Communion with Christ. The Lord's Supper is originally and dis- tinctively a Christian institution. It is the second of the sacraments re- ceived by the Christian church and is of equal authority eatth baptism, from which it differs iil that it is to be re- peated on frequent occasions. Both t•elong only to the children of God. It was instituted by Christ himself and had no typical predecessor in the ceremonial dispensation, and has no symbolic representative, in any other system of religious estvice. In Its original significance the term Euchar- ist appropriately means the giving of thanks, which on the part of Jesus accompanied the setting apart of eacb ef the elements used in its adminis- tration. We have four accounts of its establishment; in the first three gospels, and hi Paul's first letter to the Corinthian church, whose know- ledge was derived, as he emphatically tells us, by a special revelation to himself (1 Cor. 11: 23-25). As a re- ligious service it looks in two. direc- tions:, backward to the cross, and forward to his second corning. "Ye do shew the Lord's death till he come." The Lord's Simper is first a memorial service. Jesus shrank from forgetfullness and to perpetuate the remembrance of himself, inseparable from his work, established this "vis- ible gospel." Nothing can kindle glowing love like the stirring of the memory of great sacrifice endured in service rendered. By the very terms and limitations of its establishment Jesus gave his disciples assarance, and kindled anticipation of his return. The sacrament is a declaration of faith in the value and virtue of re- demption. 'We can not behold, much less receive, the emblems of Christ's death without reinemberin.g our own moral need and the vicarious signifi- cance of Ms death. on the cross. Its purpose is to quicken faith and kinale love. The Old Testament foreshad- owed the principle when the prophet, turning from the rites of Mosiac °ere - Tennis Golf Baseball and Supplies Tennis Racket Restringing We make a speeialty of restringing rackets of every knowmake.

They are facing the cer- tainty of a short crop in the first: place, and the clanger of difficulty: in umeketing that crop in the sec- - ond place. Figures recently given by U. 5., Wheat Director Berner are believ- ed by that official toeejnatify the ex- pectation that all the wheat • avail- able in North America will be needed in Europe, and that the U. S, crop will be sold at a priee that will let the Washington Government - out with,out loss under its guarttn-; tee But Me, Berner already has, a. selling agency in every country in Europe, backed by an appropriation of a billion dollars to assist hint in , disposing of the U. S. surplus. There is no official Canaellan agency for the marketing , of Cana ada's surplus, and what Western' grain growers fear is that they may. be forced to accept a muck lowet Price than American farmers will receive. They consider it certain that no Canadian, wheat from thea 1919 crop will be allowed admission' to the United States this year, Other', for sale or for transport to seabotted.. It would be a matter of difficulty to ship the small promised surplus from . the Canadian crop through our cevne channels to Europe Oren if means' were available in Europe for gelling' arrival.

Nothing ia More evident than that the communion was instituted to keep ever before us the fact that the partaking of food is not more necessary to the physieal than simple faith is to the spiritual life. II. Communion With Christians. The cross is the center of communion. Here converge all human intetests end hopes. Here God's people confess a"common need and kindle a common hope. The Lord's Supper is' a symbol of Chrietian brotherhood. The corn- enunion which it represents is of tb.e 'spirit and not of the act. Love for Christ will imply and 'Embrace love for Ms followers. The symbolic sig- nificance is not in the vessel, but in its conteets, consecrated by Christ's act of blessirig as an abiding emblem of atoning blood. There is no tran. ,substantiation, but a divinely estab- lished symbolism. This is exclusive- ly a sei•vice for Christians Or sincere, ' trusting penitents. To eat and drink "unworthily," "not diecerning the Lord's body," Is blasphemy. W. 11. C.

The Crimes Act proclam- ation is a reaersion to the methods employed against the National League. in Parnell's time. Under the terms of the proclamation membership in the various prohibited organizations becomes a criminal of- fence, and meetings of those bodies and the publication of the reports of their proceedings become illegal. The proclamation, in actuality, substitutes the civil tribunal constituted by the Act of 1887 for the military couttse martial held under the Defence of the Realm Act. It is taken in some guar - tors to point to the pelicy to be pur- stied-by the Goyernment when the De- fence of the Realm Act is no longer in operation. The organizations are not prohibited anywhere but in Tip- perary, although the Lord Lieutenant, has the power to extend the proclam- ation, which. Is looked upon as a pos- sibility in some quarters. In Irish political circles in Dublin not favorable to the Government, it Is believed the proclamation Is likely to have the effect of consolidatitig popular feeling against the Govern- ment and to make the situation more unfavorable for an impartial consid- eration of any self-government pro- posals. • WELCOMED BY SINN FEINER& The Sinn Feiners, who repudiate all suggestions of -compromise or negoti- ation on Home Rule, and are holding out for an independent republic, wel- come the proclamation as assisting their policy. The Ulster party is urging that the proclamation be extended to the rest of Ireland, and will decide at the forthcoming Orange celebrations up- on a demand for repeal of the Home Rule Act and the maintenance of the Union as essential for the areser- eation of their liberties and the se- curity of the British Empire. This is a reversion of their former position, departed from temporarily, when the Ulsterites agreed to Home Rule for the rest of Ireland, provided that the six Northeastern Counties would be excluaed., The Southern Unionists, who, at their convention recently, shoveled a 'Willingness to compromise, are as- suming an attitude similar to the Ulsterites against Home Rule, The vacancy- in the representation of Trinity College, it ie said, will be fill- ed by the election of William Jellette who organized the Southern.

London cable: Great Britain is preparing to resume her consular service in Germany soon, and to give every facility for British firms to dis- tribute goods there, says the Daily Mail. A special committee of the Foreign Office is selecting men for consular work, and it is expected that the Ambassador to Berlin will•be ap- pointed in the near' future. It is expected that Germany will send a Charge -d'Affaires here, but that no Gernian Ambassador will be named for some time.

According to the terms of the Suspension Act, enacted shortly after the war began, Home Rule must come into operation not le ter than ell tithhths from the end of the war. * In political circles the belief is in- creasing that athe Government at Dublin Castle will seek to gain time in which to arrange a settlement by providing for the continued operation of the Suspension Act andaby the appointment of a commission of en- quiry, with special reference to the. possibility of whether each a settle- ment might tit in with a echeme of federalization designed for the entire United Kingdom. Ireland, under such ' a scheme, would he on the same foot- ing as Seetland and Wales, but with the poleibility that Ulster might be createa a separate federal unit. It is believed that Mich a policy would gain much popular support in Itela,nd. The Moderates, who former- ly favored it, generally have become identified ‚with - the new Irish Domin- ion League under the leadership of Sir Ilorace Plunkett. The Irish cen- tre party, whielt was established to etrocate a scheme of federalizetioa within Ireland, with a Parliament for each province, has been dissolved, and the leaden have asked the Members to support Sir Horace Plunkett's plate FAMILY BUDGET.

PHONE 29 pirEIMPein AP.O.P.Messonnowip Winnipeg Report -With wheat gen- erally in head, and, oats headed in Many sections, present crop prospacts in Manitoba leave little to be desired. The latest bulletin of the Provincial Department ot Agriculture shows only ' one weak spot on the crop map of the Province. Vere Brown, Superintendent ot Western 13eanches of the Bank cf Ceinmerce, puts tho condition of the Manitoba Wheat at from 111 :a 130 per dent. in all parts of the Province save the northwest corner, where la places it at 80 per cent.- in the &cotton of Manitoba where condition is lowest comparatively little wheat is growa. In the portion of Saskatchewan im- mediately adjoining Manitoba condi- tions are also fairly good. But erom that point westward prospects steadily grow worse. Save in one part, where very little wheat is grown, the most 'optimistic do not look, for more than , a 73 percent. crop. Sonia who caneot , be classed as pessimist describe the situation beyond Regina as "rot:. un." Near Pasqua, west of Regina, One farmer plowed up 125 aures or wheat to sow. flax. About Swift Current wheat headed when only a foot high. Ia Saskatchewan district, the hard winds' in the spring blew a lot of the crop out of the ground, and a parch- ing June burned up a lot more. The beet opinion is that in Saskatch- ewan on the whole, wbeat cannot go over ten bushels to the acre, and maY go as low as seven or eight, Southern Alberta is harder Mt than 'Saskatche- wan, and aren Manitoba is not yet out of the woods as experienced farm- ers fear black rust here. Last year the wheat output of the Prairie Provinces was estimated by the Dominion Bureau of Statiatics at 164,000,000 bushels against 260,000.000 in the banner year ea 1915. The most hopeful eetimate is that this year may exceedlast. by some 35,000,000 bushels, fie oats the .preenise is better than in wheat, because these were suffi- ciently behind to be benefited by re - Mit rains. But even in feed crops the situdtion is not good anywhere outside of Manitoba and Eastern Sas- katchewan. To the west of that line, it is bad te very bad, Geo. S. Ferris, a rancher near Nanton, has Wired Pre- eldent Wood of the Canadian Council of Agriculture, that half a million cattle must be ahipped out of Alberta betore winter if they are not to perieh sot starvation.
