The story, famil- |iar to everyone from childhood, had |been told in various forms, but it remained for Bernard Shaw to draw |aside the veil and almost shock his | hearers into a realization of the "Maid of Orleans" as she was, the | mystic maiden hearing voices urging | her to save France for Frenchmen, and to save Frenchmen from a {downward course. Human she was withal, a very woman, a devout Catholic and yet a valiant Protes- tant, for, in the opinion of the speak- er, a convinced Catholic must be a constitutional Protestant. The Latin derivation of 'protestant' from "pro" "for" and "test" 'to witness," means a witness for the truth and it is only those who have a living faith who will witness to it who DECIDED TO PURCHASE AN AIR COMPRESSOR The Utllities Commission to Economize in Expenditure on Excavation Work. At a meeting of the Public Utili- ties Commission held on Monday morning, it was decided to purchase an Ingersoll-Rand air compressor, through the company's local repre- sentative, at a cost of $2,155. A road drill at $210, a clay drill at $114 and a pavement breaker at $215 will also be purchased from the same firm, making the total expenditure $2,694. The question of purchasing an air compressor as a means ot economy in excavation work, has been under consideration by the | commission for some time, and fol- | lowing the decision of the commis- | sion, Chairman McFarlane and | Manager Folger made an inspection of air compressors and submitted a report. a aa Carnovsky, 670 Princess street, | complaining about surface water in his cellar, and the matter was re- ferred to the city council to deal with. { Chairman McFarlane and Manage Te -- PROBS: --Fair and cool to-night and on Tuesday. 1881-1925 A letter was received from T.

[MP "Saint Joan" Shaw had been said [to have made his heroine vilify the English, but the dean could not see this. He felt that Joan had shown no bitterness against the English. | Her desire was that they 80 back to their own country, and even against the princes of the church who con- demned her to a fearful death, she seemed to feel that it was their lack of comprehension rather than theiy malice that sent her to the stake. Four hundred years after the mar- tyrdom of "The Maid" she was can- onized. The Roman church was big enough to acknowledge a mistake. No word against the young girl who raised the siege at Orleans had ever been proved. She was a spotless maiden, reverenced and beloved by "her soldiers." The dean was in France in 1920 when the beatification of Saint Joan took place and early in the morning in the cathedral at Rheims, where Jean d'Arc crowned the Dauphin, were women, working at a sou a day to repair the damage of the Ger- man guns. "It is for love of La Belle France," they said. The same spirit inspired them as lived in "The Maid of Or- leans," the spirit of Christian patri- otism. Not all patriotism is Chris- tian. There were patriots before the day Jesus Christ came to live and die to bring His spirit into the love of country and to lift it to the "righteousness that alone exalteth a nation." The dean announced before be- ginning his sermon that on St. George's day he had received a let- ter from Rt. Rev. Dr. Manning, Epis- copal Bishop of New York, enclosing a cheque of $100 for the centennary fund and wishing the congregation Godspeed and all success in their undertaking. The dean announced that over $1,000 had already been subscribed by well wishers of St. George's. At evensong Master Billy Laird sang a solo in the anthem, "Ten Thousand Times Ten Thousand," in a clear voice and with a good enun- ciation. -- Charge Dismissed. The case of a Joyceville woman, who had her husband summoned to appear before County Magistrate Bradshaw on Monday morning, did not materialize on account of the women in the case failing to appear at the court at the hour set for the trial. The county magistrate waited for about three quarters of an hour and then announced that the charge was: dismissed. County Magistrate F. w. Brad- shaw will go to Sharbot' Lake on May 6th for the purpose of trying the case against some parties from that part of the county who are charged with, having a hand in the robbery of a hen house. ------------ E. C. McCullough Appointed. Pembroke, April 27.--B. C. Me- Cullough, Toronto, has been engag- ed to 'serve the members and ad- herents of the continuing Presbyter- ian Church in Pembroke until after June 10th when a call will be made Mr. McCullough is a graduate of Knox College, Toronto. A Native of Telfalt, Ireland, he came to Canada in 1914. He enlisted with a Cana- dian regiment and saw active service | during the Great War. Returning he* resumed his studies in Toronto, and recently graduated from Knox Col- lege. te r-------- Preached Trial Sermon. John VI Mills, son of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Mills, Collingwood street, preached his trial sermon if Sydenham street Methodist church on Sunday evening. Mr. Mills, born and brought up in the church, is a probationer for the Methodist min- istry. During the past year he has been attending Queen's University and doing work om the Verona cir- cuit. | His sermon on Sunday even- sion some very valuable information: It was decided to call for prices for the poles that will be required. R. J. Bushell wrote the comiimis- sion, asking that the matter of a' water service for the Bath Road believed that satisfactory arrange- | ments could be made for the exten- | sion. The matter was referred/ to | Manager Folger. It is understood | that the extension will cover 257 | feet from the city's pipes. John Smith, on behalf of the Buy | In Canada Associatipn, asked association in making an appeal on their stationery to buy Canadian | made goods. The members commission decided to help along the good work. i The chairman, R.|N. F. McFa.% lane presided at the meeting, and J. M. Campbell and H. W. Newman. | --_------ BIG CITIES LINKED BY TWIN RIBBONS OF STEEL. There are two outstanding factors in railroad service that seem to be chiefly responsible for influencing travel to a particular route. These factors are equipment and conveni- ence of schedule. Those whose business takes them frequently on trips between the lead- ing cities of central Canada and cen- tral United States points are highly appreciative of the service rendered by Canadian National Railways, as regards both these important fea- tures. The number who constantly travel Canadian National on their trips to! Ottawa, Montreal, Buffalo, Detroit | and Chicago, furnishes striking testi- mony as to the excellence of the ser- vice established on the great double- track route that connects these im- portant cities. Leaving at convenient times and arriving at hours that suit the busi- ness requirements traveller, the trains that so efficiently link these | business centres have all-steel equip- | ment, consisting of compartment sleeping #1. standard sleepers, ob- servation library cars, and modern daycoaches---and in addition, splen- didly appointed dining cars on which are served meals actually superior to those one expects in the average first-class hotel. Becoming increasingly popular with the travelling public as the quick, comfortable and dependable route, the Canadian National is the logical choice of those whose busi- ness requirements call for the high- est type of travel eficlency and whose standards of convenience and comfort are such as to be satisfled with nothing short of perfection in railroad service. : epee "THE LIFE OF THE SOUL." | Address at the Y.M.C.A. on Sunday bf Dr. Bruce Taylor. The regular Sunday afternoon men's meeting at the Y.M.C.A. was addressed by Principal R. Bruce Taylor, who took as his subject "The Life of the Soul," illustrating it from the parables of Christ. He urged his hearers not to quench fhe | spiritual side of their nature, to | who differed sincerely from their | powers by prayer and earnest study of the scriptures. The address was most helpful and inspiring. i Dr. C. C. Nash acted as chairman, Mr. E. Madrand presided at the plano and there was a vocal solo! by Mr. J. Alexander and a violin selection by Mr. Donald Simpson. Before three hundred spectators, Adam Brown, of Hamilton, who is in his hundredth year, planted a maple tree in Court House Square where sixty-five years ago the late King Edward, assisted by Mr. Brown, went through the same ceremony.
