It will be well, therefore, to make the review lesson centre in Christ, and to think chiefly of our relation Our response, then, is in putting Christ first, in following Him, and in seeking to be like Him. Through Him we come to God. His presence with us now is in the reality and. power of the Spirit. We trust in Him and yield ourselves to His command.

Indeed, Canada cannot attain to true nationhood unless her national life is permeated to the very core with the principles of Christianity. She must build on the basis of faith in God and human brotherhood. When Canadians learn how to live together in mutual appreciation, love and helpfuiness the taint of social unrest will be removed from our fair land. e |_ These years of stress and service have been years of national growth , | and of character building. Canada‘s war achievement has commanded the attention of the civilized world. Abroad her soldiers have won imâ€" perishable renown, at home her citi« zens have shown practical patriotism and a grim dctermination to take their full share in the struggle for human liberty. This achievement has won for Canada an assured place among the nations of the earth. But high position brings with it great responsibility. Canada cannot shirk her share of the task of humanâ€" izing and evangelizing the whole world. And the first step in the acâ€" complishment of this task is to grapâ€" ple with the problems that lie within her borders. Canada‘s golden age lies just ahead, but whether she atâ€" tains her full measure of greatness depends upon the way in which her people settle the questions of toâ€"day. First of all we must develop a naâ€" tional spirit; from the Atlantic to the Pacific we must be one people. The Canadian Confederation must be a unit, each province, each township and village a satisfied member of the commonwealth. Solid settlements of foreigners now exist in our land with their own schools, their own lanâ€" guage, their own customs. A way inust be found (and that soon) to incalculate Canadian ideals and Caneâ€" dian customs into these foreign disâ€" tricts and make them Canadian in the truest and highest sense of the term. In the solution of this problem the work of the school teacher and of the missionary will necessarily have a large place. Early on the First.
