l`0l)ll'S GOSPEL

There's a joy-

’l‘o vot’ries of publicity unknown-

To hear the still small voice of con-‘

science speak- |

In Wi!iSD'I`iI\g plaudits to the silent

soul.

Here in a not-shell is the secret of

Christmas joy and happiness. It is more fully set forth in the

following, which will, no doubt, bel more or less familiar to most of our, readers:

Though we speak with tongues of- men and of Angels, and have not charity, we are become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. l

And though we have the gifts oil

prophecy, and understand all myster-` ies, and all knowledge; and though we have all faith, so that we could move mountains. and have not char-I ity, we urs nothing.

And though we loestow all ourlgoods

,to feed the poor, and though we give .our bodies to be burned, and have not charity, it prorlteth us nothing.

Charity siiflereth long, and is kind,

charity envieth not; charity vaunt- eth not itself; is not puffed up;

llntli not behave itself iluseemly,

seeketh not her own, is not cnsily provoked. tliinketb no evil;

Rcjoiceth not in iniquity, but re-

jolceth in the truth; '

Bellreth all things, believeth all

things, hopeth ull things, en- dureth all things;

Cllr-.rity never faileth.

For this is the message that we

have heard from the beg uning, that we should love one another!

Whoso hath this world’s goods,und

seeth his brother hath nerd, and shutteth up his bowels of compass- ion from him, how dwclleth love in him?

Let us not love in word, neither in

tongue; but in deed and in truth.

This is the eleventh commandment

and the lesson for Christmas day.

These are the English arts, these we

profess,

'l`o be the same in misery and suc-

cess;

To teach the lawless law, assist the

good

To relieve the wretched, and subdue

me orsrefllilllisr

Therehas been a good deal of talk,

mischievous talk too, about an all- eged glut in the oyster market and a consequent difficulty in selling Prince Edward Island oysters in Montreal and other Canadian cities.

The fact is that no .market in Can-

ada, this or any other year, has been so supplied that there was no room for Prince Edward Island oysters at about double the price paid for any other variety.

It is quits true that the Montreal

ican oysters. American dealers went int

. to 10 United states oysters, Prince Edward shoe maker. or Claylwrt. Alnwick. and

Island Malpeques and Curtain Island

uw gg oysters were sold in these same mar- of the Duke of Northumberland for

any other Canadian market being so_

‘of absurdity. It is quite possible that

ciently large crop to make an Impress-

Any talk about the Montreal or

gluttsd as to have no room for Prin-. ce Edward Island oysters is the acmc

Montreal dealers during the unusually warm weather in September and Oct- ober, when already stocked with Uni- ted Stntes oysters, may have refused to handle Malpeques, a course which common business prudence would dic- tate; lt is possible also, that for this reason small lots of Malpeques were begging for purchasers, but it must not be forgotten that this was he- cause of the scarcity, not the abund- ance of Mnlpeques.

There will be ii demand for Malpe-

que oysters ns long as they can be grown for they are admittedly the heat oysters in the world. To ensure a market for them, however, they must he produced in sufficient quali- tity to supply the market. lt is con- fidently hoped thut on the beds now under cultivation and on the areas still to be leased, enough oysters will be grown to supply nt least our ,own Canadian markets. Should there he a surplus the whole world is opcu to buy them for nowhere else in the world have oysters of equal flavor and lusciousness been produced.

THE SCli00LBOY lil Cllil\Dl

“The Sclioolboy in Canada" is the

title of li book recently published in England, the author of which, Cyril Fitz-Gerald, made a tour of Canada for the purpose oi procuring at first hand such information as "would en- iible the intending emigrant to re- rilize beforehand something of the country, its people, its llinds and its laws.

The author deals fenrlessly and

plainly with the subject, treating the country first as a whole and nftcr.` wards by provinces. ill- ' Speaking generally he says “There is, in short, no profession, no occu- pation or calling, which fi young mnn cannot, adopt in Canada with better prospects than can be profi- ered him at home. Ho long as thc new-comer is willing and anxious to adopt himself to all phases of Can- adian life-to work as the Canadian, to think as the Canadian, in short td. do as the Canadian does, then he need have no fear. He will not feel himself amongst a strange people, for.they will treat him as a brother of the old land. They will, in fact,honour him for his pluck and respect him as a member of that great empire of which they are members no less than himself.”

A chapter is devoted to each of the provinces showing its advantages

from the settlers point of view and describing in detail the industries and characteristics of each. The chapter on Prince Edward Island" is hy Mr. J. E. B. McGready,_‘Publicity Agent, and 'is written in his usual interesting and educative manner.

Arrangements are being made for

a general distribution of the issue throughout Great Britain and the hope is expressed that 75,000 copies "may find their way to those who are called upon from time to time to advise the youth of this Country (Britain) in respect to emigration to (`lanudu."
