Once a near neighbour, whom we shall call Scott, an unregenerate old man, but a hard worker, needed help at a threshing-bee. He sent over to Sandy's for the latter s oldest son, locally known as Johnnie Sandy, who strange to say, was as industrious as his father was lazy.

These _lapses never bothered Sandy very much. as he had a valuable faculty of Get- -ting Out From Under. He always made it plain to the Lord and to his fellowmen that he was .not to blame.

That is,` if laziness and piety can walk together, which some people are so cruel as to doubt. Sandy seemed to have no difficulty in reconciling the two. He was one of the pioneers of an Eastern On- tario township. "When two score years had passed, his farm was `still in the pioneer stage. His neighbors had comfortable homes, great barns, broad elds. . Sandy still lived in a log shanty, with tumble-down out-l .buildings, set _in little patches of- clearing cluttered up with stumps -and invaded by straggling clumps-of young trees.

The Orig: `inal Alexander" came to Muddy York over 80 years ago, with his four sons, whose -families have spread and mul- tiplied.-and -become scattered over a considerable part of the earth's sur- face. The happy thought of a family gathering developed into enthusiastic action, and it was wonderfully suc- cessful iin cultivating a wider know- ledge.of and acquaintance between the various branches of` the family, many of whom had never met their kin; So much enjoyment and-en- thusiasm prevailed that it was .de- cided by resolution to organize a permanent Stewart Association, and` to hold annual gatherings.

If he thought -at all he would realize that there "are far more hyprocrites outside -the Church than in it. Any-- - one who really knows the Church from the inside is wel1 aware that the number of people who put on religion `for a cloak is very small. It is not sufficiently profitable. The gains that the average man would make by using religion as a cloak are so small as compared witth the responsibilities [he would have to assume, that he `would be` a `fool to clothe himself with it. As a matter of fact the man lwhouses the excuse of hyprocrites in the Church is himself a 9:ood deal of a hypocrite. He is not honestly facing the issue. He is simply Get-_ tine` (int From Under. 1\;r..... 1.... .. ....... `n- .._L .A.-L LL- V . . . V . -151 -J \.n\.4uvoalb \J\-cvrA L\lllI wuuwso This" summer Ex-Pres1den_t Taft.

' v _ A professional man of some prom- inence in one of the prairie provinc- es always used to excuse his indiffer- ence to religion and all religious act- ivities goingcon about him by saying that he got too much of itwhen he was a boy, because his mother com- pelled. him to go to church and Sun- day School. It is true that his moth- er s religion was of an old severe type a type which often produces a reac- tion in young people, once they are free to do as they wish. But for a man of middle age, an educated pro- fessional man, to say that he had no use for religion because of his moth- er's good-intentioned efforts forty years before, is simply a case of Get- ting Out from Under. It is as futile as Sandy's putting the blame of his swearing on old Scott. When a man has reached man s estate, let him take up a- man s responsibility, stand upon his own feet and answer as a man for whatever attitude he may take. It is a poor excuse to blame it on fath- er or mother, who. though perhaps mistaken in method, were honest in trying` to .do'their' `highest duty by their children. It is a flagrant case of Getting Out From Under. 'I'\L,._.- 2- -I_,_ LI__ D was an Ulu luau DCULUS Iault.
