SPIRITUAL CONDITIONING Pi-obebly Canada was never pmuder of an athlete than she has the day that J. D. Mari-ow iron the quarter-mile from a group of British athletes who were to lug Canada and the United tales. Up to that point the visitors had taken every went. The huge crowd looked 3.; with both admiration and dis- uppoinunent. ' when the quarter-mile was announced the visitors were warned from the crowd that this was to be their Waterloo. Al. the start of the race Mor- ,,,,.- was pocketed. but soon got me, and when he came round me curve and down the home stretch easily ahead of all com- ietitcrs that throng went wild. :0 did many throukhout the land. cnnade had at least one runner inn could compete with the mist the Empire could produce. The eyes of the British Cam- mnnwealth of Nations have just men on Vancouver. host to the Bzullsh Empire games. Each na- inii had its athletes trained and (mad for the various events. .ll'ld those were highly honored iiilu were selected to carry the colors of their homeland. A physical director of the vi-U.-unto Y. M. C. A. used to take 115 boys to the various events, and .5 parting word was:--"Chin up. .,,.3-5, and give them all you've -it." hlwe may be sure that every one ... these last games save all he had as he rim. or lumped. 01' srnrov in other ways for his muni,ry's honor. Each was com- personally to the I prin- rlpicb of true sportsmanship be- fore the events began. and we honor both losers and winners Iur observing them. o 0 st. Paul always drew his illustrations from places wherd strength and skill were exerted lo the utmost. and he insists that success in such tests does not lust happen. The contest is prepared for long in advance. To be in condition the athlete must exercise rigorous self-denial and put forth persistent effort. in his eating and drinking and sleeping and training everything is subordinated to fitness for the particular contest in view. so the great Apostle writes:-- Do you not know that in a race all the runners compete, but only one i-eceiverthe prize? So run that you may obtain it. Every. athlete exercises self-control in (in things. They do it to receive a perishable wreath. but we are an zmperishsble. Well I do not run aimlessly. I do not box as one beating the air; but I pommel my JMIY and subdue it, lest after ,llPHCIllIlg to others I myself lllnllid be disqualified (I Corin- .illRIl5 9: 24-27). His reference is, of course. to the famous Isthmian games near Corinth, and his fear. as he ap- plies the illustration to himself. is not of being ruled off the track: (win or lose. he is in the me to stay) but of being in such poor condition that he has not the shadow of II chance of suc- SE55. 0 The true spiritual athlete must keep himself in condition as rigorously and vigorously as the runner who aims to break the record in a race. Dr. Msltbie Beibcock, that gracious genius who gave us the hymn. This Is My Father's World. and other poems vibrant with spirit. was, once offered a box seat for an enter- tainment regarded with suspicion by many. He was an, artist in' that particular field himself. but he answered with thanks: "I dare not accept lest my being there arove a stumbling-block to some- wne whom I am called to lead to God." The spiritual athlete is like the soldier who must he Wily for surprise attacks and ainbushes as well as for battles vlzmned and prepared for by all. To be caught off guard may be hist as fatal as to run back when life-work a ilwusand years from now." St. Paul felt that way about 111; work. As he sat in prison with Nero's sword hanging over mg head by a hair. he took a glance back over his career as an Apostle of Christ. and his first thought was:;tI have fought the good flght." g Ige was satisfied with the cause in which his life had been in- vested. As he went on he found three other grounds of consola- tion. He was in the race to the finish. In the race to which we referred in opening this study, one runner dashed to the front in starting at a pace which he could not keep up, and was be- hind at the end: Paul's supreme triumph was on the home-stretch. Second. he had observed the rules of the game. To win by trickery or at the expense of others was to him unthinkable Third there was the Victor's wreath awaiting him which Christ in person would bestow. so he writes;-"I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. l-lenceforth there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness which the Lord, the righteous Jucke will award to me on that Day, and not only to me. but also to all who love l-(is appear- ing" (II Timothy 427.8). i voiui w. M. s. Mrs. Gordon Crockett was hos- tess to the York W. M. 8.. for their monthly meeting. The presi- dent opened the meeting with call to worship. The theme for the meeting was "Your Family and the World" The hymn "For the Beauty of the Earth" was sung. followed by a prayer of General Thanksgiving. Scripture readings were given by Mrs. Eiiner Brown. Mrs. Leigh Vessey and Mrs. Elby Hardy. A reading by Mrs. Bproule and the hymn "For Around the World Thy Children Sing this song" closed the worship period. The business period opened with roll call answered by nine mem- bers and five visitors with a verse of scripture. Twenty-five sick calls were reported. Mrs. Iii. Brown thanked the members for cards sent to Mr. Brown. The treasurer. Mrs. W. Coake gave a report of the ice-creun festival. A goodly sum was realised. Three visitors from Montreal were welcomed to our meeting. Miss Hamilton spoke a few words of greeting. and Min Noni: brought geetings from the Angli- can Church in Montreal. She then gave an interesting and informs- tive addrus on India and the work being carried on there by the dif- ferent churchee. Thanks were ex- pressed to the speakers the meet- ing was brought to a close by the Mispah benediction. Dainty re- freshments were served by the hostess and a social time enjoyed. FAMILIAR STRAIN!

A blind per- son has to have a mental image of the city or town he lives in so that he can 'get from place to place. and remembering directions is the only way. - The trouble comes when he or she tuma around to go to the other way. because then everything is re- versed. And strange but true, Mr. Green is blind himself, but he has been teaching the blind to see with their canes and ears and hoses for almost a quarter of a century. He travels all over Canada for C. N.

The cane is. of course. the one with which most persons are familiar. Although few of us know this, the cane is used in con- junction with the feet, and not alone. There are shops of B. certain type which give off odors peculiar to them. A blind person's sensitive nose usually can pick these out and then of course he knows his position to a certain degree at least. A blind person will also cock his ears at the sound of high-heel shoes, knowing the wearer to be in women. And so a blind person can orient himself by various sounds. , "We learn som thing new every day," Mr. Green s d, and that ap- plied eapeclally to persons who must get along minus eyes." The ablest student of this techni- que is Miss June Lanson, darkroom technician at Victoria Hospital und- er Miss Margaret McMillam, who is practically blind herself. so you see, navigation of the blind rests on remembering direc- tions.

First it was in the field of trade, with Andrei Gromyko being taken away from the United Nations to conduct a great campaign as am. bauador to London. in which he was partly successful. Since the lndc-Chinese "Munich at Geneva," plain old - fashioned backslapping, after the fashion of a typical promotional cocktail party. has become the motif.

CARPETS LAID OUT Now the red carpets have been' rolled out and the vodka has been flowing for the party of British labor party leaders which stopped on route to Peiping on a mission, at Peiping's invitation. The bsckllspping reached a high peak Wednesday night, producing the comment from one of the British party that Malenkov was earnestly seeking peaceful settle- ments wlth the West. That's the regular line the Soviet propagand- ists have been trying to sell in their effort. to prevent formation of the European Defence Com- munlty. The Supreme Soviet, Russia's rubber stamp Parliament. has ex- tended an invitation for a visit by a British parliamentary delegation for the first time since the cold war began. The Russians have produced this new program toward Britain at a most favorable time for them. The revelations of what h y d r o g e n bombs can do sent Britain into a great flap. Already well aware of what could happen to her in is modern war. she has just about reached the attitude of no war at any cost. It causes her to grasp at hopes for co-existence. But there's one thing wrong with the Russian backslapping program, aside from sheer cynicism. Britain is not the city editor of the West- ern alllance. The United States is The United States insists on deeds. not backslspplng. FIND IIILICS S'IOOK1-IOLM.
