Durham $11.50 $10.50 $17.00 $11.25 $10.25 A marked change has taken place in the mental attitude of the American peOple; they are beginning to realize . that they cannot isolate themselves from the rest of the world as success- fully as they once thought they could. They see,. too, that the huge debts which Eur0p,e owes them were lines of credit established by these European countries in the United States to en- able them to buy American goods. These goods were then selling at high prices and by‘asking them to pay back now as much as they borrowed in the . days oi‘booming prosperity, means ac- tually that they would be paying two and three times as much, since money now buys much more than it did in war times. They also see that the Europ- ean countries concerned can only se- cure gold by trading goods which they have for gold, and since the gold coun- tries (France and United States) will not exchange gold for goods, it is quite impossible for the debtor countries to pay the United States in gold and since the United States will not accept payment in goods the debt. under the circumstances, cannot be paid. Many who a few years ago swore by tarin‘s. are doubtful about their power to bring prosperity and others have gone com- pletely against them. General conditions in Detroit are very bad. Three large businesses went into the hands of the receiver the day of my visit (though not on that ac- count). It was rumored too that Mr. Ford was withdrawing his new eight cylinder car from the market; I could not learn why but the short time that During dinner I had the opportunity of visiting with Mr. and Mrs. Hughes- Hallett. Mr. Hallett is the British Con- sul in Detroit. To my surprise I found that while Canada has a Minister Plenipotentiary in Washington, in the person of the Hon. W. D. Herridge, and Trade Commissioners scattered over the Whole of the United States, much of'the Canadian -work falls to the lot .Of the British Consuls placed in the different centres. Our Trade Commis- sioner deals with matters of trade only and the many tangles over immigra- tion regulations, liquor laws, etc., are for the most part, solved by the Con- sul. It would seem that our Trade Commissioners should be given the au- thority of consuls and their sc0pe would then be enlarged to include all Canadian-American disputes localized in their particular centre. I was given the opportunity of ad- dressing a distinguished group of the citizens of Detroit. The women lawyers of that city entertained the Judges, of whom all except one are men, at Dinner at the Dearborn Inn, just 0p- posite the Ford Airport. Since it was suggested that I speak on any subject I - wished, I thought it worth while to make use of the opportunity offered to discuss present economic conditions and more particularly finance and trade obstructions. They were a de- llghtful group of people, so generous and friendly; at the head table they had placed more Britishers than Am- ericans and the Canadian flag was given as prominent a place as their The budget debate is dragging along until Tuesday. The Whips have agreed that the division will come on that day. Asisusualthedebatehasbcenlonger than was anticipated, but the debate on the budget provides an excellent opportunity for the members to dis- cuss conditions in their constituency or some particular grievance that can- not be brought up at any other time. After the first few days the debate commands a slim House; the members who have made their speech can do nothing more in the House except lis- ten until the vote takes place and many of them seize this opportunity to at- tend to work outside the Capital city, either personal or public. thousand pounds." The hymn owes much to the simple and pleasing melody which was com- posed by John Edgar Gould of Phila- delphia. Mr. Gould’ published no less than eight books of hymns and songs. and maintained in all his works. an unusually high standard. He died at Algiers, Africa. in February. 1875.

Hetty ? ” For some reason he was always a great favorite with sailors, and in 1870 he became pastor of a church in New York. This was known as “The Church of the Sea and Land." Here Dr. Hopper ministered acceptably until his death in 1888. The hymn was first published in The Sailors‘ Magazine in 1871 and at once became a general favorite. Origin- ally the hymn had six stanzas but Dr. Hopper realized it was too long for con- gregational singing. and wisely cut it down to three. The hymn as it now stands in most hymnals is made up of the first and last two stanzas of the or- iginal. Like a good many other out- standing hymns of the Church. this hymn is the only one written by its composer which merits a place of en- during remembrance. Dr. Rapper wrote a good many hymns but the others are practically forgotten. Whether or not Dr. Hopper ever rea- lized that he had written a great hymn seems doubtful. Probably it was first intended for use in his sailor congre- gation. Certain it is that it was the at- mosphere of his church which called forth the hymn. When in 1888 Dr. Hop- places, always endearing himself to his people because of his deep sincerity and understanding sympathy. For el- even years he was pastor of a church in Sag Harbor, Long Island. The author of this hymn was Rev. Edward Hopper. DD. Dr. Hopper was born in New York City in 1818. His fa- ther was a merchant and-on his moth- er's side he was descended from the Huguenots. Quite early in life Edward Hopper decided to enter the ministry of the Presbyterian Church and grad- uated from Union Theological College in 1842. For nearly thirty years he min- “JESUS. SAVIOUR.
