Dr. Lucas chose his text from Colossians 1:10, That you might walk worthy of the Lord and unto all well pleasing, being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God." He implored the young people to make their lives use- ful to God and man, rather than liv- ing selfish lives. He referred to the joys of a life of service and spoke of the 35 years he had spent in mis- sionary work in the Arctic. It is only three or four years since Rev. Dr.- Lucas was Bishop of Mackenzie River. The Eskimos, he said, when he went north, were all pagan and when he returned there were between 600 and 700 native christians, an outstand- ing example of results obtained in missionary work. These people were now honest and truthful, had been .lifted from degradation and are hun- gry for more knowledge. RPV Mr conrr `miinnonnn [us out: uu1u.u1ua.uUI1 SBIVICB.
