The Bishop pointed out the inconsistency of professing belief in Jesus Christ, and at the same time disregarding His last command, The motives for mssionary work were sand to be the Master's command, our know- ledge of the condition of women and children where Christianity is not at work and the constraining influence of the love of Christ, The greatest difficulty is with the men. It is rare now to find a woman who expresses disbelief in missions, women have learncd better. Thoughtful men and women to- day know that great movements are at work, the issues of which must be settled according to the Chris- tian ideal if they are to be settled aright, This is an urge to mission- ary effort. In our country simple patriotism» would seem to suggest the earnest preaching and practice of Christianity if the future is to be secures against the teachings of Cemmunism and Bolshevism, Christ claimed to be the Light of the world and where Christianityhas penetra- ted effectively the result has been like the rising of the sun as it dis- pels the darkness of the night. Rarely is the missionary case so well and eloquently put, and tne congregation who were fortunate enough to hear the address will have happy memories to provide stimulation to Christian endeavor. WHITBY IS READY FOR BOWMANVILLE (By Staff Reporte) Whitby, Feb. 21.--All is in readi- ness for the play-off game at Burns' Arena tonight when the locals will come against the fast travellig Bowmnanville aggrega- tion. A win or a oss means much for either team and Whitby is anxious to pile up a good lead.

He made the plea that only by the co-opera- tion and help of every ex-service man could the Legion be made a strong organization to care for those who were breaking down in health as the result of thelf war having a branch, He urged that the service, and who would, in the next ten to fifteen years, be. falling by the wayside because they had given of their best in the service of their country. : M. McIntyre Hood The closing address, by M. McIn- tyre Hood, also made a strong ap- peal to the ex-service men of Osh- awa to line themselves up in the ranks of the Legion to serve Can- ada in time of peace as they did in time of war, Taking as the basir for his message the words, "British Empire Service League," the speak- a country with British ideals and institutions, and in strengthening the ties of Empire without which Canada could not fulfil her highest destiny. Spirit of Service The keynote of the address was that the spirit of service was the dominating principle of 'the Cana- dian Legion, service to Canada and to each other as men who had serv- ed in the time of need, and who should still stand ready to do every- thing possible to promote the best welfare of the dominion. A gra- phic picture was drawn of the vast scope of the Legion, as a national body and of the national viewpoint which dominated the deliberations of its dominion conventions. Appeal to Ex-Officers Mr. Hood closed his address with an appeal to the former officers ir time of war to again take places of leadership in the Legion in time pf peace, and to the men of the rank and file to fall in line once more, and to serve under their old offi- cers in order to build up in Osh- awa a branch of the Legion worthy of the community, and having the er stressed the part which the Le- glon could play in keeping Canada respect-and sympathetic support of all classes of citizens. Ald. Douglas proposed a vote of thanks to those who had helped to make the event so successful, and this was carried with cheers, spe- cial praise being given to the band for its share in the program. Many Joined At the close of the meeting, a large number of those present sig- nified thelr intention of joining the local branch of the Legion, and a record attendance is anticipated at the next meeting, to be held on Thursday evening of next week in the, Legion rooms over the market all. $7,500,000 ENDOWMENT TO ENABLE INSTITUTE TO CAR.
