9t PAGE TWO That while. the present is regarded as the age of the young men, the old men are still doing their part. Sir William Meredith, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Ontario, died teceatly at the ripe old age of 83. He was in the full vigor of his powers up to his death. He is succeeded as chief justice by Sir William Mullock, who is in his $1st year, and is intellectually as virile as 30 years ago. At Of tawa Hon. W. S. Fielding has celebrated his T6th birthday. At the present time that veteran statesman, Sir George Eulas Foster, is touring the West in the interests of the League of Nations. Sit Geo. Foster is also 76, and was a member of Parliament when Rt. Hon. Mackenzie King and Rt. Hon. Arthur Meighen were in short trousâ€" ers. In Toronto, exâ€"Police Magistrate Col. Dennison celebrated reâ€" cently his 85th Pikthday, and is still as full of fire and vigor as when he took part in the repulse of the Fenian Raid invasion. f _ When talking of waste which is almost a crime, remember what happened last week. Approximately 85,000 fans paid more than $1,â€" 200,000 to see the brief fight between Dempsey and Firpo, which lasted less than three minutes. Fully 25,000 more were massel around the Polo grounds, unable to gain admittance.. The battle, in point of both attendance and receipts, ranks second only to the Dempseyâ€" Carpentier spectacle where 93,000 paid $1,600,000 to see the chamâ€" pion win.. Dempsey reaped with his triumph the greatest fortune ofthis career. He will get $150,000 and Firpo $150,000. _ That in 5 years 9,101 persons have been killed and 24,208 injured in‘ automobile accidents, at, railway crossings ; that 47 per cent. te. sulted from autos trying to cross directly in front of an approaching train; that 27 per cent. resulted in autos running into trains; than the railway companies are spending immense sums on track eleva= tion, crossing gates and alarms ; that it would take 600 years to elimâ€" inate the 252,022 grade level crossings at the 1921 rate of 485 separâ€" ated during the year. Already the railroads have spent more than $100,000,000 for track elevation in the state of Illinois alone ; but with 17100 crossingsâ€"still in existence, and because the average cost of eliminating crossings is at least $30,000 each, railroad crossing acciâ€" dents will continue to occur unless the public too does its share toâ€" ward preventing them. f f Dr. Linfield gives some interesting facts concerning the growth of the Jewish population in Canada. In 1901, he pointed out, there were only 16,000.Jews in the Dominion, but in 1911, a span of ten years, the total had moved up to 75,000, while according to the sixth Canadian census made in 1921, the Jewish population of Canada was 126,000, chiefly concentrated in Montreal, Toronto and Winnipeg. They now constitute 14 per cent. of the entire population with only three Canadian cities of 5,000 or more population in which there are no,Jewish residents. In the United States there are 3,600,000 Jews, a greater number than in any other country. Poland has 3,500,000; and Russia 3,130,000. 1 _ _ Motor car production in the United Staates during 1922 totalled 2,027,000 vehicles, according to Alfred Reeves, general manager of the National Automobile Chamber of Commerce. Mr. Reeves places the wholesale value of these cars at $1,558,567,000. Of the total proâ€" duced, 2,284,000 were cars ‘and 240,000 were trucks. The cars are valued at $1,374,487,000 wholesale, while the trucks are valued at $184,080,000 wholesale. t ‘__ In the last fiscal year, Canada imported 1,363,000 pounds of butâ€" ter from the United States, 297,000 pounds from Australia and 2,254,â€" 000 pounds from New Zealand. The total exports of Canadian butâ€" ter were 8,430,000 pounds. f _ The Empress of Canada had a cat on board when she left Britain‘s shores, but when Captain Hailey took "Speed" aboard at Vancouver, it was on the upper deck, and the Canadian cat took this as a sign that he was to be supreme in the upper works of the ship. _ Rover, the cat that was part British and part French, and underâ€" stood the continental parley better than the roar of the lion, strutted forward to meet "Speed" when he docked here, but the effect was electrical. _( _ hisy. $ ucao s : _ @"Speed" arched his back, negotiated a Sharky swing, and a Corbett hook, and finally made a roller coaster out of Frenchy. as the latter sought refuge in the engine room. Since that melee, ®peed has moved unchallenged on the cabin decks. __ This does not mean that "Speed" does not go below, By instincet this eat knows when the Chinese crew is celebrating and frying grassâ€" ggppflfi':‘\The big cat is fond of this particular dish and never fails #6 share it when the special gong rings. Captain Haily tells a good story about "Speed." Several promâ€" inent Chinese were visiting the master of the ship in his cabin in Shanghai, and "Speed" was occupying a cushioned chair near the Gaptain‘s elbow. One of the visitors had the regulation Imperial fingernails, and stretched the long and tapering horns out on tho table at times to emphasize his remarks.. § 'W"'C;i)t'z;.fivi-lailey noticed the cat watching the long nails, and every time the Cathyan fingers moved out on the table, "Speed" stretched his beautifully curved nails out in imitation of the visitors. _ In a storm, "Speed" will seek the rigging of the ship and i high falsetto do a nocturnal watch that makes the blood gf atl;le gaz on the bridge run cold. > _ $ * On the whole Captain Hailey says "Speed" is the most enter= taining cat he ever owned, and the Chinese say he is a good Joss, and Egp_! llé(:i lgck a_Way! ism retaen 0.A rervanike Bm ce ie e 20 00 rme ie m ue goe ca o ons Lo orv ds Sregrnier Skipper's Cat Plenty jos; APTAIN A. J. HAILEY, R.N.R., master of the Empress of Canâ€" ada, and his favorite cat, "Speed." ‘"Speed" has first say on the big ship. _This cat, according to Captain Hailey, does everything including T hings To Remember Isn‘t it strange that Princes and Kings And clowns that caper in sawdust rings, And common folks like you and me, Are Builders for Eternity? To each is given a bag of tools, A shapeless mass and a book of rules; And each must make, ere life is flown, A stumbling block or a stepping stone. e d k. _6 I â€"Selected. And then he says:=As for your proâ€" vision, I cannot guarantee you anyâ€" thing.‘ Now, we know quite well about the trouble of obtaining funds for misâ€" sions and clergy, and so forth, and we know how in the present day such is the slackness in the Lord‘s. work that we become reduced to what we call paid workers. It is not the method of Jesusâ€"not a bit,. Yet I know there is a certain kind of man who depends upâ€" on God for his daily provision, and it never fails. It is the Apostolic type. It is rare. The Lord only found sevenâ€" ty, but they were of the type that lovâ€" ed Him sufficiently to believe that God would provide. I know all the dificulâ€" ties. But I know we want more aposâ€" tles who will go forth undertaking this gloriuos work withmout purse or script or shoes. Another point was that the aim of the apostle wherever he went was to bring peace. He was to be walking blessing. _ "Feace, be to this. house." There are certain peopleâ€"one can reâ€" call them and thank God for thein nowâ€"who â€"whatever house. they enter always bring peace. I do not know why it is, but certain men and women have only to cross the threshold and the house is quict. It is the peace of God percolating through them. _ You must have, it directly from the Lord to be able to bestow it on a house. Fulfill your ministry. Your ministry may be to suffer. I don‘t know. what it is, but I am bold to say that unless you fulfill it you can never know the meaning of true joy.â€"By Hugh B. Chapman, chaplain of the Royal Chapel of the Savoy. Beloved, I urge you, as St. Paul wrote to Timothy, to make full proof of your ministry,. ‘"Do the work of an evangelist." It is the most delightful work on earth. It does not mean that we need become ministers or anything of that kind at all._ It doesn‘t mean being fussy, or eternally talking. _ It does mean a desire to spread the atâ€" mosphere of Christ. It is unmistakâ€" able. _ Iknow some people whose very presence preaches the Gospet, and whenever I meet them I fel as if I had been listening to a sermon. "Salute no man by the way" What I think it means is this: Our time is immensely precious.â€" The temptation of religious people is to waste time in gossip and unnecessary talk, so that gradually they cease to be effective and forget their mission. Another point is this:>"Go your ways I send you forth as lambs among wolâ€" ves." Well, the wolves are yelping all around us just now! And Christians are sent among them as lambs. We know what the wolves do to the lambs! Yet that is our missionâ€"and Wwhat a splenâ€" did mission! We are to go out into the world following the Lamb of God, with apparently the meekness of the lamb. : I want to make this point to start with. They were sent forth, everyone of them, to "Every city and place, whither He Himself would come." I want you to realize that no apostle is anything but a forerunner of Jesus; he cannot do the work himself, he only goes to the city to get it ready for the coming of Jesus. I think the reason why soâ€"many people tire of their minâ€" istry is that they make the mistakeâ€" a pardonable one, but resulting in a great deal of painâ€"of regarding themâ€" selves as the goal of that ministry, they are not. And those who are sent go voluntarily, yet knowing they must go, for their love is such that it is a force far more compelling thain having to go to the city for their daily bread: they go to get the city, the home, the indivâ€" idual ready for the advent of Christ who alone can save. _ We say we belong to the Apostolic Church. That does not mean anyâ€" thing unless we are apostolic.. It does not mean that only ‘twelve people called apostles. It is an Apostoli¢ Church, or else it is but a dead Church. (It is a missionary Church, or it is only a mummy church. Unless we are men and women who are sent forth our descipleship must become meaningâ€" less, and the unseen something that doesn‘t count in our daily affairs. I believe that the love of work and our desire to have something to do is inherent in all men and women who are not utterly degraded. We desire to be employed, and when any. person who has known what work is out of work I think it is one of the severest tests anyone can go. through. I believe the reason (why so few Christians have real yjoy, and why the Church. becomes so _ meaningless / to many, is that they. never realizeâ€"or if they ever did, they had forgotten that to be a disciple means to be emâ€" ployed in Christ‘s service, and that the word Apostle means sent people. I doubt whether any man or woman can be happy unless her or she feels sent. We began to feel it when we were children. . When we were sent to the post for mother we thought it a tremendous honor to be entrusted with a letter, and it was the same when we were sent on any little service for someone we loved.. Then‘ later there came to us the immense joy of feelâ€" ing that we were wanted by someone, that they could not get on without us, that they required our service. 5 So I doubt‘ whether we have â€"beâ€"| gun to be Christians, certainly we have) not got far, unless we realize discipleâ€" ship is a mission. If not, something is wrong. I believe when one looks back on one‘s lifeâ€"the greatest joy of all is that one has been employed, by Jesus, one has been wanted by Je-l sus.
