DESTINY
'Tis here upon the shifting sand
We .strive, and shape a destiny;
` With such 'as is at our command
We build for an eternity.
• There is a hand by us unseen
We oft ignore in our lifers plan,
But wisdom oft -times goes between
Life's follies and the foolish man.
We speak from years that we have
passed-,
• But we recall life's morning dew,
• Sometimes 'twas dark and overcast,
But 'twos God's hand that led ne
thro'.
Should we not trust the One divine
We're taught to love as Saviour
Lord,
''hose plan's outreach all mortal
time,
And we by faith become His ward.
Should we not trust Him all the
way -
Our Saviour, who is love indeed
• He points to an eternal day
Where all who follow He will lead.
'Yet, still we shape our destiny,
We e'er retain our own free will,
Can say to Him, "no, not to -day,"
And walk as stranger to Him still.

AP PRAYER
Our Father God, when sore oppressed
and troubled,
Our weary eyes we faithful turn
to Thee;
Give us that peace our Loving Sav-
iour promised
Ere from this world IIe passed to
be with Thee,
Guard our defenders now, who, lone
and weary,
Defiant, face the tyrant, fear un-
known;
'Who through the lonely hours of:
nightly vigil
Through mist and rain can see Thy
blessed font.
0, Jesus Christ, o'ershadow those
now dying,
Who, faithful to Thy tratst, give 1
all for Thee.
/lave sweet communion with them,
Lard and Master,
' Until the clay dawn and the shad-
ows flee.
-Ex.-Canadian Soldier.'

UNFORGOTTEN
How wonderful it is to grasp
The beauty of a passing thing;
'The magic of a cheery smile -
A brilliant bird upon the wing.
low .blest, to so record it there
In Memory where no change can
come -
That we recapture muted tones
To comfort us when day is done.
The haunting strain of a sweet song,
The graphic beauty of a day
We live again when hours are clerk
And shadows fall across the way.
-Maud Rem.
DO THE RIGHT THING
You11 find this world's a fine old
place
If you'ii but make a fight,
And meet dull care with laughing
eyes,
And do the thing that's right.
If you will lead the children's steps
Across life's stony road,
And from some tired shoulders lift
The heavy, toilsome load.
31 you'lI but speak a cheerful word
When things are sad and blue,
Or chase the shadows from a fete
And see the smiles break through.
These little deeds are all we need
To turn work into play,
'They free our paths from selfishness
And clear the gloom away.
For kindly deeds are never lost -
They sing a glad refrain;
They sweeten up our daily toil
And ease the weary pain.
'THE MAN WHO STICKS CAN'T

T'he than who sticks has this lesson

We Have Failed To Do Our
Duty
0..,441, By 'PEG"
"Did we allow the torch to drop?" on but what the world can give them,
mused an elderly lady. "We certainly
did," replied her husband, "When
those who sacrificed their lives in the
Great War threw the torch to us, we
carried it high, but now it is lying
low inure dust."
In the light which it shed about
us we could plainly see our duty. As
time went on, we, each one of us,
became careless. We allowed the
things of the world to act as'a seda-
tive to our conscience. Finally we
fell and the torch which had been so
dearly bought crashed to the ground
and burned out and the pathway
which was formerly bright is now in
darkness, Once again, in the second
Great War other hands, now quiet,
have passed on to us the torch of
liberty, freedom, Christianity. "Are
we going to do the same with that
torch?"
If we are to obtain the victory
which we feel will ultimately be outs
we must pick up the torch, re -light
it and hold it high so that our way
will be well lighted ahead of us and
we will safely pass the stumbling
blocks.
To many it seems a mockery to
observe Armistice Day. We some-
times wonder if the author of that
greatest of war poems "In Flanders
Fields" forsaw the future when he
wrote those immortal lines:
"If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies
blow,
In Flanders Fields."
What are some of the things over
which we have stumbled and which
have` caused us to lot our torch fall,
and burn out?
One of these stumbling blocks,
probably not so often dealt with is
falsehood. This is a habit which,
unchecked, will grow on a person very
rapidly. It may be that we have be-
come so accustomed to telling what
is not true that we do.not realize we
are doing it. The great pity of it is,
that our conscience on these occasions
does not arouse enough to make us
understand that we are doing some-
thing decidedly wrong. As we look
at world conditions to -day we know
that this sin of lying is one of the
main sources of the trouble. If wo
would only realize what people think
of us when they find out we ate not
telling the truth perhaps we would
be more careful in this regard.
Another thing which has cause
trouble is that we are afraid to stan
up for what is right in the more
issues of the day. The responsibilt
of the downfall of many of our youn
people is the fact that those of u
who have votes have been afraid t
come cut and say "Come what will,
will vote on tate side of right on an
question which wilt effect the more
life of our citizens." One just need
to visit our large towns and cities t
see the evil which is being done b
the liquor traffic, Can we look a
some of these poor young people a
they stagger home or to their board
in.g houses and think, "Well, there i
one thing of which my conscience -i
clear, I voted against that", or do we
think, "I believe everyone is a fre
agent." Do we serve wine or liquo
to nose who come to visit us? It I
really unnecessary for some parent
to have theft' son or daughter con
staggering home, probably ruined fo
life before they can understand the
significance of the words, "I am lily
brother's keeper'." If we have young
people' in the city do we consider i
worth while to pay them a visit and
see what kind of company they are
keep,ing• or do we encourage them to
bring friends home over a weekend?
Have we used our influence to have
them join in some church work or
have we brought• then up with 310 re-
gard for God's House. I1 we have
therm we must bear the consequences
of our neglect. We need to tensile
when voting on any moral issue that
the son or slaughter, brother or sis-
ter int our home may be the first to
fall. Drink Inas certainly been a great
factor in the, lowering of the torch.
Another stumbling blocic is on.
failure to attend God'e House. We
are ready to go any place but to the
Place of Worship on Sunday. God
in His mercy will accept us if we
come to Him but are we ashamed to
show to the world that we belong to
Him? Those are trying tithes for
many` of our young men, It is a
real testing time for them. At our
training camps how many of our
young men are stepping out of rank
to partake of communion or if they
do the first Sunday have they the
courage to walk out the second Sun-
day? Are parents training their
children in such a way that when
the testing time comes they will be
true to the cau,ee of Christ? God
helps them in these days of swift
change, if they are going out to face
the enemy with nothing to depend
Young men and young women re-
member that Christ died for us. He
is offering us His love and His sal-
vation. Before joining the army let
us join the forces of the Great Gen-
eral wlio should be daily asked to
lead our forces on air, sea and land.
Selfishness has been another stum-
bling block in our way. Are there
any people more to be despised than
those who think entirely of them-
selves and who give no thought to
the happiness and well-being of
others? If we would only realize it
the most pleasant memories of our
lives are the result of the times when
we have given of ourselves to other's.
As we have gone along we have
tripped over the stumbling block of
dishonor. This tragic condition was
at the back of the Great War and
has been one of the main causes of
the Second Great War. There can be
no honor in trying to force the people
of other countries to sign peace
treaties in which Christ has no part.
History tells us that for years after
Robert Bruce, that great war time
leader of the Scots, died, that his
heart was carried into battle by his
clansmen. It proved a•greet inspira-
tion to the soldiers as they could not
in any way associate defeat with
Robert Bruce. We too, will never
known individual defeat as long as
we have Jesus Christ with us and He
Inas said "La, I am with you always,
even unto the end of the World."
There are many more stones over
which we have fallen with the result
that we have dropped the,torch which
Was handed to us on Armistice Day
so long ago, But the main thing is
to pickup the torch, re -light it and
again hold it high. How can we do it?
Certainly not in our own strength
and that is just what we are trying
to do. We gather together on the
appointed prayer days, and ask Gard
to give vs victory over the evil. forces
of the world, Then we promptly
march out and do the very things
which have been the cause of nus
downfall. ']"here is no question about
it, we have got to get back to 'Hire
who has freely offered us salvation.
We can allow the torch to lie useless
on the grounds or we can re -light it
and with God's help raise it so it
will shed its beams on our way. May
God grant we may come to our
senses and do what is right.
Our Prayer
"Give us peace with honor,
Peace that's true and real,
Peace that rests securely
On a great ideal;
Peace without betrayed
Of a weaker power;
Give us strength and guidance
In this bitter hour.
We are sick and weary
With the world's unrest,
Yet hope flares undying,
In the human breast.
Faith still lifts her banner,
Love still points the way,
Here now at the cross-roads,
Let us pause -and pray."

PATTERNS WiTH YOUR CAMERA
Light and shadow here created an interesting shadow pattern, which
repeats the design of the Ironwork. Watch for such patterns -they yield
fascinating pictures.
EVERYBODY likes an interesting
pattern -and there is an end-
less variety of patterns you can
capture with your camera, 1f you
watch for them.
Wherever light •shines through
something -such as an ornamental
window, or railing -there may be a
pattern of light and shadow. If
shadows repeat the lines of some
decorative Ironwork, or the outline
of a statue or fountain, opportunity
exists for a picture. Observe such
shadows --cheese a position to
show both the shadow and the ob-
ject that creates it -,and you'll usu-
ally get an interesting shot.
Whenever a number of similar
objects are placed together, in a
regular arrangement, you'll tInd
patterns. A large tray of apples or
oranges in front of the grocery
store -stacks of crates or baskets
at the market -piles of timber In a
lumber yard -all these may yield
good pattern effects that Invite the
attention of your camera.
Shoot a scene through an orna-
mental fence or window grille -and
you have another type of pattern
picture. The best type of grille is
fairly open, so that it does not cut
off too much of the scene. Expose
for the distant parts of the view,
and do not try to obtain detail in
the grille -it is more effective if it
appears as a dark outline.
In all these pattern pictures, use
as small a lens opening as you can,
so as to get a deeper zone of sharp-
ness. If your Lens will "stop down"
to a very small opening-suah as
f/22 -choose a high speed flim for
pattern shots and take advantage.
of the small lens opening.
Whenever you're outdoors on a
sunny day, 'watch :for pattern pic-
ture
iature opportunities. Look for pat-
terns Indoors, too. Natural pattern
effects occur everywhere -and -nice
tures of them will lend variety to
your collection.
