l`0l)ll'S GOSPEL
There's a joy-
’l‘o vot’ries of publicity unknown-
To hear the still small voice of con-‘
science speak- |
In Wi!iSD'I`iI\g plaudits to the silent
soul.
Here in a not-shell is the secret of
Christmas joy and happiness.
It is more fully set forth in the
following, which will, no doubt, bel
more or less familiar to most of our,
readers:
Though we speak with tongues of-
men and of Angels, and have not
charity, we are become as sounding
brass, or a tinkling cymbal. l
And though we have the gifts oil
prophecy, and understand all myster-`
ies, and all knowledge; and though
we have all faith, so that we could
move mountains. and have not char-I
ity, we urs nothing.
And though we loestow all ourlgoods
,to feed the poor, and though we give
.our bodies to be burned, and have
not charity, it prorlteth us nothing.
Charity siiflereth long, and is kind,
charity envieth not; charity vaunt-
eth not itself; is not puffed up;
llntli not behave itself iluseemly,
seeketh not her own, is not cnsily
provoked. tliinketb no evil;
Rcjoiceth not in iniquity, but re-
jolceth in the truth; '
Bellreth all things, believeth all
things, hopeth ull things, en-
dureth all things;
Cllr-.rity never faileth.
For this is the message that we
have heard from the beg uning, that
we should love one another!
Whoso hath this world’s goods,und
seeth his brother hath nerd, and
shutteth up his bowels of compass-
ion from him, how dwclleth love in
him?
Let us not love in word, neither in
tongue; but in deed and in truth.
This is the eleventh commandment
and the lesson for Christmas day.
These are the English arts, these we
profess,
'l`o be the same in misery and suc-
cess;
To teach the lawless law, assist the
good
To relieve the wretched, and subdue
me orsrefllilllisr
Therehas been a good deal of talk,
mischievous talk too, about an all-
eged glut in the oyster market and a
consequent difficulty in selling Prince
Edward Island oysters in Montreal
and other Canadian cities.
The fact is that no .market in Can-
ada, this or any other year, has been
so supplied that there was no room
for Prince Edward Island oysters at
about double the price paid for any
other variety.
It is quits true that the Montreal
ican oysters. American dealers went
int
. to 10 United states oysters, Prince Edward shoe maker. or Claylwrt. Alnwick. and
Island Malpeques and Curtain Island
17
uw gg oysters were sold in these same mar- of the Duke of Northumberland for
any other Canadian market being so_
‘of absurdity. It is quite possible that
ciently large crop to make an Impress-
Any talk about the Montreal or
gluttsd as to have no room for Prin-.
ce Edward Island oysters is the acmc
Montreal dealers during the unusually
warm weather in September and Oct-
ober, when already stocked with Uni-
ted Stntes oysters, may have refused
to handle Malpeques, a course which
common business prudence would dic-
tate; lt is possible also, that for this
reason small lots of Malpeques were
begging for purchasers, but it must
not be forgotten that this was he-
cause of the scarcity, not the abund-
ance of Mnlpeques.
There will be ii demand for Malpe-
que oysters ns long as they can be
grown for they are admittedly the
heat oysters in the world. To ensure
a market for them, however, they
must he produced in sufficient quali-
tity to supply the market. lt is con-
fidently hoped thut on the beds now
under cultivation and on the areas
still to be leased, enough oysters
will be grown to supply nt least our
,own Canadian markets. Should there
he a surplus the whole world is opcu
to buy them for nowhere else in the
world have oysters of equal flavor
and lusciousness been produced.
THE SCli00LBOY lil Cllil\Dl
“The Sclioolboy in Canada" is the
title of li book recently published in
England, the author of which, Cyril
Fitz-Gerald, made a tour of Canada
for the purpose oi procuring at first
hand such information as "would en-
iible the intending emigrant to re-
rilize beforehand something of the
country, its people, its llinds and its
laws.
The author deals fenrlessly and
plainly with the subject, treating the
country first as a whole and nftcr.`
wards by provinces. ill-
' Speaking generally he says “There
is, in short, no profession, no occu-
pation or calling, which fi young
mnn cannot, adopt in Canada with
better prospects than can be profi-
ered him at home. Ho long as thc
new-comer is willing and anxious to
adopt himself to all phases of Can-
adian life-to work as the Canadian,
to think as the Canadian, in short td.
do as the Canadian does, then he
need have no fear. He will not feel
himself amongst a strange people,
for.they will treat him as
a brother of the old land.
They will, in fact,honour him for his
pluck and respect him as a member
of that great empire of which they
are members no less than himself.”
A chapter is devoted to each of the
provinces showing its advantages
from the settlers point of view and
describing in detail the industries
and characteristics of each. The
chapter on Prince Edward Island" is
hy Mr. J. E. B. McGready,_‘Publicity
Agent, and 'is written in his usual
interesting and educative manner.
Arrangements are being made for
a general distribution of the issue
throughout Great Britain and the
hope is expressed that 75,000 copies
"may find their way to those who
are called upon from time to time to
advise the youth of this Country
(Britain) in respect to emigration to
(`lanudu."
