Murphy in his remarks noted that some of the eligible bac lors of the district might do wel to inquire further regarding the exhibitors of this fine cook- ing. . There was an excellent display of roots and vegetables. The Cof- fin twins Fred .2nd Frank who are perennial Winners in potato ex- hibits again took the top‘honours. Souris exhibition is a friendly gav ' ring where good natured ri- v is carried on between neigh- bors. It is characterized by a homespun atmosphere free from the forms of commercialism which detract from the origmal purpose of rural Fairs of this kind. As one, of the speakers not- ed—with the interest shown, there is every reason to believe that the show will continue for many years to come. CATTLE - J UDGING

~ RELIGION

BY VERY REV. GEORGE

RANGE OF TRUTHS MUST COVER WHOLE

Some years ago a Toronto journalist visited the churches of the city and wrote his impress ions of their wofiship and their message. In the main. his com- ments were discerning and flair, but on one of the greater chinch- es he was severe.

He summed up a biting criti- cism with a remark something like thisz—“If I want entertain- ment or instruction, or if I want as answer to the question as old

do to be saved? I shall go else where.”

How would a visitor seeking in desperation for an answer to that question, fare the churches of today? And, to be quite personal, how would a reader on the same quest, fare in column?

The obvious answer is:— A preacher can’t always be preach- ing on conversion. The whole range of Bible truth and of hu- man need is before him, and he cannot be “true to his trust” to the seeking soul.

At the same time, the entrance to the Christian ,way of life is of primary importance. ‘

I think it was Dr. T. L. Cuyler, of Brooklyn, who said that even when he did not preach directly on that subject, he always tried, either by an “aside” or by a pointed appeal, to echo Christ’s call to the sinner.

AND THY HOUSE

When the Philippian un- der the stress of a sudden con- viction, burst in on St. Paul with the question: “What must I do to be saved?”, the Apostle re- plied: “Belleve on the Lord Jo sun and thou shalt be saved, and. thy house.”

Then, ,when in Ephesians 2: 8—10 the Apostle. analyzed that answer, he wrote the finest explanation to be found anywhere:

“For by grace have ye been saved by faith; and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God; not of works that no man should glory. For we are His workman- ship, created in Christ Jesus for good works which God before prepared that we should walk in them” (Ephesians 2: 8-10).

Which is to say — we are sav- ed, not by good works but in or- der to do good works.

You cannot save yourself by any effort a human being can make. You must accept salvation .asagift—afineegihtofGod.

St. Paul’s Gospel is true for all men for all time: the ques- it seems. The faith that saves is How can it become effective in my particular case?

A lifetimes experience would lead one to put the emphasis ,on the sciond phrase in the state- meInIt Just quoted. —— "and that .not of ourselves" — that is, even that faith not of ourselves, even the faith that receives salvation is God’s gift. He enables me‘to accept for myself the salvation which He has provided for all the world.

AS A STUDENT

When a young student in my first mission field, I was called to visit a sufferer whose disease seemed likely ,to be fatal. He was an old pioneer who had liv- ed through the hardships and struggles of early life in northern Ontario, and had measured his strength against the sevenities of its climate and the difficulties which had challenged the settlers. Now death was just ahead, and frankly and fearlessly he laced it

When I tried to explain to him the Gospel offer as I understood it, his answer was: “It seems too simple. If there was anything I could do at all equal to the re-

water system (I). the wharf, which

as Christianity—What must 1'

Two 500-gallon fueltanks and one“;

loo-gallon fuel tank are also to be installed, Two projection and 8 horizontal heaters with all steam and return piping and fittings, will be installed in the shed; and cast-iron radiators in the offices, rest room and lavatory, where plumbing fixtures will also be in- stalled.

' stallation of a water system will be made in the Boiler House, to consist, of pump and pressure tank, including all piping and fittings. The water system is to be extended to the shed to supply four fire-fighting outlets, and to ti wharf to supply five outlets for feeding ships.

Plans and specifications were prepared by the Charlottetown District Office of the Harbours and Rivers Engineering Branch of the Federal Department of Public Works.

so} I expect, I could understand ’ ‘

This is a common perplexity. Human pride and self-sufficiency wants to cut a path to Heaven for himself through the trackless forest of life. But Christ has open- ed a way for each and all, and it is the only way to that destin- aItiIon. 1‘ _

TheWayisnIotassiumalIeas 1 beams; The fiaih ha save 1 an act of self ~commitment to Another. By this faith I cast my- self on Christ, trusting Him to do iglrfme what I cannot do for my-

JIt-is a. living person to whom I entrust my destiny. Not only my fate, but my present condi- tion is put into His hands. He make me what He wants me to be in order that I may be His and that He may be mine now and always.

HE HAS GIVEN

An event of tremendous sight deduce is conversion in anyone's conscious experience. It means that the creator begins to direct the life He has given. It means that a new personality takes his place in the outworking of God’s plan. '

Two young people came to me just the other day to tell me of [their With all the flow of youth’s enthusiasm they

are turning their lives in a new direction. ' . \As persons they were (summit— tinIg themselves to a personal God for His uses and ends. They had not decided on their life-work. but whatever it might be it would mean serving Christ. .
