Four times during these 00 years Canadians have stood to arms and on two of these occasions troops have fought abroad. These occatdons were the Fenian Raids, the Not th- West Rebellion, the South African War and the Great War of Europe With these interludes the story of the Dominion has been a dome i.' It has been a story of nmol ,::.c': ,n, industry and administration and over all three phases the parliament of Canada have exercised the donicant influence. Quite apart from considerations of parties and the rise and fall of poli. tical movements the chronicle of Cnn- federati'on is without a parallel in the history of democratic government. Never before has such a mere hand- ful of people occupied, achninistered and prospered on such a vast ares of country.

With a popUlaii0n not much greater thatl some of the cities of the World but spread over half a continent, demo- cracy functions in ail its branchez and the citizens prosper. It it; not only a tribute to administrative abil- ity, it is a tribute to Brash parliamen- tary government, which has been proven equally adaptable in the com- pact little crowded islands over the seas and in this great sprawling nat.. ion of British North America.

"When he carne to hlutself," and Mark 14;19, "Lord, is it 1 7" and spoke nn the sub- ject of "Self lexemivatiun," One of the conditions of the developanerlt of the soul is self examination. The Prodigal Son saw no Hien 0 in life than to eat, drink and be merry until he began to examine himself. Then he saw his mistake and tried to mance amends by returning to his father, The Prophet, after examining him- self, said "Woe 18 me ; I am undone for 1 am a man of unclean lips."
