Then came one sent from God who ,knew the peasant's life and who had in Ella heart the “cry of the earth’. As Lfluther says in his History of Modern hinting, “Millet is not the first who [Ins represented them truthfully, in all ktheir ruggedness, and likewise in their Lmatness, not for the amusement of others. but as they claim a right to their own existence. The spirit of the rustic is naturally grave and heavy, the number of his ideas and emo- is small. His life, which forces to earn his bread by the sweat of his brow. always reminds him of the hard fundamental conditions of ex- istence. Even the earth he stands on wakens in him a mood of seriousness. It is gravely sublime, this nature with its wide horizon and its boundless sky. At certain seasons it wears a friendly smile, especially for those who have es- caped for a few hours from town. But for him who always lives in it, it is not the good, tender mother that the townsman fancies. It has its oppressive heats in summer, and its winter frosts; its majesty is austere.” “Millet is called to be the interpreter of this life which he knew so intim- ately.

Mr. Skinner read the service, and later spoke from II Samuel, Chapter 1, 23rd verse, quoting the words, “They were lovely and pleasant in their lives, and in death they were not divided.” Dr. Lee, Mark Shung, and George Mark. three young men from the Chinese Mission. paid glowing tributes to Miss McDougall for her work among the Chinese. Dr. Lee said she was their friend, sister councillor and adviser. She was known to all the Chinese, even to the smallest child, and was loved by all. She helped them materially, morally and spiritually to graduate from Universities and Col- leges, and many of them are now oc- cupying positions of trust in China and elsewhere. Many Pay Tribute To Wreck Victim The following amel some of the boys and girls taught by Miss McDougall in her Sunday School class: Dr, George Lee, graduated from Toronto University in Medicine, gave his servim for two years in Canton Hospital, in Canton, China; Mr. Peter Mark, graduated in M11.

The service was from the Presbyterian church. which was filled to capacity with friends who mourned the tragic ending of two who were honored and revered. The service was taken by the pastor, Rev.
