hearts. It is a joyousltitne in our
Hires .when we accept Christ as our
Saviour.: He will not force Himself
upon us but will willingly, be our corn,

sap coming up the trunk and into
the branches and 'leaves, teaches us
that we should not, keep the good
news to ourselves; we must .pass it
on to others.
Isaiah 64: 6 tells us that "We all
do fade as a leaf". There are some
leaves which- fall much earlier than
others. ,As we tramp through the
woods scattering. the leaves with sour
feet, we see among them tiny leaves
and from that size up to the largest
ones. As some leaves fall early, so
little children ale very often taken
Home in their babyhood, childhood
and youth. Our sympathy always
'goes out to parents from whom God
has called a little ehild or a boy or
girl in his or her teens just when
they are about to begin their Iife
work. Itis true that God does not
do anything by chance; He has a
purpose in everything- He does.
During the war so many of our
young men andwomen have been
called by the Angel of Death. Many
parents have questioned the judg-
ment of God.in this respect. Should
we judge these lonely parents? We
are told in God's word "Judge not
that ye be not judged:!' We cannot
say what we would do we were in
'their place. They had looked forward
to the future of'that son •or daughter
and now there is • a blank -which the
world can never fill. '
God Will Do Right
A mother and father had air on:y
son who grew to young manhood. He
had got. on well at school and had
been given an important position in
which he handled a eor:siderable
amount of money. Finally, he be,
came entangled r in some financial
ge
difficulty, and in order to protect him-
self he took moneytfrom: the holdinge.
of the firm The law caught up with
hien,, as it d"
oes ,.inn meek. eees and..
be was as,
to penitent ary. The sor-
row of that mother and father cannot
well be imagined for they were par-
ents who had tried to ,bring their
sonup in the way the. should go.
Not long after he had left to begin
his sentence, friends of theirs receiv-
ed word that an only son had been
"killed in action." The mother and
father of the first young man went
to make a call of sympathy. These
two young men had been fast,friends.
During the course of the conversation,
the father of the boy who had done
wrong said: "Your son has died en
honorable death. We would thank
God tonight if Jack had done the
same;' It may be that we have ex-
treme sorrow when a little one is
taken, but if we could ser God's
place we would be perfectly satisfied.
Can we not trust God to do what is
right? -
Trees don their brightest dress
just prior to the time when they are
about to shed their beauty. Thin
the branches will be left bare for the
coining months during, the time wirer
the snow will cover the irdund and
help the fallen leaves to go back to
Mother Earth to invigorate new
growth and life into the roots,' 'o
help on with the same process for
the next year. "The coming of Christ
into hearts makes dead souls live and
barren lives fruitful:"
As we drive along the road in the
winter time, very often we see trees
on which a few leaves are still hang-
ing and we wonder just how we can
connect those with' our Christian life.
The other leaves have fallen. They
have, so to speak, gone on to be of
some good use in the world, but the
ones• still clinging to the trees seem
to bee of no good Use. We can com-
pare : them to those people who are
determined that they will not accept
Christ and help on. His work, but will
stay with the world.. Following
World War I there was a great deal
of lawlessness,and now there seems
to be a repetition of this, evento' a
greater,de'ree. These deeds, con-
trary to law; are not, by any means
being perpretated by men who were
in the services: , Many of them are
civilians. There were fine men who
went overesas and numbers of ehet
are coming home even finer than they
went away.' They have accepted con
ditions as they found them ie thei.t
Dominion of Canada. They have done
their duty nobly and we have every
reason to be proud' of them.. As soon
as possible many of then'' are, going
back to the work in which they were
engaged beforethey. went away or
are , seeking a new field of service.

RURAL DEAN DEAD
GODERICH—Rev. W. H. Dunbar,
rector of St. George's Anglican
church and Rural Dean' of Huron,
died Thursday in AIexandra Marine
and General Hosital. He had been
seriously ill for the past two weeks.
Archbishop C. Ai. Seager, .metropolit-
an of Ontario, conducted the funeral

preached the sermon. He was assist-
ed by Archdeacon Townsend, London;
Rev, Dr. O'Neil, Principal of Huron
College, London; Rev. II. F. Cross,
Warwick; Rev S. II. L. Henderson,
Our prayers go up to God on their
behalf, for it is not easy for than
to settle down, from the life of a
man or woman in the Armed Servi_es
t6 the work of a civilian. Our grat-
itude .goes out to them for all they
have done for us and we do pray that
God will guide them as they start
on the new venture of life. May
civilian and service men do their; best
to be helpful and nottry to ding
to the things of the world.
God In Nature
There is• not one of us who at
some time in our lives has riot felt
the nearness of God in Nature. There'
is a quotation along- this line which
is very beautiful. "The purity of the
dawn; the glory of the sky, at anrset,
the morning carol cif the birds', the
murmur of the sea at night; the
strength of the hilts; the ,freedom of
the moorland; the majesty of th'e
stars; the splendor of the storm`.
While we observed these things God
has seemed very near to us. Would
that we could always live close to
Him; Why is it that at times we
can go out through the woods, the
parks, the fields, the sea shores and
see nothing of this. It is just simply
because we are living so close to the
world that we have no time for the
beauty which God has so willingly of,
fered to us.
.At thepreseiit time we are looking
forward to the winter, It may he
this is with a sense of dread. Elderly
people may be fearing the winter of
life. A noted author and publicist
recently shot himself. In a note which
ho left he stated that he ?bathed the
"in.cidcnce and stigmata of old age."
Some of the leaves which fall are
the largest yet they are beautifully
colored' They have done their work
and when that is completed they will
fall and their, good worlt will con-
tinue. As we grow older as Long-
fellow says: "Some days may he dark
and dreary," but with His presenee
the dreariness may be and will be
turned to brightness. We may fate
the future with fear but God has
given us t'he assurance that He will
be with us and will guide us. .He will
take the heavy share of the burden.
Will we not accept' Him and let Him
do it?
"A haze on the far horizon,
The infinite tender sky,
The ripe rich :tint of the cornfields,
And wild geese sailing high,
And all in the uplands and lowlands,
The sheen of the golden rod,
Some of, us call" it Autumn,
.Others call it God.'

father of the first young man went
to make a call of sympathy. These
two young men had been fast,friends.
During the course of the conversation,
the father of the boy who had done
wrong said: "Your son has died en
honorable death. We would thank
God tonight if Jack had done the
same;' It may be that we have ex-
treme sorrow when a little one is
taken, but if we could ser God's
place we would be perfectly satisfied.
Can we not trust God to do what is
right? -
Trees don their brightest dress
just prior to the time when they are
about to shed their beauty. Thin
the branches will be left bare for the
coining months during, the time wirer
the snow will cover the irdund and
help the fallen leaves to go back to
Mother Earth to invigorate new
growth and life into the roots,' 'o
help on with the same process for
the next year. "The coming of Christ
into hearts makes dead souls live and
barren lives fruitful:"
As we drive along the road in the
winter time, very often we see trees
on which a few leaves are still hang-
ing and we wonder just how we can
connect those with' our Christian life.
The other leaves have fallen. They
have, so to speak, gone on to be of
some good use in the world, but the
ones• still clinging to the trees seem
to bee of no good Use. We can com-
pare : them to those people who are
determined that they will not accept
Christ and help on. His work, but will
stay with the world.. Following
World War I there was a great deal
of lawlessness,and now there seems
to be a repetition of this, evento' a
greater,de'ree. These deeds, con-
trary to law; are not, by any means
being perpretated by men who were
in the services: , Many of them are
civilians. There were fine men who
went overesas and numbers of ehet
are coming home even finer than they
went away.' They have accepted con
ditions as they found them ie thei.t
Dominion of Canada. They have done
their duty nobly and we have every
reason to be proud' of them.. As soon
as possible many of then'' are, going
back to the work in which they were
engaged beforethey. went away or
are , seeking a new field of service.

Our prayers go up to God on their
behalf, for it is not easy for than
to settle down, from the life of a
man or woman in the Armed Servi_es
t6 the work of a civilian. Our grat-
itude .goes out to them for all they
have done for us and we do pray that
God will guide them as they start
on the new venture of life. May
civilian and service men do their; best
to be helpful and nottry to ding
to the things of the world.
God In Nature
There is• not one of us who at
some time in our lives has riot felt
the nearness of God in Nature. There'
is a quotation along- this line which
is very beautiful. "The purity of the
dawn; the glory of the sky, at anrset,
the morning carol cif the birds', the
murmur of the sea at night; the
strength of the hilts; the ,freedom of
the moorland; the majesty of th'e
stars; the splendor of the storm`.
While we observed these things God
has seemed very near to us. Would
that we could always live close to
Him; Why is it that at times we
can go out through the woods, the
parks, the fields, the sea shores and
see nothing of this. It is just simply
because we are living so close to the
world that we have no time for the
beauty which God has so willingly of,
fered to us.
.At thepreseiit time we are looking
forward to the winter, It may he
this is with a sense of dread. Elderly
people may be fearing the winter of
life. A noted author and publicist
recently shot himself. In a note which
ho left he stated that he ?bathed the
"in.cidcnce and stigmata of old age."
Some of the leaves which fall are
the largest yet they are beautifully
colored' They have done their work
and when that is completed they will
fall and their, good worlt will con-
tinue. As we grow older as Long-
fellow says: "Some days may he dark
and dreary," but with His presenee
the dreariness may be and will be
turned to brightness. We may fate
the future with fear but God has
given us t'he assurance that He will
be with us and will guide us. .He will
take the heavy share of the burden.
Will we not accept' Him and let Him
do it?
"A haze on the far horizon,
The infinite tender sky,
The ripe rich :tint of the cornfields,
And wild geese sailing high,
And all in the uplands and lowlands,
The sheen of the golden rod,
Some of, us call" it Autumn,
.Others call it God.'
