Tne ark of the |vuvenant had no permanent abiding : place. It had been moved from t place to .place, Each year the Chil­ dren of Israel came to the house of God. It was sort of a family reun­ ion. It was to Jerusalem, the fixed abode of the temple* that the people came year after year. It was to this temple that Jesus came as a boy. It fe a grand thing to have some room, some spot in the garden, some meet­ ing-house where you can have com­ munion and fellowship with God, Christ came that he might have con­ tact with the human soul. Paul said that ye are the temple of God; that God is a spirit to be worshipped by the heart. The speaker said that he was not unmindful that in the attempt to build u.p a spiritual temple we do not always succeed. Like David of old his intentions were to build a temple wherein God might be wor­ shipped, but like David our dreams are not always fulfilled. You may have a vision, a desire to attain to something noble but you may be handicapped and not attain the ideal or the perfection that you have in mind. There is no man perfect. We have our limitations. Like other societies the Masonic Order is some­ times criticised. Jesus Christ had the first secret society. They gather­ ed about Him and listened to His words of wisdom but there was one who was false to his trust. Christ wants not the man who is perfect in his own conceit, but the man who is a sinner and wants to do better. Sol­ omon said: "it was in my father’s heart to build a Temple.” The great Architect appreciates any attempt that is made for the betterment of self, the community or the nation. If David had not made the prepara­ tion for the building of the temple, had not laid the foundation, it is doubtful if the :emple would ever have been built. Ideas, liberties, op­ portunities have been handed down from generation to generation. It is only in this way that the continuity of the church, of society and of your order can be carried on. We are all builders trying to build a temple of life. We should so build that the temple will not be in vain but will be something worth while. The world is looking at your life and mine and to be worth while it must be conse­ crated to the service of God and manity. Neither the church nor Masonic Order can bring in that which we desire to see unless build on the high calling which is in Jesus Christ. Like David let your intentions and motto be high and up­ lifting and you will leave something worth while that who come after might rise greater perfection as followers and builders with God through Jesus Christ. A delightful quartette "The City Foursquare” was sung by Mrs. Ar­ thur Gardiner, Mrs. John Hodgert, Wm. Moodie and Wm. Cann and a duet "In the Garden” by Mrs. Ar­ thur Gardiner and Rev. Mr. Mair, strange things are done to satisfy the cravings of the human heart. DEATHS MAKINS—In Stephen Twp., nesday, June 29th, Benjamin Ma­ kins in his 67th year.

While we may look for a time when there will be no more death there is another sense in which we may take our test. Death may be destroyed by ceasing to be an enemy. This is the best way of de­ stroying every enemy. If death should lose its sting then it would be destroyed as our enemy. The sting of death is sin so St. Paul de­ clared. Death is an enemy because we who die are sinners. You may reject that sentiment and speak of men and 'Women who were good yet they have died and yo.u were unable to convince yourself that their death whs anything but a disaster. There is a strange -mingling of Virtue and vice in all of us. Sinners have been redeemed and renewed by the grace of God. Saints have felt that death is not wholly an enemy. St. Paul said "To depart and be with Christ which is far better.” Death is hot an enemy because In large measure the sting of death which is. Ch has b§en 'repioved/ ThlsTs the verdict ot,,^ex­ perience 'but our reluctance to accept death aS a friend is never wholly overcome. NOr will it be. as long hs sin and gUilt have any part, in us. That is why death remains the last enemy to. be. destroyed. When4right-, eousness reigns supreme-;then- death Will no longer be looked ttbon with misgivings, but rather ag the door­ man-who ushers us into that home Of many mansions.
