M. S. Daae at St. Petersburg An optimistic note for the prospects of the future was struck by Rev- E. Crossley Hunter, D:•D., of First United church, Hamilton, in his address to a large congregation In North street United church on Monday evening. The occasion was the fourth interde- nominational meeting in a eerie, spon- sored by the young people's societies of the five local Protestant churches. Mr. Hunter proved a most itterest- Ing and engaging speaker. He is a son of the late Rev. J. E. Hantur who, accompanied by Rev. H. T. Crossley, conducted successful evangelistic meet- ings throughout Canada over a period of thirty-four years. The coupe. were compared with Paul and Barnabas by Rev. Y. W. Craik, who introduced the speaker. "Bev. E. Crossley Hunter," red Mr, Craik, "1s following 1s his father's footsteps in a most magnificent way." Mr. Hunter chose as his text a verse on the very last page of the Bible, in Revelations: "Behold, I make all things new." "At the begianing pf the Bible, we read of a flood," he ssld ; "this should have signified the end, bat it was really the beginning." He dwelt on numer- ous Biblical references, to wbkh the end seemed imminent, but always It was really the beginning of a better and brighter era. "People say we are coming to the end now," he declared. "It may seem the end to us, but to God It will be an- other beginning. When man comes to the dark day Ood always has some- thing better waiting." 'our wee114petee14 falling us—that la the tragedy of the hour—♦becanse the nations cannot see It. The security of the nations does not rest in arma- ments, we have eome to an end of that kind of security. "We have come to the end of the economic order that seemed so stable in our fathers' eyes. it is braking down before oar eyes."

"The closer 1 get to young people," be said, "the more hopeful I become." Mr. Hunter reinforced the statement of his belief In the fart that the dark- est hour is Just before the dawn by telling the story of Stanley Jones, a missionary to India. Jones, after spending eight years in India, was so broken to health that he felt unable to continue. The voice of the Lord came to him as he sat in a tent in India, and he turned himself over to the Lord, body and snub. Im- mediately, said Jones, he felt a tre- mendous change taking plaee In his poor broken-down body. His strength was rebuilt and he remained preaching for fourteen years. Home on farlongh a year or two ago, he spoke three times a day for ten months in the United States, then came to Canada for eight days. Rev. Mr. Hunter was it member of the committee that sr - ranged the great missionary's Cana- dian itinerary. "When we come to the end," Ise con- cluded, "God has something for us far beyond our fondest dreams." Carleton Worsell, preMdent of the Y.P.S. of North street church, con- ducted the meeting. Ajetating clergy- men were Rev. W. P. Lane, Rev: J. N. 14. Mille, Rev. D. J. Lane, Rev. F. W. Craik and Rev. W. T. Bunt. Miss 11. Pentland sang a solo and the choir contributed an anthem.

Canada Should Advertise Peace Didiefiii-Doimty Governor H. a Lions Club of Goderich At the last meeting of the Goderich Lions Club, the guest of honor was District Deputy Governor H. S. Grill, who addressed his fellow -Lions on the subject "Adrertising Peace." lf, for every eine dollars spent on war materiels and preparations, one dollar were appropriated to be spent on promotion of peace, said Mr. Oriff, sufficient advertising could be done to prevent war for all time. Supposing the military est/mate of Canada to be two millions of dollars, the aPPro- priation for peace would be slightly more than $200,000. With that amount, said tbe speaker, Canada could adeer- tise her opposition to war, and her desert, to make every possible effort to settle all international disputes by arbitratiott. Wars of today and tomorrow should be renamed, said Mr. Grit?. Slaugh- ter is a more suitable term. Ile spoke at length -of the poseibilities of the next war, making ..estatence tal..JIter inrentioalt, particularly gas. new gas ham been manufactured, he said, that needs only to touch tbe skin to cause death It is a oinking gaa that will penetrate Into dugouts and tun- nels, spreading fifty-five times more rapidly than any other previously known gas. Worbt of all it is in - He painted a word picture of a fleet of 500 planes attacking London, each cerrying ten tons of gas. Each plane, mild the +meeker, could cause 200,000 easualtke If old-tIme ware were heroic, said Mr. ()riff, the next one will be silly. There will be no opportunity for 'Vile soldiers of the next war, and civilians too, will have an much chance for heroism as cattle In a Chicago stockyard." The occaaions of war aometlines are faimple, but the causes of war are real Probably the ereatest eatiae of war is fear. and while everyone is talking peeee money being spent like water in preparation for war. The last war was precipitated by military time -table, and when the war, machinery again is perfected war will begin once more, and It will be next impostable to. atop it, he averred.

Carrie writes from St. Petersburg, Florida, March 21: There was great . ouuuotion on the waterfront the day H.M. battleship Dance steamed 1n. There could not have been mach more t,otse when the forgotten and torgiven engagement of the Chesapeake and the Shannor took place. The whole city was out 'Ave. Tbere were two Amer...au battleship. 1n the harbor and all the warships fired off salutes of twenty-one guns and each ship ran up the other coun- try's flag --and 'void Glory" and the Union Jack fraternized during the four days' stay.

We were received by the Cap- tain, a very handsome, debonair gentle- man, and shows all over the ship and then given a earl of tea. We all knew we were receiving this dlstlnetton on the merits of our soldier boys who bebseed .e went- in ----the Greet War. The Captain said he was glad to meet so many of thaw• whom he con- sidered "our own people," and as we looked around and waw all the dread- ful instruments of de.truetion we won- dered how so kindly and gallant a gentleman as tie Captain could give orders for the slaughter of bureau be- ings. Yet we knew he would cud that he would go down with his ship If he had to without a whimper. We thought of Kipling, -There is some- thing In the British atter ell"—some- thing that other people lack.
