HARRISON COMPANY Welsbach Inverted and Upright Tak PANY LRUTISH WIG, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 25, ois THE HALLS OF QUEEN'S -------- n SERMON PREACHED BY REV PROF. GEORGE JACKSON, No Students' Parade--The Conver. sazione on Dec. 15the--Alma Mater Election om Dec. Tth--A School for Rugby Football. I'he special preacher to students on Sunday afternoon in convocation hall was Kev. Prof. Ueorge Jackson, ol Victoria University, Toronto, who de livered a most thoughtful and inter esting sermon from au text found in the (th verse of the fast chapterof the Hook of Job. "Ihe Lord said to El phaz the Temamte, My wrath is kind- led against thee and against thy twe friends; for ve have not spoken of me the thing that 18 right as my servant Job hath, and from verse 14, of the 6th chapter of the same hook, "lo bim that is affected pity should Iw showed from 'his friend: but he iorsaketh the fear of the Almighty." The speaker pointed out that the Book of Joh, while if was one of the marvels of the world's literature, was vet a diflicult hook to read, it requir- od a trouble-taking reader. It denoted a debate between Job and his three frichds, over the cause of Job's trouble. The friends represented the orthodox view of the time, that all suffering was a.sign of sin. If Joh would but confess his an all would be well with him. Bat Job denied their premises. He has a conflict of new experience, and all through the book we see him waging war against half truths. The sting in Job's life was his ig norance of (he cause for all his trouble. It was a misnomer to speak of the patience of Joh. The Book of Job throbbed with divine impatience. Many of the expressions he mused were not those of subnussion but of de fiance. Yet Jehovah acquitted him at the end of the book, and the message of that book to doubters, was that courage, sincerity and loyalty to truth, would be rewarded. The Christ- ian Iaith in its full sense was not pos- sible without full understanding. With- out the Christian creed and faith you could not live a Uhristian life, An true faith was a certain spiritual re- eeptivaty, or as lennyson put it-- "There lives more faith in honest doubt than half the creeds." Job's friends lacked sympathy and this was what he longed for. To those about to enter the ministry, the best advice was found in the verser™ 'lo hum that is ready to famt, kindness is due from his iriends, even to him, that formketh - the lear of the Almighty." It mattered not-what church you join: ed, the high, the low or the broad, so long as you did mot join the hard church, The greal trouble was that sympathy was not given to those who had doubts about Uhristianity. Sym- patny could do much for suffering. There was a Jarge attendance at the Alma Mater society meeting on Sat- urday night, when much important business was transacted and a mast interesting debate listened to. Al] prospects of a students' pacide this vear vanished when the secre tary Of the Somiety read the 1st eommutictiion, stating that Science was opposed t6 such an undertal- ing. A letter was read from Dr. 8 W. Dyde, thanking Queen's 'or the honor done him in choosing him ac the first rector of the university, and accepting the office, The Aeschylean society was granted 'the use of the upper hal of the new Arts building for their social evening on December 6th. The date of the annual converial was fixed for December 16th, and the following will be the committee in charge: General convener, M. N Omond; cofivener invitation commit: tee, EB. T. Sting; refreshment, E. 'W. Boak; programme, A. Whytoek; decoration, N. G. Stewart; recap tion, R. M. Leslie. , The report of the election com- mittes was heard. . It recommended that the Alma Mater election be held on December 7th from 12 to 5.30 p. .m. All honorary members and all students will have the right to vote, Two booths will be establish ed in the new Arts building for la- dies, the other polling places being in the old Arts building. Then followed a long discussion over the advisability of submitting a referendum at the next Alma Ma- ter elections, asking the students if they were in favor of a university gold pin. By a small majority a motion to this effect was finally car- ried. then carried to amend A motion fe recommendations of clause 3 of \ the Executive committee Suncerning 80- jis evenings, so a8 to include P. jand PM's. we reasons for change will be submitted ate.

There is another strong contrast between ths Preludes Nos i. 22 and 2 of Chopin, and the same tsomposer's Waltz, A Flat Major; for the Preludes are typically the work f highly-strong nerves, while the Waltz is simply a joyous invitation to dance, Bach's Three-part- Fugue, in A Minor, requires a sKiirul arust to deal with it, for its theme is com- plicated by having a triple melody running through it, while it seempn {io show the composer's rather con- temptuous outlook on the hurly- burly of every-day human Hf: In her * piaving of Blliumann's Sonata in G hi Hallock showed a real love of her art Tehalkowski's "Skylark" was re- ceived With great entnumasm, we of the whole performance. at the whole programme.
