The bride, given in marriage by her brother Gavan, wore a gown of white slipper satin. l-ler finger tip veil of tulle illusion was caught by a ctrclet of white velvet leaves and she carried a cascade bouquet of red roses. Miss Margaret Doyle, her sisters bridesmaid. was attired in holly red taffeta with matching held dress and mittens and car- ried a cascade bouquet of white csrnations. Mr. Michael Donnelly, Montreal, was groornltman. Following the ceremony a recep- tion was held at 51 Maplewood Avenue. The toast to the bride was proposed by the Rev. Father Baldwin. Later Mr. and Mrs. Booth left on a motor trip to Boston, New York and other American cities, the bride travelling in a flamingo wonl suit with white accessories and northern muskrat coat.

The groom, a veteran of world war II, spent 16 months in Koren and is now re-emplr--ed with the Shell Oil Company. The bride, a widely known and deservedly popular young lady was the recipient of many lovely presents and the best wishes of many friends are being extended to this young couple for a happy Journey through life.

O The assembly issued a letter to the Christian people of the United States in which it "excited the re- demptive role of the churches. pointed to the perils for man de- rived from the worship of material treasures. spoke in glowing lan- guage of human rights and free- doms. and demanded that the things of God be accorded their rightful place in the nurture of youth both in public schools and in institutions of higher learning." Further, "it called for the and of corruption in high places, and con- demned all and sundry who sell justice to the highest bidder. It re- pudiated the fatalism that a World War Three is inevitable and re- buked those who in this dark hour are prepared to abandon the United Nations. It reminded the nation that it subsists under the governance of God and that the exercise of national sovereignty must be in accord with the re- qun ments of world order." 0 C I Much more might be quoted from this glowing report, but the above samples of their vgords and deeds reveal immense possibilities in this organization of the Chris- tian forces in that mighty nation. There is a streak of idealism in the American character to which statmmanship of this high order makes a powerful appeal. In com- menting on what it is doing and aspiring to do, we mulst not forget our own "Canadian Council of Churches" which is keeping us in close contact with "The World Council of Churches" and is lead- ing Canadian Christians in their joint contributions to world need. Our Canadian leaders in this field are giving close study to the local conditions which call for Joint ac- tion and of the lines along which Christians can move together. But more of this later. II t O A Canadian church paper has just given an example of what this co-operation of our churches can do under the heading:-"Ottawa citizens of all faiths worked to- gether." This happened when an attempt was made to force a com- mercialized Sunday on the Capital. The religious bodies of the city worked together with an energy that was irresistible. The result was a. vote of 40.670 against the commercializing of the Lord's Day and 29.122 in favor. Side by side with this article in the Paper quoted was another article asking why Christians of all forms of faith cannot unite against an evil more insidious still--the liquor menace? The writer calls that trade:-"Public Enemy Number Onel" The divisions of Christians are a calamity of the first order, par- alyzing many efforts to extend Christ's Kingdom. But the in- stances cited reveal a new sense of solidarity in promoting title Christian faith and Christian prin- ciples. and what is needed now is forceful leadership in support of the conviction that what ought to be can be, and, by the help of God. shall be.

This is an organi tion which has principally one big aim-that of helping boys who have run foul of the law-young boys. too, who have no male companionship or guid- ance. Most often it is the death of the father-perhaps a hero's death. In other asses-the father is in prison. a mental hospital, de- serted his family or is incurably ill. Some, fathers in name only. are irresponsible wesklings or bru- tai drunkards. Sometimes money is not a prdblem-the boy's need is the same-he needs a dad. and here's where the Big Brother As-. socistion comes in. The Big Broth- er method of guiding boys can be reduced to a simple formula: one man-one boy. The plan for help- ing boys came into being on an evening in 1904 when Col. Ernest K. Coultsr. then the clerk of the newly established New York Chil- dren's Court, addressed the Men's Club of the Central Presbyterian Church and challenged it to stop studying civic betterment and "do something about it!” "If each man here would take a personal inter- est in just one boy who has come into conflict with the laws, he would be doing something worth- while," said Col. Coulter. The challenge struck home and more than forty members of the club that night volunteered to take a friendly interest in a boy who had "got off on the wrong fact." .In 1947 there were thirteen such groups and we have three such groups in Canada. Big Brothers are not accepted into the organ- ization indiscrimlnately. Each man is required to have a personal in- terview and to submit three ref- erences. The person-lity of the man. when he is accL,.ted, is care- fully matched with the needs and interests of the boy whom he agrees to see at least weekly or semi-weekly. Not so many years ago a. brilliant youngster. father- less. and in trouble with the police at the age of thirteen, with the help and guidance of a. Big Broth- er worked his way through school- medical school eventually-and is now a. lieutenant-colonel in the Army Medical Corps in charge of a large hospital unit in Korea. I have several articles on this As- sociation and if anyone is inter- ested in such a plan I'll only be too glad to pass on any information. Boys are the same in every land and when the going's tough need a helping hand to guide them on the right road. 3-Wednesday; Boys and girls. do you know that Roy Rogers de- signs his own cowboy shirts?

Like most things it has its good side and its bad. At times and in certain areas of ltf it is very keen, and there is y a. sphere where it is not operative. In one sense it is the life of busi- neu. for where it is not in evid- ence matters are too one sided. Where the ompetition is un- scrupulous or unetlhical. it is hard to carry on. and some good men go to the wall. Decent competition keeps prices for the consumer at a reasonable level. It plays a large part in our educational systems. Prizes are dsszied in the eyes of candidates and there's a race for first place. In our school days our parents used to ad: not how many were below us but how many were above us-u very different method of as- certaining the merits of our work. A little bit of rivalry has its good results for it makes the student work. Competition enters the church and here too it has its place. pro- viding It does not make the competitors vain. Even the apostle Paul when he was collecting money for the needy saints in Jerusalem did not hesitate to tell those on whom he was oslling how well others did so that this would stimulate them to greater en- deavour. (2 Corinthians 823.4.) to discover the cause of the trouble." A mechanic is stretched under the car, pullin the crankcase apart Leaning down to speak to him is a fellow mechanic, obviously de- lighted at the'discove y he has made.

"No gasi" One wonders why those whom God has blessed with great in- telligence let their childish pride blind them to what is most ob- vious. To turn to everything but God. Today, more so-called spec- isllsts than ever before in history, are trying to find what's the mat- ter with man. They are examin- ing him from all angles and with all sorts of gadgets. You may do a big service to one or more of them by stepping up and saying that you think you've found the trouble with modern man: "No Codi” And now su revoir for another week and I'll see you in March- March with its wild gusty winds, yet overlaid with a feeling of en- chantmsnt-pools of water reflect blue skies and drifting clouds.

"Cursed be he that deem the work of the Lord deceitfully." (Jer. 48:10.) Competition may breed hate. We have hssxd of "cut-throat com- petition!" one man or businen out to undo the other, This may be seen even in families. And it is a pity to say the least. Jealousy. the green-eyed monster, and envy may be gendered thus. I suppose that the field of mart and games shows more competition than any other. We. are told often that far too much time is taken up with games in college life now. Have we not heard of men who had certain privileges given them and In- ducemenis odlfsred to attract them to certain seats of leeming simply because they would help the said institition to be first in the com. petitions.-be they hockey, basket- ball, tennis or something else? 0 -. 0 A. C. Benson has an -essay on Games in his "From a college window." lie of course looks at the matter of games and the st- tendant competition as an educat- iorlist. and presumes. and surely rlshtly so, that people go to college to learn and not to play. Did not Paul say. "when I became a man I put away childish things." Benson declares that there is "a lamentable want of proposition ;. bout the whole view." He did not like competition anyway. He used the wise word "subordinated" meaning that games had a place but should not come before studies. It is a pity, he said, that boys should be in a sense discounted because they paid more attention to books than to cricket or ball. He was a schoolmaster and defined the "purpose of education to fit boys to play a useful part in the world." Competition needs to be moderated by the sense of what we call proportion. C O In the words of Hamlet, "The play's the tilting." It Is a fine thing to be a good loser. Have we not heard good sports after losing a game, say of curling, "Well, we had a good game anyway." The competition made it all the better. What a poor' sport that man was who came second in in competition for a big position in the education- al world. He was just one volte behind the suwessful candidate. who was one of the best men in that protfesion in the whole country. Instead of feeling elated that he oame so near ,winning against such a brilliant man, he lost heart and disappeared and spent his life in a camp out in the far west. A poor loserl YOIRIKTON. Bask..

Lenten Meditation From The Columns of The Times, London FAITH AN D FACT Two years ago, correspondence in The Times illustrated that the differing emphasis which Chris- tians place upon Christ's resurrec- tion as an event in history arlsce Dutly from differences of temper- ament. For some, Christ Is first one by whom, with God's help. they will stand through life and death, and for them the resurrec- tion is less the basis of faith than its confirmation. t ror others, more impressed by the crucifixion as the supreme ex- ample of countless tragedies, the historical resurrection is rather the essential basis of faith than a. confirmation of it. But this dif- ference cannot be absolute. If un- due concern about personal im- mortality Is.'in itself, not religious at all, intellectually it is certain. as St. Paul said, that if Christ be not risen Christian faith is vain. O O I Existence presents the same challenge to reason and faith as the death of the individual person. It is the recognition of ultimate human failure which gives mean- ing to the ressurection and to faith in it. Atheistlc communists are as ready as Christian martyrs to accept death; but many over- look the fact that intense belief in a cause is truly or mistakenly believed to be just and valid. De- votion to a cause links a person with something less perishable than life on earth. It is believed that the triumph of the cause will benefit countless other lives and, as an idea, that belief has value: but it is an effective working fac- tor only when it is valued. De- stroy the persons who treasure it, and any human good acquires the status of an abstract definition. cares nothing for the Individual but only for the race is unduly op- timistic; for if nature be mindless it has no care. Nor can the race. having no separate consciousneu. care for itself: if the race cares for anything it is because individual persons care for it. The self-sscri- lice of persons for causes. if it be more than a blind urge. involves that values will endure. C O I It is the supreme grestnes of the life - wholly devoted to the love of God and man and relying on nothing else - which Jesus Christ embodied and for ever symbolizes. that gives to his death an interest unfailing and an im- portance unequalled. Is the Chris- tian way of life practical, or only a fair but vain dream? Has it been vindicated by the dynamic force of fact and truth, or is it predes- tined to utter failure? Can men, following him, dare to believe, sp- pearances to the contrary notwith- standing, thst ultimate triumph is assured? The posing of such questions in Eastertide shows why from the first Christians fastened upon the resurrection as the rock of their faith. "If in this life we have noth- ing but a mere hope in Christ, we are of all men most pitisble." for than life is ordered upon a belief which has no validity and dedicat- ed to an ideal that must fall. "But thanks be to God who giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ." Death and all its shameful accompaniments failed to maintain empire over the Son of Man. l-lis triumph, no less than hLs defeat, is representative; and since he lives, has present power. Thus a new light shines upon history. illuminating the sacrifice is worth while because enigma of death and I martyrdom. it implies the continuance of thel race; but If nothing survives the death of the universe, the race can- not make up for the mortality of the individual person. That nature If the whole drama can be seen in relation to master as commem- orating not a fiction but a fact. there is ground for conviction that its travail is not in vain.
