One is tie prudential view, the Insurance view, the attempt to guard against and ward off contingencies. There are men who take to educa- tion merely In the expectation of in- creasing their money-earning power. "Education," declared the speak- er, "is primarily a means for a man's own happiness--an affair of his own spirit."" The insurance view of life takes men on to the grade of the average and leaves them there, hard- ening. Opposed to this is the adventurous view, the gipsy view. Just because life is full of Incalculable dangers take the long chance, try for the high tnings. No one can insure him- self against the evils of life. Noth- ing in the insurance way will pre- vent one from growing to suspect his fellows. Only trusting them can do that. When the spontaneity of triendship 18 lost It is one of tLe infinite tosses of life. Very many men settle down into miadle life afraia of that waich is high. They select for themselves a rut so deep thdt it leads down to their graves. Men approach questions of faith with these two different spirits, the prudential apd the adventurous. Some insist on subscription to a fixed creed. Yet faith has never been secured by creefls. We are faithful to God not because of an elaborate creed but because we love Him. From its very nature faith is some- thing whigh cannot be insured, for faith is an adventure in believeing things that we cannot know. Kle- ments of faith include the belief that this world has a just God over it; that the true course for us is the lite of God as shown by Jesus Christ; that the Kingdom of God can be brought to earth and that there is u world to come. Here the speaker included a brief rreview of the history of Chalmers' church. It was founded in 1845, two years after the great disruption in Scotland and was one of the earliest Free churches In Cadada. Is min- isters had been Robert Burns, 1945- 65; Patrick Gray 1857-75; McCualg 1875-87; Dr. Malcolm Macgillivray, 1887-1917; Dr. R. J. Wilsom 1918- 1923; and G. A. Brown 1924. It has been a splendid leadership of a splendid congregation. And now the congregation was ready to go for- ward into mew paths, not afraid of this high thing which had come to three great Christian bodies of Can- ada, a thing that might bring the religious awakening that is needed. Let them shake off all vestiges of timidity; let them not stay in the 80 forward not afraid of that which is high for they were in the service of One who is never changeable. At the evening service, which was again very largely attended, Prin- cipal Taylor spoke on the desire of meén for an intérmediary between themselves and God. Every age was afraid of a clear vision of God lest it become a revolutionary thing in their lives. In our own day the min- istry was often requested to stick to topical and practical subjects, But it is the quack in religion as in other fields who assures men that there is &n easy way. And always Christ stands with the old Searching ques tion upon his lips, "Whom say ye that I am? At both services the singing of choir and congregation was on tionally clear and pleasing. The ehoir showed the evidences of very careful preparation by Mrs. Dobbs, organist and choir leader. At the morning service Mrs. L. M. Collins sang "How Long Wilt Thou Forget Me?" to a setting By Oley Speakes. Her rendering was done with much feeling and in clear, beautiful tones. The anthem was "Arm, Sold- fers of the Lord," by John Booth, and the chair excelled itself in this martial piece. x m | | physicial | which men take towards life, botn | --_---- ANNIVERSARY SUNDAY THE ODD FELLOWS AT ST. ANDREW'S | (Rev. J. W. Stephen Preaches | an Excellent Sermon on "The Second Mile." Kingston celebrated the 106th anni- | versary of the formation of their order by attending divine service at St. Andrew's" church. There were about five hundred members of the following lodges on parade: Catara- qui No. 10; Granite No. 363; King- ston No. 59; Limestone City En- campment No. 10; Louise Lodge, No. 1.0.D. of R.; Canton Kingston 6 P.M. and Fortress Frontenac, No. 4 L.A. P.M. The Odd Fellows assembled at the lodge rooms at the corner of Princess and Montreal stPeets, and marched to the church, headed by | the Salvation Army band. The service was very fine. The main part of the church auditorium was reserved for the members of the order. The members of the Louise Lodge No. 10 D. of R. occu- 'pied seats in the front part of the church. . Rev. J. W. Stephen, pastor of St. Andrew's, preached a very forcible sermon on the subject of "The Sec- ond Mile" and. took for his text Matthew V, 41; "And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go -with him twain." In opening his discourse, Mr. Stephen referred to the olden days in Syria when the commander of troops had authority when passing through a village with his regiment to order the able-bodied men to assist in carrying the bag- gage belonging to the army. In case the men refused, they were imme- diately court-martialed. The &peak- er stated that a Christian should do a little more than he was expected, and so go the second mile. The community expects its citizens to render service, and the Lord ex- pected us to go farther and still farther in carrying out his mission. Mr. Stepher said that it was charac- teristic of Christianity that there be an over-plus in His service. Chris- tianity calls for us to do something to assist our fellow men. Mr. Stephen referred to many who were satisfied if they can run the first mile. Mr. Stephen said that "we may keep the Sabbath day and refrain from playing golf on Sunday, but what counted most was what positive good we did on the Sabbath day. What do we do be- side administering to ourselves? is the all important thing. The preach- er referred to the kindly word which we drop at the second mile. "What are we doing to make life secure and happy to those around us?' asked Mr. Stephen. If we are doing something, that was going the second mile. The man who was watching the clock is only going the first mile, while the man in the same place of business who 1s not watching the ¢/pek and is working so that the business will prosper will get promotion and he is going the second mile. When referring to the members of the Odd Fellows' order who were present, Mr. Stephen stated that "the test of our standing in the order de- pends by your principle of the sec- ond mile." The members of the or- der may gather in the lodge rooms at stated periods, but if the mem- bers only went for the purpose of what they could get out of the meet- ings for themselves that is only go- ing the first mile. The members should go farther and think of the good they could do some person else and that was the policy of the sec- ond mile. The all-important thing in life was not what we could get out of the order but what we could put in. * The choir under thé leadership of Mrs. A. R. B. Williamson rendered an excellent programme which con- sisted of: Organ prelude ("Allegro Cantabile") Widor; anthem "King All Glorious" (Barnby) in which the solo parts were taken by Ernest Hess and Jack LaFlair; quartette, kdl I -- On Sunday the Odd Fellows of | MONDAY, APRIL 27, 1023. newest. f6rSpri --sizes pe The Home of Attractive House F urnishings at Popular Prices All That's New--That's All CHAPPIE COATS, $5.00 Misses' oS Womsi's Brushed Wool Chappie Coats--the wear--new shades of Pearl Grey and Camel to 42.

THE R.C.A. SERGEANTS MESS HOLD DINNER A Pleasing Event on Saturday Evening at Tete de Pont Barracks. On Saturday evening a very suc- cessful dinner and concert was held in the mess room of the A.C.A. sergeants' mess, Tete de Pont bar- racks, about one hundred being seat- ed, composed of military members, 7 ex-military members and civilian honorary members. Dinner was served at 7.30, and all were loud in their praise of the delicious meal served by the brigade sergeant cook. Sergt. Shell. At the conclusion of the dinner, tables were cleared and a programme of exceptional merit was commenced. The first toast was to His Majesty the King, and was ably proposed by the chairman (M.G.) C. Goguel, and responded to by all present ris- ing and singing the national anthem. Then followed selections by the R.C. H.A. band, popular songs and solos. The second toast was proposed by B.Q.M.8. G. E. Morris, and was to our honoroble members, in which special mention was made of old and familiar faces who have been hon- orary members of the mess for many years. This toast was replied to by Mayor Angrove, .who thanked the meds for the honor bestowed upon him by electing him as an honorary member, and then made a few re- marks upon the value of the military of all classes to the city of Kings- ton. He also drew attention to a beautiful piece of silver that he had seen on the table, that was presented to the R.C.H.A. by citizens of Kings- ton in 1881. Hs assured the mem- bers that the spirit that existed at the time of this presentation still ex- fsted and that the work done over- seas by the members present would never be forgotten. In replying to this toast for H.Q.M. D. 3, Condue- tor E. Chandler of the R.C.0.C. drew attention to the friendly feeling ex- isting between all departments of the military of this district, and said that it was a pleasure to have such good co-operation in their work, and it HE BE » fi ELE Iz feri "Hats of Unexampled Smartness™ { HATS | The styles are in such splendid proportions that even the man of most conservative taste is easily suited here.
