NELSONS PRAYER.

JELLICOES PRAYER l

THIS is a tremendous prayer which ' the men on British warships hear as they thunder into battle:-

“O most powerful and glori- ous Lord God. the 10rd of hosts, that rulest and command- est all things: ‘Thou sitteet in the throne Judging right. and therefore. we make our will?“ to Thy Divine Majesty in this our necessity, that Thou wouldst take the cause into Thine own hand and Judge between us and our enemies. Stir up Thy slrength. and come and help us; for Thou givest not always the battle to the strong, but (amt save by many or by few. O. lei not our sins now cry against us for vengeance. but lleur us, Thy poor servants. begging mercy, and imploring Thy help. and that- Thou wollldst be a'defence unto us in the face of the enemy. Make it appear that Thou art our Savi- our and mighty Deliverer. ‘Through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen."

That was the moving prayer our heroes heard at Trafalgar. under Nelson: it was the prayer used nth the battle of Jutland. under Jelli-l me‘ n must have been a Stirrmglthat the farm affords the surest

——-—<o->——i FROM FARM T0 CITY

note that in the Province of Ontario, one of the largest and wealthiest provinces in the Domin- ion, the same complaint is heard as from’ the smaller provinces of the continuous trek from farm to city. Ontario has abundance of good ag- ricultural land. also a wealth oi minerals unsurpassed anywhere on the continent; yet in the best agri- cultural territory there are vacant Ifarms with buildings and equipment llying idle. An effort is now being .n1ade to induce British immigrants Ito come and settle on those vacant farms. but so far little success has attended the effort. What is the cause of this ever» listing flow from country to city? It ls freely admitted on every hand

the marriage contract in Quebec or Ontario can only be effected by the Parliament of Canada, while in all other provinces divorce proceedings are c- ducted by the courts. As the two more populous provinces con- tain more than half the people of the Dominion. it follows that Par- liament ls cumbered with a vast amount of business with which it is unfitted to deal. And hitherto the burden of investigation, hear- ing evidence and deciding there- upon in the first instance has fall- en upon the Divorce Committee o! the Senate. As a matter oi course a divorce bill after having passed the Senate must also pass the House of Commons in order to become effective.

Ontario would prefer t0 have a divorce court and The Mail and Empire tells that "but for" the al- most solid vote of Quebec's repre- sentatives in the Senate and inthe House of Commons the bill to con- stitute an Ontario Divorce Court would certainly have passed three sessions ago." As it turned out, the Senate passed the bill. but no ac- tion upon it was taken by the House of Commons. Last year 748 divorces were granted in Canada by the various authorities. judicial and parliamentary. as compared with 608 in i926. Of the 748 divorces granted last year. 182 in Ontario and 13 in Quebec, a total of 195, were passed by Parliament and 553 were granted by the {courts in other‘ provinces.

fought with Nelson.

In view of the approaching Traf- algar Day Celebration, we quote from "The 'I‘rue History of the War." the state of feeling found in the British Navy at the Battle of Jutland:

“In their revelation of the fine spirit shown by the officers and men of the Royal Navy. the details and incidents of the battle were most inspiring. The confidence which the whole Fleet had in its com- manders. Sir John Jellicoe and Sir David Beatty. had never been ex- celled at any period in our navel history. Oi the Commander-in- Ohiei. the Archbishop of York had written:--

‘I lei‘. tile Grand Fleet shar- ing to Lil:- full the admiration. affection. and confidence which every officer and mun within it feels for its Commander-in- Chief, Sir John Jellicoe. Here assuredly is the right man in the right place at the right time. His officers give him the most absolute trust and loyalty. When I spoke of him to his men I el- ways ielt that quick response which. to a speaker, is the sure sign that he has reached and touched the hearts of his hear- ers. The Commander-in-Cllief —quiet, modest, courteous. alert. resolute. holding in firm control every part of his great fighting engine-has under his command not only the ships; but the heart 0f his Fleet.‘

“As for Sir David Beatty, every incident in his career. and they had been both many and glorious. had pointed him out as one of the men to command the fleets of England li ever she was engaged in a great naval war. The affair in the Hell- goland Bight. the action oiI the Dagger Bank, and other episodes had inspired feelings which were amply confirmed by the great ac- tion ofI the Jutland coast. What his men thought of him was well typified in the answer of a sailor who was asked, Just after the bat- tle, if the seamen had full confi- dence in their leader: ‘Confidence in David?‘ he replied; ‘why, we would all go to Hell for David‘.
