Hon. J. A. Robb's Budget
•
The salient points in James Robb's
Budget speech are condensed below.
Probably the most interesting to the
majority is the; return to penny post-
age in Canada on July 1st next: The
Budget presents the country with
$25,000,000 by way of annual relief
from various imposts. Such extensi-
ve reductions were unexpected,, but
cheerfully received by everyone, and
"cheeringly"—r`eceived by M. P:'s at
Ottawa. A notable reduction. in 'tax-
ation, increased the exemption on in-
come for married persons from $2,000
to $3,000 and for unmarried persons
from. $1,000 to $1,500. The Govern
ment Tas apparently accepted the
claim that the automobile is now a
necessity rather than a luxury, and
proposes a reduction in the general
tariff from 35 to 20 per cent ort mo-
tor cars, trucks and motorcycles,
whose selling price 'in the U. S. sales
tax included, does not exceed' $1200,.
and a reduction from 35 to 27 1-2 per
cent: on cars exceeding this price.
Certain drawbacks are allowed to Ca-*
nadian manufacturers, but this in brief
is tide auto situation. A more detail-
ed article on the Budget appears else-
where in this issue.

"AT EVEN, ERE THE SUN WAS
SET"
The author of this well-known hy-
inii was Rev. Henry Twells. He was
born at Ashted, Birmingham, Eng-
land, on March 13th., 1823 and was
educated there along with a group of
boys, some of whom were destined to
distinguish themselves in later years.
From this group carie Archbishop
Benson, Bishop Lightfoot, and Bishop
Wescott. Henry Twells studied at
St. Peter's College, Cambridge and
was ordained to the )ministry 'of the
Anglican Church in 1849. His first
curacy was at Great Bcrkhampstead,
and after three years there he remov-
ed to Stratford on Avon where he re-
mained for sixteen years. Later he
was appointed Canon of Peterborou-
gh but failing health made it necessary
for him to retire to Bournemouth
where he built, and endowed at his

Henry Baker, who said a new even-

at their examination and I was sup-
posed to be seeing "All fair." I am:

ergetic or lynx -eyed in my duties that
day, but I little anticipated the po-
pularity the hymn would attain. I
have been asked for leave to insert it
in one hundred and forty-seven differ-
ent hymnals in all parts of the Eng-
lish-speaking world, and many more
have 'taken it without leave. Copies
have been kindly sent to me in Greek,
Latin, German, French, Welsh and
Irish. I like to think it may have
brought souls nearer Christ, and if so,
I heartily thank God for it."
