That, he said, should be every sol- dier s motto. Fearing God they would fear no one else. They should be strong in faith rst, for faith was the foundation of all.

"Many deeds of British bravery he recounted as illustrations for his sermon, and referred to the pride and ad- miration with which Canadians received the news of the conduct of our volunteers in South Africa. 1`he Canadian, as a soldier, he said. could not`be surpassed, and the 35th Regiment was well represented; from this he spoke of the importance of duty.

He is quite `willing, how- ever, that we .*should choose a. nice` roomy day, when he is in no danger ot being` jostled by bigger men, and mark that as his `birthday. ` He adds that `the `day selected will thence- forward be.-duly observed by him to the end of his -natural life- We "0 faced by a. serious-V responsib y.
