Lord Tweedsmuir was given a fare- well luncheon by the Royal Empire Society in view of his departure for Canada to take up the Governor Generalship; He spoke on the vari­ ous phases through which the Brit­ ish Empire has passed, the present being that of an alliance of indepen­ dent sovereign peoples—a phase which in his .opinion is parsing. . *.. He believes that it. is approach^ ing a new phase,' one in. which the alliance will develop into something ; more—-a working executive .partherl ship with a common policy for all that ■ concerns the Empire, the in-- spiring spirit With it being ' not nationalism, but. patriotism ih the fullest sense of the term., " * /‘, •fh ■ proportion as.

Teachings of many prominent persons, suggestions in ' some mo­ tion pictures and articles in certain types of magazines and newspapers, and in books, are giving many young people false standards of morality. The adversary is apparently mak­ ing every possible effort to lead young people into, .immorality and unchastity, one of the surest means of leading them .into ' apostasy ’ and. condemnation. Young people, as a rule, are anx­ ious to do what is‘right; but with' so many influences at work to lead them astray-they need counsel and advicei They nyed warning -of ,. the far-reaching effects ari.d' serious 'con­ sequences of'immorality.

Tt skulks through the land in blasphemous defiance of the laws of God and of man.
