We are distressed by the con- fusion of our time and the dark outlook before us. The best our statesmen can offer us is nega- tive--s. continuance of the pres- ent truce between two irrecon- cileable ideals or ideologies. Bu: Christ is in action in the events of the hour. We may not be able to see His hand in present day movements ibut we know that when He does not rule. He over- rules. That is. when men refuse to bow to His authority. He over- rules their opposition to His own ends. , There is R goal before Chrlstis mind toward which He is always working. He gave His life for the world and has not forgotten or forsaken it. We are not lost in a jungle; we are on the road to an and chosen for us by our Lord. And that end or objective cannot but be good when it is fixed in pl... the mind of the Lord of all.

History is not just a meaningless-tragic jumble of events, but the arena in which God is at work." I I 0 Here then is an element in our hope. God is in command; He is active in world affairs. al- though we may not discern the direction in which His power is moving. "We have but faith; we cannot know." But, when we . we have the assurance that "He will keep what we com-

mit to Him against that day." Meanwhile. He has given us otir part to play. We do know the

claims of Love and Truth and Right, and what we do must be consistent with the e (is we . We know the calms of and our love answers His And this confidence and commission both strengthens us for our work here and also lifts our eyes above this world to the eternal destiny for which Christ claims His own.

They tell us that roads are hard to maintain be- . cause the earth is so rich and . loamy. But the Canadian Govern- ment has promised another stretch of tho trans-Canada highway. and that will make travel a joy through the country of Anne of Green Gables. This is a land that it almost equally divided between the de- scendcnts of the Scots and of the Irish. In the main, the Scot; an Protestant. and the Irish solidly : Catholic: yet Just to prove how

Probably nine out of ten people simply like it for granted (if they think of it at all) that Hamlet lived and that there was a detective named Sher- lock Holmes and that sir John nlytair really roisterad back than in Merry !lngland.- William Tall is, of course. one fictional character who actually worked his way into history. ha Cenah I came uroaa the trail of Evangelina and Anne of Green Gablea Hen anyone any doubt that those two charming oharaotetra or fiction main lived?
