Cook in Canadian Courier a ~The first. to enter was an old man. }He was white and bent, but some- thing in the way he clutched his um- brella suggested stubborn vigour still burning in him. He appeared at the corner of King and Simcoe Streets. He looked up at the grimy turrets of new St, Andrew's with a faded eye. He climbed the ating SeeeHiently and rs of the church, ' ; ~The second was an old woman, well- dressed, with a ruddy face, and large Bible under one arm, -- ' The third was an Governor of Ontario. The fourth was a preacher with a jong neck and sallow complexion. He. ex-Lieutenant }looked as though he had just bolted a few heavy works on theology and |was hurrying to the next intellectual feast. ee ' The fifth was a large round preach- rer, bearded and of dignified mien. Then they began to come in dribbles and small crowds and I could take no ails. Finally. I, too d passed over the fibre-matting which the heathen make vestibules, 'passed the erimson colored doors that swing at the ends of the aisles, and breathed once more the atmosphere of old carpets and last Sunday's per- fumes. In short, I attended the first the Presbyterian Anti- Church Union Congress.. There, in the soft light of the church, stood the little company of |militant Scotch Presbyterians of Can- ada, There in the preaching box was a-large scholarly man in the robes of the Ministry, uttering rolling sentence broken here and there by flashes of irony, epi- grammatic argument against Church Union and Church Unionists. The meeting was quiet. There was no passionate outbursts. In the faces of a few of the men was that quiet, calm-eyed defiance that makes even the unholy One afraid of the Scotch. And then we sang. First the dis- tant playing of the choir organ, then a sort of heaye of sound as the great organ launched the tune. The old man next me faltered and then pick- ed up a tune of (hid own--it must have been his own. 'Then the full body of sound from the assembled throats caught up to the organ and the two swept on together through the fam- iliar stanzas of the hymn, There was no mistaking that kind of singing. Methodists would have sung it like a love song. Anglicans would have romped it; Congregationalists would have done it any number of ways except the Scottish Presbyterian way. For they made of it, not a tune, but a picture of that inextinguishable something called Scotch Presbyterian- ism. It had the rythm of slow seas sweeping heavily up out of the ocean to be dashed against some far-off stubborn coast, It was sonorous as a gale snoring in the undergrowth of the north woods. Listening to that hymn one might have been led into thinking ; this is the tune of Scotch Presbyterianism. It is.a thing which ecerrot be put in words and which cannot be wiped by adversities or persecutions or General Assemblies. felt that: it was heroic, significant of courage, tenacity and serence deter- mination-- But, looking 'round there was not to be seen in ali that gathering, 4 young man. It was indeed a meeting of the presbyters, the elderly men, fired by the. love of the Church that has been more to Scotland than kings or parliaments, moved by their af- fection for what was old and testel as against what was new and un- tested, and pricked by natural and almost praiseworthy sense of resent- ment against the younger churches-- alists--whose. foundation ean NOT be traced back to the third or fourth chapters of Exodus, and who, by -one step are to be admitted to full purity with this old Calvinistic body. It was a magnificent gathering of a sort of religious 'Tories. These men, one could imagine, felt themselves /the custodians in Canada of the great Protestant religious tradition, the tradition of Presbyterianism which everywhere in Europe fought Episcopacy. Theirs is tradition that gave France the National Protestant Church and lent strergth to the Huguenots in the days of oppression, Theirs is the same tradition the Netherlands took :rom Frence; that furnished half the im- inspiration -of the Welsh Calvinistic Methodists; and was to Scotland what Magna Charta was to the English. what the Declaration of Independen 2 was to the Americans, and in some measure, what the breaking up of the Family Compact and its associations was to Canada After all, traditious are worth something, and it was be- cause George Brown was 4 Presbyter- ian that he fought against church es- tablishment in Canada, and won, Leok ing at this gathering of Scotch-Can- adian Presbyterians, therefore, one felt the heroism of their position. But seeing how few young men were in of the thing. To resist Church Union not on doctrinal grounds, and not on any 1eally serious point with regard to church government, such a move- 'ment must at.least have Youth as it- And it hasn't youth. I met one evening last week, one of the noblest of these anti-unionists and the talked to me freely and boldly what he believed and was unconcerned who denied it. I quote him, not to cast doubt on ths rightness of his argument, but merely to report one side of the case. before the other. There is no finer type of man to be found than this Scotch-Canadian sort, healthy body with healthy brain so fine in these neurotic times. The very stubbornness with which he held his views was magnificent. - "Speeches !? he exclaimed. "Did ye bles and hair-slitting 'was it? Well-- ye are right. There's mothing that gationalist believes, that I can't stom- ach very well m'self, I don't quarrel 'A pause. ae ; "And I don't dispute very much about the way of running the church ag its done decently and in order I can abide whatever the United Church of Canada has cooked up----" Another pause. oe : belong abandon it.

But they don't even know the meaning of Presbyter and they've no more interest in the people of Scotland than I have in the people of Siam. "het them have their United Church They're good people- I wish them no ill" Two days later I met the other side of the case, a young clergyman six years out of Knox College. He one of that age and that type I had not seen at the meetings of the anti- unionists, : : "IT believe in efficiency,' he said, crisply, "I do not undervalue trad- itions. But I accept the view of those who believe we have reached tke time when we must drop the par- ticular details of our respective tra- ditions, and combine the best in all of them. The work before the church es of this country in the next decade 8, as everybody knows, colossal. The Presbyterian church in Scotland made a great name for itself by fight- ing for the freedom of the common worshipper The Methodist Church and the Congregational churches haye their problems and their victories. Bat the point is this; they have fin- ished their particular work, so far at least as Canada is concerned. The vigilance of the Presbyterian Church is no longer required to protect Cur spiritual independence ag it was in Scotland. The evangelism of the Methodist Chuich has evangelized th2 other churches--we accept their views on personal religion. The Congrega- tional Church has emphasized the nec- essity of democracy in religious or- ganization. The particular needs which gave. these churches their raison d'etre, no longer exist in Caré ada, On the other hand, tha~gyils of "duplication amonz <enhem ork ob- So: to everyyaqé, If we are to re- gard _ths-future rather than the past --and that, I think, is our *duty-- then we must have the Union," Needless to say, this young preach- er is a student of higher criticism and sociology. He has views on Canadiana politiés and on most of the great questions that face this country. One could, feel that though he might not be a great respector of traditions, he was at least a great student of the future and its needs, And one who is likely- to be a service to this country." "Are you Scotch?" I asked. "No," he retorted, "Canadian." But this much I knew; his father and his mother, and his grandparents before that again came from near Peter Head. He carried no hyphens, however honorable. One other man should be quoted in this connection, He was a return- ed soldier, one who, this day, had been wounded in Flanders, and had |limped down to St. Andrew's from \the Convalescent Hospital in-old Knox College. He had been sitting for some time at' the back of..the church. where the meetings were held, and { noted him for a Scotch-Canadian Leaving the meeting, we had this conversation ; "Are you for it or against it?" asked. "I'm against the anti's, "And your reasons ?'" 'Too many to tell." " oe the. war anything to do with it" "It has everything to do with it.' We 'boarded a'street car and he unfolded his point of view. "I used to be a theological student at Knox," the said, 'but I enlisted when the war started--third battalion War's changed' me and changed ev- erything in. the world for me, and I think it's changed religion.

The foregoing is not. in- tended for an opinion, but as an im- pression, or collection of impressions of the two sides of a rather important cause. In 1875 a number of churches resisted the Presbyterian union that was then proposed. But of all those who resisted only one to-day remains; St. Andrew's, of Montreal. The same may happen in the case of the anti- unionists of to-day, though one could |wish such rare stubborness and de- termination, a better end.
