It is unofficial, and to retain its present universal recognition it must remain unofficial.. It is only The Government of Canada apâ€" propriates the money now, which these organizations administer. _ It is perhaps incorrect to use the word "similat", for, while there are many organizations large and small doing magnificent and desâ€" perately needed work in the relief of war‘s miseries, there is none quite similar to the Red Cross. The uniqueness of the Red Cross is not always quite understood.

As every one knows, the Canaâ€" dian Red Cross is making a drive to raise $10,000,000 to finance this warâ€"time work. We must "go over the top" on this campaign. The sacrifice of each individual is very small when compared to the good that will result from these contriâ€" butions. By this time perhaps most of you have contributed, but if 't‘h‘i.s is not the case. do not delay. From our limited knowledge of the Red Cross, it would appear that this great organization gu and is accomfllshing the very thing that our allied nations are fighting for toâ€"day. By this we mean it)is a worldâ€"wide organizatio dor#ed by 65 nations. It knows no bound of sex, race, religion or colour and is organized ‘to do humanitarian work in the most efficient manner. The Red Cross is always at peace, as indicated by the fact that it maintains communications | a n d transportation between belligerent countries, thus providing a medium through which prisoners of war can be reached and supplied with food and comforts. Hundreds of Canadians who were prisoners of war during the Great War claim they owe their lives to the constant supply of food, clothing and other comforts _ which _ they _ recsived through the Canadian Red Cross Society.

At present a special opportunity for ‘the attendance of church, comâ€" | munion services and a general selfâ€" |examination.

Westminster United ’ Selections from the Bible include the following from I Corinthians 3: 18, 19 (to peried): "Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise. For the wisdom &( dt{}ia world is foolishness with od. The Golden Text is, "It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing." (John 6: 63), "Matter" is the subject of the Lessonâ€"Sermon which will be read in all Churches of Christ, Scientist, throughout the world, including Third Church of Christ, Scientist, 70 Kigh Park Ave., at 11.00 a.m. and 7.30â€" p.m. and broadcast over Station CFRB at 11 a.m. on Sunâ€" day, March 21st, 1943. Christian Science |_CHURCHES | The e\‘enlng germon was on the subject, "An Absolute Certainty". The text was taken from Ps. 56: 9. The preacher showed how the psrlmist came to discover that God not only cared for the world at large but that He cared for him personally. "This I know that God is for me" and that if we are posâ€" sessed of this bracing faith we too may have the same assurance, streams of the tainted streams of human experience, can cast the contents of His cruise into the poisoned waters and sweeten their flow, and He is the Christ, the Saviour of the world and out Saviour. We do not know by what process of alchemy Elisha cleansed the tainted stream. He said, "Bring me |a new cruise and put salt therein and he went forth unto the spring |of the waters and cast the salt therein and said, ‘Thus saith the Lord, I have healed these waters‘." Drawing an illustration from what hapiem every day in nature, Dr. Meek showed how the poluted rivers running into the oceans which are salt, are]purified, sweetâ€" ened and healed. The gun in turn gathers the moisture into the skies and the clouds distill it on the upland hills and the springs and valleys welcome it as it again trickles down the slopes and once more clear as cryStal and sparkling pure it goes on its way to satisfy, refresh, and cleansed, and so on the process of tainting and purifyâ€" ing everlastingly continues. The waters can only be cleansed by addition, not subtraction. How ‘many prophets have failed to cleanse the fountains of a city‘s ‘Iife. The! have attacked, conâ€" demned, denounced, rebuked, exâ€" posed and renounced but they did not heal. You cannot cure a patient by enlarging in grim detail the: loathsomeness of his disease. He: needs a positive prescription. You cannot purify the stream of public life by taking out the things that defile. You must pour into the hearts and the minds of the ‘)eople some gracious and potent influence that will sweeten and strengthen and save. There is only one prophet who, standing in the midst of the â€" The loveliest things in life are exposed to the same peril. Art, music, literature, sport, religion, they are noble streams but they are easily poisoned. Unless some purifying agency is at work conâ€" stantly, contamination is inevitâ€" able. If you can, you may examine the literature, sport, art and reliâ€" gion of the ancient empires or of pagan peoples of today and you will quickly see the tendency to taint. Surely no time in history proves so much as the present that when a people‘s devotion is sullied its culture no matter how rich and ornate soon becomes abominable. "The waters are tainted." ‘ But our streams tend to become tainted and the tainted stream means a stricken city. Taking as his text, "Behold the situation of the city is pleasant but the waters are tainted", II Kings 2: 19, Dr. P. Thornton Meek‘s morning message was entitled "The Spring Was Poisoned". The miniâ€" ster stated that while the city had been flourishing and the country behind it was a picture of agriculâ€" tural prosperity, and but for one drawback Jericho would have been ‘no doubt the happiest ‘of thirty royal cities in Canaan. "The waters were tainted!" Life is based on its simplicities. The flowing stream is always a source of constant ?ride to people of the city as well as those of the country. The river is the natural representative of all the beautifying, satisfying, fertilizâ€" ing forces that to its vast envichâ€" ment smur thenigelves _ through human life. | _ On this Sunday, March 21, at 1the evening service, Mm Balsdon rwill commence & series of sermons entitled "Conscience at the Cross".

Bristol, of Ouingt.on Avenue Baptist church. Mr. Brisâ€" tol spoke on "Visions of Life".

Fleming, B.A., D.D., Bishop of the Arctic. There will be many who will welcome this opportunity St. Philip‘s Carriing over the happy sense of fellowship enjoyed the night before one felt very early that a special day of blessing was in store for us, The beautiful spring flowers the youm;‘ péople had placed in the church to mark their anniversary, and which gave an atmosphere of hone after the long winter; the warm bright day itself; the large A wonderful day of blessing was ¢xperienced in the Weston Baptist church as they marked the first anniversary of the Young People‘s Class. The festivities really besan the night before when on Saturday night a special supper meeting was held in the Central Y.M.C.A. More than fifty of the young people and their friends gathered together to enjoy the f“d things which had been provided for them. It was a happy evening of fellowship, a veritable banquet of good things, stimulating and satisfying both to the needs of the body and of the spirit of those whose privilege it was to be present. to capacity at this impressive service, a token of the sense of ifdebtedness which we all feel toâ€" ward the men and women who have given themselves in service to their country and freedom everywhere, and our gratitude to the families that have sent them forth. May victory soon be ours and our families reunited in .a world made better by much sacrifice.

The subject of "Spiritual Healâ€" ing" was dealt with at last Sunday morning‘s service in answer to a request that the grnyerl of our congregation should be offered in behalf of a well known Weston young woman who is lying dangâ€" erously ill in a Toronto hospital. Mr. Pawson said that prayer is always auxiliary to the work of medicine and surgery and never a substitute for them. The best reâ€" sults are secured when medicine and surgery and religion go hand in hand. Mrs. Baskine is a Parisian, and a snd\ute of the Sorbonne and of olumbia University.
