Jesus practised xiii: pzinciplc to the uttermost limit. An inspired writer said of Him that "for the Joy set before Him He enriiired the Cross, dc- sptsing the shame." Jesus' own llill5il'llllDll of His sacrifice was the grain of wheat which, by fall- tiig into the ground and dying, reproduces itself millions of times. The l'FSllliS of His self-giving lie thus described in the Book of llevelatioii: ”I saw a great multi- iude which no man could niim- ber, out of every nation and of Ill tribes and peoples and ton- gues, standing before the throne Rev.

Salvation unto our God who sits on the throne, and unto the Lamb". The parable- germ. of the grain of wheat illus- trates in this way the miracle of history, of which we are the beneficiaries. T It has always been recognized that this spirit was expected in the individual and in his church. Parents invest all they have and are in the upbuilding of their children's character and cultiva- tion of their gifts. Teachers dis- cern possibilities in their pupils and give themselves to their dc- vclopment. Over against the to- talitarian aim at conquest and government by violence is the Church's program of the winning of the world by love to the al- legiance of the King of Love. Wherever there is an opening mis- sionaries of the Cross are found today, and wherever they bear their witness individuals and com- munities are made new. . . . The revolutionary idea in this present hour is that this is ex- pected of nations. and that nations as nations are answering the call. No nation has ever given as much as the United States has given to help to their feet neighbor nations crushed by war. and to encourage backward peoples to develop their own powers and their country's resources. Call it self-interest if you will-alt is enlightened self-in- IEFESD. Canada needs to advance along the same line. We talk largely about the development of our vast resources for the benefit of other nations in their efforts to prevent war and prepare for peace, but the first effect of all this is iii- creiise of our own wealth and the provision of employment for our people. We have "a way of llfe" that is worth challenging our youth to live and die for, but national self-sacrifice for the sake of other peoples is the only way in which that ideal can be imparted to them. But do not let the heroic drop out of our lives and thought. The harvest from the tragic seed-soiv- ing of our heroes will be reaped only in part unless it inspires our young people generally with the same heroic spirit. Our heroes, such as those we are mourning now can stand comparison with any in the world's history in their moral stature and in the nobility of their aims. Exalt. them, in home and school and church. for only by the devotion of our people can the nation really live. ..,:22:::'.2I2Z:3:I:I:'-to - go -VOl' VN0 WAS T E You Get with coal than just di in lean: there is if you not nil-treated to disarm dust. domestic sine and With Bros d'Orl HERE is quite a bit more to supplying your homo when the raw coal has been raised from the min: It's out through our Stephen:-Adannon Dry-Cleaner that eliminates all alate, slack and inferior cool. then it'- ellvered to the-dealer. .l!ur there's no some waiting until the ;Pall--and being dioap mar Bran d'Or N0 . and got the.

WiNiF'Ra'.Il'l:. wrung" Of the three species of nail found in, Canada. the Born is by far the most common. Yet. because of its choice of habitat, appearance. and cautious behaviour it is really sel- dom seen by thc average person. This is a shore bird of an unusual type that haunts cattail marshes. bogs, and patches of reeds beside rivers, where it runs in and out of the weed unnoticed. Roinemberiiig the expression. "rhin as a rail". we realm that a "laterally compressed" bird (as the bird books speak of it can easily hide among cattalls. Smaller than a Robin, the Sara is brown above and grey beneath with black on the face and a black bib resemblinl that of a male English Sparrow, and pale greenish grey legs and feet. Unlike most shore birds. its yellow bill is short, similar to a chlckcn's. The rear view reminds us of a. deer. because its little tumed-up tail is white underneath. If we had never heard of the Sora's migration. when it visits Ber- muda and winters in the West In- dies. we might imagine it incapable of fiight,.a.s we never see it in the air. It migrates by night, at such low elevations that many indivi- duals are killed by running into buildings. In the breeding grounds it only runs among the lily pads and swims well. Inquisitive by na- ture. though shy, a Sora often starts calling if a stick is thrown into the marsh. In spring its clear, plaintive. ascending ”ker-wee" can be heard both by day and- by night, and it has several other calls. This interesting bird lays an average of 10 eggs. but under fa- vourable conditions as many as it! are sometimes found in one home, woven out of dead leaves and at- tached to cattaiis. Then the mother arranges them in 2 or even 3 layers so that she may be able to cover all of them. . A baby Sora gets out of its shell in a most unusual way: by sewinz off A section instead of puncturing the shell. A tiny, wet. partly bald bit of black fluff with huge feet and toes emerges, and immediately knows enough to try and fight any interference and follow a parent. The eggs hatch one a day. and the father keeps the older children in a ”dummy nest" that has been pre- pared. . In autumn Soras change their diet from insects and mollusks to seeds. At the first frost they leave our marshes for their southern holiday resorts. where their fav-. ourite food is rice. Have Herons long legs? 1 BALTIC W. I. -T119 August n-ieglilng,-of Baltic :W.

B-readalbane, when Edith Adele, youngor daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Matheson, Emerald. became the bride of Rob- ert William, only son of Mr. Athol Rackham and the late Mrs. Rack- ham of Wheatley River. The cere- mony was performed by Rev. B.W. MacPhail. The bride looked lovely in an ex- quisitely designed off-the-shoulder dress of sky blue sheer over taffeta. She wore a. corsage of red roses. Her hat was of white swiss straw encircled with forget-mc-nots, and hand bag of matching straw. She wore .eibow length gloves which were of hand-embroidered nylon and shoes of white nylon mesh. Her only jewelry was a corn set, choker and earrings, a gift of her former pupils. Following the ceremony at recep- tion was held at the home of the bride where a number of guests were ushered to the dining room which was prettily decorated with pink and white streamers and wed- ding bell. The bride's table was cov- ered with an Indian lace table cloth and was centred with a three tier wedding cake topped with minia- ture bride and groom. lighted with white candles. Following the wed- ding supper many friends called to wish the bride and groom much happiness. Mr. and Mrs. Rackham left later for a wedding trip through the Mai-itimes and have since taken up residence in Wheatley River where the groom is a prosperous farmer. For the past year the bride was engaged as teacher of Brookfleld School. For travelling the bride wore a figured nylon sheer with white ac- , cessories and beige briefer. Previous to her marriage the bride was given a miscellaneous shower at the home of her parents. she was escorted by Audrey Todd to a. tastefully decorated chair to the strains of the Wedding March played by Mrs. George Dunning. The gifts were carried in by Miss Irene MocLeod and Miss Dorothy Matheson, cousins of the bride. They were opened by Miss Freda Hickox and Miss Doris Nicholson. the names and verses read by Miss Leone MacKny and Miss Norma Haslam and the gifts were arrang- ed on the table by Miss Shirley Dunning. Edith thanked her friends for their lovely gifts and good wishes and expressed the hope that they would all visit her in her new home. Everyone departed following - re- freshments served by her girl friends wishing her every happi- ncss. While in Halifax Mrs. Herbert Matheson and Mrs. John Wolfe were joint hostesses to a shower given in the bride's honor in the spacious home of Mrs. Wolfe. Mrs. Matheson escorted the bride to the tastefully decorated living room which was decorated with pink and white streamers, willie wedding bells, and white flowers. Hilda Bradley played the bridal chorus and Stella Richardson read the V6I'SBS'0I'l the gifts which were brought in by Mrs. Wolfe. The bride thanked everyone for their kindness and lovely presents. A de- licious lunch was served by the hostesses assisted by Mrs. John Cireenough and Miss Elsie Nicholle. Everyone departed wishing the bride every good wish. N CLINTON W. I.- On Tuesday evening. August 5th, the Clinton W. I. held their regular meeting at the home of Mrs. George and Willard Riley. In the absence of the president the vice- president, Mrs. Sterling MacKay took charge. .

To prove this, entire petrified trees have been dug out of coat pits. some years ago. miners working in a Pennsylvania coal-mine came upon a petrified tree stump of con- I siderable sine. Astrographlc survey of the hea- vens show that there are over 40, 000.000 stars near enough to the earth to be photographed. Yet it is a surprising fact that even on the clearest night no more than 2, - 000 are visible at any time to the l sharpest eye. Ever hear of longevity clothes? such clothes are provided by many Chinese in their lifetime, and most people have them cut out and sewn I by a very young girl, wisely cal- culating that, since such a person is apt to live many years, a part of her longevity passes into the clothes thus keeping Father Time at bay for a longer period titan what he'd reckoned. j Among the grpve clothes there- is one robe that merits special mell- tion. It is a long silken gown of deep blue color with the word- 'I..ongevity" embroidered all over it in threads of gold. To present an aged person with one of these lovely robes, is esteemed by the Chinese as an act of filial piety and a de- licate mark of attention. p This magnificent garment is worn only on very special occasions and the wearer then absorbs into his body its blessed influence. Brief- ly. f.hnt'li the story behind the Chin ese longevity clothes 0 C When the Chinese people want rain bad they make a paper dra- gon to represent the rain god, and carry it about in processions; but if no sky Juice comes the dragon is torn into shreds and tatters. Some- times they threaten to beat the god if he does not give rain; sometimes they publicly depose him from the" rank of deity. On the other hand. the god may get promotion if there is plenty of rain. The Province of Nan King suf- fered a severe drought in 1710. The god simply refused to give rain so the viceroy of the province had, this unfeeling deity shut up in his i shrine and seals placed on the door. ,' That did it! Cut off from his base of supplies, the idol had no choicc-' but to surrender at discretion. - Rain soon began to fall, and the! people were so happy about it that the god was restored to his for- mer place among thc deities. But it sometimes happens that the rain god goes all out for a wet. period. Such was the case in April of 1888 when the Mandarin: of Canton prayed to the God Lung-1 Wong to stop the rain or else. Well, Lung-Wong turned a deaf ear tot the peoples prayers and as a result found himself in the lock-up for five days. This did the trick. The rain stopped and Lung-Wong gain- eci his liberty. C When the Siamese need rain, they set out their idols in the hot sun. If they want dry weather they take the roof off the temple and let the rain pour down on the gods. This thorough wetting usually in- duces them to grant the wishes of their worshippers. , when the rice crops are in the grip of a drought tne governor of the affected area goes in great state to a Pagoda and prays to Buddha for rain. After this he adjourns to a place back of the Temple where a dummy figure has been set up. Soon the air is filled with music, beating drums and what have you; and goaded on by their drivers, the elephants charge the dummy and trample it under their feet. After this Buddah gives rain.
