The rector, Rev. Roy Melville, himself a veteran and one of the Princess Pats, conducted the service and preached very effec- tively from the words found in Phil. 4 and 22, All the Saints salute you, chiey they that are of Caesar's hou-sehold. The soldier should be doubly welcome in the house of God, for the warrior has in ages past played a prominent part not only in times of war, but in peaceful eras. Many instances might be quoted as found_ through the Bible of the Christian faith of soldiers. There can be no doubt that the Roman soldiery were in- strumental.in spreading the Chris- tian belief among the early Britons and other nations which came under the sway of Rome. The veteran has an opportunity of seeing the world and in consequence has a broader vision of the duty of the followers of Christ. When our boys return- ed after doing their part thoroug`h- ly for the Empire they were pointed to nd that the stress and strain of war had not made a change in the life of the nation, but is it not the duty of the soldier to carry on as before and to strive for a higher and better age. There can be no fellowship like that found in the trenches except that between man and the church, and so cement- ing the bond between God and man.

The vector preached upon the story 01 the Good Samaritan, and in applying the parable to modern life he ad- monished the members of the orders represented to make a practical ap- plication of the principles inoulcated by the constitution and not place too much stress upon ceremony and rit- ual when there is a crying need for relief for those in want and distress. Miss J. Edward and Mr. A. Jay -were the soloists at this service.

Railway Activity The-re can be no doubt that the general depression felt in the busi- ness of the railways all ovir the country as well as in this 1=.ulwa_v centre, can be attributed to the in- crease in the use of the motor truck, many manufacturers sending out direct by this means from their own factories to the consumer or to the retail trade. Travellers, too, are using cars and the passenger ser- vice is also being hard hit. Just what the future of the steam rail- way is would be hard to prophesy, but it is a question whether the rail- way companies can, througli a winter C .. -(5-... .~..u..J-Ln `min .4 Winnipeg, Man.
