Such doctrines are repudiated on every occasion that they are pre- sented to the electorate. but still tn the church courts we must. con- tinue to hear these doctrines re- hashed. I am confident that. I am expressing the majority oplnlon of laymen In stating that opposition ls widespread to such radical doc- trines and also to the evident en- deavor of such advocates to have the church mlx up In matters of stale. I Insist. that such a mIx- ture is not. conducive to thesprend of that. righteousness which exalt.- eth n nation. It has failed In the past. It wlll fall In the future.

The sermon was “over the heads" of most. of the listeners and was most disappointing to them. I have since read In the Toronto Globe and Mall that this same Dr. John Llne attended a meeting with a number of other clergyman and at which Mr. Tlm Buck, the wide- ly known and outspoken Coni- munlst was present. The object. of the meetlng, It. Is sald. was to make preliminary arrangements to start a new Farmer-Labor pollit- cal alignment. Let these gentle- men go w It. but. I assert my he- llef that we of the Marltlmes iivatit none of It. I am confident these would-be leaders of the church are on the wrong track. Thelr mission Is to spread tinrest. to create dis- sentlon, to beget doubts. and cause distraction. The people will not follow along that way. Their mes- sage Is one of gloom as against the joy and glnrlness which Is symbolic of Chrllfs Kingdom. (Bee Isaiah 35). I am, Slr, etc., J. F.
