvea at all the plan must cover the small things as well as the great bis doors awing on little hinges the god we trust is wise and powerful enough to care for details as well as large purpose is 13 samuel well knew the shortness of human memory and the fickleness of popular gratitude he felt thenece- aity for some visible aid to remem brance so he took a stone and set it memorial after the great war memorials were set up in thous- ands of places and last yea canada dedicated the beautiful memorial at vimy it is significant that the chief sacrament in the christian religion is an act of remembrance jesus know- how prone we are to forget he therefore- instituted a sacrament- us ing bread and wine as symbols he broke the bread and poured out the wine and asked his followers to eat the bread and drink the wine in re membrance of him no one can cal culate the spiritual power that has come through the sacrament just by helping men and womeno remem ber the life an death of christ- the words of the nylon asffial the gos pel story be retold often for i for get so soon the pity is that ws do forget lifes highest experiences and most sacred loyalties- the spiritual life depends in no small measure upen the use of memory by which great hours of the past may be present possessions and aids questions for discussion religious interpretation is this of history samuel was both a spiritual leader stances a military and give other ln how has
