' AERIAL MAIL SERVICE o

~.Iri view of the efforts being made here

to inaugurate an aerial service, mail or passenger or both, it is interesting to note that the United States Government is shortly to try out an aerial mail service. _.:_To relieve congestion of _traffic along the eastern seaboard Postmaster-General Burleson has advertised for bids on five., aeroplanes to deliver mail between Was- hington,_Philadelphia and New York. . .pThe~ bids will be opened at 2 o’clock on Feb. 21. The proposed service will be li- mited,” for the time being at least, to first- class mail. It is not the purpose to make thé. 'service an experimental one. Before itds definitely launched its practicabiiityl willlbe tested. Once established, it is to re- nioin in service. stf?,:_In addition to the five aeroplanes call-. ed$ffor-each capable of 'carrying 300 Ddllnds and of travelling not ‘less than 200

UNCOMMON SERVICE.

It is true. and it is a great comfort

.hat it is true, that the giving of a rlass of water can please God, and he sweeping of a room can glorify '{lm. But woe be to us if we are vontent with small service. Too ‘nuch thought oi’ little things belitt- `es. Vi'e should “attempt greatf hlngs for God." Caleb said, “Give ne this moiintain;” Mary 'broke the ilabaster box that was exceeding oreclous; the disciples left all to fol- ow Jesus, and counted it joy to suff- zr for his sake. Let us not 'be easily :ontcnt. The note of heroism should ie in our battles with sin, in our ipeaklng, in our giving, in our serv- ng. Our King deserves and expects klngliness.

was pictured as a peace-loving, non- nggressive nation in the speech of Dr. Von Kuchlmanii, the German for- eign secretary, at the concluding session of the recent conference at Brest-Litovsk. Dr. Von Kuehlmann said' the Russians should have no fear that Germany held any designs on Russia. ,

“I need only refer M. Trotzky, (tho

Bolsheviki foreign minister), to per- manent basis of the German policy which, up to the time when war with Russia was forced on the German peo- ple consisted in the preservation of good and friendly relations toward our eastern neighbors," Dr. Von Kuc- hlmann declared. _ '

Massive and proud, thy tower from

Points upward, silent, standing tall

Against the western sky: thy ruined

In thy old sides (yet have they failed

Thine ancient beauty still sercne!).l.lie

Of martyrdom bestows. If He look

Our Lord can see what Germans truly
