George A, M.lne, Honesty and Truthfulness (2) Melly people have the idea that we cannot be expeoted to show the carne standard of transparent honesty in our business dealings with the world at large as we would show in private matters towards our own friends: Indeed it bias often been said that 1t is impossible to be quite honest ix the hard world of business, and that. anyone who tried it would soon find h1nesellt "frozen out." It is often maintained that: stern necessity driv- ea even welt -intentioned Christian people to accustom themselves to Practices which are not quite straightforward, and that this is the only practicable policy if a man 1s tosurvive in the business world at all. Yet, on .the other hand, it has become a proverb that "honesty is the best policy." Well, both of these ideas can not be true. Which of them has the truth? Probably the truth is halt -way between them. Up to a certain conventional standard, hon- esy in business does pay, for no man can continue to prosper in business unless his customers or clients find that "his word is as good as his bond," and that his goods are usually "up to sample." But beyond that 'conventional standard' there is sometimes a wide margin, in which men successfully practice little ".tricks of the trade?' of which they are half ashamed; and It. may be true that other more scrup')ious men suffer and lose:becaese they will not practice these, little dishonesties. For us, however, who are trying to see what the Christian way of living is, the primary question is not 'wiretber honesty is the best policy in the worldly sense, We meet be quite prepared to accept the feet that a man may sometimes lose heav- ily through bis honesty• and we must never doubt that it is worth it, just because it is not profitable to gain the whole world and lose one's own soul. Jesus calls us not to a merely decent worldly standard, but to the heroic path which He trod Himself; .and .since--it-led- H#m••--to° the Cross, need we be surprised she work had been demo recently ^n that it will involve sacrifice for us?. township bridges but that work will • have to be done as soon as labour and mate-lals are availahle.

A contrast was . drawn between the manner in which modern. Christians fail their vows as .compered with the answering, loyalty displayed by the Bible heroes. The anthem was, "Sing of Hope and Peace," by Sauce During the service the Sacrament. of Holy Baptism was administered to Susan Jane Martin,. The dramatic and proving story of Christ's meeting with the woman of Samaria was the basis of the evening meditation.
