But the British Empire has been built and rebuilt on different plans more than once. After the last war it was very largely reorganized along the lines of decentralisation. It is very likely that a new set of world conditions following this war will make further rebuilding necessary. And if you believe that this strongs and unique political aggregation known as the British Empire serves to give the world ideals and princi­ ples, and an example, which the world badly needs, then you trill find yourselves called and sumfnon- ed to have a part in that rebuilding so that a structure may be reared fitted and adapted to serve the world order that will emerge from the chaos of the present time.

And so may Indeed it is only in that way our work is a liberty where Christ has made us free. In the institutions our new g charac­ ters, we must exercise our sovereign freedom, just as we must use our wisdom. We must be bold, ready if necessary to strike out on new lines, although our wisdom should always make us heedful of what we can learn from the past. God wants us to work as wise master builders, exercising the rights of master builders. A Wise Master Builder But there is one qualification to all this, and it is in our text. What constitutes you a wise master build­ er? How do you know you are. en­ titled to that “According* to which is given apostle, I can builder. Your grace of God given you. of God in your hearts, wisdom and strength you can build nothing that will stand when the winds blow and the storms beat. Only if the grace of God is in your hearts are you wise master builders. Remember, when all is said and done, this is God’s world, and only what is of God can endure in it. If you are inspired of God, if you are ready to be His instruments, then with consecrated talents throw yourselves heart and soul into the building tasks that are before you. In that fashion do your work. And do it without boasting .or without feeling that credit for the achieve­ ment is yours. Give the glory where it rightfully belongs. Give it to God by Whose grace you have been able to do acceptable work. It is all of sentence, of God? which is and truth came by Jesus Christ.” Upon their return to the lodge rooms a vote of thanks was tender­ ed to Mr. Hill for his -excellent dis­ course, church honorable name? the grace of God me,’’ declared the work as a master qualification is the The grace In your own ARM IS (’AUGHT BY CIRCULAR SAW Bert MacKay, well known Tucker­ smith farmer, received severe in­ juries to his arm when it came in contact with a circular saw on .Friday. Mr. MacKay was assisting in sawing wood at the farm of John Davidson, London Road, moving the saw his arm, in some manner, was caught by the saw. He also received injuries to his leg. The wound required 40 stitches to close.yiresfone AT ROCKBOTTOM PRICES The Christian Church also is be­ ing attacked today by those who ■would rejoice to see it crashing in ruins. Now I firmly believe that the Church is a divine institution, founded by Jesus Christ, and eternal. But it is also a human institution, and before this men have built their folly and their selfishness into the church, and then claimed divine sanction for the whole building. And more than once these parts have fallen out of the sacred elifice, thereby arousing fears for the safety of the whole building. Now no serious churchman today would deny that there are elements in the church •which are not of God, not blessed of God, and not deserving of His bless­ ing. And it may well be that the stress of the present times will cause the church to be destroyed, as much of it as can be destroyed. It is conceivable that nothing shall be left but the foundations of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief cornerstone. And if that shall be the a gigantic programme of will be necessary.

(Sandy) ELLIOT Leaven- Holmes, June 18 Phone 64 Illustrated—Special De Luxe Totvn Sedan. In welcoming the Lebanon Forest lodge, and visiting members of the Masonic order to worship with us this evening, I want to make it clear j *hat in speaking to them I labour } under the handicap of being an out- > sider. A sympathetic outsider it is I true, for both my grandfathers, my father and my brother were mem­ bers of the craft, and there is no group of four men for whose Christ­ ian character I hold greater admir­ ation. So an order to which they were proud to belong and to which they gave their loyalty command my respace thetic interest. Nevertheless, only from the what I say to under the disadvantage of not ing how relevant it is to your work. But I understand that you endeav­ our to picture life of a building and worthy builders, one of the great constantly in Scripture, one that is profitable for conveying truth to our limited human minds. For in the Bible this same figure of speech is constantly used. Take for ex- ' ample, this. “Other foundation can ] no man lay” or “Ye are built noon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself be- ;ina ‘he chief cornerstone.” And ; Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount I likened our lives to houses, built i either on the sand or upon a rock, j So in making use of the figures of building, you are employing a figure of speech hallowed by the sacred writers and by our Lord himself.

Thd T. AHibtfrn Co., Ltd., Toronto, Ont. v these days when esteem seems to be-,- Not only institutions and the whole edifice of the civilis­ ation we have known, but human character also. For I think it is undoubted that the moral standards of mankind have been deteriorating ever since the outbreak of the first world war. Out own included. For we have all become tolerant of viol­ ence, of gains achieved by violence, of deceit, fraud and infidelity to one’s pledged word by those in high places. We have become tolerant of cynical judgments and selfish mo­ tives. It seems to be an age when the work of former builders is tumbling down, and we are in dang­ er by reason of falling debris rather than an age when new and more worthy building is possible. A great deal is falling down. That is true. But not everything. After all, the only things wliihh are collap­ sing are those which are better down. As we are told in Scripture, the pur­ pose and final result is that these things which cannot be shaken mayi remain. « This is a period of testing, are reminded Jesus told us on sand and rock. Today er M. P. for a Huron constituency, was proprietor and editor of the Clinton New Era During the Laur­ ier administration at Ottawa he was appointed supervisors of cus­ toms at Toronto and the family took up residence there. Rebuilding Character i So much for institutions. There | is also the vastly important task of I rebuilding characters, the souls of ,111011, without which no institutions, (however wisely planned, can func­ tion. I have spoken of the deter­ ioration of character during the past generation, or since (he last war. I do not blame the war por it, not altogether anyway. The root of the trouble goes back at least a genera­ tion farther. Towards the end of the last century there were certain discoveries in the fields of biology and geology, there were certain de­ velopments in the field of Biblical criticism, and there was a school of philosophic skepticism which flour­ ished. I do not propose to discuss these movements, or to say what was right and what was wrong in them. But one result of them was that for many people belief in Chris­ tianity, in Christian teaching, was either shaken or destroyed. Now with the loss of their faith these people did not lose their moral standards. By no means. They re­ tained the moral teaching and disci­ pline of Christianity, even though they discarded the doctrinal part. They remained honorable, clean-liv­ ing, high-minded men and women. ! But, here is 'The point. Their cliild- . reu, brought up to reject Christian We doctrine, began also to question Christian morality and to view it as ail irrational restraint. And by the time another generation appeared open license and free rein for all the basest appetites and impulses were frankly defended as right and prop­ er. There you have the story of the I of the two houses] about, the one built] the other built on a ■ the wind, the storm, and the floods are heating upon those houses, and the one is falling, but the other is enduring. And in this fierce testing those things, ____ ___ ___ __ ___ _ which are the work of God stand,' breakdown of character in so many but those which are the work men are not standing. I would say that so far from being useless to talk of building of it ill days like these, this is precisely the time when we should be planning what we shall build. After a cyclone or an earthquake has level­ led half the buildings in a city, the city must be rebuilt, and there is opportunity to rebuild it better and fairer, on an improved plan and us­ ing more durable materials. If you are builders, today you have a call to duty, and an opportunity such as you have not had for many a long year. Among the many institutions which are exposed to devastating assaults at this time, there are two in which we are especially interested. British Empire, and Church, Let. me say the. opportunity for building in regard to British Empire Has Served a Useful Furpose First about the British Empire, submit to you that, under God, this Empire has served and is still men and women. It took a couple of generations to make itself evident hut the root of the trouble is the breakdown in faith in Christianity as a revelation of God and as a way of life. Therefore if you would re­ build characters, if you would re­ store integrity to human souls, you must begin by rebuilding faith, faith in God and in Jesus Chrst. i FOAL CLUB ORGANIZED AT ZURICH Agricultural Representative J.
