I Worry

Worry hits men and women in all walks of life. The steel-workers in the nrills are not worrying over future wan-s, it is true, but they are worrying over their jobs and how long .the mill will work without a shut-down. _

The writer worked for , some months as asecond-helper in a steel mill, open hearth department, and on all sides was heard the rworried expression, "These good limes won't last. We will have a shut-down ‘in a few months." All auto workers at Detroit have the cams worry, although orders may be iioding the offices,

The rich man worries most about his money; he worries for tear he shall lose it; be worries about his Investments. Worry is universal.

Worry never gains an iota for anyone. but still humans are prone Ito worry.

Virgin Birth Notes of a Sermon on the "Virgin Birth" delivered by Dean Llwyd at the Cathedral of All

Saints’ Halifax, N. S. December 30th 1923.

Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on the wise, etc. St. Matthew 1, 18.

l. This doctrine is not as has been alleged, a late invention springing from monasticlsinl (a) it ls mentioned by St. Ignatius oi Antioch the first decade of the second century. (b) It can hardly. be necessary to point out that any such theory of its origin is reputed by its mention ln the gospels of St. Matthew and St. Luke.

(2) Nor ls the doctrine in any sense a slur upon marriage. Against this stands the iudubitahle fact of history that where ever the Virgin birth of Christ has been most sincerely believed in, marriage has been must exalted, as a union in- volving a spiritual bond, and its vows have been most sacredly kept. Divorce has become most rampant in nations sceptical of this doctrine.

3. The evidence for the Virgin Birth is that of the two persons best qualified to speak upon the sub)...“ scholar; are largely agreed that the section relating to it in St. Matthew comes from St. Joseph the Protector and reputed father-O! our Lord. while that in St. Luke is held to have been a direct anation from the Virgin Mary her- self, made in all likelihood at the time when St. Paul and St. Luke were in Caesavea, and the latter was collecting ine information as to Christ's lite reproduced in his Gospel. -

4. That it is a doctrine of the Church of England, and of the catholic Church in general is clear from its position in the »Aspostlss' Creed, in Christmas prefade in our Communion Service, and in the writings of the greatest theologians ooth ancient and modern. We may not. say that it i; on an equal level with the doctrine of the in- carnation itself, for it expresses the mode rather than the fact, but beyond all doubt. it comes next la importance to that supreme fact oi‘ our religion.

The Church does not sanction our saying that it is an essential of gqvatioa, for the only absolute essential is Faith in. Christ, but it is an essential of the full Catholic Faith of Christians. and those whose creed is without it are accepting a maimed and imperfect Christianity.

5. For a clergyman of our Church this article of the Creed is ethically obligatory, as much so as any other of the statements of historic ‘ fact therein containl-d. To purpose one's belief in it at one point in the service, and then to stand up in the pulpit and deny it, or water it down to mean nothing, is a violation of ordinary standards of intellectual honor; it is dishonest. The only proper and honorable course under such circumstances is to leave the ministry of the Church.

There is no parallel between the effect of modern scientific know- ledge upon the doctrine of Christ's Ascension and that of the Virgin Birth. The Ascension of our Lord has simply been explained and in- terpreted by our newer information to the universe, it has not justified us in. denying that doctrine. But ap- parently that is the object in con- nection with the supernatural con- ception of Jesus. The two effects are as wide apart as the poles.

6. Science has also an affirma- tive word upon the question. She tells us of other modes of propaga- tion, besides that of sex; such as division. budding. etc. in. clearly simply one out of many Divinely ordained methods for the trans- ‘mission of the torch of life.

t 7. The best spiritual thought of

the Church has always discerned

‘an eminent. fitness in the Virgin

girth as the method of the incarna- on.

than a mere fact-value: l! ll. Illd has always shown itself, the pro motor _of chastity in man and woman. The Virgin Mother and her Divine Son had, considered only as

flood of barbarian life that shatter- ed the Roman Empire. They gentl~ ed it and prepared the way for the dawn of the ﬁreﬂi- BPE °t chivalry . The sexualism which de- grades modern life and literature finds no room for existence in presence of such types as these.

9. What are the alternative views? The marriage of Joseph and Mary. Then the Gospel story

which throws a shadow upon the credibility of all the rest of the lilvangelic narrative. '

Illegltimacyi Then not only are the Gospels a lying legend. but the bar sinister rests upon the Saviourﬁs birth. How incredible that a character so stainless in its purity and a morality so transacend ent in its elevation could have sprung from a defiied, fountain! Christmas then becomes only a. Pagan festival, and for twenty centuries the millions of Christ's followers have been lifted above their sin by one who was Himself a sinner. It is impossible.

Therefore, believe in- Jesus Christ who was conceived by the Holy Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary! No other explanation of Him is adequate.

And therefore. by faith hag a rational basis, and needs not to be disturbed or shaken by the attacks of unbeiief.

Nerves Restored Headache Gone

A Grateful Letter From a Well Known Vancouver Nurse

"ln the summer of 1922," says Mrs. Mary Hill, of stAvsnue west, Vancouver, B. C., “l became very anxious about my young daughter's health. She was attending a com- mercial school. and between" her close study and exceptionally hot weather she became very much run down- I noticed that she look- ed white and seemed constantly tired, was depressed over her studies, and irritable and peevlsh about the house. I got several ton- ics l had heard well spoken of. but they did not seem to help her. At this stage an advertisement of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills, telling of a similar case, was brought to my at- tention, and l decided to give this medicine a trial. You may judge of my surprise ‘and delight when I noticed an improvement in her con- dition, almost béfore the first box was finished. She continued tak- ing Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for some time, gaining in health and strength. l-Ier headaches. back- achcs and depression disappeared, and she again looked well and happy. She has since, I am glad to say, kept perfectly well and passed her examinations with credit.

“l must have worried more than I knew over my daughter's health for though l have earned my living as a maternity nurse for the past 12 years. even the most trying cases did not seem to exhaust me until last fall, when I seemed to give out suddenly. I became so nervous that I had to decline work, and I suffered from headaches and a constant foeiing of depression. I attributed my condition to the fact that I was entering a critical time of life. It was my daughter who suggested that Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills might do me as much good as they h d done her, and after a fﬂllllﬁll use of theni for a time this proved to be the case. My nerves regain- ed their qteadlness, and my germ-g] health improved so much that I felt able to undertake my uursin duties again. I have taken the pi s occasionally since, and thanks to them have been able to stand the strain of my work splendidly and still feel as well as over. l am very hateful to Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills and am thankful to have found such a reliable medicine for use in my b01116. and l can conscientious- ly recommend it to any suffering ‘woman or girl coming undoi- my care or influence."-

You can get these bills from any medicine dealer or by mail at 50c a ox from The Dr. Williams’ Medi- cine 0o.. Brookviiie. Ont.

HABITS AND THE TEETH

Eighty-five Per Cont cf School Clvlld rcn suffer from Dental Decay Which zlo a Manilogtatic of Unhyglcnlc Living. The Kind

- of Food we Eat and Manner of Proportlng lit arc Much . at Fault. .

By Dr. Wallace Succumbs

Professor of Preventive Dentist- ry, Royal College of Dental Surgeons. Toronto.

Forvniany years the teeth have been considered without regard to their relationship to the health of the body. This is a mistake, for diseases of the teeth are no differ- ent from diseases in other parts of the body and have the same de- _ pressing action upon the sufferer‘: health. It was throught that infec- tion in a tooth or in the gum tissue was not a menace to health and was not related to-the blood stream or other parts of the syn/tom. Furth- ermore it Wlg thought that the alarming increase‘ of diseases of the teeth was in no way connected wnh conditions of bodily health and had nothing to do with "the ordinary function of the bodily organs. r

Both of these supposition; have been shown to be absolutely erroneous. Not only may infection in the teeth act as a starting point of infection cf the body precisely as does an infected tonsel, but general bodily health conditions may and do directly affect’ the health of the teeth. Thus health of the tooth. or dental health as it is called, rests upon the broad founda- tion of bodily health. .

Since about 85 per cent of the school children suffer from de- payed teeth it will be seen that dental disease i; the most pre- valent disease afflicting mankind and may properly be considered in' the nature of a national scourge. But disease of tho teeth is only one of the manifestations of unhygieuic and unscientific living.

DO WE CARE

We live in strenuous times. Tho modern pace is furious and the load is heavy. Will the civilised races of to-day survive the strain? Do we want the Canadian nation to live through the centuries? Do we care whether Canadians deterior- ate phynlcially and become diseas- ed and smitten, or whether they even. develop and exemplify the "survival of the fittest. "Do we caret" ..

lf we do. we cannot settle back with smug complacency and-over- look all our weaknesses and failur- es. How far can we go, as a people, unless we follow habits of living that make for "health. strength and virility? We are creatures of habit. we pride ourselveg upon our democratic ideas, while in fact most of us are abject of custom. Our preconceived ideas lead us to regard the Chinaman as one who works backwards. But upon due con sideration it may be found that the Chinaman has a equal justification for thinking that we do thing; up- side-down. Many of our habifs- of

year to year without reason and with little regard to the un- fortunate result. "

It is time that every good citizen stopped to enquire the why and wherefore of modern methods of living and to "abhor that which is evil cleave to that which is good" in our civilisation. if Canadians are to retain their physical fitness and survive. -

Perhaps the most menacing feature of our modern diet. from the standpoint of the teeth. is the dsmineralitiug of our foods. Modern milling methods degrade the wheat, eliminate vital ‘and o ml germ elements. and pro- duce a flour, refined but seriously deficient in food essentials. Bolted flour is degorminated and do- miuoraliled- we might almost uy e dovitaliled~o|ul tot? highly refined

Besides being related to , general condition of the bmiy u. , is no doubt that decay pg . teeth is, to a great extent, cs _; by the deficiencies of our mod. diet such as:

(a) Too little of the foods ..- taining mineral salts. '

Correct this by using plenty .1 whole wheat flour, fruits, reg ables in abundance eaten ruw or ' cooked by using the water they"; boiled in for soups. Other comp‘

' tive food of this character are esp,

dried peas, beans, lentils. raising, nuts. dates, figs and other uaturu foods. .

(b) Too much sugar sweets ut jams. - ' Correct this by modeniti Drink plenty of milk. In general terms it may be said that such diet will supply neces ' vitamiiies and will also exercise . powerful influence in tho preve tion of dental disease.

Therefore. throughly masticate all food ill give much needed exercise to 1M jaws and teeth, which in iurl will bring about a proper blotti- supply and health development oi the dental organs and surrounding parts.
