The present | victory at the polls is a for Canadian democracy. The people [of Canada, after having been gaggeq | tor the last sixteen months, feel now | that they have a voice in the 80V- | ernment of the day. History repeats itself, and as William Lyon Macken- zie fought so hard for responsible government so hig grandson, Hon, William Lyon Mackenzie King, led the fight for responsible government by the parliament instead of auto- | cratic government by the cabinet, In | this fight he was helped by the ma- Jority of the returned soldiers, many of whom cast their first vote on do- | mestic Issues, That Gen.

It is well for Christian people to | ponder this deeply. We are all too apt to isolate God to His work of re- | the | But nature | ; and man and God are a great unity, | demption in the heart of | greatest of His creation. man, and therefore interdependent, and we do violence to the idea of ihe work of the Lord when we leave out of our ! purview any aspect "of this Divin. | Process which is working out God's | will in the world. | Apply this to conduct and charae- | ter, which js the end of conduct | You will observe how "nothing use- | less #8 or low." When Pan! wrote it meant great sacrifice to become a ! In onr day and in our | | Christian, |1and, it means now almost anything | except sacrifice.

Is ji merely for figures {in a book which represents an ac- { count in a bank, or is it that God's | children may have | Jective is that men need bread and | He grows wheat to supply that need. | Again, what is the motive in the heart of the worker? Religion, or at least the Christian religion, demands that men shall lve for ang work for the good of men, and the underlying motive of such work is love and ser- | vice. It is for all the world a sort of mother love, that is willing to slave late and early that the children may be clothed and feq and reared in | decency and in honor, . God works for this end for all His Creation; we must bring our motives to this touch. stone of reality, It will mean much to Canada when unholy ambition and unchristian competition give place to this nobler objective and this Christian motive.
