TRURSDAY, JAN. 16th, 1.017 y
The British Cabinet has decided to
adoptthe WAT >$snap System Which,
Is now, used to Canada and by means
of which a large rovettue Is derived to
aid In the carrying on of the war,
and to practically unnoticed by the
people from whom it is levied. This
system, it will be remembered, wise
drat introduced by Sir Thowas Wbite,
0016ta of finance, was very Lunch
ridiculed by the Opposition press,
., « .
However, after all is said and done,
the chief British motive in this sear
to not to gratify hatred of the German
or tp" seep vengeance against him for
the enormities he has committed.

A large number of deserters from

manding Military District No. 1,
London, Ontario, under the amnesty of
His Excellency, the Glovenor-General,
which expired on Deoeaaber the 15tb,

)extension-ofParliament .
Upon the threshold. of the par•
liamentary session a very notable
cb�uge has come' over "the political'
situationi. Whereas a month or two
ago there was considerable talk of the
Opposition refusing an exteusiob of
parliament and compelling a general
talection, ' there is now a growing
° .belief, based upon reports from all
Oyer the country, -that ,the liberal
leaders will shrine, from throwing the
Dominion into the turmoil and chaos
of a contest at tae polis. and that the
• session will likely be happily free from
the petty bickerings and odious
passions which marred the deliberat-
ions of the Commons last year. There
are several very sufracent reasons for
the general change of heart. In the
first piaco Opppsition.leaders•who have
. recently been engaged in taking the
political temperature of the courtly,

your faithful sersicesas secretary treasur•

in our splendid welfare should not go

class you have taken much trouble to
make, the Sunday school lessons interest,
Ing and profitable to all the class, We
believe, also that the splendid financial
report for the past year with the, good

of the untiring zeal and painstaking
effort, You have not spared yourself in
your endeavour to make every branch of
the churches work a success. Such
work and labor of love, such time silent

without any expectation of reward is
worthy at least of our mr,dgnition. Vire
therefore ask you to accept thio socretary

services. We feel assured that your
interest in the Sunday School and larger

unkindness. '
Presently this debate died down,
and n h
n a now phase of the controversy
was aroused,
, with a speech, in so far
as Canada is concerned, made by
General Alderson, in which he seem-
ed to express the belief that men
whose past 11 -yes had not been sueb
as. to give tlfem a clear title to ever -
!acting joy, yet paid their debt to sin
i -hen they died fighting for their
:ountry, and that for this supreme
sacrifiee "God would take them to
'iinmelf," This, of course, aroused
,the combative instincts pf the strictly
orthodox, and the question has not
been settled to this day,
'Che direct effect of war on the bel-,
ligerent nations is reviewed in "Cur-
rent History," by Rev. Sidney Al.
i3erry, Pastor "of Carr's Lane Church,
Irmingham, one of the fa.rgeot in
England. He says that at the he
'ginning of the• war there was observ-
ed in all countries directly Involved
,i marked tendency to turn to their
^.hurch for consolation and guidance.`
The morn desperate the plight of the
nation the more passionately it turn -
td to religion, In Germany where
the life of the people before the war
had been more notably alienated from
religion than in any other European
country, the turn to religion was
different from that of other nations.
In Germany the people went back to
church to sing their songs of victory,
to follow the example of theirKaiser,
who on one memorable occasion pub•
licly thanked God for having eo
"magnificently supported" one of his'
sons in battle. The German people
called upon Odin gather than upon
Christ. They saluted the God of
War.
It was in a different spirit that
Vie other countries returned to their
altars. With them all other help bad
failed, as It seemed. They called
upon God because human succor
semed vain, and Mt. Berry says that
those countries which have borne the
brunt of war have been more devout
in their supplications than the others
,;vhich have been less directly affect-
ed, France has turned back to the
church, and three years ago ther6
used to be interna.tignal wails over
the failure of France to pay atten-
