This is emphatically a .song, of the night, wrung out of a veritable "night of doubt and sorrow," with all sorts of dangers threatening a company of God's persecuted people wandering homeless, shelterless in mountains and forests, with apparently only their Almighty Father to befriend them. The Bohemian reformation, initiated by the writings and teachings of John Wickliffe; borne to that remote coun- try by the ladies ' and servants of Princess Anne, queen of Richard II, Which had made prodgions strides at first had suffered a mortal wound. by the Council of Basel (x0.1). This had had granted the right to receive the Holy Communion in both kinds, and also permitted liberty of preaching, and apparently agreed with the views of the reformers. But there were a- mong them those who would accept nothing front. the Roman Catholics which would appear to acknowledge any authority of leadership. Two rival parties sprang into existence, and both took up arms to fight, forgetful of the true' Christian spirit of forbearance. The effect of such fratricidal war- fare was fatal to the cause both held dear, and with the armed power of the then Sovereign Pope as a third par- ticipant, it was not very long before nearly all that was left of the refor- mation, was a dislocated body of its priests wandering here and there, ministering to those who remained' faithful toytheir principles. These lit- tle groups carne after a time to be known as United Brethren --their of- ficial title is still accordingto a Brit- ish Act of Parliament (449) "A Pro- testant Episcopal Church known by the name of 'Unitas Fratruni or the United 'Brethren." Today they are commonly ` known ninong English as Brethren, or Moravians. Their history was a sad, one in the latter part of the fifteenth and in the sixteenth centuries. 'Seeking a place where they might serve God' in their own way, they wandered or were driven in a good-sized company fr i iii kingdom to kingdom, until from 1540 to 1570 they were well nigh destitute, wanderirrg• in eastern 'Germany in tin settled parts, driven !by the religious wars or by ruffianly soldiers released from these wars, recognized neither by the Lutherans nor by their opp- onents. The -pietistic Count 7inzcndorf aft- erwards befriended them, as did'other strange admirers of their fortitude. They finally established missionary headczuarters in London, Eng., as well as 'elsewhere, and became vigorous, pioneering missionaries in many lands including North America, Their history is fascinating and ought to be much better known than it is, though this is not the place to develop it. While; their bitter tinno of pilgrim- age was on thorn, they courageously prepared a prayer book and 'Confess- ici Of faith, and also a remarkable fine hymn book.

Five years later he made a second trip: to Vienna, this time to present the Bre- thren,s German Hymn -Book to the monarch. He died in 1571. In the several editions of this book some hundred and four hymns were composed by Herbert, our hymn, written while he and his companions were still homeless pilgrims, being one of them. It is a noble`composition well adapted for use among Christ- ians who keep, in mind the apostolic words: -"Here have we no continuing city, but we seek one to come," and and' here we are "pilgrims and strang- ers" on this earth. No one will object to the adroit and touching manner in which our Lord's model prayer is introduced near the end o the hymn.

To resist and repel colds, grippe and Bron- chitis, there is nothing better than a course of ANGIER'S EMULSION.

Fust gas there are farmers who make very good money by intensively cultivating a few acres, so there are mer- chants in small towns who do a.satrprisingly large busi- ness. Of Bourse, they too cultivate their territory intensively., They don't wait for their customers to come to them -they go to their customers with frequent offers of what they know will tempt them. And they seem to sell every- body, So regularly do they keep' in toueh with their customers that their offers of merchan- dise are eagerly awaited, and are read as if they were news which they are.

Spring, the fairy princess, has been flirting with us and the mild days are beginning to come, and rnany a flow- er low-er, lover has the spring fever; a fever. of longing to begin the game of gard- ening. There are thrills of delight that the days are growing longer and the sun is getting warmer, and joy in the anticipation : that in a few more weeks it will be possiblt to dig and plant and hoe. What a difference it makes in a town when the game of gardening is popular. You drive into a town where the lawns are green and flowers are everywhere, even in front of garages and factories, and when you meet friends you tell them and advise them to go that way when motoring. You judge the people of a place by the ap- pearance of the town. There is nothing that attracts more than homes bedecked with shrubs and flowers. Gardening is very easy to learn, the Spring Catalogues tell you, a great deal, and arebrimful of sug- gestions to the beginner. A story is told' by Strickland Gil- liam, who, on passing a log cabin, the yard full of beautiful flowers, he paus- ed to admire it and an old colored mammy came out and he remarked to, her, "It was a fine garden". She re- plied "Sholy 'Massa, it ought to bt fine I live here." What a beautiful world it would be if if we could say with the poet, Bliss Carman: Surely God isi in His place, I have seen Him face to face In the beauty of the flowers, In the service of His showers; And this once has talked to me In the sunlit apply tree, Mrs. W, E..

After which were two contests, and last but not least a lovely lunch was served by the W. M. S. ladies. Mr. Bert Tullock returned home to Toronto after spending a month at the home of his uncle, Mr. Joe Greenaway. Don't forget the concert in the Hall on Friday night under the auspices of the Institute.
