Rhea BR al a BET " TWO STANDARDS OF GREATNESS, In the latter part of the eighteenth century and the early years of the nineteenth there lived in Europe two men who stand at the opposite poles of what is looked upon as greatness. One was born twenty years before the other, and died two years after his younger contempo- rary. Look at the latter first. Born to humble rank in the year 1769, he rose to be the absolute ruler of the greatest military nation of his time, master of almost the whole of Eu- rope, dictator of the destinies of every European nation except Brit- ein and Russia, and dreamer of far greater fields of conquest in the Far East and the Far West. Dying at fifty-two years of age he left the marks of ravage and burning from Portugal to Russia, from the shores of Britain to those of Egypt and Sy- ria, and the fields of almost every country in Europe whitened with the bones of the multiudes of men he had caused to be slain. Napoleon is the type of man' whom most men in this world call great. The older man was born in 1749, the son of a poor village parson, With the exception of short spells of study in London, he spent all his life as a country doctor in the village where he was born. On one occasion he refused an appointment in Lom- don worth $50,000 per annum that he might remain in his little village and prosecute his studies and discoveries, Yet that humble village doctor saved far more lives than Napoleon de- stroyed, and touched and blessed millions who never heard the name of Napoleon, He was Edward Jen- ner, the man who discovered vacei- nation as a means to fight the fright- ful plague of smallpox which was decimating humanity, He died in his country village at seventy-four years of age, two years after Napeol- eon died on St, Helena, and poor peasants in Russia put up his ikon among the images of their saints, and yellow and brown people in far India and China were ready to in- clude him in the pantheon of their gods. Jenner is a type of the man whom Jesus calls great, He served his fellowmen, In these two men.we have in con- crete forms the contradictory con- ceptions of greatness of the world and of Jesus Christ. The mass of men are dazzled by the man who gets glory, vast possessions and power for himself, and they do not scrutinize too closely how he gets it. They ap- ply the title "Great'" not to kings and princes who have labored for the peace and prosperity, happiness and security of their people, but to those who, like Alexander of Macedonia, Peter of Russia, Frederick of Prus- sia and Napoleon of France, have built their empires on the corpses of their subjects, and have made them- selves famous or infamous through the blood and tears of humanity. In his day men called Louis XIV. of France "Le grand monarque." For what heason? He it was who said, when someone mentioned the wel- fare of the state: '"L'etat, c'est moi."--*I am the state." And for the glory of that "I", for the. grati- cation of that vain-glorious self, his seventy-two years of reign left his people in starvation, his' country bankrupt, and the land denuded of men slain in his ceaseless wars. If Germany had won the late war, and its ruler had reigned today as Em- peror of Europe and Lord of the Lands beyond the Seas, the egotisti- cal maniac who is now sawing sap- lings in a Dutch grove would have been known to posterity as William the Great. Why? Because he would have caused to be slain some ten or twenty millions of people, and would " have ground under a tyrant's heel the remainder who mourned for those who were slain, Over against this stupid and false ideal of men, Jesus sets His stand- ard of greatness, that of rendering [RINE You Cannot Buy Bet you can Promote a Clean, Healthy Conartion Remedy Stan, Clear and Healthy, aries Eve ory Co Serco bom Sons Chicas ~ service, The men to whorh He would grant the title of 'Great' are not those who have conquered their fel- low men by the power of arms, and have tuled over them by fear, but those who. have won their fellowmen by love, and have rendered them the tribute of service. Here is His law, the true law, of greatness: "Whoso- ever will be great among you, let him be your minister; and whoso- ever will be chief among you, let him be-your servant; even as the Son of Man came not to be minister- ed unto, but to minister, and to give His life as a ransom for many--I am among you as he that serveth." How slow has the world been in grasping this thought of Christ! The- oretically the Church has always held it. Practically it has often fall- en far below that ideal, Some in the Church have always lived it, and the Church has never been without num- bers of men and women whose one ideal of greatness was that of serv- ice. But because the Church is com- posed of 'fallible men, many in it have fallen for the world's ideal of greatness and worshipped wealth and honors and power, Neverthelesst he thought of Christ is growing and gaining sway. Men are not so easily dazzled as they once were with titles and rank and outward symbols of power. Not alone the Church as a body, but many oth- er organizations are taking as their ideal Christ's ideal, and their stand- ard of greatness the standard of serv- ice, 'Service, not Self. He Profits Most Who Serves Best." The mottd of the Rotary Club is in practice the OSHAWA, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, SERTEMBER 7, 1922 motto of many another club and so-| ciety, and all these, whether they take the name of Christian or not, are helping the Church of Christ to hasten the coming of that time when the title "Great" will not longer be given to conquerors and tyrants, but to those self-forgetful men and wom- en who, like their Master, "Went About Doing Good." This is the One Standard of Greatness. 2 G.0.D.

Fol- low the traced line of the Grand Trunk Pacific westward from Ed- monton to the foothills, and then to the big hills of the Rockies, along the banks of the Athabasca River and into the Jasper National Park, our largest playground area. Then trek farther westward for a few miles to a little lonely wayside station marked '""Mount Robson," a lodge in a vast wilderness, a shelfer for the wayfarer thrust off the ex- press train bound for Prince Rupert. This will be our actual gateway for one of the most wonderful alpine trails in the world, up to and around the base of Robson, one of Canada's highest mountains. y To be accurate, it is scarcely a Lit- tle Trip, unless the phrase is used relatively. At the very start, a halt is made at a log cabin where one outfits 'for the journey, involving pack and saddle ponies, cooks and guides. Soon the cavalry procession starts off, in single file, following the course of the wild, rushing Grand Forks River hurrying to join the Fraser. Ahead rises the gigantic mass of Robson, filling the valley and dwarf- ing all its satellites. magnet, ever luring one, like the Lorelei to its haunts, the music be- ing supplied by the countless streams rather than by sirens. That sixteen mile trail trip is one never to be forgotten--around a It is a mighty | blue-green lake, through ley of a Thousand Falls," like the Lauterbrunnen in Switzerland -- climbing to a thousand-foot-up grade only to climb down- again on the other side, viewing beautiful Niag- aras and ever lifting one's eyes to the snowclad peaks that seem to pierce the sky. But Robson is the king of them all --*a kingly spirit throned among the hills," dominating a wonder-| world of wild nature. Mile after] mile of the arduous way lifts one three thousand feet high to the north- ern base of our magnet mountain | where Berg Oaks receives the aval} anches of ice from twin glaciers. Here we will strike camp, tether] the tired bronhos, build a roaring fire, and put the cook to work. Why| would miss the meals in the open, | the comfort of a balsam bed, the sleep of the happy tired? Who would exchange the after-glow in the | ice-world around, the stillness of the night, or the solemn quiet of a world silvered by the moon, or the musi- cale of the dawn, when Robson's| glow, for anything less prosaic? And then to climb a glacier and afterward a mountain; to trace the paths of the mountain goats; to conquer Nature at ever y point and finally to stand for a few glorious moments-on the roof of the world-- all this makes this Little Trip one of the Biggest and Best in the world.
