'5 phran which we have gywsai for our theme is borrowed Ham an address liven recently at .i college Convocation by Di-. gmdrord of Providence. R..I.-"The omega! 4.! the ABCUAIICY-"

go illustrate his point he told (his story: He met a friend one gay who, with his wife. had start- "; out to drive to Alaska. He met his friend with the familiar greei mg, "I hope you had a good trip. .-wp had," was the answer. "but on rlioiway we ran into transportation difficulty, and the place where we ,m,.ped proved so interesting that we. were glad to spend the rest of our holiday there. We hope to get .0 Alaska some day." , Many of us have had experien- (ss of this sort in which the way waved to be so much more inter- 4-sling than our destination; that H, .5 on its scenes and incidents may, y delight to dwell.

Life has a way of teaching that ;y;rivals are not for us. but it com- ...-mates us for the disappointment ,,y me. beautles,and opportunities o: the way. Columbus dreamed of io-aching the far east; he never got mi-rc, but he discovered America an lhc way. so in ancient days, Moses. was always moving on. As hr moved he dreamed of reaching inc land promised to his fathers, in hnmclzlnd restful and fruitful. Now ulwn Moses wanted anything he umilcd it emphatically and per- siiibfl in pleading with God to let mm lead Israel into her heritage. Ar last there came a definite rc- iusal. "speak no more to Me on mas matter. But go up to the top at Mount Plsgah and look to the nest and the north and the south and the east. and you will see the Promised land with your eyes, but you shall not go over Jordan," Ar- rival was not for Moses. but just look at the way he shaped human ciiriracicr and destiny by what he icrcivcd from God and did for mm in the process. ,

Isn't this one of the common rrpcrlellceb of men? We plan to do great things and expand our -rorgies in working out the plan. out somehow we fail to achieve what we designed. "What glowing nrrams I have had of sermons I meant to deliver," said Henry Ward Beecher, "but how fiat they sound- rri when I tried to put my ideas mm words!" Yet Beecher's per- -ulcnl, effort to express great znnughts in L mmoni r ” and to Hi. the ordinary man's under- running to their level made him or far the greatest orator of his tiny. So often folks in middle life remark: "What dreams I had in my youth of what my career was ill be. and look at me now!" But i1ir's real question is: What did mu aim at and how did you strive lo" the realization of your pur- :. 97

Robert Browning has written:

"All I could iiever be.

All men ignored in me. '.This was I worth to God." The unfulfilled aspiration which

inund expression in deeds of grace anti goodness along the way is of- wn a good man's best self. Laments of this sort remind us of the career of William Wilber- iurce. the champion of the emanci- ivafloll of the slave in the British House of Commons. At the age of :2: lie was converted to Evnngelical Christianity under the influence of a former teacher who went with him on a holiday in Nice. Immed- mvriy he flung himself with fiery om-rg,v into the service of the ('hrist who had claimed him; the

variety and range of his activities almost stagger oneis imagination. But his over-mastering enthusiasm was for the abolition of slavery. and at every opportunity in Par- liament he described the horrors of the slave trade and pleaded for its abolition. That strong spirit was housed in a trail body, and once. when he rose to speak. a vis- ltor thought him so insignificant that he turned to leave the House. But the speaker's first sentence or- rested his attention so that he had to hear him through. and said ai- terwards that as Wilberforce got into his subject. he seemed to rise to the stature of a giant. Wilber- force died in July, i833. and ex- actly one month later the Emanci- pation Bill was passed. Arrival was not for lum either; he had- seen his Promised Land from the Mountain top of vision but he could not enter it. But on the way he struggled toward his objective, and the memory of his ideal of the rights of men is one of the strong- est bulwntks of freedom in the heart and conscience of his race.

This has been the experience of many of the great souls of history. one can never get away from the pathos of Livingstone's failure to discover the sources of the Nile. A New York newspaper sent Henry M. Stanley into the heart of Africa. to find Livingstone, Stanley found him and offered to bring him back home. Livingstone declined to re- inrn then. because he wanted to discover the source of the Nile in order to use the prestige it would give him to move the nations to abolish slavery. He sent this mes- sage to the world. "My blessing on anyone, Englishman. American or Turk, who will help to heal this open sore of the world."

Then that story of his death as he knelt in his tent at prayer stirred the nations to action as nothing else could have done.

There is a passage in the Epistle to the Hebrews which bears on our obligation to finish the work which our fathers began in MP8- After his roll-call of the heroes oi the faith. the writer adds: "These all, having had witness borne to them through their faith. provided some better thing concerning us. that apart from us they Should 1"” be made perfect."

Our fathers, with their great souls and narrow circumstances. laid the foundation 0 this nation ln,rlghteousness as w th the labor of their hands they turned the wilderness into a garden. Our cir- cuinstan are better and our or- portunities are richer than theirs but our advantages are the pro- duct of their toll and faith. It is our sacred obligation to finish the work which they began. They will have striven in vain if we fall to establish the principles of Govlis word in the laws and customs of our nation.

Reviews Problems Of Velerinaries Al Rotary Club

"rho veterinary profession to- day in the prevention of diseases of iho animal, works very closely with the medical profusion in raising the standard of health in we world. The rela- tionship of the two professions is coming closer and closer and the proposed esislblishment of a vet- erinary ivulblic health section of the World Health Organization in their Paris headquarters, is an indication of bills important rela- tionship," said Rotarian Dr. 0. S. Nordland. Veterinary Surgeon. to his fellow Roiarians at their week- ly luncheon at the Charlottetown

Hotel, yesterday. Like its counterpart in the medical profession. the veterin-

ary practice is very old, but the formal education of the veterinar- ian dates back only about 190 years with the establishment of a university course in animal dis- eases at Lyons, France. A hun- dred years later in the United States, veterinary education was established in New York. and in Canada in 1863 the University of Toronto added a veterinary branch which led lo the present veterinary college at Guelph.

At first the efforis of veterinar- ians were directed in a fight against lhe acute contagious dis- cases in cattle, but later and at the present time the emphasis is upon ihe control of such dis- casrs as tuberculosis and bangs disease which have taken such a" great toll and resulted in tremen- dous losses to breeders and the naiion as a whole.

Cites Discoveries

Dr. Nordlland fold of some. of of discoveries made by leaders in the veterinary profession. Ra- mon of France who is studying chicken cholera discovered the ioxoid now used in the preven- tion of diptheria in humans. An- other veterinarian siudyin-g Texas Fever proved to the world that discasc may be spread by an out- side carrier. in this case the cat- tle tick. It was a veterinarian who showed the i'elaii'onr3hip be- iween contagious abortion in cat- iie and undulan-i. fever in hu- mans. Bruce of Britain proved that the fever which decimated the garrison at Malta was caused by the use of milk from infected goats. and it is now known that a similar infection in swine is. even more virulent when trans- mitted to humans.

"As far as disease is concerned we are one people living in one world," said Dr. Nordlvand. An outbreak in one part of the world may be spread anywhere else, in a few hours. This is one of the reasons why veterinary service is not merely a matter for local concern. Today the profession is enlarging ils scope to enter the public health field. While it is not known where idiseases go when the epidemics a're halted. it is quite possible that they may be maintained in a latent form in animals. for it has been proven many limes that sicknzss is onus. cd or spread through animals or animal products to man and the number of thue diseases -which may be so transmitted is of over one hundred distinct types.

Changed Methods '

The approach of modern veier- inary science and practice has been completely changed. The emphasis is now more on nutri- tion and the veterinarian works closely with the soil chemist. plant pathologist and other agricul- tural scientists in developing con- ditions and nutrition which will ensure healthy stock.

tion which supplies the necessary amiiioodies which together with minerals and vitamins permit humans and animals to ihrow off disease. ,lt was his persondl observation. said Dr. Nordiand that in a year with poor pasture and less than normal hours of sunlight, the health of all animals suffered. The speaker also told of what (the veterinary profession was do- ing io assist breeders in artificial insemination and the development of this branch of service. He also holed that in World War I the veterinnries were chiefly used in connection with the cavalry, but d-tiring the second world war they were sent to foreign territory to cope with food infection, investi-

gate epidemiu in animals. and ensure proper food supplies, for wiiihout help from animals it

would be imaposslable to keep up morale e-Liher among our own people nor in the troubled areas of the world.
