Strath The death occurred at St. Joseph‘s Hospital, Toronto, on Monday, of Mrs. Edith Strath, wife of John L. Strath, of New Toronto, formerly _a wellâ€" known resident in Weston. Deceased, who had been ill for some time, leaves beside her husband, four sons to mourn her loss, Martin, Stanley, Hugh and Donald. Gone Beyond The Shadows Like the beautiful flowers that in the spring come out at the dedication of God, bloom in all their beauty and fragrance, then wither into oblivion, like the cool unchanting zephyrs that‘ come in the good old summer time then corrode into the chilly panoply] of autumn, so is it with us mortals. We all follow in the same way at the will of the Great Creator. No one can remain here for ever, for He has worked out a just and better plan, Hei hade this world simply as a playhouse. for His children to enjoy during their alotted span of life in this discordant sphere, then those who believe in Him will go to that blessed home He has prepared for us according to His Word as seen in St. John 14:2. In this episâ€" tle we may mention one who for upâ€" wards of ninety years, came and lived all that span of time, on the same farm, which he always treasured as a God sent inheritage and on which his equally aged widow still remains to enjoy the remaining sunset of her life ‘in comfort and satisfaction. In this â€"case we refer to the late Mr. John Mcâ€" Gillivray, of Purpleville, near Woodâ€" bridge, who on July 7th, last bade this scene a last farewell for time inmemâ€" orial crossed the Great Chasm and )entered the Golden, Portals that lead into the open spaces of eternity, leavâ€" ling gloom and loneliness in his wake. The deceased was born on the same homestead on which he did, a home his father hued out of the wilderness more than a hundred years ago and on which the subject of this article lived practically all his life of ninety ‘leng years, being born on June 6th, 1839. On February 4th, 1865, he was united in marriage to Miss Nancy Mcâ€" Gillivray, a maiden of his neighborâ€" 1839. On February 4th, 1865, he was united in marriage to Miss Nancy Mcâ€" Gillivray, a maiden of his neighborâ€" hood, and for over sixtyâ€"five years they journeyed on through thick and thin, down the road to happiness, prosâ€" perity and contentment until death stepped in and halted their progress, and he bowed submission to the Great Unerring Hand. The deceased was of strong Scotch learning and always exuded the atâ€" mosphere of the Highlands, though not born on the heather. Their matâ€" rimonial union was blessed with five children, all still living, namely, Sarah Catgerine, now Mrs. H. W. Peterman of Purpleville, Neil Alexander of Toâ€" OBITUARY THE WESTON TIMES & GUIDE ronto, John McLaughlin, on the old homestead, Jessie Florence, now Mrs. George E. Squirrell of Hillsview Ave., Toronto and Mary Annie Maude, now Mrs. Herbert W. Roberts of 278 Arâ€" madale Ave., West Toronto. The late Mr. McGillivray was a liberal in poliâ€" tics and a presbyterian in religion. The funeral, which took place on July 9th was very largely attended and the remains were interred in St. Paul‘s Church cemetery in Vaughan with the Revs. Mr. Bowman of Maple, Mr. Halâ€" but of Teston and Harold Chigston of Toronto officiating. The deceased was of a quiet unassuming way, kind and frugal and beloved by a great legion of friends throughout the townâ€" ship of Vaughan. Besides his widow, now in her nintieth year and his five children, he also leaves five grandâ€" children and two great grandâ€"children. His end was peace and now he is with the blest. 5.0.6.

Rees. £ We enter upon the life ot service to our generation with a serious handiâ€" cap unless we can achieve some real assurance of the general fitness of the scheme of things. We must larn to beâ€" lieve in what is called Providenceâ€" that this and no other is our generaâ€" tion. We may critize it but we must not despise it or hold aloof from it. It is no accident that we have been born into a certain race at a certain period of time and in a certain and peculiar to ourselves. And it is in this generaâ€" tion alone that it can be found and filled. ts Real Professional Efficiency How can we give effect to this deâ€" sire to serveâ€"this desire which we want to make the regulative purpose of our lives." The first way, I sugâ€" gest, is that of professional effigier}cy. Care must be taken to see to it that the work by whose means we earn our livelihood is a work which ministers to legitimate human need. There are works that do not so minister. On the contrary, they pander to human weakâ€" ness and poison human life. But given a sphere of labor whose direction is towards human need, we must strive to fill that office and do its work with a growing thoroughness of efficiency. We must take a proper pride in it and strive to make it express our whole personality. The idea of personmâ€" al profit must be relegated to a place of secondary importance. The "shodâ€" dy" must be feared and hated. This work is one of our chief means of getâ€" ting into the life of the people, and we must make it express ourselves in our nobler, disciplined, desire for their good. Only so can soulâ€"making and breadâ€"winning proceed in â€" harmony. They must never be separated. They belong to each other, but they are kept together, mutually contributory, by the great principle of service. Thus|] shall we find the joy of work. Such ‘ work will become, eventually, our real ‘"play." The world is crying out for men who will enter into professional, business, artisan life animated by such a spirit as this. Must Feel Sympathy. Our efficiency in professional work will be furthered as we grow in breadth of human sympathy. Nothing human should be alien to us. We need to know more of, and feel with, the boundless variety of human types. It takes all sorts of people to make a world. Such knowledge cannot come by chance. It must be sought and woâ€".. We must mingle, personally, as freeâ€" ly as possible with as many as possiâ€" ble, going steadily beyond the cireis of our own group or set or clique. Travel is a great help, and holidays, judiciously used, have their own speâ€" cial contribution. Then, we must reac: the newspaper (being selective, not! servile); periodicals; booksâ€"all with) a view to a growing understanding of! our generation, its conditions of litfe, The kiddies found the grounds a huge delight and took a great deal of joy out of the donkeys and the other attractions which were provided. We are learning that parasitism is a degrading condition of life, and that its ultimate issue is destruction. We are learning, too, that whilst it is true that we must lay hold of and rightly evaluate our rights, the nobler_ and more fruitful thing to do is to make persistent and intelligent insuiry into the realm of duty, with a view to imâ€" mediate and spontaneous action. Such 1action is the greater part of our true ife. Service and generation are words whose meaning has been greatly enâ€" riched, though not created, by the inâ€" sistent pressure of the Christian faith. Their wide currency in our time is an impressive testimony to the persuaâ€" sive power of that same faith. _ SERVING OUR GENERATION BY REV. E. W. PRICE EVANS, M.A. OF CRANEâ€"STREET BAPTIST CHURCH, PONTYPOOL, ENG. For ye serve the Lord Christ;â€" Colossians III:24. THE, SERMON and its mentality. In the greater books and the leading periodicals, esâ€" pecially, we shall learn what the more intelligent, earnest and forwardâ€"lookâ€" ing men and women are thinking about; how they diagnose human conâ€" ditions, and what they prescribe for the remedy of such ills as they disâ€" cern. Such study is necessary, too, beâ€" cause of the elusiveness of the timeâ€" spirit. The spirit of theâ€" age differs in every generation, and its character is grasped only as we give ourselves to intelligent and responsive effort. "One generation passeth away, and another generation cometh; but the earth abiâ€" deth for ever." Growing knowledge of human life and prevailing human conditions will deliver us from the baneful snares of class consciousness. We shall learn how closely we are related to one anâ€" other; how pervasive are good and ill; and how responsible for the whole we most truly are. We shall learn to "rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep." But a broadening sympathy with men, a deepening sense of our relaâ€" tionship with the whole of human kind, may depress or overwhelm us unless we learn the rudiments, at least, of a fine and_ strengthening spiritual philosophy. We need to culâ€" tivate what I may call idealism. We can never become enthusiasts for humanity unless we become conâ€" vinced that human life is capable of and meant for great and enduring things. Sin, ugliness, disease, sufferâ€" ing are dreadful factors of our human conditions. It is impossible adequately to account for them, but the Christian religion witnesses to the possibility of their control and eventual removal. Man wants food, clothing and many other things, but only because he himâ€" self is meant for what are called spirâ€" itual values and these material things give him his opportunity for perceivâ€" ing and appropriating them. If life is a long sequence of morals it is not worth while. It is only worth while when we bring in God, and when we learn the outlines of His purpose for men, His creation, in â€"the Supreme Man, Jesus of Nazareth. As we isoâ€" late and concentrate our best attenâ€" tion upon Jesus, we learn to rethink the terms of our life and the gossibi- lities of all men (however at present, depressed and overladen) in regard to them. Jesus becomes at once our supâ€" reme Inspirationâ€"both for ourselves, as flesh and spirit strive in conflict, and we try to serve our generationâ€" and the earnest that the struggle is not in vain. Service becomes our joy because, though directed towards and for our generation, it is done as unto, and sustained by our growing fellowâ€" ship with Him. We are His fellowâ€" servants, and engaged in the greatest of all servicesâ€"that of the Kingdon.
