Reviewing social relationships, in- dustrial world conditions and inter- national] affairs, Rev, Mr. Burch, at the morning service, made a power- ful appeal for a fuller manifestation { of Christianity in the individual life | and deplored the worship of mater- | ialism ss being the foundation of all present day evils. He took for his text Jeremiah XVIII: 6, "O house of Israel, cannot I do with you as this potter? saith the Lord. Behold as the clay is in, the hands of the pot- ter, so are y€ in mine hand, O house of Israel." The prophet saw that destruction was threatening Israel, and he desir- ed to show God's absolute power over the destiny of nations, As the pot- ter, God would destroy what he found defective and restore it again. The speaker found the truth of Jer- emiah's' warning to Israel and its fulfillment in the destruction of the Roman Empire and in the last great war, when the whole world was in- volved. But the world has not learn- ed the lesson. Jeremiah was called a pessimist and ignored because he the direction of | is enough," (Eljah) in splendid | voice, Misa Edith 8.

SEAL RECORDS Caruso, Enrico 87321--A Dream--That human being who never has been haunted throughout the day by the memory of dreams, is lacking in hu- man experience, has missed, indeed, much of the beauty and the mystery of life. Here is a song, the memory song of a love-dream which, as Caruso interprets it, never could have found its inspiration, perhaps, under the bare light of day and the cold processes of reason. Itis' a song that practically everyone knows, for the concert singers of a generation have made it familiar through- out the modern world. But you never have heard it as Caruso sings it, and you may never hear it so sung again. The above and other Caruso Records obtainable ati-- R. J.

"But," said the speak- er, "it was a cursed peace, for at the very same time the forces of war were accumulating. Were we pre- pared for that message of peace? Lord Roberts knew that we were not and wore out his soul trying to convince those who would not hear. He died with a broken heart be- cause he knew England had been de- serted when she should have been prepared. Material Success. We have placed too high an esi- mate upon material success and have seen kings of industry created in a short time. By this we have meas- ured success, but we were spiritual- ly blind and constructed a false standard of success measured by ma- terial things. We even speak of "the better classes in the church and better classes of membership." Whom did we mean? Did we mean those living clean lives and without blood taint of heredity? Have you in mind virtue and are you'think- ing of purity? Too often wo meant those who paid most to the church funds and whose names spelt gold. In old Testament times the bless- ings of God were spelt in pureneids of blood. We call ourselves great or successful or fortunate just as wy are able to buy and we have laid the burden upon the fathers and moth- ers' who are the only real assets of the land and mpde it harder for those upon whom it was laid. The big spaces in the world were for those who needed them least. That was the condition before the war. The Evening Service, At the evening service Rey.

Two, Chief Justice Meredith and Justice Latchford, agree with Justice Kelly that public policy was infringed. " Two of the judges, Justices Len- nox and Middleton, state that Har- ris should receive $17,000 mere than he has. Chief Justice Meredith and Justice Riddell say tha: he earned no commissions. "That which the plaintifl desired, sought and contracted to sell, and which alone was of any use to the defendants, and so the only substan- tial consideration for their contract to buy, was the influence of one of the highest ministers of the crown in the British government (Lora Buckmaster, Chancellor) and of other persons in high official stand- ing in Great Britain; an influénce to be procured in the one instance, through the ties of family connee- tion, and in the other those of per- sonal acquaintanceship." "Tell that to the marines," the Chief Justice says he is tempted to say In answer to a suggestion that a ¢ompany capable of manufacturing ammunition in enormous quantity, needed such influence tp get an at- tentive and anxious hearing at a time when British armies were in danger of disastrous defeat for want of shells. Especially, he remarks, a company, such as the defendants, "headed by the capable and per- sistent president they had, and, one who was both a member of the upper house and an officer of high rank--even if only what is called "honorary" in the Canadian 'militia. Justice Riddell says the plaintiff was but a fly on the wheel in the sécuring of contracts. ' Justice Lennox would reverse the trial judgment, and direct judgmen: to be ordered for the plaintiff for $17,639.66 with interest from Sept. 5th, 1917. Justice Middleton finds nothing fmproper in the transaction. He says: "No one in authority was to be improperly influenced, no public servant was to be called upon to de- part fyom his primary obligation to the public. I am glad to reach this 1237,015,000.
