EALTH specialists agree that copious water (lriiikliig is essential to good health. ‘

However, there is a timc for taking ' water, and that is not meal time. To drink when taking food ‘is really ‘ harmful. Water consumed then in- 1 creases the contents of the stomach, , 1nd since water is a fluid. it has at tendency to l'{lllS(‘ prr-ssuro in all directions on tlic walls of the st0m-‘ ach. As a result, the stomach lie- comes dilated. if this is continued, the musculature eventually bccomcsi weakened. Whcn the muscles lose their tone, the stomach is no longer i able to contract propcriy around ' food. it also loses its ability tot properly mix food by its uhurnlngi action. i The person who makes it a hzibit | to drink while eating always has all tendency to (ivcrczit. The food is washed down so quickly that it‘ takes more of it to satisfy thc sciisel of taste. Thcn, too, when tlic food is washed down with wntor or nny other liquid. it is not proncriy mas- ticated as it docs not remain in the mouth long enough to mix with the saliva that aids the process of di- gestion.

throughout the world, and we should take an honest pride in re- flecting on what our church has contributed to social and religious progress in Scotland and Ireland, in the United States at a formative period in their history, in Switzer- land. especially Geneva, the centre of world-wide interest today. for John Calvin it was who put Gen- eva on the map, and in all other countries where it has had free course and hs.s'been glorifiedf We should also give teaching on the system of doctrine that is em- bodied in our subordinate standard. The Westminster theology has pro- duced strong character and good citizens; and interesting and edify- lng sermons may beypreached on this theology. Religion is more than emotion. It is essentially rational, in the best sense of that term. There must be an appeal to the under- standing as well as to the feelings. This way only lie religious stability and steadfastness in the faith. Such preaching requires much study, it is true, but. the labdiir will be amply rewarded.

And of course we should give} expositions of Holy Scripture. It is of far greater interest and benefit to our people to know what thef Prophets taught. what St. Pauli taught, what Jesus was and taught, than to hear Sunday after Sunday‘ what our private opinions or pet-u sonal convictions are. ‘ . While we restore doctrinal preach-‘ ing to its proper place, we must be- ware however that our teaching be not. sectarian but Catholic or com-; prehensivc. Our Church is not a‘ sect. It is a branch of the Holy‘, Catholic Church, and we must de- precate any attempt to capture it for any sect or party. Such an at-i tempt, it would almost seem, isi being made. It is certainly bcingl made h. our Church ‘in the Unitedi States and in other Churches inl Canada and elsewhere. I wish we‘ could keep out of our pulpit voca- bulary altogether the "fundamentalist" and Let them not find any place in the Presbyterian Church in Canadan This Church is not fundamentab‘ ist; it is not modernist; it is not pre-millenial; it is not post-millen- lal; it is not mlllenial of any kindz| it is not conservative; it is not lib- eral. It is Catholic. It is com- prehensive enough to embrace all believers. whatever attitude they may take to questions that are not essential to the Christian life and faith. We are what the Moths. Church of Scotland is today and always has been; what the Protest- ant Reformers stood for; what the Westminislcr Divine set forth in their great Confession; what God has revealed to us of His truth and is continually revealing to us in these days by loyalty in our preach- lng and teaching to the Spirit of Holy Scripture as historically studied and by loyalty to our doc- trinal standard as historically in- terpreted. we shall svoid the pitfalls of party shihboleths.

Secondly, The Conduct of Pubii Worship. I feel very keenly that! as we are entering upon a new ern in our Church's history we should have something distinctive in our form of worship. and that this can best be secured by s. restoration of the traditional worship of the PresbyterianChurch and more es- pecially of the Church of Scotland. the Mother of us all. Departure from the chaste, simple and yet dignified service of our ancestors has been another contributing

ian Fear in order that the whole sound of Christian truth may be compaased. To the end that we may have a rich service. we should make careful study of such Litur- gies as John Knows “the Eucholog- ian". the Westmlnister Directory. our own Book of Common Order and the Book of Common Worship authorized for use in the Presby- terian Church of the United States in America. ' Some of our people seem to be under the impression that by using these liturgical forms we are intro- duclrig innovations. 1n reality we are simply restoring the Presbyter- ian usages which have unfortunate- ly fallen with neglect. I do nob ad- vocate a slavish use. of» these forms but I do believe that without earn- est study of them our Church wor- ship will be thin and unsatisfying. The people are qulckto detect whe- ther or not we make careful and prayerful preparation for the Sun- day service. I have had the exper- lence in recent years of the man in the pew. I can ‘remember two'Min- isters who were a. contrast in this connection. The one was casual in his services. We got the impression that he chose his hymns and Scrip- ture readings at random, and that he was improvising in his extempore

This is ii period of emergency. 1t is natural that representing one of our two Colleges I should refer to the duty of Ministers in this matter. This congregation at one or other time in its history sent a relatively large number of students to the Christian Ministry. Such names as Gordon. Lflfkifl, Inland, Arthur, Hardy, Mc- Neill, come to our minds. My contemporaries among these men were led to a decision chiefly by tho spiritual influence of Saint. Dr. A. F. Carr. By keeping the claims of the Ministry before our people. by remembering the Colleges in our public prayers, by guiding the youth in the choice of good biographical and missionary literature. we shall issue a chal- lenge to healthy young men that

couraging response. The crisis in

‘our Church's history has already i

made an effective appeal to our young men. For next Session I al- ready have my list of prospective candidates for the Ministry half a hundred names. and they are chief- ly our own boys, brought up in our
