CROSSING THE BAR.

Tennyson wrote this poem in 1889 — his eighty-first year, wrote it one day after dinner, and said that it came to him in a moment. It is really an expressionoi his faith. Commenting on it once he interpreted it so far as to say that the pilot Iwas that divine wlsdcnn ivhicil is always guiding us. A few days before he died, he said to his son, "Mind you put "Crossing the Bar" at the end of all editions oi my poems."

Tennyson was a religious man. though he did not permit his mind in be bound by creeds. He knew his Bible. Henry Van Dykr. who was a personal friend and visited him and heard him read his poet- ry, wrote a book on the poet and had one chapter with the bead- ing: "The Bible in Tennyson." He said that there are more than four hundred references or quotations from it in Tennyson. ' .

"Crossing the Bar" is a sort oi swan song. He, like Si. Paul, is ready to go home. It. btti-ns with evening coming on. It is sunset and the evening star is in the sky. Then in a later verse the twilight deepens into dork. we are told that on the day he wrote this poem he had heard Lhe moaning of the sea and it was still in his ears, the sound rang in his head while he vras thinking of what he was to do. A "clear call" came as it came to the traxveiiers in the "Pilgrims Progress”, when they came to the "river over which there was no bridge." Tennyson was now reach- ing that river.

This poem is a prayer for a quiet passing and he got his wish. When he died his finger was on a pass- age of “Cymbeline” -—- e. passage which he had always regarded us one of the most touchingpf all Shakespeare. So for him tilere was really "no moaning of the bar when he went out to sea." "and when that. which drew from out th, boundless deep turns again home." .

When King Arthur dicd "from the great deep to the great deep he went". His own soul had come fmm the boundless deep - 11nd its origin in God.

Wihile Tennyson did not always "fix his faith to form" any one who reeds him and studies his work must mme to the conclusion that he was a profoundly religious man. Morality has several implic- ations and he recognized them - Freedcm, God, and Immortality.

He held no creed of necessity. In

the poem "Dwlutionist", he de- clares. “Hold the sceptre, Human soul, and rule thy province oi the brute." Ami at the end after all the main struggles of life have died down we hear the man say: "I hear no yelp of the beast, and the man is quiet at last"—hc has Won. The world for Tennyson would have no meaning withgut God. When his friend I-ialiem died, ‘Tennyson said, "God's fin- ger touched him and ho slept," "God was closer than breathing nearer than hands and feet." For him God was everywhere. Jesus was the “son of God immortal love." We have among others the WWII 0n the Children's hospital where a man says that the good lord Jesus ha: had his day. but the faith of a little girl gives the lie to that as she leaves her hand out from the counterpsnes that the lord may sec her as He goes up and down the wards oi pain. "In Memorian" ts full of m; ides of Immortality. He feels that h, will not lose l-lailam though he died". "Thou wilt not leave lls in the dust." is one of his signif- icant utterances on this matter. Moreover he shared with Brown- ing the belief in the "larger hope." Good will be the final goal of iii. Nothing walks with aimless feet." "Crossing the Bar" ls filled with the hope of an endless lite. Hé was 110i 891118 out to an unknown re- gion. It was a home going. The lamb of hope burned brightly. In "vastness". a late poem, we have tvwo kinds of life contrasted which indicate his scale of val- u .

es.

"He that has lived for the lust of the minute. and died in the doing it, flesh without mind;

He that has nailed all the flesh to the Ore s, till self dried out 1n the love of is kind.“

There is a story in the Gospels which exemplifies an important hierarchy of Christian values. It is the familiar story of Martha and Mary. When the Divine Master visited their little house at Beth- any, Martha busted himself with many things, with all the lrlfiins household duties attendant upon the presence oi company in the house, while Mary simply sst at the Master's feet, gazing lovingly and prayeriully into the counten- ance o! the welcome Guest.

Two types of life are represented here. Martha, always occupied, ai- ways doing something. stands for the active life; Mary, quietly wrapt. up in her thoughts, stands for the contemplative life. Surely, Martha is Justified in chlding Mary for leaving her alone to serve. So might we think, were we not re- minded that the Master commend- ed Mary for choosing the better part. In other words, action is good but contemplation is better, and Mary's choice stands as an unfor- gettable witness to the primacy of contemplation over action.

For some few centuries now. the western world has given prefer- ence to action over contemplation, thereby distinguishingdtself from the East, where contemplation holds first place.

We oi the West. take pride in being a practical people, living in a practical age. We make practic- ality an ideal, to the extent of wishing to measure all things, even truth itself, by practical results. We tend to recognize value only in that which works out in practice. Even our heroes are submitted to this test, for they must be men of act- ion, men who get things done.

Already the lives of most men are largely geared to production, while science relentlessly searches out; new sources of power disclosing undreamt-of possibilities oi still greater production.

We are a nation of builders, mechanics, operators and farmers pressingly engaged in procuring both the necessities and the lux- urles of life, but perhaps never pausing to think of the purpose and the real value of the things we do and make. The result is that sometimes we produce with- out a legitimate reason for our product or ‘without knowing how to use it for man's good and that of society. Worst oi all, our pro- ductive activity not: infrequently turns out; to be a source of harm and self-destruction rather than a blessing.

Obviously therefore what we need more than production, more than action, is vision, the deep under- standing of things in the light of eternal values which is given by contemplation ‘and reflection.

In some respects, the ancient Greeks possessed a healthier sense of values. They regarded the life

Church Noi Heated For Firsiiti Years

HAIIMAX. April 28 — (OP) .... St. Paul's Church, oldest Prol- estant church irl Canada. celeb- rates its 200th srmiversary this year along with this cobble-ston- ed port city.

For the first 50 years alter its founding. the church ‘was not heated in any way. But now it has s modem heating system and the city's Bicentenary Committee as launched an appeal for $41,000 to help pay part. of the cost of tho system.

In a history of the church, Dr. RV. Harris, chancellor of the dic- cese of Nova Sooiia, says courag- eous and hardy worshippers used fool o'er-mere, wooden boxes, dogs and heavy fur coals to keep them wann. The warmers were iron boxes filled with burning charcoal while the wooden boxes contained heated bricks.

First attempts at central heat- ing in 1796 were hot successful. Two coal-burning stoves, sent. from lmgland in 179B, gave off more smoke man heat.

It was not. until 1800 that four cannon stoves were put up, paint- ed and piped. At. first il was thought the cost of piping to carry the smoke would be too high. Two oi the cloves were loaned by General Murray, commanding officer oi’ the port's garrison.

Thoughts For Our Time By His Eminence Cardinal McGulgon (Copyright)

of the intellect as better than the active life, than the life oi produc- tion. The intellect, they thought, is the highest part of man and to live the life of the intellect is in a way divine.

But their view was not wholly correct. 1t was colored by a two- fold error. In the first place, over- stressing the primacy oi the intel- lect, they fell into the error of thinking that the human race lives for the sake of a few intellectuals, the majority of men being reduced to an inferior status.

Secondly, for the Greeks the su- periority oi contemplation was bound up with a disdain for labor. Even the work of the artist: was lacking in respectability.

But Christianity changed all this. It. transfiglucd the notion of con- templation and gave it a new mean- ing. Contemplation, for the Chris- tian, is not a seii-suiiicing intel- iectual exercise; it’ is not an end in itself: it is for the love of the one contemplated. Rather than stopping in the intellect it crosses ovcr into love.

What is more, iz-Ve even becomes its means and the knowledge ob- tained through contemplation is an experiential knowledge some- what similar, although on a differ- ent plane, to the knowledge the mother acquires oi’ her child through her love. The Christian knows that the life of the intellect is, absolutely speaking, higher. But he also knows that here below, because of the imperfect condition of our knowing, it is better to love God than to know Him. He knows that in this Iiie, what counts most of all is charity.
