D0, Bern Jesus stood on trial before Pilate, but it was Pilate who wag really be- ing tried. He who posed as judge has stood condemned throughout the ages. History has been full of such strange reversals of judgment. The despised prophet, stoned or disregarded in his own generation, has frequently been the chief occa- sion for the world to remember that generation. Though the Christian movement had not gathered great external strength when Paul wrote the words, he was a true seer when he wrote of God choosing "the weak things of this world to confound the.things that are mighty, and the things that are naught to bring to naught the things that are." Pilate regarded Jesus with the not-unkindly contempt = 'which the man of ambition, and power, 4nd success, has for the impractical man, the dreamer and visionary. There is no indication of venom, or of hatred, or even of prejudice and antagonism. If there is any prejudice it seems more against the accusers of Jesus whose fanaticism and rabid tolerance Pllate seemed to regard with scorn. © There is evidence in the narrative that Pilate, assuming at first toWwhra Jesus an attitude of amused and ing a measure of respect and fear. He discovered that he had before him no vague and ordinary dfeamer. better before us than He fared be- fore Pilate? Do.we state that we "find no fault in him," but none the less send Him away as Pilate did? Knew He Lied. Pilate took water and washed his hands before the multitude, saying "I am innocent of the blood of this just person." But he knew that he led. No ceremonial can cleanse the Hurry!

You must say "California" or you may get an imitation fig syrup. Reginald Heber, the autaor of "From Greenland's Icy Mountains," was borm in Cheshire, England, in 1783. He is justly regarded as one of the greatest of all hymn-writers, for while he only wrote fifty-seven hymns, they are ell in use. It is questionable whether this can be said of any other hymn-writer. It is true that the names of .Charles Wesley and Isaac Watts are seen over and over again in hymnals, but it must be remembered that a large number of hymns they composed have never been made use of. Charles Wesley alone composed over six thousand hymns. Reginald Heber was born amid favorable circumstances, and he made the most of his privileges. At an early age he was sent to Oxford, and when only seventeen years of age he distinguished himself by composing a remarkable poem on Palestine, which won him a prize. His fellow students, and even the college pro- fessors, heaped upon him the most extravagant praise; but fortunately it did not spoil him. After his great success his parents found him kneel. ing in prayer. Thus dM he keep humble throughout MNfe, He qutered the ministry of the Church of England at a time when hymns were just begiziing to be sung. There were still many people who did not care for their use, but the prejudice was dying. Then a great wave of missionary enthusiasm swept over England, and the atten- tion of young Heber went out to the mission field, On Saturday, May 29, 1339; he was visiting this father-in-law at Wrexham vicarage, when he was sud- denly asked to write a missionary hymn for the service on the tollow- guilt of a man who has ted to wrong, by not doing what is in his power to prevent it. It is easy to say that Pilate was a coward, but it is more important to discover the things that made him a coward. What were they? Vanity, ambi- tion, lust of preferment 'snd power, cynicism, and the failure to find any law of justice an right and service, The Pilates have been many, but there is only one Jesus of Nasaleth. They have been seemingly tri- uniphant, but the world is stréwm with the wreck of their rule and empire, while the King of Truth still goes forth conquering and to conquer.

That talk they had on ms; able them be sales In The Watchman notices that King- ston sent two of its "Toms" to To- i Ff £ ing day. Whether those who asked thought it possible that a hyma could be written to order, and at such a short notice, it is hard to say; but young Heber retired to another part of the room and, while the conver- sation was still going on, he compos- ed the first three stanzas of the hymn which is now so well known. When he showed them to his friends, they expressed their delight and said that the hymm as written was complete. He insisted, however, tha there was a sense of incom- pleteness, and so the fourth verse, beginning "Watt, waft, ye winds His story," was written, and the four stanzas are sung everywhere. Boon after the hymm had been composéd a copy was sent to Miss Mary Howard, of Savanneh, Ga. U.S.A. She admired the hymn great- ly and 'wanted a tune for it. She sent the hymn to a young bank clerk in Savannah who had a faculty for com- posing suitable tunes, and in half an hour he sent it back with the delight- fully sultable tune which is now sung the world over with the famous hymn, The young clerk was Lowell Mason, and he not only made himself fam- ous, but greatly enhanced .the popu- larity of the hymn, as he did the oth- er hymns which he set to music. Beside this hymn, Heber, who be- came a Bishop, wrote a number of others, almost as wicely known. Among these are: "The Son of God Goes Forth to War"; "Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God Almighty"; "Bright est and Best of the Sons of the Morning"; "By Cool Siloam's Shady Rill" Like so many other hymn writers, Reginald Heber was a man of beautiful character. He died in India, where he was of Cal outta, on April 3, 1826, at the early age of 43. without a great strain on rocket books, their Good evening, have you done your crossword puzzle yet? -- It was a strange place that thief chose to hold up a lady and take her purse the other might.

London, Feb. 18,--Not many wo- men in England to-day do "Spring Cleaning," that annual ritual of scrubbing and cleaning that 30 years ago used to drive every man to his club for a couple of weeks. But "Spring Cleaning" is still part of the domestic routine at Buckingham Pal- ace, and as soon as Queen Mary got back to town from their country place this week, she started making plans. : Every year she goes through the entire stock of the Palace linen and plate and visits every room in the Palace to see what wants renovating. Then a long schedule is drawn up of what has to be done, and the "Spring Cleaning" starts. It fs only fair to add, however, that the bulk of it is done when the Royal Family goes to Windsor Castle for Easter. Probably the people who are most glad to see the Queen back in town for the season are the theatrical mane agers. She never misses a play worth seeing and her visit to their theatre means a great deal. When she was Duchess of York she was known by her family as "The Critic." And King George's choice of plays is still in the Queen's hands. London Season. The London season may be said to have started with the wonderful ban- quet with which the retiring Ameri- can Ambassador and Mrs. Kellogg entertained King George and Queen Mary at Crewe House on Friday night. The great dining room was a picture of flowers and shaded lights, and Queen Mary wore a gown of cloth of gold, sewn with diamonds and sapphires and she wore the les- ser Stars of Africa in her corsage. People are flocking back to town. On the day the king and queen re- turned the Duke and Duchess of Su- therland, who have been in Palm Beach, Florida, returned -.to their town house, and the Duke and Duch- ess of Devonshire, the Earl and Countess of Bradford and vi Grey of Falloden are amongst those | who have also opened their houses. The opening of parliament has provided three dazzling political re- ceptions and there was a flame of jewels at Lady Londonderry's and Jaay BHvelyn ception at 10 Grosvenor Street, on Tuesday night. Political receptions, by the way, are not the dull, official affairs they were in the Victorian era. There was dancing to the Savoy Hav- ana Band after midnight and there ra golden rivers of champagne, ing the busiest weeks of a bu ear. There have been receptions by the French Ambasssador in their honor, by Lady Astor and the American Wo- men's club, and the Premier's Mrs. Baldwin, is taking Mrs. Kellogg to the great reception at Claridge's Ren Dame Elles Terry is being hon- ored. town Limps Are Fashionable, At the moment accidents are fash- fonable fn London--that is, if they entail a limp, "Hurt my ankle ski-ing," they ex- plain to you, and you sympathize ac- cordingly. When the boat train ar- rived from the Continent the other night eight people were wearing car- pet slippers. Not all the Limps are genuine, however, and if you ask their owners to a dinner party or a dance it is remarkable how quickly they disappear. Another conceit at the moment is to have "G.B." on the back of your auto. That shows that you and your auto have been abroad--at least about one in three is the genuine label fixed by the Fremch customs. Hats of 15 Years Ago.
