Red, White and Blue
For Baby's Nursery
Babies vote for red, white and
blue in their color schemes. At
least, recent experiments in the
United States have proved that
babies distinguish colors only in
their pure state. Mother may think
pastel shades more suitable for
the nursery but His Majesty would
not agree. A color scheme that
would please him would be white
flat finish paint for the wall, and
1 for the furniture read and blue
en am'el.

I chose to read .. .
One Day at a Time
the autobiography of Robert
John Renison for three reasons. I
remember well in 1932, when Canon
Cody became president of the Uni-
versity of Toronto, that Dr. Reni-
son, taking his place, became
rector of St. Paul's Church; I
remember his stirring weekly ar-
ticles in the Globe and Mail. a
few yearS ago; and finally the
title of the book entranced me. As
a philosophy, it could well be our
salvation,
It is hard to put into words the
charm ,of this boek. The imagin-
ation is staggered by the amazing
fullness of his life, The enthus-
iasm with which he first, and then
Mrs. Renison entered upon each
new venture is to be marvelled at.
Robert John Renison was Irish
'and, like many of his fellow-
countrymen, a superb story-teller.
When he was five years old his
father answered an appeal for a
missionary to the Ojihway Indians
on Lake Nipigon. He and his
brothers and sisters learned early
to speak the Indian language.
Their .basic training in English
came ' from reading the Bible
through twice a year. By the time
,he was ten he could read 'both
Latin and Greek, The following
year he was sent to the first and
only school he attended, Trinity
College School in Port Hope. In
1892 he entered, on scholarship,
University College in Toronto and
living at Wycliffe, took classes in
theology. Ile began missionary
work among the Indians, during
his summer holidays "at the ripe
age of seventeen."
The story flows along swiftly.
Laughter bubbles between the
lines, for he has a sly sense of
humour, which he reveals in both
anecdote and comment. For ex-
ample, he describes one of the
1 intheM o ones used pl oos nee a ea
as a "Museum piece , . held to-
gether by centrifugal force". His
descriptive style is precise and
picturesque. You can almost see
the lambant stars hanging low in
the northern skies. The wealth of
historical background that inter-
lards the narrative makes history
real. The place of the Indian, the
Eskimo, the Hudson's Bay Com=
pany, the modern mining corpor-
ations form a mosaic that is
Canada past and present. •
His life spanned,a quarter of the
last century and over half of this
one. He began and ended his work
with the Crees on the -shores of
James and Hudson's Bay. He was
rector of the 'Church 'of the Moen-
Men in Hamilton and Christ
Church in Vancouver as well as
St Paul's, Toronto. He was Dean
of New Westminster and Bishop
of Athabasca., While he was Bishop
of Moosonee he Was elected Metro-
pelitan of Toronto, an honour he
considered for his missionary dio-
Mao. He loved and understood his
people. He built a living memorial
in their hearts and lives. His lust
1 for life and zeal for sere service pu se
in the gages, and under 'all 'there
is the foundation of true huMility.
The crux of his philosophy is

mints in the Canadian Atomic

the ancient book of Deuteronomy
there are a couple of sentences of
the farewell song of Moses which
the dying hero left to his people.
They are words for all ages, es-
pecially for our own nervous
generation.
'As thy days, so shall Thy
strength be , , . The eternal God
is thy refuge, and underneath are
the everlasting arms .. . '
Here is a promise which is
medicine for people' who have come
to believe 'that common folk are
merely • pawns ,on it chess board
of pitiless sky. Not as your life,
not as your years are, but as your
days so shall yoUr strength be.
One day at a time is all we have,
The way to live in any period of
history, 'hut especially in years
like these, is just a' day at
time . • ;Half the horrors of the
world are the anticipation of what
never comes. If God had meant
us to bear the burdens of matt
month, He would have given us
the the power to see that far."

POISON—tin heavy, rush-hour
traffic when vehicles are moving
at a snail's pace, close together,
or in a closed garage, the danger
of carbon monoxide fumes is great-
est Never start your car in 'the
garage with the doors shut, or
drive with the windows closed,
Keep at least one window open an
inch or two, arid, in heavy traffic,
switch the heater off or to "inside
air". Carbon monoxide gas is
odorless so never depend on your
senses la; lot you know when you
are in danger, As in all driving,
never take a chance. Be sure!
