disciples needed to procure a pawls%)
lamb, unleavened bread and bitter
herbs. Tho lamb was to be slain in
the temple between 3 and 5 o'clock in
the afternoon of the fourteenth of
Nisan, and cooked in a private house.

I. The Passover pointing to Christ
The Passover WaS a feast of redemp-
tionter foresnadowing a fu-
ture and greater redemption. It corn-
neemorated Israel's exodns from
Egypt and was celebrated as the birth-
day of the Hebrew nation. It was a
celebration of joy, Jerusalem was the
scene of great crowds at the time of
this Int Passover which Jesus cele-
brated with his diaciples. The shadow
of the greatest tragedy in the world's
history hung over them as they went
te the guest chamber. Jesus deeired
to make his convereeswith his disciples
at that Passover a strength rind .con-
solation to them agaInst the sore
temptations they were about to en-
counter. He did not rax hies thought-
ful cousideration of them; yet that
circle of intimate asseciatee, thorgh
athered in private, had a sorrow un-
folded to them which originated in
their small. group. Jesus had more
than once predicted that be would be
betrayed. At this time he made the
terrible announcement that it should
come by one of Chet company. The
traitor was eminent in office and pro-
fession. So artful ewes his deception
teat none of the other disciples sus-
pected him. He was the last to expreea
any suspicion of himself. It was an oc-
casion ef dismay among the apostles,
yet r evealicg simple unsuspecting
brotherliness among them. Judas
heard his crinie described in its own
dark reallty. He heard his fate pro-
claimed from lips which spoke oaly
rtheolute truth. He knew that he as
out of plane in that upper room where
he was made to realize the awful and
utter loneliness of sin and the base -
nes of a false confession of Christ.
determination was fixed to do evil,
unshakca by the knowledge that it
was evil. His sin presents one of the
inoet perplexing problems of human
character. The Passover, which was
intended to recall God's great deliver -
elect: of his anctent people had no deep
mantra: to him, nor did ho behhold
its fulfilmeet in Christ. The mest hon-
ored leaders were joined in plotting
against Christ, and Judas joined. in
their stratagem, only to be cast out
from God's people.
H. The sacrament in, memory of
Christ. The Lord's supper was the
natural outgrowth of the Passover. It
was the spiritual institution which
Christ founded on that ancient rite,
and perpetuated in a spiritual sense
the general meaning of the Passover.
The Jewish Feast had been instituted
to foresbadow what the Christian fes -
tit al was founded to commemorate.
The meaning and purpose of the Pass-
over were transferred to Jesus. An-
cient Israel had lived for nearly twO
thousand years under the cbarter of
their national existence when Jesus
put away that covenant and became
the true offering and sacrifice. He
established a new covenant, sealed
with his own blood, under the condi-
tions of which the whole -,vorid might
find salvation. The two great feasta
of Judaism and Christianity are thus
vitally connected. The long series of
observances, begun in Egypt, reached
their end in. Christ. Jesus led his dis-
ciples to regard the Passover aa being
representativee of his mediatorial suf-
ferings and death, and as the origin
of an ordinance to bo perpetuated
through all ages of the Christian
church. All Old Testament teachings,
histories, prophecies and events were
a preparation for Christ's death on the
cross. Jesus was eager to inake e his
disciples realize the nearness of the
great gift he would purchase for them
and to give them a pledge of it for
their assurance. Using the comn1on
articles of food, Jesus made them sym-
bolize himself. In breaking the bread
Jesus indicated his voluntary Sur-
render of himself to death. Distribut-
ing the bread to his disciples suggeated
their complete dependence upon Christ
for salvation. To use the wine as well
as the bread gives the thought of
completeness. The blood is the life.
The Lord's supper is a sacrament and
not a sacrifice, an affectionate memo-
rial bringing to remembrance the self
-
devotion of the Redeemer,

along with the persconel of the new
Cabinet. Por the time being Hon. Mr.
Hearst will hold the dual position of
First Minister and President of the
Executive Council and Minister of
Lands. Forests and Mines. Hen, Fin-
ley G. Macdiarmid, member for West
Elgin, is the only new figure in the
Cabinet, and takes the portfolio of
Public Works in succession to Hon.
Dr. Ileaume.
The most important change noted
is the omission of Sir Adam Beck as
Minister without portfolio, although
he will still remain as chairman of
the Hydro -Electric Power Commis-
sion, Hon. I. B. Lucas stepping in as
the representative of the Executive
Council. In explaining this circum-
stance, Hon. Mr. Hearst said last
night: "Por a long thee Sir Adam
has wished to devote his whole time
to the work or the Hydro -Electric
Power Commission, and at his own
wish has been left out of the Cabinet,
although, as a matter of fact, the old
Cabinet dissolyed."
FYNE AND HANNA DECLINE,
The official statement given out
last night reads as follows:
"On Wednesday Lieutenant-Govor-
nor Sir John Gibson, who remains in
office until his succesor is sworn in,
sent for the Hon. Dr. Pyne for con-
sultation, Attorney -General Foy, the
senior member, of the late Govern-
ment, not being sufficiently recovered
from his recent illness to be seen in
connection with public business. Dr.
Pyne has been acting as chairman of
the Executive Council for some time
past, and was obviously the Minister
to be consulted, he snaking no claim
to the succession himself, but clearly
and distinctly intimating that he
would refuse absolutely to assume the
responsibility. it was also under-
stood that the Hon. Mr. Hanna was
not prepared to accept the Premier-
ship under any circumstances, and on
the advice of Hon. Dr. Pyne his honor
sent for the Hon. W. H. Hearst, Min-
ister of Lands, Forests and Mines,
and requested him to assume the
Premiership and the task of reorgan-
ization of the Government. Mr. Hearst
intimated his willingness to undertake
the responsibility, asking for time to
consult with his colleaguesof the late
Government, who at dice placed their
several portfolios at his dielmsaL
"The Hen. Sir Adam Beck will con-
tinue Chairman of the Hydro -Electric
Power Commission, but, in accordance
with tho views entertained for sqme
time by him and the late Government
that it would be advantageous to have
the Provincial Treasurer as a member
of the HydrodClectrie. Power Commis-
Sioe, Hon. T. 13. Lucas will take the
position on the Commission that the
act requires to be filled by it member
of the Executive Council."
