that it is a proper View, and again commend it to the attention of church officia’s. That the erection of places for the worship of God should be undertaken under the most‘ impressive cenemon'ies of the minis- trrs of God seems only a fitting th'ng. That the Masons or any 0th? or similar organization should usurp that function appears as inapprop- riafe as that the Frrmers’ Institute shouid lay the corner stone of a Iasonicteniple. Itisnotneceseamy era. In that. historical fact only the remark had its basis. As for the view that churches should- lay their corner stones under their, own auspices and ritual, we maintain Christian order should be no afl'ront to a society, one of whose proud-est claims ‘is an origin in antiquity long before the beginning of the Christian tion on constructlon of the article. It, was nothing more or less than a' protest against corner stones of, Chrizq tian Chuzcizos being laid under Anny but Christian church auspices. The a-SSvrtion that the Masons are 1261: a" Mr. D. R. Anderson, according to his question elsewhere in this issue, put a sinister construction up0n our re- mark in last issue about Masons lay- ing church corner stones. That is entirely unnecessary ; for there was nothing sinister in either the inten- For instances of this sort, it is like- ly that Chairman Storer must share the blame with Inspector (:‘rrowden, for while the latter was appointed to take the levels, the former was often actively associated with him. At all events. whoever is to blame, deserves severe censure _from the council. Not long ago Acting Commissionâ€" er P. O’Neil was instructed to plasâ€" ter up the outer faces of the Walks wherever necessary. The acting commissioner seems to be of the opinion that it is necessary no place. At least he has done so in almost no place. It would seem that for' both appearance and protection the walks should he plastered. They are put down to last a long time. and nothing that will help them to re- sist the water and atmosphere, should"; be left undone. Of courSe it may be that with the history of some form- er walks in mind, the overseer is sagaciously waiting to see if the duration of these warrants any final touches. It is, moreover, regrettable that in so many instances no grade at all has been maintained in the walk, but it has been raised and lowered throughout, its course to suit the adâ€" jacent property. This is noticeable adjacent to the property of wealthy people. and all the more so because great hardship has been entailed on people not so well off on the plea. of maintaining the grade. There‘are instances of walks mined in appear- anCe by sudden dips to meet the level of Some man's driveway or'p'i'i- vate walk that has been laid too low.

There are. how ever, features of those walks that are Certainly not first-class, and that should engage the attention of the authorities, if for no other purpose than to prevent their recurrence in the stretches yet to be built. A very serious defect in nearly every strip laid by Contractor Mil- ler under Mr. Growden’s inspection, the crooked edges by which the is walks are marred. The retaining planks put down While the walk was being built have been in every in- stance insufficiently staked, with re- sulting walks whose edges look as if they had been laid out with a cork- screw rather than a square. That is a defect that very seriously im- pairs the valnc of the walks and ren- ders them a lasting blot upon the beauty of the town. Thereis no escape for inspector Growden from the blame for this defect. If he had been true to his duty to the town, it would not have occurred. ‘ Klinhe;1 does not intend to prevent its reâ€"l currence in the walks yet to be laidl In the main, it is nounce judgment on walks that ‘have her ;i’ubnm Every 111m?

They were to follow the ark ; f-‘Yet” said Joshua “there shall be a space between you [and it, about two tkousand cubits ‘by measure ; come not near unto it, that ye may know the way by which ye must go, for ye haVe not passed this -way heretofore." Without ex- plaining this somewhat. obscure pas- sage, the preacher made it the oc- casion of a (lisCo-urse on the blessings to be found in the new experiences of life. The Israelites had not passed that way heretofore. They shrank from the untried paths. but the ark of God went before them. So, it was declared, God goes before the Christian in the new experiences both of active life and the final hour. Men could not know their own natures and capabilities except as these were nevealed to them under the varying circumstances of life. As they go from riches to poverty, health to sickness, popularity to friendless-ness. 1 or the reverse of these, they will, if following the divine leading, have‘ new revelations of their own natures. When death’s Jordan is reached men should step into it following the ark of God’s guidance. and “I must work the works of Him that sent me." Upon these passag- es were basud some very wholesome, if..famil«iar, remarks. The fraternal and. benevolent characteristics of the order attending were heartily com- mended. After the sermon Mrs. (Dr) Walters sang a solo.in good voice. -â€"â€"The Ancient Order of United Workmen attended divine service at St. Paul’s on Sunday evening. The congregation was unusually large.

" The text revealed two phases of religion : phalanthrophy, the service of God to our fellow man, and purity, the culture of a man’s own soul. The high obligation of men to meet the claims of both were forcefully and eloquently set forth.
