Taylor Dale on "The Religi- ous Value of Memory," before the senior Bible class of the local Y.M. C.A. at their first, weekly session on Monday evening. The speaker re- ferred to the great heritage, we as Canadians, have in our national his- tory which should be familiar read- ing to every young man in this coun- try. This could not be over em- phasized, and the young men should be inspired when reading the noble achievements of those early pioneers d settlers, In continuing his nar- ritive, Mr. Dale told something of the lives and biographies of" a num- ber of our great men, as It were, "touching their bones' and receiving the highest inspiration. A strong plea was made by the speaker for everyone to give some earnest consid- eration to the task of storing the mind with the sacred, the good, the pure and the beautiful, which could only be attained by reading deeds and the witnessing of good scenes, which all became readily im- pressed on that great heritage, the memory. 3 F.
