CORNER STONES
Rev, George A. Milne, M.A.
Christian Marriage,—(5)
In the study of a subject such as
Christian Marriage certain features
emerge which cannot lightly be
passed over or treated in such a way
as to leave the answers veiled in
semi-ub:ecturlt.y,
Marriage is like so nanny tither
things in life—like music, like liter-
alnre—tile inure one brings to it, the
more one (leis out of it- -and the
more 0110 is able to give through
it to those around. Each one brings
to nmriiage some contribution of
body, of 111111d, and of spirit.
In the first place there is the
offering of the body, Physical health
and wholeness is one of the offerings
wh eh must he brought. In these
modt:n day.::, the home and society
combine to establish a fairly high
standard of persanal heal:hitless.
This, however, should never be so
Presented upon that those about to
marry r,hould forgo a medical exam-
ination. What is not so certain is
that either the 'home or society have
taken enough trouble to give to the
701110 pers;tn a healthy attitude
towards the body and its functions,
it'(,, extremely important that young
and old learn to appreciate the
dignity, the worth, and the wonder
of this. physical life of 0005. It (s ill
.the home and in the sc11oo1 that the
young elan and woman can be given
o sane and healthy point of view
towards their own bodies and can be
taught to understand and to rever-
ence them and to Keep them fit and
wholesome as a rightful contribution
to their future parenthood and 111e
future of the community_ It is pos-
itively ridiculous as well as• un-
Chrlstiaii to hold the view that
young people must be allowed to sow
their wild oats. Such a view accepts
Immorality as pant of our social
order, void regards things sexual as
being synonymous with things sen-
sual. A Cilu•istian society must exact
the sante aboral .standard from met
as it does front tro111011
Then there is the offering of the
mind as a second contribution to
Christian marirage, Mental health
and a teethed intelligence contribute
sanity and harmony to any liartner-
ehip. Mental health will include
self-knowledge and the understand-
ing of others both of which come
from having haat to give and take
either in a large family circle or in
an intimate group of friends. It is
of the utmost importance that those
,who are going to live in`suolt close
Intimacy as adorned life should know
what it means to consider other
People, and should be able to listen
to otters, and to sympathise, Soc-
iety, through institutions .such as the
family, the school, and the Church,
should afford all possible opportunit-
ies for young men and young women
getting to know one another and
shelling in mental and social par -
suits,
Thirdly there is an offering of
the Spirit, An attitude of life and
In God is involved here. The more of
self-control, Of .pstieuoe, of the
love that suffereth lend and is kind,
that is brought by each to the new
partnership, the more likely it is
to he to the glory of God, While it Is
true that marrgaie atones a school
for the practice of Chmistion virtues,
it is- also tette that it makes the
exercise of them the more possible,
because of the faith idle one has In
the other.

Your Spport Solicited
The Canadian Legion B. E. S. L. has purchased the
Thompson property in the business section of Brussels. The
downstairs of these premises will be used for a hall for the
Legion members' and the Legion Ladies Auxiliary now formed.
We assisted the boys when they were overseas and now that
they are nearly all home we desire to keep them together in
that comradeship gleaned in the services. If any one wishes
to make a cash donation to this project to assist the boys it
will be gratefully received. Donations may be left with the
secretary O. Doll.
