Over the weekend the first Ger- man air raid on merchant ships travelling in mnvoy was reported. Four aircraft were shot down and no damage was done. That ven- turc can be chalked up in the Ger- man air commands experimental ledger as a failure. Opposite it, however. will be the success achiev- cd in last week's air attacks on warships in the Firth oif Forth. Having regard to the reputed strength of the German air force series of bombing raids dil- ecied against Great Britain since the start of the wnr resemble the light but quick first round blows of a skilled boxer feeling out a dangerous opponent, seeking w spots, testing out the effect different punches. ll and when the full fury of Germany's air power is launched against the British Isles the at- tacking planes Will be numbered in hundreds and not in dozens. But bombing planes are costly ma- chines aud the men who operate them arc even more difficult to replace. Before sending over hun- dreds of bombers in successive ivzives it is part of wisdom to gain an approximate idea of how many may be expected return arid how effective their attack will be. During his European campaigns more than a century ago the Duke of Wellington was fre uently chided for his consei-vat sm in avoiding decisive engagements with the enemy. l-lis answer was England had only one army and if it was lost the was" was lost, that enemy armies could be replaced but not England's. Germavly is in a. somewhat sim- ilar position now with regard to its au- force With the man-power and resources of the British Empire being harnessed for air warfare re- placements in German air wer will be slower and more di ficult than in British air power.

Qcl. 2O -LCP (labial- Ex ressed belief of the Briilih war off ce that Germany intends to use poison gas recalls the heroic stand of the Canadian troops against that deadly weapon when it was first used n the last war. The wzir office has. based its belief on German allegations that Brit- ain supplied Poland with poison gas. This has been categorical y de- med by the British government. The prelude to the use of asphyx- iati gas in the first Great War was he false German statement of April, 1915. that Britain had used gas-filled shells and bombs. Five da s later-April 22—Germaiiy used th weapon for the first time. For a hrinowing week Canadians north-east of Ypres bore the full brunt of German chemical war- fare. Their stalwart resistance pre- vented a break-through of German forces which might have had ser- ious consequences. Had the Germans smashed the Allied line they might have reached the Belgian coast and eventually gained command of the Belgian side of the Straits of Dover. 7W‘ Oil ontusliyh llovour and Toombs acted as chair- Smallman sang the solo "Face ROY to Face" and the ch “Steal Away to Je oir sang sweetly, sul." lb WWII lib 1h " "Ii uouh:¢':'u=i:$'m¢ 0.9:.‘ liev. Ilr. Laird ; Addressesiarge Congregation A very large congregation at Trinity United Church on Sunday morning had the privilege of hearing o. very eloquent address by Rev. Robert La . D., LlD. Canada. Dr. Laird preach and has a first hand know- ledge of Christian missionary work in Eastern Lands. Dr. Laird a son of Prince Edward Island, has held numerous important offices in the government of the United Church of Canada and his splendid work has won him many honors. In his address. Dr. Laird ex- pressed the eat pleasure that was his in be rig once again on Prince Edward Island and the joy that he felt in seeing ‘Trinity Church weathering in such g fine manner the difficulties of these trying days. Speaking as one who is well acquainted with the finan- cial problems of church life. Dr. Laird strongly commended the cam- palgn to increase the givings of Church members especially those to the Missionary and maintain- ence Fund. Passing on to the broader phase of the problem. "are all the money been poured into the East justi- fied?" the speaker quoted E Stan- ley Jones’ words "Every reform that has come to India, is to my certain knowledge. pointing direct- ly to Christ." and the testimony of a non-Christian Hindu-"Chris- tlanlty has done ten times more for India than has the British Government for it ‘:15 washed the inner thinking of the people." Everything that I saw in the East, said Dr. Laird. and I went there in a critical spirit. was in complete support of these two statements. Of the many incid- ents that befel Dr. Laird he put forth two to illustrate this. In the first he told how he had seen o. native of India. who had formerly been a bandit chieftain, head of a band of cutthroat robbers, stand forth and testify of the change that had taken place in his heart since he learned the Jesus way of life. In the second he related how a group of Chinese women hid him that the land on ‘which i-he mission- ary's bungalow now stood hzid once been wa=te and rocky ground but was now beautiful with flowers and fruit trees but that the change in the hearts of men had been e- qually wonderful so that they had been altered by the spirit of the master from wastelanrls of gamb- ling and vice io beautiful parks of klnclners and goodwill. Thus Dr. Laird showed that a new spirit was oi) work in the East, s. o irit of truth that set men free an caused them to work and pray for the coming of the era of peace and goodwill. This spirit, said the speaker, more than all governments. Dl‘ the force of all annies will bring in the age of brotherly love, in all the world whenrnen shall live together in the perfect peace and harmony of true followers oi.’ Jesus. Col. G. Eliot Full speaking on be- half of the Board of Stewards gave a brief butponcise statement of the financial position of the Church. At this service the choir sang the anthem "0 How Amiable Are Thy Dwellings" virltlq splendid effect. At the evening service Rev. Hugh Mlllar spoke on the subject of giv- ing. basing his word; on the story of the widow's l 1e. in his address he told how giving is an important means of judging character and Christian living. _ In addition l0 a fine anthem bv the choir, this service was high- lighted by a delightful solo "O Rust In The Lord" splendidly sung by Miss Audrey Gillis. Dr. Laird was born at Malpeque, P. E. I.. the son of the late Rev. Robert Laird. His earlier educa- tion was received at the Banning Grammar schol and at Pictou Academy. At Queen's University, Kingston, he won first clas; lion- ours in classics and mental and moral philosophy. When the Un- ited Church of Canada was organ- ized in 1925 he was appointed treasurer of the Church. In addi- tion to his financial duties, he is an active member of the Executive of the General Council of i-he United church. He has participated m the work of other important boards and committees and has represent- ed the United Church of Canada on many significant occasions, not on- ly in Canada but also in Great Bri- t-ain and the United States.

Rev. Dr. R. Moorhead Legate delivered a timely and encouragin sermon in St. James Church ya rdoy fore- noon, taki as his text Numbers XXI. 4-“ 6 soul of the people was much discouraged because of the way." These pages of Jewish history reflect in a remarkable way the events that are taking place these modern times. History, as it always does, continues to repeat ziself. Let me try and show how this story from which we take our text. talhes with tbe experience through which we axe called upon to pass in these days of war. The Israelites had almost completed that tedious and adventurous march of forty years acmm the (lesert. which was to culminate in their possession of the land 0f Canaan which God had promised to give them for their own. Be- tween them and their goal, "the land of milk and honey". there lav only the little province of Edom. through which ran a good, straight road leading to the bord- ers of their promised land. But the Efiomites halted them at their border and refused to allow them passage through their territory. This was a sore knock to the Is- raelites, for they had been count- ing on getting through to their detination by the short, mad that Edom would have given hem. And the u ot Was that the~ had to take long. rough, moun- tainous. round about road that led round Edom. not through it, to get to Canaan. We can imagine their dlscomfiture. which is so simply and strongly described in our text, "The soul of the people was much discouraged because of the way." And is that not just the position in which we find our- selves-that we have to take the bad wad instead of the good road, the long road instead of the short road. For twenty years have we not been hoping and praying that the world was, at last. on the way to a settled peace; that the les- sons of the Great War had bitten so deeply into the world's con- sci0usness that life ought to be able to flow on evenly and quietly for the future, and that the ploughshare shOili-d take the place of the sword? And then. almost nbniptb’, we have had our whole direction changed. our hopes shat- tered, our plans for ~a peaceful, orderly world defeated. And we “are much discouraged in our soul because of the way." I God's Teaching Now what I want you to do with me this morning is to try and our discouragement under the llgh of God's teaching, and see, when we have done that. whether there is something in His teach- ing that will help us to face the hard, and possibly long, road with hopefulness and courage. What discouragement? It is a state mind which gets hold of us when we~ are thwarted in some purpLosse that we set ourselves to aocomp h. We wanted peace: we worked for peace: we left no stone unturned in our efforts to avoid and avert 9m war, But now we are plunged into a struggle the magnitude and re- sults of which we hardly dare to anticipate. and “our 5011i is dis- couraged because of the way." Now one of the first Bible teach- ings about disoouragements is that they are good for us sometimes. It seems odd to say that. but if you think it out you will see how true it is. If we got our own way in everything, if life were altogether plain sailing for us, we would lose far more than we would gain. In the way in which God sees it wise to order things, some of the bar- gains we make have to turn out bad bargains. some of the lans we contrive have to turn ou all wrong, some of the hopes we cherish have to vanish into thin air. it is a bitter business some- times; but God is a wise physician, and. in His compounding of the cup of life, He knows the ropcr proportion in which to mx the bitter and the sweet ingredients; and He is guided in the mixing by one determination, that He may make us better. truer, braver. kinder men and women. If the cup of life were sweetness only we would be utterly spoiled, both in ourselves and toward others. We would lose the qualities that go to make character in its best mean- ing. There would be no oppor- tunity for the ractice of sym- pathy, and unsel ishness. and sac- rifice. And love itself would be in imminent danger of extinction. The ' Right Spirit As I look around at the events that me discouraging us today. at the long. rough way that seems to lie before us. l have not a doubt that, at back of it all. there lids a something that can make us better, stronger men and Women, if we only take our medicine in the right spirit. Then another thought that comes to us about discouragement, when we look at it under the light of God. is that we should guard against inking exaggerated ViFIWS of our dlswuragements. Discour- agements tempt us to do that, and such temptations are hard to re- sist. But when we give in to them we lose what we ca.ll "morale". that stale of mind which keeps alive a high spirit. and hope and confidence. Oncc the morale of an army deserts it that army is as good as beaten: and it really is the CiYiiifiIl morale that is the bulwark of the military morale. One of the highest duties of our citizenship iii these trying hours is to refuse to allow whatever re- verses may come, and such are sure to conic from time to time. to daunt or disconceri us_ Exaggerat- ing our discouragcmcnts can only shake our faith in our cause. and what is worse on the rt of us who are Christians. s ske our faith in Gods power and wisdom and good intent. A Just Cause If we opened our newspapers and listened to the broadcasts with a resolute determination to pill. the emphasis on our encour- agemcnis. most of our discourage- ments would shrink to their ropcr poiportions. The way is ha , and it may be long; but we have a just cause. a united purpose, a chiizalrous idcnl before us. and, in the goodness of God. we will reach our Promised Land 1n spits of every discouragement that may befall. And then a still further thought llwiit dlscouralzemélit is this. Dis- men and women we reel couragements reveal, almost more than anything else. what kind d lv are.
