As the speaker paid these testimonies, he was deeply moved and so were many in the pews. Rev. Mr Whaley took his text from Phil. 2: 16, "I have notâ€"run in vain." Beâ€" fore entering on his discourse he made personal references to each. / The request to have Lieut.

He drew comfort to the mourners from many sources, among them the case of Harry Lauder, who was at first rebelnous over the loss of his only son but was now a prince of men since God had led him. He cited men of prayer like Foch, Lioyd George, Admiral Beatty and others, and it was ours to see by lively faith that our dead have not died in vain.

It was tim« now to make sure that when foreigners set foot on our shores they must couform‘ to British ideals. _ He would even insist that all new comers should speak the English language, giving them 2 or perâ€" ‘ haps 3 years to iearn it. â€" The multiplicity l of tongues as at Babel produces confusion and deters progress. He closed an eloquent sermon by say« \ng that it was the duty of all to see that Character was enithroned as it never was before.

But do Durhamites have to travel to Owen Sound to see a memorialof their heroesdead and gone? _ A South Grey centre is more to the point and for that matter every municipality should have some public recognition in a lastingâ€"way, of their own boys. ® But instead of cold bronze or marble, let us rather have something that will speak â€"a living memorial that will b{ing us iato vital contact with it in our daily routine and so have cause never to forget the deeds they did and what. we owe to our * unreturning brave."
