Mr. Edwin C. Johnstone was again appointed as Provincial Campaign Chairman for the 1951 campaign which will get underway in this Province. as well as all across Canada and the Un- ited States, on March 1. Mr. Johnstone is taking immediate steps to secure chairmen for Prince, Queen's and King's Counties, as well as Charlottetown and Sum- merside. and hopes to announce the names of these gentlemen in the very near future. It was pointed out that the Red Cross campaign had not reached its objective of S33.000 either in 1949 or 19.30 -- the total was just s30.500 in 1949 and only 825,000 in 1950. The president, Mr. R. H. Rogers, urged that everything pos- sible be done to contact every person in every district in the Province in 1951 so that they all may have an opportunity to con- tribute and theroby reach, and perhaps exceed, this year's objec- tive which is set at the same amount,-s33,000.

Shelley called Italy "Thou paradise of Exiles." It had attrac- tions for Byron. Leigh Hunt and the Brownlngs. Many others enjoy- ed its blue skies; but possibly no one wove it into song as did Shel- ley. The. year lillil, when Shelley wrote this poem on ”Dejecllon”, was one when he was up against it. to use a common phrase. Do- mestic trouble had reached a cli- max and his health was not good. He had been threatened with tub- erculosis. The poem in question is beautiful but sad. There is a poignant, note in much of his verse. These lines are from him - "Our sweetest songs are those which tell of saddest thought.” and "We learn in suffering what we teach The fourth line of the second verse of Dejectlon has a beautiful figure - "Like light dissolved in stan'-showers thrown." Have we not seen this on the water? it in: a sense puts one in mind of Word- worth's line - "The son that bares her bosom to the moon.” We have seen that too. A broad lane of light under the moon. Shelley was drowned before he reached his thirtieth birthday. The story is a sad one. At least twice in his poetry he seems to have anticipated the event; of course all unconsciously. In "Al- astor", his first poem of note one which is autobiographical and shows the influence of Words- worth.The phrase "Too deep for tears" is from that poet, and the phrase "the deep heart of man” is also from him. This about the sea is also significant: "A restless impulse urged him to embark, And meet lone death on the drear ocean's waste; For well he knew that shadow laves The slimy caverns of the populous deep.” But this from the lines on "Do- jectlon" is more significant: "I could lie down like a tired hi mighty c id . . . Till death like sleep might steal on me, And I might feel in the walrm air My cheek grow cold, and hear the sea Breathe o'er my dying brain last monotony." He was drowned in specials treacherous bay on July 8, 1822. The last few weeks he lived were in some ways the happiest in his strange life. His early school life was not (happy. He was misunder- stood. Doubtless he was one of the sweetest singers in all the Eng- lish chorus. Moreover, he was a phllantroplst generous to a fault. He was a champlon'of'liber- ty and had plans for the ameliora- tion of the human race. His un- happiness is expressed in the poem we are considering. Listen to this: "Alas! I have not hope nor health, Nor peace within nor calm around; Nor that content, surpassing wealth, The sage in meditation found. And walked with inward 'glory crowned. Nor fame, nor power, nor love not!" leisure . . . . . To me that cup has been dealt in another measure." He means the cup of good things. Matthew Arnold closes his es- say on Shelley with these words: "In poetry no less than in life, he is a beautiful and ineffectual ang- el beating in the void his lumin- ous wings in vain." its life's Doubtless some of the lyrics of Shelley are among the perman- ent jewels of English literature. Bagehot says he was the ”lesst biblical of the poets" but he was a religious man in the best sense - lovlng -his fellow men. interested in the betterment of their lot, a lover of beauty, a champion of truth -. like those surprised peo- ple whom our Lord tells us about in his picture of the great. assize (Mstthew 26: 38, 29.) - "uncon- scious Chrlstians” we would call them; better than they thought themselves to be. had gathered the bride-to-be was escorted to the prettlly decorated seat of honor by Miss Ens.

After a large nlanber of men wishes them all a Happy New Year. ugh Contemporary critics of our times are describing this age as one of transition. a claim which the un5cI.ed conditions of pres- ent-day life seem to confirm. All around us old structures are placing the old. t appears that we are on the ihres old of a new era and the strongest evidence for it is that the crisis we are experienc- ing is principally a crisis of unity. Deep down in the heart of all men there exists a desire to be united with others. The reason for this is that each of us needs the association of others for the com- pletion and perfection of our be- ing. This native urge accounts for the multiple associations of men on all levels and in all depart- ments of human life, from the simple society of husband and wife of the school, of business enfor- prlses, of clubs of every description as well as of the state, the nation and the church. F-rum earliest times, it seems men have tended toward union with one another, at least within certain limits, either geographical, national, racial. poll- tical, social or economic. Today, despite the growing threat of war, this tendency ap. pears Just as strong as ever but with a major difference. We are Witnessing today a phenomenon lory of mankind. namely. the ten- dency toward a world union of the human race. ' Indeed, concrete steps have al. ready heen taken toward the achievement of such a union on the plane of politics by the forma- progress has been slow in this venture, even somewhat disap- pointing the movement toward union has nevertheless been speed- lng ahead in other spheres. Great impetus to it has been given by scientific discoveries. For instance. the airplane, the press, the movies, radio and television are rapidly shrinking distances and bringing peoples closer togethor. Industry and economics and finance are now conducted on an internation- al and even world-wide scale. As a result, people eterywhere are beginning to wear similar clothes. cat the same kind of foods, and travel by identical means of.con- veyance. Supposing that these tenden- cies will continue, it should hap- pen before ve:y long that people will be thinking the same thoughts and aspiring toward common goals. In other words, it appears that the world is moving in the direction of an identical kind of life, toward a. uniform type of man, which gives reasons to believe that we may some day see realized a com- mon. a unlveossal civilization. pos- sibly even a global society. Now, if this is true, the ques- tion is what arethe predominant ideas that will give shape to things to come? Not all of them are discernible but from the trends of contem- Fra-ncis - carr iiuptiais A very pretty wedding was sol- emnized at the Church of Most Holy Redeemer at 8:30 a.m. on October 18th, 1950, when Rev. Father E. Baldwin, C.S.S.R.. united in the holy bonds of matrimony, Mary Catherine Isabel, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Herbert M. Carr. Charlottetown. to Keith Joseph, only son of Mr. and Mrs. Harold Francis. Crapnurl, P. E. I. The bride entered the church on the arm of her father. by whom she was given in marriage. The bride looked lovely; in a floor-length gown of ivory satin. with sweetheart neckline and seed pearls. The long sleeves came in llolnis over the wrists. Her floor-length veil was caught with a crown of net. Her only ornament, was a single strand of pearls. She carried a bouquet of American hcsuty roses. The bride's cousin. Mrs. Elvin Douglas, was her only bridesmaid. She looked lovely in a floor- length gown of yellow taffeta, with matching headdress. She carried a -nosegay of mauve and yellow baby mums with mauve streamers. The groom was Mr. Elvin Douglas.

And if- lhe. . pcusry thinking, it is safe to presume that they will be cen- tered upon man. Man will be the battlefield upon which the ideas .of east and west will clash. And in the etsulng synthesis, it seems "ale that the west will pre- fvsll at least to the extent of con- tributing to the new humanism a ,technical character. . But the ultimate ax.-.i deepest issues concerning man, his nature and origin and destiny, will re- main to be settled and it happens 'that these issues cannot be settled apart from theology. Man has his 1centre either in God or in himself and a decision on this point is necessary for forming my ade- quate cc.;1cept.lorl of man. ' Hence, it is possible for diametrically opposed lot man to make a bid to give orientation to the approaching planetary civilization. And ac- -cording as one or the other con- ception prevails, the coming world society will either develop along purely secular lines and have lis centre of gravity in a new type of llumun.ity conceived as dominat- ing the earth by scientific and technical means in complete in- dependence of God. Or it will de- velop along Christian lines and its ideal and centre of gravity will be established in Christ, perfect Man and very God. These- two conflicting views are intotesilng even as mere matters of speculation. But history is here to witness that their struggle for ascendency has already left the prealm of possibility and entered nthe realm of contemporary fact. More than a century ago, Feuer- two pbach, the doctrinal link between I-legal and Karl Marx, boldly proclaimed that "the turning- point of history will be the mom- ent when man becomes aware that the only God of man is man him- 'seif." A few years later, Friedrich Nietzsche came forth to announce the death of God. God is dead, long live the superman! Auguste Comte. also thought along the ling of an athclstlc humanism. or him it has been said that his self-appointed task was "to discover a man with no trace of God in him." . Thea three men, together with Karl Marx, are largely responsible for the ambition among many of cur contempt-:arles to establish a. new order of things founded- on a. humanism whose outstanding feature is its rejection of God.
