As we have been reading lie re- ports of examînationa of different universities, colleges, high. public and I other educational institutions we have thouglit what a great numbor of clever men and women Canada would soon contain if ail these young persons would go on doing thoir ut- inost te develop the natural talents with wiich God lias endowod them. Then wo came acroas a copy of The B3rotherhood Messenger of Montreal containing tuis comment and original poomn by a Durham CountY boy jour- nalist of that eastorfi city who lias wrtten many pooma: Just a Sunday or two before Dr. IStafford closed bis spring engage- Iment at St. James Churcli, Montreal, lie preached one morning from the lext: -Undrneath are the Everlast- ing Arma." The message was f ull of inspiration and conf ort. and will long be remomberedl by thoso wlio jhoard it. one of tic listener as Mr.R. Luther Werry, a member of the jBrotherhood of the Churci. He was impressed with the text and the thouglit came with great force to him thalt tus would make a wonderful tlieme for a poem. The feeling grew on himi as days passed. By degrees inspiration for somo verses grew in has mmid and heart, wilh the result tiat lie wrote the following verse- message and dedicated it te Dr. Staff ord: The Everlasting Armns (Dout. XXXIII. 27) Thore's a precious, precieus message Uttered by the voico of God Spoaking words of peace wion bod- ing fear alarma; How it soothea my weary spirit When the loilsome path Ive trod: -Undorneath thee are the everiasting arma."

Underneath thee are the evorlasting armns. After prepai'ing tic foregoing copy for is Talk, we found among aur clippîngs tus article in Rural Youth. items of interest te the mon and w ýomen of to-morrow in The Farmers' Sun of Toronto conducted by a clov- oer lady oditor who signa Joan. the heading being, Wiero Are thc Young Men?, and begins by asking choese pertinent questions: Is il truc tiat tic world today is being ruled by its aid mon?

Or- just possibly, is it because tie old Imen xho do hold leadership are ie- luctant te surrender il, se that Ihose who weuid be their nialural succoas- ors do net altaîn that position until they theimselvcs have rcached mniddle Certain curionîs folk have been on- quiring thus. and My Magazine, an iEngliali publication. givos ils readers somo rathei nterestîng figures as te the rosult of the enquiry. To begin wili, iA rallier dumbfounds os by de- claring that an attcmPt te) discover in Great Britétin and the dominions of the empire the namei of young men who shiow Promise of future grealness. has resulted in a very dis- 'appointing response. -Wc have none! " came the answer f rom difflor- ont parts of tic empire. Tiroe prospects, and not long recovered f rom bad illness, entered the British parliament when he was twenty-one. His first speech made hlm a power in the land, and at twenty-four he was prime minister. Gladstone, an earnest. high-prin- cipled young man, entered the same house of parliament at twenty-three and was known ail over the kingdom within a Year. Spurgeon was a lad in bis 'teens when he drew ail Lon- don to hear hlm preach. There has been no youthful preacher in our day approach his fame. Moody, too, the great American evangelist, began his preaching at nineteen. Today, it would seema that we like our religious teachers to be mature. It is bard to believe now that earlY in Queen Victoria's reign the most influential newspaper in the world bad as its editor a young man of twenty-three, by name of Delane. He splendidly justified the choice. and in a short time placed his paper at the highest pinnacle it had ever reached. In literature, too, men made their mark much earlier in the Victorian era than today. Tennyson had pub- iished poems that ensured bis im- mortality when he was twenty-one. Dickens stepped to f ame when he was twenty-four with -Pickwick Papers." Brc.wning had niade a great success at twenty-flve; Disraeli attracted the attention of the world as a novelist Iwhen lie was only twenty, and wear- ied of public prominence before he wvas twenty-one. The closest parallel Io these in our time is Kipling, who acquired a reputation in England jwhen lie was twenty-four, and had been known in India some years be- fore that. But nearly ail our popu- lar authors today are at least middle- aged. Today's Great Men It is rather interesting to contrast the leaders of generations past with those of today . When examining the lives of well-known figures in com- merce, learning, and public if e, the proportion of active veterans is sur- prising. John Galsworthy is sixty- seven and Rudyard Kipling is sixty- four; Edison is stili. at egty-three, dreaming of f resh achievement; Dr. Nansen is planning new explorations at sixty-eight; Germany, building up her fallen fortunes. looked to Hin- denburg. now eighty-two. to iead the republic. The outstanding leaders in France are ail old men; Poincare is seventy. and Clemenceau died at eighty-eight. The great exception to the rule is Mussolini, who is still in the middle thirties. 0f course, we must remember that To-day it is fully recognized that greater conservation of vis- ion for the increased efficiency and welf are of humanity, is an absolute necessity. Eyestrain is directiy caused by an imperfectly shaped eyeball or gradual decrease in eye-lens con- vexity power, necessitating an ex- cessive exertion of the eye muscles, thuts producing visual discomifort, which is overcome when rlghtly fltted glasses are worn. Most likely you rieed glasses if you have frequent headache; if you cannot read a reasonable length of time without causing the eyes to alche: if in sewing or other fine work things suddenly become bhurr cd and misty; if you have to rest your eyes occasionally to en- ab1)le you to continue work; if you have to hold things nearer to or fart her f rom your eyes than the normal distance of f ourteen inches; if strong light or moving picture shows hurt your eyes, or if you are conscious of any effort in seeing. These conditions are successful- Iy corrected by our Registered Op- tometrist. R. M. Mitchell, who is 3legally authorized to best deter- Smine when glasses are needed and 1the kind to prescribe.

'Macdonald Principal of Orde St. School, Toron- to, wbo lias been appointed by the Board of Education as one of the two new public school inspoctors for Tor- onto. Dr. Macdonald is son 0f the late Mr. and Mrs. John Macdlonald, Bowmanville. our mode of living lias changed very mucli during the past century. We do not grow up se quickly. and we do not grow old se soon. In those days, Young people married earlier and retired from work carlier. A man in early thirtios was a matured solidly-placod citizen. He usually thought hlmself midGile-aged, grew a beard, ruled hais growing family strictly, and regardod pilyingy h follies of youth. The man who kcpt on with active work after flfty was looked upnwt pity; the man leading an active h after sixty was a wonder. Th o man of forty woro a cap. anddfn Jtely took ber place among the eIders. Today men icaci active lîvos until they are seventy and aftor. whîle a woman of flfty leads mucli the same kind of 1ife as lier dauglitor of twen- ty, and at firat glance 't miéht. not be easy to distinguish betwecn thein. In business, the eiders ivho two gonerations ago gladly gave control of Iheir affaira into the hands of Iheir sons or assistants3 beforo liey were fifty or much eider. nowý remain activoly in worl: for perhaps lwenty years longer. 'Men livo healihier livos than in the old days. take more exercise. are more careful of their food, and givo themsclvos more holi- days. Thoy are able to keep on at -in age when work wouid once have been a burden te thein. and are glad to do so. Tbey have discoveied that work is the most enjoyable thing in lifo, and are rltîctant to surrender it. Witb ago efficient and active today as perbapa neyer before. the battle for youth to make its mark is nalur- ally more strenuous. Men and women are going to liave longer time for preparation and longer for maturing. In some ways this is good. but My Magazine warns us that it is net altogother so. The world needs opti- mism. the eneregy. the f resh view- point which youth can give. Il is the Young mon who seo visions. and il is for the worid to give youth its full opportunity while age yot f ulfils its dostiny. One thing is clear. The Young who wish to reach places of influence and power mnust strive harder tian over. watch opportunities. economizo time, concentrato effort, and go bravely forward. The next great advance in the world, net in invention or mater- ial progress, but in human good. will corne when youth. impatient of short-comings, takos its courage in its hands and strikes out boldly for better things.

A FAIR BAROMETER r (High River Times, Recording news is only one funct- ion of the newspaper. By its adver- 1 tisements it records also the business, if e of the city or town. It is a pretty 1 fair barometer of business 1f e, as ît ebbs and flows through the streets, but its advertising pages show up theI business houses which are abreast of the times arnd those which are sunk in a rut. Advertisments tell a story of enterprise and initiative. Each one lias a personality back of it and the cleverest, most inviting advertisment lis the one througli which the person- aiity shows. The newspaper adver- tisement is the greatest stimulant of purchases known. It directs the pur- chasing of f ood, fuel, clothing. of )necessities, luxuries and indulgencies.
