QU'EEN'S GOVERNMENT GOES ON
Political meetings during a .general
election . eampaiggn, even though not held
in_ as many Small centres as years ago, still
serve a good purpose in strring up publii hi-
terest in national issues, that are quies-
cent. at other times. • Speeches Of party
. leaders and .their campaigners are parti-
san, 'their statements in many- instances
controversial, but they give the electors a
basis en which to think things out and ar-
rive at conclusions. Many will vote for
individuals, rather than party, but pub-
lic,. discussions of natters concerning all
Cantfdians is edifying.
Some public speakers are themselves
a little hazy about the ,mac ii ery -of gov-
ernment. We . hear predictions, for ex-
ample, that Mr. Diefenbaker. will ,"form
a government" or "head the next govern-
ment." Another leader may do so, but
not John ; he is head of a government
how, and unless it loses a Jot of support-
ers on June 18 he will keep right on as
- . Prime- Minister. Parliament, to he sure,
• has been dissolved, there are. no MPs; but
the Queen's government must go on, and
her exkutive continues _ in office unless
and .until.it'is shown to have lost, the eon-
., fidence'`of the electorate:''"' _
In the official booklet, . How'" Parlia
governmental pyramid in Canada and
wielding the actual executive power, is the
Prime .Minister together with- the, inem
berg of his Cabinet, who are members
of Parliament personally selected by him
-and rippointyd by the Governor General
'to the Queen's, Privy Council for Canada
. When policy. decisions are to be made,
the. -Cabinet meets as a body of minis-
ters and not a's the Queen's Privy Conn-
ell. for Canada. It is in this' capacity that
they- determine the legislative program."
Normally, Cabinet members have been
elected to the ,House of ,Commons, as we
call our Lower House. It is an .ancient
term, adopted at� Confederation when
through the British North America Act
the Dominion was given a constitution
`'similar in. prineiple to„ tha .,,of the United
Kingdom."� "Commons" had and has
meaning in 'the British Isles, but we in
Canada have no House of 'Lords nor titled
caste, and it is surprising that no move
is made to substitute a more suitable
name. The ' United States of America,
which carried into its statutes much Brit-
ish phraseology, . avoided "Commons" as
inappropriate to young nation profess-
ing• to bel#eve that all men are born free
and equal. Though the Congress has two
chambers, the lower one bears a title about

of devotion, 'Ode 'whb lived a

help and encouragement which
comes to those who wait upon

to slow that renewal of strength

To me there is something very
satisfying in this thought. It
Is indeed granted to few to
mount the hill of vision where
the prophet and the saint may
stand, but, says this latter writ.
r, all of us can progress if
we truly ""wait upon the Lord."
Lie e on all 'levels is a difficult
matter. It is . over 2500 years
since the prbphet Isaiah wrote
these words and they still ap-
peal. They have been • a source
sof encouragement' And strenh
ening sown through the long
centuries. "They that wait up --
un the Lord shall renew their
strength; they shall Mount up
with .wings aseagles; they shall
run and not he weary, and they
shall 'walk and not faint."
"They that wait upon the Lord
shall renew their strength; they
shall mount up with wings as
eagles; they shall run and not
be weary, and they shall walk
and not faint."
"They snail uloulit up with
Wings as 'eagles" Who? They
that wait upon the Lord. This
"waiting" is not merely a pass-
ing call but an abiding in Him,
not a single act but . an attitude.
In other words , not a restless
wanderer turning to God in
.line of need or trouble;, even
the most indifferent de that,
in a crisis, but the habitual wor-
ship and service of one whose
heart has been yielded up to
God.
Note the suggestiveness of
the prophet's language "mount
up with wings not the dead
level of humdrum life but a
glorious and . rare experience.
"Life with wings!!" the whole
idea of -loftiness is implied—
high courage, .high ideals and a
high sense of duty. It is a life
