PAGE 2. I‘D “-V\‘ 'U'"."-. Countless times by countless means God is calling us to the heights in his service. Why are we so content to travel around in the valley.in a slipshod manner when the heights offer such wondrous inducements, including God himself? Admitted that there are certain kinds of Christian service which do not come easy for some, God always gives us strength enough and sense enough for what he wants us to do. ° If we tire ourselves or puzzle ourselves, it is our own fault. It may be we will have to acquire a taste for certain duties as we do for certain foods, but if we persevere, the service for which we have acquired a taste by the exercise thereof will come to be easy and congenial. Experience shows that work is bettered more by practice than by ability. Reflect that life, like every other blessing, Derives its value from its use alone. The folks who are always excusing themselves from doing their work better would not accept the same excuses from others working for them. In the Christian’s grammar, adverbs count for as much as verbs. God regards not how much, but. how. It is well-doing that, earns his “Well done!” This being true. let us all serve him adverbially as well as verbally! IN ONE 0F STL’ART HOLDEN’S BOOKS.

Raymond, Professor of Paleontoluuy and (Ivohgy of Harvard, regarding the future of man upnn the earth, appvars in the last number of The Sunday Schonl 'I‘imcs. The predictions _of Dr. Raymond it} parkare: -u-‘l "- . The future man is as certain to lose his teeth as the ape man of the past lost his tail. The reason for the change lies in the diil'erence of degree. of use to which the teeth are put. The ape man used his teeth to tear sinews. break nuts and as weapons of oil'ense in lighting. Civilization has done away with these conditions, and accordingly, teeth have lost their vital importance in the daily life of man. Hair is a defence given us by nature against cold. Civil- ization gave men coats and artificial covering. In consequence, nature. governed by its great law of conservation of energy, no longer endowed man with a coat of hair for the body. Bald- ness is ever on the increase, where it probably never existed on the. ancient man. - ‘ n 1‘ I A ‘ k’ll "ll'. That man will lose certain of his fingers and toes also seems to be a biological certainty. When man climbed trees to escape from animals, his toes were neeilecil to give him footliolds. Now the functions of “lt‘St' extremities have deteriorated, until they are quite. useless. In his reply to the above, Mr. Bryan has this to say: The prediction recently made by Prof. Raymond of Har- \ary is the most interesting utterance on evolution published recently. it is important. not because it indicates either in- lt'lllgt'lll’t' or conscience. but because it shows how wildly a man can guess when he cuts loose from the verities of the Holy Writ. It will be nutiCed that they postpone the fultilment of their prophecies for thousandsâ€"sometimes millionsâ€"of years. They play safeâ€"they can pose as wise men all their lives, and no one can prnve them wrong until ages after they are. dead and formvtten. Prof. Raymond reminds me of an evolutionist who exhibited to his class a bottle which he. said, contained all the ingredients necessary to create life. but he explained that it would require a million years for life to come out of the mix- ture. These sci-called scientists waste so much of their own time and the priceless time of their pupils in trying to clothe the hmlies of our remote ancestors with hair and in trying to remove the hair from the heads of our distant descendants. that, they have no time left to deal with the mighty problems of the present day and generation. They will travel round the world to examine a piece of skull. but they will not cross the street. tn saw a soul.

R. MacNicol, Presi- dent of the Ontario Liberal- Conserv- ative \ssociation. The speaker strongly condemned the actions of the King administiation for their change in the fiscal policy of the country and claimed that in a mom-1 ent of weakness, they had yielded to the Western Pingresshe element in their attack on the National Policy the best policy Canada had e3 er had He claimed that the Pro- gressnes 33111111.. the sla3es of the Liberal 11a1t3' and that there more only t33o parties at 0tta33a in reahty. Mr. MarNicol said that Canada needed a tariff wall for the protec- tion and encouragement of industry int Canada, to keep out foreign man- ufacturcd products a taritf to keep out the agricultural products of other nations and a tariff to protect the Canadian workman, make his job secure and stop the flow of young Canadian manhood to the ['nited States.

'l‘he l'nited States tariff against Canadian hay was $4.00 a ton. while the Canadian duty was but $2.00. In eggs, it was 8 cents a dozen as against 3 cents. The tariff walt should be equalized so as to take care of the difference in climatic conditions, The Canadian farmer had a larger overhead to contend with than his American brother. The difference between sleighs and wheels. the difference in the time in which stock had to be stall-fed, the. better barns necessary in Can- ada as compared with the climatic conditions existing in the United States were all in favor of the farmer of the United States. It costs the Canadian farmer more to produce his products than it does the United tSates farmer. and the only way to take care of this dif- ference was in a tariff. 3ng I)â€" oht 3631 help Whatever cumuc co: may; t. _e qqnyention chose and gagging The extra overhead of the Cana- dian manufacturer in heating alone was a feature, and it. was his honest. opinion that the King Government Spent altogether too much time in lmiiking to the south than to the north. the Canadian market. The speaker referred to the sacrificing of the country’s natural resources. resources that should he developed in Canada instead of in the United States. It would take 33 large mills to manufacture the raw materials in pulpwood alone that were shipped out in 'their raw state to the United States, where they were manufac- tured by American labor. This would mean an annual payroll of at least a quarter of a million in wages to the. Canadian workman. He ad\0cated the dev010pme11t of the Canadian coal fields instead of buving almost all our supplies f1om our neighbor to the south and scored the present, gmemment for its persistent attacks on the tariff.

Mr. MacNicol’s address was well received, and though the hnur was late and the 'audienee fatigued from its heavy afternoon, he received an attentive hearing and thundering allyjause when he scored his point. The convention without doubt was the. best attended One held in South Grey at any time. and un- bounded enthusiasm gripped the, gathering from first to last.
