Religion By Very Rev. George C. Pidgeon, D.D., L.L.D. First Moderator of the United Church of Canada (Copyright) I on, of the catch questions of the hour ls: What are you going to do “mug it’! You have a great, new M”; What are you going to do shout it? You believe in a certain mml principle which the world wants to ignore: What are you dam; about it? You are furiously lngfy over some injustice or harm- [u] custom which certain people are “lpportlng for selfish ends: What do you propose to do about it’! You live by a faith which all must ac- “nt in order to be saved: What m you doing to lead others to ac- 7 ggpt it. A current issue of a popular ma- gazine carried recently a thrilling ‘wry of a rescue-we haven't space [n- the story but only for what led up to it. An American clergyman “n; trying insistently to inspire ordinary folk with the idea that they rnuld by selfless acts bring ibout extraordinary changes in the world. One such effort brought out this rnsponse: What can I do? A. bugy housewife, buried in Connecti- lllt, can‘t help change the world." n, prielt "plied: t’! don't care i-l you are buried in Alaska. Drop that fooling of personal futility and fll$l try something, sometime. When vou rln you will not be alone; the ‘good Lord will be right there help- inf.‘ You" Soon after the papers carried a nnry of flagrant injustice attempt- pd hv a foreign power on American soil. and this busy mother of six children blazed into action. Every- one u-hnm she tried to kindle qckncwlfligéfi the wrong, but felt helpless in the circumstances. and m» (if them, her young lawyer- ljrfll"fll‘. said: "Sis, it isn't our bust- _.._@-.i ' To which she retorted. "lf t ui t our business. whose business is l" -a remark which had inter- riat; ‘uni consequences.

A grand-looking bird, eagle-like in oppcszllct‘, this is the odd mfim- be: of the Hawk clan. Differing from the rest in its cihoioe of food necessitates other differences, as oily, overlapping plumage and special toe structure. Also nesting in colonies is unusual, but this species sometimes does. Prcbibiy the Osprey is the easi- est Hawk to identify.

A! ll"! years went on. a danger- ous‘ situation arose in the church. ° fl Dreachéd. as Paul did, that ‘alvnmn l! ‘he Rift of God's free grace. Some People took this posi- tion: If salvation is free and is re- ceived by faith alone. a stern moral. "y is no longer necessary, because Gm! mfBlvcs the chief of sinners. 3°11". like Paul, was horrified at such B Derversion of the Gospel. He Shows. in his first Epistle that Chrlsts object in redemption was to free men from sin in order that gist’ wish! obey the will of God. hYIEl-l Purpose on Calvary is frus. trnted in every case where men pro. fess to accept Him as Saviour but f!" 1° Obey Him as Lord. Listen: ‘Evlryons who does sin do" also lawlessness. and sin is lawless. ness. That is to say. the wilful sinner repudiates the authority and government of a iust God. The union of sin and Christ in the same breast is unthinkable. Again: "Lit- tle children. let no one deceive you —he who does the right is right even as He is right. He who corn. mits sin is of the dcvil. for the devil sins from the beginning. For this end the Son of God was manifest. 9d. that He might destroy the works of the devil." In other words. you talk about your prlh. ciples: what about your actions‘? Deeds are the only true index of character You claim to be, g child of God. your soul quickened with a life divine. Well. that divine life must express itself in the conduct and service which it inspires and directs? l! your life ls of God you will do the works of God. U There is a moral order; ft is mot, ed in the nature of things. Our, own nature is constructed according | to its laws; lf we violate these laws we sin against ourselves, and "the Wiles of sin is death." Old As Humanity ‘I _'l‘here is a type of modern scien- tist. self-styled as such. who teaches that there are no absolute standards 0f right and wrong but only rules; which experience has proved con- venient in the relationships of men. Such men deceive the un- wary to their undoing. They think themselves modern, but John had the breed before him in his day. people who persuaded themselves that their superior knowledge ex- empted thcm from moral obligation. By the sharpest anfitheses he could command, John insisted that no compromise is possible between such errors and the rule of a good God. Light and darkness are ab- solutely opposed to each other, and so are truth and falsehood, right and wrong, good and evil, love and hate, God and the devil. There is no middle course; we must take our stand on the one side or the other The will of God must, therefore, govern our lives if we would live. But what are we doing about the will of God in our land? There are some political practises that we abhor; what did we do about it with our votes? ‘ The liquor traffic as constituted at present is ruining homes and persons by thousands; what are you going to do about it? We believe that free enterprise is better than other social systems; nevertheless many are helpless un- der injustice in cur free nation. What do we, responsible citizens. intend to do about it? ' The wrongs we detest will per- sist until someone takes the rc- sponsibflity of demanding that what ought not to be shall not be in a Christian land. Until our part is played in the human conflict we are not guiltiess before God. We Dffly that God's will be done on earth as it is in Heaven: ail who pray that prayer commit themselves thereby to stand for that Will WMPBVQP their powers extend. COMINFOIIM DATE The Cominfotrm.

For "The Emperor Waltz" is a king-sized romantic comedy with music, written, produced and act- ed by cinema sovereigns, which reaches a royal highness in ma- jestic settings, bright. comedy. rol- licking romance and scintillating melodies. The story is by Brackctt and Wilder, who“ respectively, produced and directed the film which co-stars Bing Crosby and Joan Fontaine. All mentioned are t - of that. select Hollywood hierarchy-Academy Award win- ners. Against the eye-filling ‘mohai- color background of the Austrian Alps and the splendiferous court of Emperor Franz Josef. “The Emperor Waltz" tells the gay story of a brash young American phono- graph saiearnan who includes a beautiful countess in his territory. He scandallzes the court. by daring to make love to her; she lifts the n1 eyebrows a. little higher by firing to return that love. It-‘s a tuneful love affair that runs into aristocrtaic obstacles; in fact, it is on the verge of break- ing up when a concurrent. romance between Blngs mutt. Buttons. and Joan's pedigreed poodle, Scheher- zade. cutely proves that love is thicker than blue-blood. with the aid of the dulcet Crosby croon. Bing high-pressures Joan into buying his line, utilizing his full bag of vocal tricks, in- gludlng his old "boo-hoo-hoo" and some new yodeling. l-ls sings three numbers for which Johnny Burk-s wrote new lyrics: "The Emperor Walls." "Friendly Mountains" and "The Kiss in Your Eyes." An oldie, "I Kiss Your Hand, Madame" is sure to have a re-blrth of pop- ulsrity after folks hear Bing war- ble it. and a lot of people are go- ing to emulate Crosby's whistling of ‘The Whistler end l-iis Dog.” “The Emperor Waltz" is truly a great movie. It's been many years The since such magnificence has been seen on the screen. isanvnsr Panama's-sons Younker-Macfadyen Wedding At Trinity fihurch A pretty wedding took place- in Trinity United Church on Wednes- day.
