He anlso explained n o 1 h € \ 1 reason why a Beneficiary 14'uncl was Continued from page 1 needed, The concluding address wits "'rim ho C -'a11" dry the Very Rev, Dean Tucker:., He said :' Address by The Reverend Dean Tucker My remarks tonight will be on the War, because it is the war that has re- leased this Forward Movement and trade it possible. This Forward Movement and the suns of money that we propose to raise is meant to be a token of gratitude to God for the victoroua ending of the War; and if we look at it in that light, you will at once acknowledge that the sum is none too large. When we think of God's interposition in the War, when we think of all that God has spared us inconnection with the war, $2,500,000, is a very small sum, 1 saw a day or two ago in the hands of Col. Seaborn, who has just returned from the front, a map of Calais, in which place Many of our hospitals were to be found; and the snap is marked like a flh c pitted by smallpox, by the bombs that the Germans dropped on Calais -3000 on the one town -and not one bomb dropped on the whole Dominion of Canada. Just imagine the German army sweeping through Bel- gium and France, and the whole civil population being driven before them, like chaff before the winds Hundreds of thousands of men,'' women, and children driven out of their homes. And we have been spared all that. Twenty-five thousand young girls taken out of the City of Lille and sent to Germany -God only knows with what results, Two hundred thousand Bel- gian civilians carried off as slaves and made to work for oppressors) Eight millions of Belgians and five millions of Frenchmen were to practical slavery for 436 years -more' than the whole population of Canada. And we have been spared all that! I wish you could have heard your fellow townsmen, Mr. Ransford, describe a scene which might have occurred if the war had ended differently. If the Church of England in Canada had been called upon to be assessed for damages in the war, - What would we have said had the dam- ages been only $2,5000,000? 'twenty thousand millions is the capital of Can- ada; not the value of the estate at all, because it is worth untold billions; but the actual capital invested in our Can- ada: today $20,000,000,000, and the Church of England in Canada owning one-seventh of that and assessed only $2,500,000. It seems to rine that when we recall the ten times over that in which God intervened to save us from ruin, we ought to be willing to give twice that amount. At the battle of the Marne, Lord Roberts said "It is a miracle." On more than one occas- ion, it was only the intervention of God which saved us. God guided and pro- tected us. "Our refuge and strength and very present help in the tithe of trouble." And now we are called upon to make a thank offering of $2,500- 000. Secondly, we are glad to make 'that thank offering through the 'Church because our Church is God's represen- tative here on earth, It is the Church that through the five years of the war has been the interpreter of the war. Through the church, 400,000 men of- fered themselves, It was the morale of the men which won the war -not the guns, but the man behind the guns. R was the church working through the young amen which caused then to go forward and to die for their country if, need be. It is therefore meet and right that through the church this thank offering should be made, in order that the church may complete the task which British paint manufacturers have found that an oil obtained from the it has begun in the past. Thirdly. The war las taught us to t seeds of Brazilian rubber trees is an, think in a large way and to attempt acceptable substitute for linseed ail. and accomplish great things, Most of THE CLINTON NEW ERA. us have felt that we have seen wonder- ful things during the past live years,. 'IydngS unimaginable. It showed the sph'it of the people when Canada Babi- ed 0tlgiand "Count upon us to the last ratan and to the hast dollar'." Then 400,000 men freely offered themselves thatse ism and the have been told the 1 ro 1 lone re d allMullin- af It c t i W118b au men Y tion -we ".could' not imagine. They have aeeontpllshed things greater than o' t ft m ever accomplished a e i h 1 e en veb n t t history of the world. Our Govern- ment in our Victory Loan took in five hundred millions -Church of England's propo'tiou of that would be 'about seventy -Ave millions. I•lere we are asked for $2,500,000, Voluntarily Use people of Canada gave ninety mil- lions to the'Red Cross work -fifteen millions of that from Church of Eng- land people In Canada. Now, we are only asked to give $2,500,000, or one- seventh of what we have already given, Our debt In Connectins Nvltli the 'tvai' was two hundred minions, And we are only asked to give as a thank offering to God $2500,000• or about 1% of debt which we have increased in connection with the war, The war has taught us to care for weak and helpless. The invasion of Belguim-5 small and weak nation- broulit England into the war. It was the invasion of Serbia that brought a- bout the great war at the outset, be- cause the conscience of the world re- volted against a nation bullying a small- er and weaker nation. We are asked on behalf of tlse weak, the few, the poor, the helpless Indians and Eskimos in our Dominion of Can- ada, the original inhabitants of our country, to give half a million dollars in -order to present to them the un - searchable riches of Jesus Christ, We have inherited from them this magni- ficent country, it is impossible to sit down today and assess the Dominion of 'Canada for days that to come. $20,- 000,000,000 is the actual capital; but the estate itself is beyond' all price. The Church Missionary Society has handed this work over to us Can you realize all we owe to the Church Mis- sionary Society in connection with this work with the Indians and Eskimos? They began their work in the year 1820. For one hundred years before, the vast territory of the North West had been in the hands of the Hudsons Bay Co. They did nothing for the Indians and Eskimos; and the conscien- ces of good men began to be moved. About 75 years ago, there appeared a young man on the shores of the Hud- son Bay, an ordinary maul, only a.school teacher; but he was a handy' man, Landed an shores of Hudson Bay and found people there to be savages and heathen, worshipping all kinds of spirits and devoid of civilization, They were savages and he set to 'work to civilize them and to christianize them. He taught then to be carpenters, to be blacksmiths, etc., taught them to read and write. He learnt their language and translated' the bible and prayer book and enabled them to print them in their own language and then they came to worship God in the Cree language, Now, they all go to church on Sunday, never swear, nor break the laws of God or man and are even an example to tlse dissolute white Hien. There is not a savage or heathen nsan left along the shores of the Hudson Bay, And this is the work of the Church Missionary Society, which has been repeated fifty times over on the Red River, the Fraser River, the Nelson River, the Mackenzie River, the Columbia River, etc. A- mong the Eskimos not so Much has been done as yet, but nearly every Indian has been brought within the knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ, and more or less civilized; and now after that wonderful work has been done, the Church Missionary Society coshes and says, "We hand this work over to you. The people we have civil- ized and christianized, we now hand over to your care that you may keep then in the fold of Jesus Christ." Surely the least •we can do is to take over this work and carry it on, Then the war has taught us the im- portance of what we call national spirit. The one outstanding feature of tear was the strength of national feeling, lie strength of patriotism; and the pillars upon which whole war rested were these pillars of national life.

The Japanese have a religion and that religion is a political religions. They worship Ilse spirit of the country or the genus of the country in the per- son of the+Emperor; and that is what made them so courageous, and why their heroism is only equalled or sur- passed by the heroism of our men in the war. But the genus of the country does not appeal to men In times of peace; and the statesmen of Japan to- day aYe ata loss to know what to do to carry their country into the great future which lies before thein. The country is .now its a state of dissolu- tion. It is citizenship that counts, and citizenship is built on character; and the moral and spiritual nature of life in Japan is deteriorating. The leading men of Japan are asking, "What can we do?" It is only the spiritual power of the gospel of Jesus Christ which can accomplish this great work. We can earn the infinite gratitude of Japan if at this crisis we go and help them enter on the great sea of the future upon which they embark. China was ruled by ns!anisters. Liter- al class swept away and the whole country is also in a state of dissolut- ion. Their cry is "send us missionaries, send us engineers, send us teachers in order that the Chinese nation stay not founder on Use sen of dissolution." We shall deserve the unspeakable gratitude of China if we enter their country and give therm. the principles of morality and! citizenship which alone can save Use Chinese republic, India is a great problem. I have sonsetinses described it in form of bis- hops with mitres, croziers and vest- ments standing at the door of the church and shoving back the people as they climb the steps to enter the ch`urcis of God. Hundreds of thousands in India are asking for admission into the church, and we refuse them be- cause we are unable to teach them, We have not missionaries enough nor teachers enought, is it imaginable that among 325 millions of people, there are hundred's of thousands clamoring for admission to the church and we are obliged to refuse them because we can- not teach them? Hundreds of years ago, people were on their knees pray- ing that God might open the door. Africa was closed until 1812 -they weren't allowed to preach the gospel in India, China likewise, Morrison went to China on an American ship because no British ship would take him. He went not as a missionary, but as a teacher of languages, and he incident- ally taught then the Word of God; but it was only in course of time that China was opened to receive the mes- sage. All these countries were closed hundreds of years ago; and now they are all opened wide,' and as in India they are clamoring for help. In conclusion, tlse opportunity is great and the call of God to us is irres- istible, if we only sit down and think. Look around upon the world and see the whole planet open to message. Three-quarters of the whole noii- cliristian population of the globe is wide open inviting us to send of our best, in order to help in the crisis in which they have been placed. The op- portunity is the greatest that has ever dawned upon this world; and the world is in a state of dissolution and we can stamp it with any image we like. We can launch this whole planet in a new life which lies before us. If we wait for ten or twenty years our opportunity will be lost and possibly lost for all tines, This is the greatest opportun- ity in history; and the responsibility is just ars great as the opportunity. In olden times God led the people of Israel through the Red Sea, guided them the wilderness to the promised land and preserved them and in the fulness of time the Heavens opened and the Lord of glory came down to put himself at the head of those people to lead then to the religious conquest of the world, and they said "Not this man, but Bar- rabas"; and when they said that, af- ter 1500 years of such leading on the part of God, of such blessing on the part of God, their fate was sealed, The Roman armies destroyed their cities and took these people and scattered them like chaff before the wind, and they remain scattered even unto this day, because they know not the day of their visitation. And now we have a day of greater visitation than they. We have the fate of the whole human rate placed in our hands by the ,hand of God, Will we say, Not the Indians, not the Eskimos, not the Chinese, not the Japanese, not the souls of Hien, not the Lord Jesus and His gospel; hut gold mines, and wheat fields, and in- surance companies, and real estate companies, and money and pleasure, and the things of this world, and we withhold from God this token of grat- itude that we owe to flim at the close of the war -$2,500,000? if we should close our eyes to this op- portunity, what would be our fate? i'he Lord Himself will say "it will be more tolerable for Sodom and Mantor- rah in the day of judgment than for you." 30 conclusion the. rural dean thank- ed the Clinton people who had so hospitably enter tatnerl the ministers and rielegates, iia also expressed its gratitude to the speakers who had so kindly come to the deanery meet- ing.
