Brown Deal With Timely Subjects on Sunday, In speaking of Canada in St George's Cathedral on Sunday morn- ing the Dean of Ontario referred to on the Dominion and of the love her people have for our great and titul country, Archdeacon Scott voiced the feeling of Canadians is poem "O Canada, my Country my Love." Still from coast to t there was a feeling that all was well with the country. "We have through a great political cri- ', said the dean. "I saw some- it was the greatest crisis in of the Dominion, How- be and without taking the question, it does us that our need is a ial jeadership. The hu- 'demands leaders and am- An ambassador is one express the will of the peo- #8 leader is one who will help m that will. It had been sald, i continued, that democracy not supply leaders. He referred hn Hampden, to Gladstone ang Abraham Lincoln, all outstanding ers of democracy. But the people ve to choose the leader and as the standards of the people are so will be the leader they choose. That is the hope of democracy. ~ "And what has the churgh to do 'with this?" he asked. "It if"said tig, church is the school of the nation. Fithe man who stands outside the C®hurch, who spends his Sundays on he golf links is ready to criticise the church for not setting higher ideals 'before the young people for country 80 that tkey will demand the best from their leaders. If we deserve that criticism we should profit by it. But if the cynic who is so ready to fay the blame on the ¢hurch would - come and take his coat off and work 'among the young people and help to _#6t the higher standard he wouldi be ® of more use. It the individual stan- dard is high dnd demands honor and vision of a greater Canada, wa will 'have leaders with these qualities who will believe that God is strong and His purpose eternal. Dean Cralg {is holding what he calls "Upder the Dome" services in cathedral on Sunday evening uring the summer. On Sunday he spoke of the influence of Christ. The anthem was "Kipling's Recessional in which the bass solo was admirab- i. Jy taken by Mr. C. B. 8. Harvey. "National Greatness" "National Greatness," was the . title of the sermon bf Rev. OA Brown, at-the- ice. mers and Sydenham Street jad eon tions in Syden a ig med morning. The taken from Psalm 144. 15. r. Brown emphasized the fact "have God as the Lord of a necessitates loyalty to His , not to seek material bene- to express His nature to the orld. There are two ideals--pagan d Christian. Paganism is a mater- {al ideal based on selfishness achiev- ed through force and cunning. The 'Christian ideal is democracy in Its _ real meaning. It recognizes the sac- edness of the individual and claims freedom to live his highest Mfe. fréedom can only be gained by|. bjection of life to a higher auth- y rity, namely the sovereignty of puth, justice and love. Democracy is disciplining of individual to .co- te in an 'effort of the highest d. The common good requires the tual sympathy and understanding each by every other. This de- ds faith in men, the authority of truth and right, and the obliga- tion of service, The 8, Droashor sald THEY'RE OFF ON A 660-MILE RACE TO BERMUDA ! Thirty-four yachis started from New London, Conn., on a 660-mile race to Bermuda. Here are two with filled sails, a fair breeze and a white curl 'neath their bows just getting under way. that one must put emphasis on du- ties and not on rights. Mr. Brown .showed that there could be a practical application of these ideals to Canadians. Canada in its variety of life, physically, clima- tically, nationally and all its inter- ests, offers a challenge to the best that is in Canadians; a challenge to put 'the leaven of Christ's spirit into all phases of life, a task for the highest kind of statesmanship. Build ing a nation, like building a person- ality, is done through loyalty to universal ideals, expressed in the de- velopment of given resources. There are three simple things tha | all can do; Face the result of follow- ing our present political condition; think, talk, act, in faith in the high est principles and finest conduct; do not grow weary in believing in and working for what should be.

The statement that McKelvey & Birch Ltd, had bought what is known as the John Litton property on Rideau street was a little pre- mature, for as yet no wuctual deal has been consummated. If is true that the Kingston firm has an option on the building but it depends to a considerable extent on the action of the city council as to whether it will be purchased. Mr. C. A. Macpherson, president of Mec- Kelvey & Birch, says however, that he does not anticipate any great obstacles in this direction for so far the city has shown itself very favor- ably disposed toward the sale. The building {if purchased will need alterations before it can be used .as a factory for fank construc- tion and until an actual sale is made no definite date can be set when It will be occupied. The McKelvey & Birch firm start- ed in the tahk making business about two years ago in the back of their premises on Brock street. The business soon outgrew these quarters and was removed to a building next to Vanluven's Garage. It has con- tinued to expand aad the firm is again faced with the problem of finding adequate quarters. At ome time it was proposed that an addi- tion should be built to the Brock street property but this idea has been abandoned. If suitable quarters cannot be secured in the city, it will be necassary for the firm to move this part of their business to another city. In any event, whether the factory on Rideau street is purchased or whether the tank business is moved to another city the business on Brock street will remain in its pres- ent quarters. w-- BOY WONDER OF POLITICS.
