But a passing feeling of regret is one thing; anything hke.a cherishing of a mood of regretfulness is quite another -thing, The year has just a- bout gone from us. As the last few hours of it tickthemselves away they pass from us just a little regretfully. that they should do so is scarcely our fault, fof we canmot quite pre- vent it, But we can prevent anything like an orgy of regretting, which scems to be the way that some peo- ple feel they should pass the closifig] hours of the dying year. It is a foolish exercise, none the better be- cause some people think it to be a pious one. It will not greatly help next year to be better and more satisfactory to spend a great deal of time regret- ting the failures and misfortunes of the past one, Tor regret is such a negative sort of thing that i ho good can ever come of it until one gets quite out of the mood of it. Re- gret over an unsatisfactory past might serve some useful purpose if it would lead at once to some very strong purposing and rededication for the. future, but often: we spend so much time and energy regretting our failures and confessing our sins that we have little left for what should We will do as they did at Jericho old: By faith give a shout and a cheer, 'KNOX Presbyterian Church Simcoe Street North and Brock Street Rev.

Such confessing of sins, that is notling more than pious re- gretting, can have nothing very wholesome or helpful in it; indeed it may have a very fruitful sced of evil in it." Mighty purposing and strenuous resolve for the future must follow any regret that may stir in our hearts over the past before any- thing at all can happen, and even then our repentance has only begun to work out its fruits of righteous- ness. Life lpesn't grow better and stronger for any one of us just by merely wishing that it might, a0 matter how piously or sincerely we may so wish. Making next year greatly better than last year has Lbeen will prove to be a strenuous and taxing business for which any one of us will need strength and courage and patience and wisdom of very high quality, and the coming into our lives of more of that Divine Spirit that girds men for finer things. The word for today, there- fore, this opening day of another year, must not have very much of a tinging of regret or sadness to it; rather must it be a strong word of forward-looking ambition and cour- age' and loyalty to all those things which are true and honorable and of good report. Leaving the dead past to bury its dead, we will turn our faces bravely toward the future: the future which will ever be -r- der the hand of our God, and in which He has a purpose of better things for every one of us, "When Two Shall CHURCHES HELPING LEAST Agree" TO ASSIMILATE FARMERS The immigrant farmer whom Dr. E.

"In reply I pointed out that their protest amounted to a claim that a parish priest had a right to do what a bishop was not allowed to ap- prove.

Givin 15s Godlike, and we are assured that God loves a cheerful giver. happy and generous givers known to the writer are those who make it a rule to contribute for religious and benevolent objects a definite propor- | tion, not less than one tenth, of] their incomes. As prosperity increas | es, giving grows. Such contributors may be regarded as partners of God and partnership with Him is a glor- ious business, On this subject a few words from that great Christian statesman and financier the late Wil- liam E. Gladstone are well worth 1 quoting. They occur in a letter to his son, then a young man at col- lege. "Especially is it wise to devote a certain portion of our means to pur- poses of charity and religion. 'Lhe greatest advantage of making a little tund of this kind is, that when we are asked to give, competition 1s not between self on the one hand and charity on the other, but be- tweeh the different objects of reli gion and charity, among which we ought to make careful choice, It is desirable that the tcath of our means be dedicated to God, and it tends to bring a blessing on the rest. No one can tell the richness of the blessings that come to those who thus honor the Lord with their sub- stance." What a happy year 1930 would be to all bearing the Master's name if they made and adhered to the resolve that during the next twelve months they would devote not less than one tenth of their incomes for the pro- motion of His work. How splendid- ly church debts and mission deficits would disappear, and how gloriously the Kingdom of God would be ad- vanced. Proportionate Giver, 1928 he observed, the case was one in which it would be proper to grant permission, If the 1928 book had passed, and an undertaking given that "reservation of the sacrament would be used for the sole purpose of communicating by the sick under the conditions laid down, although not at liberty to give definite per- mission (and my wish is that the practice be discontinued for the pre- sent) reservation, if comunuad, would not be disapproved by me, I now state that I am prepared to act on these lines and not otherwise" Charles Elkins, legal secretary to the Bishop of Birmingham, Right Rev, Dr. Barnes, has accepted ser vice of a writ issued at tha instance of the trustees of St. Alban's Church, Birmingham, for an order of the court that Rev. G. D. Simmonds be inducted to the living.

Es- tablished in 1868, the Hermannsbury field in India had become a powerful factor in foreign missions when the World War made cordial relation- ships between the German society and the British government of In- dia impossible." The joint synod of Ohio was already interested in and supporting a portion of the Her- mannsburg work when the impasse occurred, It was natural that this orphaned mission should find a foster mother in the' American body. In 1921 an agreement of transfer was reached between the joint synod and the Hermannsburg society, following which the two major parties disa- greed concerning the final disposi- tion of the field. AGAIN WHO WON THE WAR? Lord Fisher was beyond all rea- sonable dispute the greatest man who has served in the British navy since the days of Nelson, In many respects he was a much abler man than Nelson, and if in his prime he had had.an 'opportunity of demonstrating in actual warfare on the sea his extraordinary per- sonal efficiency and powers of lead- ership it is more than possible that tho utlimate fame would have ec- lipsed that of his hero, But he liv- ed too long and came most promin« ently before the public eye when his judgment had begun to wane and the garrulous personal conceit of an old man had begun to take the place of that intensely virile and comparatively silent self-con- fidence which had enabled him al- most single-handed to overcome [n= tenso conservatism of the navy'and remodel it from top to bottom into an effective instrument of modern naval warfare. More properly than any other single 'nan in Burope of America, he might claim by his prevision to have the war against Germany. United Church | Rev. A.
