County Treasurer and Mrs. Norman Robertson, of Walkerton, celebrated their solden wedding last week. Fred Nielhausen, of Hanover, had a Ford car run over his hip without sustaining any broken .pones. 2 The Baby Show will again be held on Labor Day at the C. N. E. Last vear there were over 600 entries. R. B. Muir, of Walkerton, found his stolen car in a ditch near Chesley, but also found that about $100 worth of garments had been removed. on the coupons amounting to $937 on bonds owned by himselfâ€"and children, the court decided that the children‘s bonds were not assessable as part of Mr. Cooper‘s income, but the assessor appealed. ; The Government and the goat breeders of Canada are putting on an exhibit of milch goats at the C. N. E. this year. Chesley friends presented â€" Mrs. Brenan, proprietress of the McDonald House, with a silver tea service on her retirement last week. When you‘re down and out and hopeâ€" less, and a demon at your side Whispers, "What‘s the use of trying? chuck it up and let things slide," Just sit down and think of England: she whose cradle was a grave, She who had to win to freedom from the bondage of a slave. Tell yourself her tale of glory, then let England‘s dead reply To the question of your spirit, "Who is England if not I?" England, once the least of nations, where the Roman Eagle flew, Where the sons of Thor came burning, where the mighty Norman. slew, See how now, supreme in splendor leading all the world‘s advance First to crush the Prussian serpent, first to save the soul of France, Standing like a granite . lighthouse where the fiercest waves are hurled, In herself secure and giving light to all the trembling world. What is England‘s glorious story but the story one by one Of her children sternly minded that their duty should be done? Each for ever holding firmly to the simple rules of right, Each with dauntless heart believing wrong can never win a fight, These were England, and they fashionâ€" ed all the grandeur that we see, And their blood that won the triumph flows for God in you and me. (Harold Begbie, in the Children‘s Newspaper). â€" A baby clinic conducted by the Onâ€" tario Government will be one of the features in the Government Building at the C. N. E. this year. When A. J. Cooper, of Goderich, claimed exemption from income tax The world‘s largest collection of war photographs from the Canadian Official Records will be shown at the C. N. E. this year. There will be six days of motor boat racing at the C. N. E. this year, startâ€" ing Thursday, Sept. 1. NEWS FLASHED FROM cession was o.ne of the features of Goderich Old Home Week, the town newspapers taking part in the parade. "For I dipped into the future, fas as human eye could see, Saw the vision of the world, and all the wonder that would be, Saw heavens filled with commerce, argosies of magic sails, Pilots of the purple twilight, dropping down with costly bales; Heard the heavens filled with shoutâ€" ing, and there rained a ghastly dew C & From the nations‘ airy navies, grapâ€" pling in the central blue; Far along the worldâ€"wide whisper of the southâ€"wide rushing warm, With the standards of the people plunging through the storm, Till the drums throbbed no longer, and the battle flags were furled In the Parliament of Man, the Fedâ€" eration of the World." In this next great poem lies the thoughts of a man who must have had a great vision of what we are pleased to call the "League of /Nations," in which Tennyson believed because God was real to him and he must have felt inspired to write the following words in a prophetic nature, seeing God‘s great plan for righteousness to be established in this old sin, warâ€" tired world. Having taken up to reâ€"read one book, a gem among many, I venture to quote a few of his poems which show that wonderful character in his life, "a Christian." Most poets are expected or looked upon to be decidâ€" edly one thing or the other, yes! too well often has beenthe case with these great men. But we can thank God He raised up some to be men guided by His Spirit. So many that space will not permit to name. But in Tennyâ€" son‘s words there always is to me a great feeling that he was a servant in the hands of his God and Creator. I can only beg of young people to read some of these great men‘s works, many a lesson, true as they are to life, there is a sound sense of underâ€" standing. Catch its philosophy! A calithumpian and trades‘ proâ€" TENNYSON â€" HIS POEMS "Sowed it far and wide, By every town and tower, Till all the people cried, ‘Splendid is the flower.‘ ‘"Read my little fable, He who runs may read; . Most can grow the flowers now For all have got the seed." ‘"To and fro they went, Through my garden bower, And muttering discontent, "Then it grew so tall, It wore a crown of light, But thieves from o‘er the wall Stole the seed at night. "Once in a golden hour, I cast to earth a seed, Up there came a flower, The people said, ‘A weed.‘ WHO IS ENGLAND? Cursed me and my flower ONTARIO‘S SCREEN There were 1,152,060 people at the Canadian _National Exhibition last year. One of the largest concrete culverts on the Ontario Provincial Highway from Ottawa to Pembroke, was built by Mr. Fred Johnson, of Galetta, on the 6th line, Huntley, at Mr. Andréew Armstrong‘s. It is 55 feet 6 inches wide, 10 feet across and 7 feet high, with_a 10 foot water outlet. It took seven hundred and thirty bags of cement and 90 lcads of sand and gravel to build it, and â€"it will take nine feet more of filling on top as yet to make it complete. TIMES AND GUIDE, WESTON _ "Tickets!"â€"said‘ the conductor as he stood in front of a passenger the other day on an estbound train. ‘The pasâ€" senger began fumbling nervousiy through his pockets and finally turnâ€" ing them inside out. ‘"Where is your ticket?" asked the conductor, "you can‘t have lost it‘ Can‘t have.lost it!"" repeated the nervous one sarcasâ€" fically. ‘ "My friendâ€"I Jlost a big drum on the 12th of July once." "Indeed!" said the chagrined manu facturer.. ‘"What is your line ?" "Gunpowder," was the reply. "Fine piece of work, isn‘t it?" he said, when they were looking at a very ingenious machine. "Yes,"‘ â€"said the visitor, ‘"but you cannot hold a candle to the goods we are turning out." Dick‘s mother answered the doorâ€" bell just in time to see little Harry fall down the front steps. "Oh," said she, "how did you come to fall?" "I didn‘t come toâ€"fall," said Harry, "I came to play ball with Dick." The time had come to dole out the day‘s rations, and in an Irish regiâ€" ment the quartermaster and his asâ€" sistant had been portioning them out in preparation for distribution. The assistant turned to the quarâ€" termaster and, with a twinkle in his eye, said: "Av ye plaze, sorr, there‘s a loaf short. Who‘ll I give it to?" A pompous manufacturer of maâ€" chinery was showing a stranger over his factory. Everyone knows the futility of good resolutions that are to come into efâ€" fect at some future dateâ€"next month In the experience of every soul there are days when the vision _ is dim; when the higher motives, that impel the soul onward and upward in its better moments, fail to stimulate; when "the blessed habit of intensity‘" ceases for the time to operate. And these are the soul‘s times of extreme peril, when it is so fatally easy to make out of those enervating, comâ€" prising, anaemic moments is to reâ€" mind oneself of the supreme imporâ€" tance of "now." In the light of eterâ€" nity I shall see that this dull comâ€" monâ€"place, unheroic moment is preâ€" senting me with the supreme decision of my life. 4 "Keep it yourself, Mike," replied the quartermaster. or _ next week. In all our dealings with God it must be always "now." With the Most High there is no past and no future; God‘s life is one changeless eternal Now. The door through which we _ enter into that timeless region wherein the Eternal dwells is the door of the present moâ€" ment, now. â€" A revered teacher of the Church has said, "one little English word has been the strength and inspiration of my soul for the last 40 years, and that word is the little word ‘now‘.‘" His meaning is obvious. If in the moment of temptation and perplexity the soul can turn to God and say "now, Lord, help me now," he will always find that his moment of extremity is emâ€" phatically and overwhelmingly _ the moment of God‘s opportunity. We may with reverence apply the idea of intensity to the life of Alâ€" mighty God_â€" himself. Von â€" Hugel speaks of ‘"the overwhelming aliveâ€" ness of God." He lives intensely: He thinks intensely: He loves intensely. We human beings tend to become meâ€" chanical in all actions frequently: perâ€" formed. We do things from force of habit; this is inevitable. Many of our hourly and daily actions we perform without consciously directing the atâ€" tention to them at all. We do them from force of habit; that is, their perâ€" formance is regulated by the action of the subconscious mind. But â€"God most High has no subâ€" conscious mind. God is Light through and through, and in Him is no darkness at all. God does nothing from force of habit. God holds me now in life, God gives me breath this moment, and that not because He has done it for so many years with such unfailing regularity that it has beâ€" come a habit with Him, but because He directs deliberately directs His attention to me, and with all the inâ€" tensity of His will wills me now into being. And what is true of my life is true of every other life.. God is intensely interested in that other life also. It should therefore be impossâ€" ible for me to treat my fellowman with indifference, or to pray for him mechanically. : in the religious sphere only is this point emphasized. Even the Londonâ€" er in the Tube is confronted daily not only with the imperious command to "get it at Harrods‘," but also with the other command equally emphatic to "do it now." This "do it now" is the golden text of the American gosâ€" pel of hustle. But there are occasions when some of the principles of the business world may with advantage be applied in the spiritual sphere. This is inculcated again and again in the Gospels themâ€" selves. It is with the habit of intensity, as it concerns man‘s immediate dealings with God, that this short paper would deal. For without this habit prayer becomes â€" mechanical, _ worship beâ€" comes formal, meditation becomes inâ€" tolerably dull, and the whole spiritâ€" ual life is lived at halfâ€"pressure. Needful is the realization of the imâ€" portance of the present moment. Not And the habit of slackness can only be driven out by the expulsive power of the opposite habit, that of intensiâ€" ty. We are familiar enough with the opposite habit, the habit of slackness. And whether seen in the priest sayâ€" ing his prayers or in the plumber reâ€" pairing the bath, it is equally unpleasâ€" ing. Nobody defends this habit, noâ€" body would dream of defending the habit of nagging a husband, or of spitting in a tram car. But it comes in unasked and unwelcomed, comes in like a broker‘s man and takes posâ€" session of the house and all its furniâ€" ture, that is, takes possession of the whole personâ€"body, mind and spirit. The phrase is Charles Kingsley‘s. "I owe," he says, "more than I can say to the fact that early in life I formed the blessed habit of intersiâ€" ty." â€" "BLESSED HABIT OF INTENSITY" DATED at Toronto this 15th day of July, A.D,. 1921.
