Rev. Somers Delivers Annual Christmas Message to Rotary

“Hospitality for the Highest" was the subject of the Christ- mas Address by Rotarian. the Rev. T.H.B. Somers. M.A.. S.T. l\l., Minister of the Kirk of St. James. at the luncheon meeting of Rotary in the Charlottetown Hotel on Monday. T.D.B. De- Blois was chairman and R. D. l\laeGillivray co- chairman. In the course of his address the speaker said:

"On Christmas Eve as. in imagination. you and I stand at Bethlehem's Inn an see how easily the highest can be shut out by a little innospitality. we well may say to ourselves that to he hospitable is about as im- portant and as self-revealing an act as any we perform.

Consider. for one thing. much of the richness of lives comes not from our out- ward strenuousness but from our inward hospitality. W h e n we hear a man described as a "steam engine in trousers" how clearly the type of character suggested by that stands out! \‘ignur. energy, drive, strenu- ousness —— such valuable quali- ties are there without which no continent like ours could have been subdued. But if a m a n is merely a steam engine in trous- ers. how much less than a ma he is!

Upon the other side. suppose we had never heard of W o rds- worth. knew nothing concerning

him save. it may be. his lines.

beginning: “Therefore am I still. A lover of the meadows and the woods. And mountains. and of all that we behold From this green earth." How instinctively our estim- ate of him would rise! We should know at least that he was not merely a steam engine in trousers. He had an interior hospitality to some love things. There were times when beauty came to his door and he made room for it. And we should expect in such a life some richness. some radiance and fragrance. some c h a r m and winsomeness which n o trousered steam engine c a n ever know. TIME TO FOR
