Revolutions _, both England a a TAL Ab he Ah 3 . NIL HS fi SRE E FE IR A NRA. € Amin Mob mae Lar we ---- _-- T . Four Great By Joseph Denny Two of these revolutions had per- cussions about 150 years ago when and France passed through a tremendous upheaval. The one in France was the cause of much bloodshed and striff} but the one in England emerged peacefully and laid the foundations for national prosperity and success for the next century. Why should England emerge so peacefully through this ordeal and why should France, which passed through the same predicament have to suffer so severely? It was all owing to the in- fluence of one man--John Wesley, who taught that material things in life do not count unless they are based on a moral and spiritual foundation. If it is poorly laid then the structure that is reared upon it can only be flimsy at its best. The subsequent history of these two nations has proved -the truth of this statement. For the next century Britain advanced by leaps and bounds. Even though she had lost the most precious jewel in her American Colonies in 1776, and had to face the world on land and sea. She emerged victorious first on sea, at Trafalgar, and then on land, at Waterloo, in 1815. France also progressed tremendous- ly 'during the Nineteenth Century but she never sccured the spiritual back- ground that Britain had achieved; and a nation like an individual that has a foundation of material prosperity only is sure to meet defeat unless she has-a spiritual background in which she can find refuge. But even a nation that has a spirit- ual foundation is apt to forget the source of its strength; and in that Wellington _ is case disaster is bound to ensue.

Then he recounted that the Fergus News- Record had reported just before this latest winter blast, that groundhogs, wild ducks, crows and phoebes were strutting their stuff. The Arnprior Chronicle told, not only of butterflies, but that a water snake was sighted on the edge of the Madawaska River. The Dundalk Herald office was dis- playing a cache of live grasshoppers in a bottle and telling of bees buzzing around the eaves of a church at Pro- ton Station.
