if war did come, it would not involve
great expeditionary forces, and there
fore, conscription for overseas service
would not be a, necessary part of Can

RELIGIOUS READING
FOR LENTEN SEASON
Currents of Thought in Modem
Religion
By E. G.
Article No. 6
A review of current movements of
thought among the Protestant
Churches would not be complete
without a look at the cry “Let us be
one” i.e. the question of the Union of
the Churches. This is a question
about which there is great confusion
and one that demands careful think
ing. To say that Protestants gener
ally are tired of their divisions is but
stating the bare truth. And to say
.that earnest thoughtful men and wo
men are devoting themselves to the
task of finding a common bond, is but
repeating what is already well known.
To find this.common bond, however,
is not as easy as it appears. Tt will
cause something of a shock for me
to say tbat-the Protestant churches
are distinguished more by their dif
ferences than by those things in
which they are supposed to be alike.
I make this affirmation fully cognis
ant of the statement '♦"there are no
fundamental differehces in our be
liefs.” Let.us glance for a moment at
the conclusions reached at the World
Conference on Faith and Order, held
at Lausanne in 1927. The delegates to
this Conference represented 1Q8 nun
Roman communions. They met to
consider the whole series of problems
concerning the Faith, the Church, the
Sacraments and the Ministry which
bore upon the issue of "Re- union.”
There was. unanimity on five points:
(1) that the Church was constituted
by the will of God and not the will
of man; (2) that it had as its Head
Jesus Christ; (3) that it was the
means of man’s reconciliation with
God and was united “in love and ser
vice to be His witnesses and fellow
workers in the extension of His will
on earth until His Kingdom come in
glory”; (4) that it was “One”—holy,
catholic and apostolic; and (5) that
it was known by a number of marks
such as: its possession and acknow
ledgment of the Word of God in the
Scriptures, its profession of faith in
the Incarnation, its administration of
the sacraments, its ministry, and its
being a fellowship "in prayer, in wor
ship, in all means of grace, in the pur
suit of holiness, and in the service of
man,” Is it too much to say that this
argcement —• which in itself is signifi
cant *—- is but the common^ denomin
ation of belief about the Church and
“not” the norm? What it excluded
was of more importance than what it
included. The Conference did not
vebture to touch the basic issue i.e, •
"How is the grace of God ^mediated
to man?'* Is not this where every de
finition of the Church should start?
A glance at the report of the Edin
burgh Conference of 1937 will help
us, This report reveals a more basic
distinction oj looking at the Church.
This is what it says: “Behind all par
ticular statements of the problem of
corporate union lie deeply divergent s
conceptions of the Church. For the
want of any more accurate terms this
divergence might be described as the
contrast between “authoritarian” and
“personal” types of Church.
“We have, on the one hand, an in
sistence upon a divine givenness, in
the Scriptures, in Orders, in Creeds
and in worship,
"We have, on the other hand, an
equally strong insistence upon the in
dividual experience of Divine grace,
as the ruling principle of the "gath
ered” Church, in which freedom is
both, enjoyed as a religious right and
enjoined as a religious duty,” Read
this question through a second time
for the distinction made reveals the
age-long struggle between the insti
tutional and the spiritual Church.
This 'throws us back upon another
question i.e. What is necessary for a
Church? The answers given reveal
more'clearly the great divergence of
belief among the Protestant Church
es, Some insist that the episcopacy is
the one thing necessary: others that
baptism by immersion; still other spe
cific doctrinal standards. The Barth-
ian theology emphasises faith and the
preaching of the Word of God, and
there are those who demand that free
dom is basic-to the experience of di
vine grace.'
If it is believed the distinctive el
ement in Christianity is a ‘"quality”
of life which is the free gift of the
Spirit of God independent of the
of the mediation of any particular in
stitution, then the reunion of the
churches would be unnecessary, in
deed, it might be harmful. Practically
all Christians hold, however, that the
ordinary means of grace are the faith
and sacraments of a visible church
which can be recognized by some de
finite marks. The vital issue there
fore of the whole question of the “Re
union” of the Churches is to discover
those marks, without which no fellow
ship. or institution can truly be called
"Church.”
IS YOUR SEED READY?
(Experimental Farms News)
The quantity and quality of crop
yields 'depend upon many, factors, not
the least of which is the quality of the
seed used. Good seed should be well
matured, large and plump, free from
weed seeds, relatively high in germ
ination and true to variety,
A great many experiments have
been conducted to determine the in
fluence' on yield of fanning and grad
ing cereal, grains in order to separate
out the /larger or heavier seed for
planting, states the Dominion Experi
mental Station, Kakuskasing, Ontario.
The results of the majority of these
experiements indicate that better
yields may be expected from large
plump seed than from ungraded seed
or small or light seed.’.
All grains, clover and grass seeds
intended for planting should be free
from noxious weed seeds. This is es
sential if the farmer hopes to keep his
land clean and to continue to produce
profitable crops. Weeds seriously
compete with crops for moisture and
plant food and sometimes for light.
Cereal grains, clover and grass
seeds as they come from the thresher
are seldom in' a suitable condition for
use as seed. Further cleaning and
grading with some type of seed-clean
ing machine are necessary. The com
mon type of farmers’ grain cleaners
do a fairly efficient job when suitable
sieves for each kind of grain are used
and air blast and grain flow are prop
erly regulated, For best results in j
cleaning clover and grass seeds, the
special equipment used in seed clean-|
ing plants may be necessary. Sec i

Completing the Picture of a
Golden Wedding
Mrs. Allen Quickfall, of Bridgeport, Ont., had just
arranged a huge bouquet of Chrysanthemums, their
Golden Wedding Remembrance from assembled chil
dren and grandchildren, when the telephone rang. It
was a call from Kindersley, Sask., and the voice of
Roy, her son, greeted her. What a surprise on such a
day! Mrs. Quickfall writes: “We like to pass on to
other sons and mothers the value and satisfaction to be
obtained through, the medium of telephone contacts,
, particularly so when the dear ones are
scattered over the country.”
• Why wait for a Golden Wedding? Next
time there is a family celebration call
’ up by Long Distance. Make it a real
surprise. And remember this, it costs
so little, you too, will be surprised!
Tune in on “BEAUTY THAT ENDURES”
Every Tuesday and Friday, Station CKNX 11.15 a.m.
tion on cleaning grain and small
seeds. i
Since it is necessary for the farmer1
to prepare his seed with care, now is
a good time to do it. Do not put off
the task until seeding time has arriv
ed. Valuable time may be lost at a
job which by' better management
might have been done weeks before,
states E. J. Doyle, of the Experimen
tal Station, Kapuskasing, Ont.
Now that the seed-borne diseases
such as bunt or stinking smut of
wheat, covered smut _of barley and
the smuts of oats, may be successful
ly controlled by treating the seed with
the new ethyl mercury phosphate
dusts, which can be purchased under
various trade names, this operation
may also be carried out prior to seed
ing time. Seed requirements, howev
er, should be estimated rather closely
as unrequired treated grain is unsafe
for feeding purposes.
SALMON HAS A
FESTIVE COLOUR
Canadian salmon is one of the
most interesting and colourful foods.
And Canadian salmon is rich with
vitamins and minerals for body build
ing. When you open a can of sal
mon, conserve the rich fish oil — it
contains the same health-building in
gredients that are .found in expensive
cod liver oil. And crush the bones'
and add them to the recipe — they I
contain, calcium, which is vital to pro- j
per bone formation in children. I
This Canadian jellied salmon makes
an interesting party dish, an appetiz- j
ing main course for the family dinner. |
With potato salad and hot rolls or(
biscuits and a green vegetable it’s a’
meal to serve often.
Canadian Jellied Salmon
2 cups Canadian salmon
*/z teaspoon salt-.
2 tablespoons green peas
(optional) s
14 cup cold water
Juice of 1 lemon
1 sliced hard-cooked egg
1 tablespoon plain gelatine
1% cups hot water
Soak the gelatine in cold water,
then dissolve in hot water. Cool.-
Flake the salmon, add the lemon
juice, salt, egg, peas, and gelatine
mixture. Pour into a large mould
(rinsed in cold water) or in 6 indi
vidual moulds. Chill. When ready to
serve, unmould on lettuce.
If there is any of this jellied Can
adian salmon leftover — which we
doubt — it can be allowed to stand
at room temperature and used to fill
hollowed out tomatoes, cooked onions
or placed in tiny muffin tins and used
for luncheon the next day. Serve with
a generous baked potato, or combine
with rice or macaroni.
