rm 2. IN THE FALL OF 1921, A CHRISTIAN ORDER WAS OR- ganized by fourteen Protestant people in Japan. The Japan- ese Student Bulletin reports that since then the membership has rapidly increased. and now it reaches nearly 2.000. It is an interdenominational organization haying its inemhers among varous denomâ€"inâ€"ntions' and unchurchetf people. [can â€"»no-Tomo Kai, or Friends of Jesus, is the full name of the order. At the time of the great earthquake, the Tokyo brnneh v- ‘v- V --v v--- â€"â€"â€"â€" â€" of this order did wonderful social service and engaged in relief work under the leadership of Toyohiko Kagawa. Friends of Jesus Bulletin. their monthly organ. reveals their untiring service in various phases as an expression of their devotion to the spirit of Jesus. The order has five points of life as admittance requirements; nameIY. ( 1) Personal Piety in Jesus. (2) Love of Labor (Intellectual and Manual), (3)_ Actual Participation in Social Service, (4) Purity, and ('5) International Peace. The Tokyo Friends of Jesus keep their Sunday morning service at six in the Y. M. C. A. Assem- bly Hall. and engage in various kinds of service, such as nurs- ing the sick. visiting the inmates of prisons, preaching at street corners, and studying the actual city problemsâ€"Pres. byteriau Survey. THE SEVEN DEADLY SOCIAL SINS ACCORDING TO Canon Frederick Lewis Donaldson of Westminster Abbey are Moreover, ultra-organized churches give too great an op- portunity to men who are inferior in everything but ambition. They climb to the position of prestige to the detriment of abler men. On the score of being “administrators,” and “good business men,” they rule the church. And ecclesias- tically, as everywhere, it is an ill sight to see “servants upon horses, and princes walking as servants upon the earth.”â€" Dr. Dinsdale T. Young. “THERE GOES A MAN WHO IS DOING HIS SHARE IN elevating this community!” said one. “Some great preacher?" asked the other. “No, just an everyday successful business man who has proved the practicability of serving God quietly in an every- day sort of life. One of his office men was once in jail, an- other forged his name, and a third was a confirmed drunkard, but all of them are as straight as a string now. Say, his quiet deeds have not only raised the life of those men, but lifted this entire community to a higher level.” I ead the growth of such a type of minister. Always sol- ici ng subscribtions! Always filling in schedules! Always summoning a committee! Always planning a new departure! When a minister prefers guarding machinery to preparing for the pulpit and preaching and visiting his people, that sec- ularized minister sounds the death-knell of his ministry. If one life can do so dumb, whit cannot a group of con- secrated Endeavorers arcomnlish by linking up with love your pledge and the Golden Rule? IT IS TOLD OF A CERTAIN MAN IN A BIG CITY THAT every night he was in the habit of visiting a haunt where poor wretches were accustomed to seek temporary shelter, and of providing at least one man with a breakfast. A friend under- took to argue with him about the uselessness of it, in the face of so much misery, adding: “It is only a drop in a bucket.” “That’s all right,” replied the man, “and I’m just at- tending to my drop!” TO MAKE A MINISTER A SORT OF BUSINESS MAN- ager is a prostitut_ion _of the most deqlorgbk‘ kinda _I confegs WE RECOGNIZE THE GREATNESS AND VALUE OF the service which modern science is giving to the cause of truth in uncovering the facts of the natural world.

BITTERNESS 0F CHURCH HEADS PAIRS BOARD Spirit of “Putty Animosity" in church Property 6:“st- villo Refund. The Ontario Church Property Commission, in decisions .issued Wednesday. refused the application of the minorit of the Orangeville Presbyterian c urch, which asked for a declaration that the vote was invalid, on the ground of irregular- ities. Chairman Falconbridge, in his reasons, says there was no evi- dence of an irregularity in the vote. VU-‘vv â€" â€"_ The commission also recommend- ed that the Unionist minority of Hillsburg Presbyterian church be given the use of the church from 2 to 5 o‘clock on Sunday afternoons till the end of December 1926. In the Hillsburg case, B. S. Cas- sels, one of the Commissioners says; . ow“... “It was with surprise and pain that I listened to the entirely in- sufficient reasons given for opposing this application. W‘hile opinions may difl'er as to the wisdom of the application by the Unionist minor- ity of the congregation for limited use of the church, there can be but one opinion, it seems to me, as to the refusal of that application by the Presbyterian majority. Use Church “The aplioation should, I think, have been acceded to cheerfully and at once, and the failure to grant it is an indication of a spirit of petty animosity, the existence of ‘which -v-u-wv in a Presbyterian congregation I am ashamed to have to acknowledge. I think the Commission should rec- ommend that tho applicants be al- lowed to use the church without charge from 2 to 5 o‘clock on Sun- day atternoontti‘ll the end of 1926. -_-I._ __-:.q'nn "And this brings up a much wider question. The commission has now heard nearly twenty cases, and there seems to be not the slightest desire on either side to adjust the difficul- ties which exist and to lessen the bitterness which has arisen between Presbyterians and former Presb ter- ians. In most of the cases, the res- byterians have been applicants, and the United Chu'rchmen have had it in their power to grant at least a measure of relief. But what has taken place. In nearly every in- stance, diametricallv opposed evi- dence as to facts has been given, and there has been on both sides the urging of technical objections to the giving of relief. The Obliging Boss Clerk: “Sir, I’d like to I salary raised.” . ‘nquuâ€" Boés: “Well dpn’t. worry. I’ve managed to raise 1t every week so far. haven’t. I?” “It is a pitiable thing that to ad- just these. property rights between two branches of the Christian church, the services of three mem~ hers of the bar should be necessary. The arrangements required could well be made by the parties them- selves with a little mutua’l conces- sion and good-will, and the services of the commission ought not to he. required. What value is the ordin- ary man to place on the teachings and exhortations of the professed servants and followers of the Christ when in the adjustment by them of the practical problems which have arisen between the l'nited church and the Presbyterian church there seems to be entirely lacking the, unselfish and selfâ€"forgetting spirit which ought. to have first place in the hearts and minds of those who strive to serve and foi- low Him'?“â€"â€""l‘oronto Telegram.

Several citizens who passed the building but a few minutes be- fore the alarm was given saw .noth- ing amiss. Miss Violet Bewither- wick first noticed the fire from the window of her bed‘oom and called her father, who gave the alarm. Nothing could have been done to save Mr. Radford’s building, so all etfort was used in removing the fur- niture, etc., from both his residence and that of Mr. Beswitherwick. At first, it was thought that the latter’s home must also go. but many willing helpers, armed with fire ex- tinguishers and buckets of water, waged a stubborn fight for several hours and came of! victorious.â€" Fordwi ch Record. The fact ma be contemplated with both pri c and «regret. It is to the credit of the Canadian in» stitutions of learning that their graduates are in such demand in the United States. It is a tribute ‘also to Canadian character. With- out character, whatever the educa- tional qualifications might be, Canâ€" adians would not have earned the confidence and respect they enjoy in the United States. According to the president of the University of Toronto, there are at least 600 college graduates from Can- ada holding academic positions in the United States. On the other hand, it is a matter for regret that the services of so many voung people educated at con- siderahle expense are lost to their own country. For the present, how- ever. the loss seems to be inevnta- ble. As compared with Canada, the United States is a country of great wealth and many opportunities. The remedy will be found in the devel- Opment of Canada. so that it will not be necessary for her young peo- ple to seek elsewhere for opportun- ity. The process of development may be slow, but it is likely to be “0.".
