Speak the old words again, beside
the deep,
Bid all who love Thee, Master, feed
Thy sheep!

days!mountains rise,
Per weary ones who seek the quiet#'Where yearning earth draws nearest
ways, to the skies!
Fare forth beyond the thunder of the
street,
'The marvel of Emmaus Road repeat
Thy comradeship so graciously bestow
Their hearts shall burn within then
as they go.
Grant those who turn for healing to
the sea
May find the faith that once by

Flamed brighter than the glowing
fire of coals.
And when Thou hast refreshed their
hungry souls,
Give then the peace, the courage that
they ask;
New strength to face the waiting
valley task,
New light to lead through shrouding
valley haze!
Thy blessing, Lord, on all vacation

Meat Loaves are Pop-
ular on Hot Days
Meat loaves come into their 'own in
summer time. They can be prepared
to do duty for -two meals or more
and are available in pleasing variety.
Baked and jellied, such meat dishes•
are inviting, and can be made very
economically.
Jellied Veal and lamb loaves are
particually delicate and sunnmezy.
They can be made quite attractive
and festive looking cey clever gar-
nishing, and are suitable for company
as well as family fare.

One knuckle and shin of veal, 1
pound Iean veal, 1 good sized onion;
celery tops, 4 eggs, parsley, salt and

Ask the butcher to saw through
the veal bone in several places. Put

ion, celery tops and boiling water tc

fitting cover. Simmer until meat is
tender. Drain from stock and chop
finely. - Boil stock until reduced to
11-2 cups and strain. Simmer eggs
in boiling water for twenty minutes.
Garnish bottom of mold with eggs

weight lightly and let stand on ice
until chilled and firer, Run a spat-
ula around the mold to loosen it, turn
out on a serving plate, garnish and

difficulty, Even a short holiday,
spent far from one's accustomed place
and in pursuits little allied to one's
accustomed task, has the effect of
snaking a return to that task just a
little diffieult. One has to wrench
one's mind back from its wanderings
to the matter in hand and it is not bar
any means easy.
The reason it is so easy to adjust
oneself to holidays is that as a rule
one just drifts along without making
any special effort, doing the things
one wants to do, Then when the holt.
day is over and one conies back to
the task ane has to make a mighty
effort to accomplish it.
It is a question whether a long or
a short holiday is best. Personally I
think a holiday long enough to satisfy
one is best, so that you come back to
your work somewhat eager for it;
glad to put aside the irresponsibility
of holidaying and tackle one's job
with enthnsinem. A too -short holi-
day leaves one a bit dissatisfied and
you come back under protest and
with regret, while a too -long holi-
day unfits one for the task almost
completely.
But, even though the holiday may
not have been very long, even if you
could easily have "played" a while
longer, a holiday should have the ef-
fect of making one all the keener
when the first distaste of the return
to the task has worm off. That is
what holidays are for and if you
spend a holiday to so little profit
that you are in worse shape after
than before, your holiday has 'been
wasted,

ROAD ACCIDENTS IN ONTARIO
Everyone will be gratified to learn
that fatal accidents in Ontario for
the month of June have again shown
a decrease, The number killed in
that month in 1931, were 61, for 1932,
36, and for 1933, 30—one person each
day• for June 1933. There were 749
aceideuts during the month; 739 per=
sons were injured and property da-
mage reached 967,111.00. The con-
ditions in June were favorable. Of
the accidents 95 per cent occurred
on dry roads and 80 per cent in day-
light. Only,5 per cent of the cars
were mechanically defective, The
human factor failed.
The Clipping Bureau of The On-
tario Prohibition Union, has press
reports of 105 accidents on Ontario
highways during the month of June
1933 with which liquor was associat-
ed. This is more than 14 per cent of
the total reported. Its records fur-
ther show 41 cases of drunk driv-
ing, 27 cases of reckless driving af-
ter drinking, 26 eases where liquor
was found in cars, 7 cases where th-
driver had his liquor permit cancel-
led after driving recklessly, and 4
cases not easily classified. One of
the later was of a man found in a
burning ear. He died later in Belle-
ville hospital. Evidence at the in-
quest showed that before leaving
Marmora he had consumed consider-
able liquor. In addition to the above,
it may be of interest in passing to
note that the Union has record of 21
stills discovered in Ontario during
June last.
The human factor failed, but noth-
ing causes the human element to
fail more surely than a small amount
of alcoholic dope, The records of
The Prohibition Union are, of course,
incomplete, but there is good reason
to assume that in 14 per cent of the
accidents on Ontario roads liquor was
a definite contributing factor. Emi-
nent medical men and scientists in
Great Britain, --,teen with no bias on
the liquor question, or with one to-
ward tolerance if any,—declare that
with quantities of liquor too small
to occasion signs of intoxication in
the ordinary or the legal sense, the
mind of the individual is altered by
the drug, so that it "lacks its nor-
mal factor of judgment and conspi-
cuous element of its self-control."
They distinctly point out the Habil-
ity to serious accident attendant up-
on such type of indulgence.
Ignorance, our social customs, the
shielding of reputable citizens from
exposure, the condoning of the use
of liquor by public authority, and
the subtle effect of alcohol itself
which induces self-confidenee while
it reduces capacity and responsibil-
ity, delude the thoughtless and se! -
fish citizen, and all these are acces-
sory to the daily tragedy on our
highways.
Against these subtle but dominant
influences the strictures of the
Courts and •the pleadings of public
men are largely vain. The scientific
data is definite but neither our soc-
ial customs nor our laws recognize
its truth in any adequate degree, It:

And racing along the sands,

AN OLD WOMAN OF THE ROADS
Oh, to have a little house!
To own the hearth and stool and all
The heap -up sods upon the fire,
The pile of turf against the wall!
To have a clock with weights and
chains
And pendulum swinging up and
down!
A dresser filled -with shining delph,
Speckled and white and blue and
brown!
I could be busy all the day
Clearing and sweeping hearth and
floor,
And fixing on their shelf again
My white and blue and speckled
store!
I could be quiet there at night
Beside the fire and by myself,
Sure of a bed, and loth to leave
The ticking clock and the shining
delph!
Oh! but I'm weary of mist and dark,
And roads where there's never a
house or bush,
And tired I am of bog and road
And the crying wind and the lone-
some hush!
And I am praying to God on high,
And I am praying Ilim night and

SILVER
Slowly, silently, now the noon
Walks the night in her silver sheen;
This way, and that, she peers, and
sees
Silver fruit upon silver trees;
One by one the casements catch
Her beams beneath the silvery thatch;
Couched in his kennel, like a log,
With paws of silver sleeps the dog;
From their shadowy cote the white
breasts peep
Of doves in a silver -feathered sleep;
A harvest mouse goes scampering by,
With silver claws, and silver eye;
And moveless fish in the water gleam
By silver reeds in a silver stream.

FAIRY MUSIC
When the fiddlers play their tunes,
you may sometimes hear,
Very softly chiming in, magically
clear,
Magically high and sweet, the tiny
crystal notes
Of fairy voices bubbling free from
tiny fairy throats.
When the birds at break of day
chant their inorning prayers,
Or on sunny afternoons pipe ecstatic
airs,
Comes an added rush of sound to the
silver din -a
Songs of fairy troubadours gaily
joining in,
When athwart the drowsy fields son,
mer twilight falls,
Through the tranquil air there -Boat
elfin madrigals,
And in wild November nights, on the
winds astride,
Fairy hosts go rushing by, singing as
they ride.
Every dream that mortals dream,
sleeping or awake, ' .
Every lavely fragile hope --?these the
fairies take,
Delicately fashion them and give
them back again
In tender, limpid melodies that charm
the hearts of men, --)Rose Fyleman

THE HAPPY TREE
•
There was a bright and happy tree;
Tho wind • with mole • -laced- ita
boughs:
Thither across the houseless sea
Came singing birds to house.
Men grudged the tree its happy eves,
Its happy dawns of eager sound;
So all that crown and tower of leaves
They 'levelled with the ground.
They made an upright of the stem,
A cross -piece of a bough they made
No shadow of their deed on them
The fallen branches laid.
But blithely, since the year was
young,
When they a fitting hill did find,
There on the happy tree they hung
The Saviour of mankind,

THE SEEKERS
Friends and loves we have none, nor
wealth nor blessed abode,
But the hope, the bnning hope, and
the road, the open road.
Not for us are content, and quiet and
peace of mind,
Por we go seeking cities that we shall
never find.
There is no solaee on earth for us -,
for such as we-.
Who seareh for the hidden beauty
that eyes may never see.
Only the rod and the dawn, the sunt
the wind, and the rain,
And the watch -fire under the stars,
and sleep, and the roach again.
We seek the city of God, and the
haunt where beauty dwells,
And we find the noisy mart and the
sound of burial bells.
Never the golden city, where radiant
people meet,
But the dolorous town where mourn,
ers are going about the street.
We travel the dusty road, till the
light of the day is dim,
And sunset shows tis spires away on
the world's rim.
We travel from dawn to dusk, till the
day is past and by,
Seeking the holy city beyond the rim
of the sky.
Friends anti laves we have none, nor
wealth nor blessed abode,
But the hope, the burning hope, and
the road, the open road.
