Thoughts For Our Time

By His Eminence Cardinal McGiugon i (C0P5'TlKhU

The readers of current litera- ture cannot fail to note that there is in the minds of people today an nppallnl uncertainty. The charac- ters in our novels show this all-too well. The writers of non-fiction us in the same dilemma. some in dasphlx have put themselves on re- cord gs saying that this is the in- escapable condition of man. They maintain that it is the price we must pay for progress. They fea- turs themselves as the leaders or the new spirit. They refuse to ac- cept the purposefuiness and the meaning that religion gives to life and shrink from being human or religious men. We are supposedly in the period of growing up and sway from religion.

without agreeing in any way with this view we can at least be aware of this fact. The great and opposing philosophies of life to- day are religion and irrellgion. theism or atheism. We have wit- nessed some of the outrages against human persons and hu- man dignity that are the work of the forces of ii-religion. Even the iri-ollglous people of this continent shudder when they think of what will happen to the world if these forces ever achieve their avowed aims.

in final analysis the only cure for our bewilderment. the only thing that will enable us to live in peace is to strike the enemy of civilization at its roots. get rid of atheism and return wholeheartedly to religion. This would ic e revo- lution of major proportions be- cause of the way it would have to be brought about. You don't shove relizion down people's throats. it must come forth from their hearts.

and hearts that are enlightened by minds.

0 O Q The fundamental altitude of

lllllld that is necessary if we are to have I religious outlook is to ack- nowledge that we owe something to God. It is only self-centred and shallow men who talk-of what is due to them and to society and nntioiis and stop there, The truth or the matter is that without God no one has any rights. The coun- tries which espouse the cause of atheism are proof of this. Unless we recognize that we owe God something we will never be able to maintain logically that anyone owes anything to us.

We know that there are a great many things which we owe to other persons whlcli cannot be re- paid in money or things. To our parents. our superiors and our benefactors we owe respect and honor. loyalty. and appreciation. it is especially in things of this nature that we should recognize our indebted to God.

Anyone who is not an ohscursn- list. and this includes even schol- arly obsourantlsts, can geoognlzp that there is no explanation of fin- ite and limited things without a God who is their cause. No man would exist. be able to think or act or love without God, Mun is in debt to God for everything he has or enjoys. We can never adequate- ly repay this debt but good man- uers dictate that we should at least recognize and acknowledge it.

0 O O God is the only Being who gives meaning to human life. The athe-

ists admlt that they have to createl

their own ideals. They. at least the most intelligent among them. frankly admit that without God man is forever unquiet and in menial anguish because he has nothing to give meaning to his life. They admit they long for something. What this is they do not know.

A recent writer has very aptly expressed the debt that men we to God. He compares God to he power plant by which I. modern city is run. If the power plant is stopped all things in the city come to a standstill. If God went on strike nothing in the world would work. we owe it to God that we can do our best as well as our greatest acts.

Men should cultivate God. There is no oiisequlousness or craven ser- villty in this cult. it is the most enlarging and glorious experience that is open to mankind. Every man to be happy must dedicate himself to something. or better. to someone. Wholehearted religion means dedication to God. We are 11 generation which prides itself on being realistic and yet we seem re- conciled to accepting substltutu, There are many things for which we can find reliable substitutes. There can never be a substitute for God.

Mrs. W. c. lie;-I Returns From New York

Mrs. W. C. Hoyt of lfoyt's Beauty Salon returned this week from New York City where she attend- ed the international I-lalrdresser's Convention and took three instruc- tional courses under the super- vision of noted hairdressers.

The convention was held at the Capitol Hotel from September 18-23 and Mrs. lloyt was the only linir-dresser from this province to attend.

Louie. iiotnd artist in haircut- tlng and cold waving was her in- structor in one course. His idea of hair-cutting. Mrs. Hoyt explained. is to find the least bit of natural wave and cut the hair tokits nat- uralness so that it will be easy to manage. cold waving is done very soft and natural.

Mrs. Hoyt also took a course from Charles, another noted per- manent wave and hair stylist. In heat permanent waves he uses a certain processing method which leaves the hair soft as a cold wave. His idea of styling is prac- tical - the hair is waved with not too many curls. This style requires a good hair cut.

While there Mrs. 1-Ioyt took a Post Graduate course in electroly- sis from Madam L.aQuere. a spec- ialist for the removal of super- fluous hair on the fa

G UIDEBS MEETING

Guide and Brownie Leaders met on Thursday evening and dis-

cussed Winter Programmes and plans for the Royal visit. The Preai ent. Miss El-inc M5000"-

ald conducted the meeting and welcomed the many new Leaders present. .

Discussion of second hand uni- forms was ii matter of interest to all and Mrs. Jean MacLean sug- gested that each Church appealed for any used uniforms g of past Guides or Brownies. This sugges- tion was approved. Should any parents of former Guides have a uniform in any condition would you be kind onou-lh to Semi 1,” your Church Guides or Brownie Leader or to Mrs. F. S. Jenkinsi

Guiders were asked to attend the Semi-Annual Mtetinrr. oi the

The Hcssliorough and Brownie Shield conipetitions in-re (Ii-cusscdp and. suggestions were to be consirieredl and forwardr-ti to the Executive. Members. The possibility of an-l other variety concert by "10 Guides and Brownies in February was in be considered and could be a money-raising project.

Mrs. Jenkins distributed Food pamphlets obtained from the Dept. of Health and Welfare which were to be used in the Second Class Test. These will help Leaders and Guides and can be obtained from Miss Hazel Rowland of the Health Dept. or Mrs. Jenkins. Miss Row- land was to be invited to speak at the October meeting.

Mrs. Ralph Dumont. Charlotte- town Commissioner was present and assured the Leaders of her willingness to help in any way possible and urged them to call her when necessary. Regret was expressed by all at Mrs. Marie McKay's illness. and a speedy re- covery was hoped for.

Weeks ago. many bird families broke up. fathers, mothers. and children scattered. and are new separated by hundreds of miles. When the nesting period was over. other families continued to Ii-BY in little, private groups through the remainder of summer and ear- ly autumn; now they are still sticking together. even though they may have joined friends to form a large company.

Throughout September and for the first an days or so of Octob- or. it is not uncommon to see a flock of over coo Warblers. oom- posed of perhaps eight or ten var- ietles. sometimes as many as 400 Myrtle Warblers help to make up one of those big flocks, and the fact that often a. large percentage is young birds leads us to believe that many families travel togeth-

er.

Although juvenile Yellowtiiroats are now two or three months old. full grown, and perfectly well able to look after themselves, their parents have stuck by them. The little olive green birds all cruise around near their old nesting grounds. drawing attention to themselves by their wren-like talk- ing, until time to join other Warb- lers and fly south. Yellowthroatf actions also are wren-like.

They keep low in,i.he bushes. but if you are able to catch a glimpse of the black mask worn by the head of the family you will recognise him. His appearance is as unmistakable as hb "witchlty. witchity. witch" song. which you stll have a chance of hearing if he is in your vicinity and you are awake at 530 in the morning. ucking this mask. his wife and children are inconspicuous, but their yellow throats. white bellies, and brownish sides are good dis- tinguishing marks.

There is a vast contrast in just about every way between small Ysilowthroats and Canada Geese which are 0 1-2 ea as large. Yet they have this n common: the parents stick by their children from birth. hunting with them, and finally migrating with them. The Warblers leave by mid-Oct- ober. the Geese not until two months later.

Thus handsome grey Geese with black heads and necks can be identified as they fly by Quoti- white chin patch and the wblta V out their tails. Hocking freedom- l osuses us to look skyward at a

k of one or more. migrating in

I might be penning this column in the "Kingdom" of Canada. in- stead of the Dominion of Canada, had the first name offered by sir John A. MacDonald been accepted by the British big wigs.

The elimination of the word "Kingdom" was not made until the 6th draft of the Canadian Constitution at London. 1867.

The 7th and final revision con- tained the name, "Dominion" of Canada. which Mr. MacDonald later offered as one of several suggestions sent in. The name "Dominion" is borrowed from the Bible. Psalm 72:8. Authorized Ver- slon: "He shall have dominion from sea to sea." The Canadian motto: "A marl usque ad more". from sea to sea, also alludes to this country and is copied from the Latin Psalm 72:8.
