Record Building Scheme

Sometimes" we think that Canada
■ and the United States are the only
places where anything can be done•'
■ quickly. • Word 'conies from Paris
France, that Henri - Sauvage, a
French architect hase
perfected a
® schema by'which a six -storey apart-
® Ment building may be constructed: in
eight, days. The idea is . to build -tate
different parts separately, but in., such
a xray that they will fit each .other,
and can be easily joined together.
Canada has"some so a lzigli speed buildings
to her credit. In Brampton, ',some'
years ago, . a. contractor
t i a ` putt1
six -
room dwelling i, he clay. As far as
we -know, that ;<;,titutes a world's
record. No building is ever erected
quickly enough forthe person who is
waiting to occupy it. But no 'matter
how impatient the prospective tenant
may he, he would rather wait a -few
extra days, and see the work done
well. No one wants .ho have a

THERE IS A GREEN HILL
FAR AWAY `
This hymn was . written by Miss
Cecil Frances Humphreys, who later
became the wife of'e Rev. William
Alexander„ Miss Humphreys had
come under the influence of the Ox -
fold Movement; a serious ,endeavour
to bring the Anglican Church : into
more intimate relationships with the
principles of Catholicism. Miss
Humphreys felt that, if the ideals of
the Oxford Movement were to pre-
vail the children must learn "sound
church principles", and one of the fir-
st things to be done was to , provide
them- with. suitable Hymns, In 1848
she published jest such: a collection
entitled "Hymns for Little Children""'.
There were forty hymns most of -will
-
ch •..{veru• intended to' explain the tea-.
ching of the Chinch on such subjects
as the Trinity; the Apostles Creed;,
the Commandments and the Lord's
"There. -
Prayer. y e is a green hill far I
away," was written,.to impress that
passage in the Apostles Creed, "Suf-
fered under Pontius Pilate, was cru-
cified, dead and buried."
In 1850 Miss Humphreys was nhar
ried to Mr. Alexander: He was at
that time rector of 'an obscufe coun-
try parish. He was a very able man
and an eloquent preacher. In 1867 he
was appointed Bishop of Derry and
some time after his wife's death lie
was made "Primate of All Ireland."
Mrs. Alexander was intensely inter-
ested in her husba.iul's work and her
life was chiefly spent in doing e:---
rands of charity and helpfulness. Al-
though she was a woman of decided
opinions she was singularly- tolerant. -
of those whose views differed front.
her; own, and respected and loved ear-
nest Christians of other denomina-
tions as much as those of her owls.
It is interesting to notice that, al-
though most of Mrs. Alexander's hy-
mns were written for children ` they
have gained an abiding place - in the
affections of grown-up people. This
hymn, which was intended to impress
children with 'fife' meaning of the At-
onement has established itself as a --
standard
^,-standard hymn for adult's. No doubt
this is because—as one writer has
pointed out—there isso much of the
child withih us all, that children's 'hy-
mns such as this cannot be hidden
away in the nursery or in the Sunday
School,
Mrs. Alexander seems to have very
near to that most difficult of all vir-
tues—self-effacement.
ir-
tui s—self- m
e efface ent. She did not :
enjoy hearing her hymns; praised, and
if she could prevent it, would not re-
ceive compliments. But one day her
husband read to her a tract written, by
a non -conformist minister which told
of a great change which had been
brought about in the life of a man '•by-:.
his having beard a lady sing, "There
is a Green Hill Far Away." The ac-
count of this incident gave her great
pleasure. She almost sprang from
her ellen-, and said: "Thank God! I
do like to hear "that." e
