the report which came from the icommittee on the bishops charge it was apropos of the recent visit of sir henry lunn to toronto it read l none who listened to the stirring words of sir henry lunn could have failed to realize the magnitude of his message calling us to a sense of the disastrous effect on the divisions of christendom and the duty of all to work and pray that ail who profess to call themselves christians may be led into the way of the truth and hold the faith in unity of spirit in the bond of peace and in righteousness of life there is no doubt went on the report that the dis- tunierrl which exists among christiansweakens the witness which the clturcn should dear to the world not until she speaks with one voice will it be possible for the church to convince the world

gift of expression in speech in writing in drawing or in music should neither discourage him from trying to increase his power of expression nor cause him to undervalue the importance of expression as a means to success and happiness in life aany persons think that power of acquisition is the first requirement for success and happiness that the acquisition of knowledge of wealth and of friends if the could all be gained simultaneously would be the surest guaranty of happiness perhaps they are right in so thinking but they shouldnot overlook the fact that the power to acquire depends almost as much on readiness in giving as as on the labor of taking in talk is cheap is a scornful epigram the application of which is often deserved but the talk that flows from sounds knowledge of a subject and from an earnestinterest and belief in it or from a friendly and hospitable attitude of mind toward peopleand their work is not cheap nor is it unprofitable to the i talker it wins from him the confidence and the liking of others it enables him the more readily to market his wares it induces reciprocal freedom and sincerity of speech and leads often to a dis covery of new opportunities as a man becomes known in his neighborhood for substantial qualities of character he finds increasing demands made upon his power of expression whether as a member of themunicipal council or as a citizen who is drafted for public service of some sort or other or as a leader in a large enterprise he has to cultivate his fatuity lor clear and persuasive expression the man who early in life appreciates the importance of cultivating that faculty is not likely to be at a dis advantage under the demands that are made upon hint as the years go on how would the city wan like it an exceedingly good

lilac bush contributed to sheaiity jialiilthrough eye and nostril it was noted that a section of the wire fence surrounding the place was lying flat when a small boy who had a aortdf air of pijoptrierorship came down from the house and a polite request was made as to whether the party might gather some of the lilacs the reply came at first a bit grudgingly the reason for this came out in a little story a whole truckloftd of folks drove up this afternoon he said and wjthout saym a word climbed up on the fence and began to cut off limbs when the fence werit over they laughed and went in

thing very vividh in a picture avfarmer and his family had drivenimothe city presumably to holiday tor the day they came early before the city man was up drove up on his front lawn and proceeded to

verandah posts and the farmer himself chopping up a flower trellis- to make kindling for the fire al- j ready laid in the lawn rockery exaggerated a bit probably but a pretty good illustration just the same of how city folks behave in the country and illustrating thereason also why folks in the country are sometimes so chary about alloying privileges to any kind of motorists it seems time for a
