Is it mere' nationalism and that, perhaps, of a selfish or even aggressive and mill' tent type? 137 no means. The Nation- al Anthem is a prayer sung as a hymn. It is the prayer of a people who acknowledge God and express their faith in His providence. This anthem concerns whom? "Why, the lung," you reply. This is true, but the lung in the. British Empire is more than a person, he is a symbol. The Icing represents the people, repres• ents the nation. He is the first citizen of the Empire and the symbol of all for which the Empire stands. In singing this hymn we do pray for the. king personally but more we pray for the ling as representing the pec,' pre and Empire of which he is the symbol. 'When the French cry, "Vive la France," and the British, "Long live the Bing," or "God Save the King," they wish much the game thing for .their respective. empires. Every Christian plan, therefore., will be ready to pray that the King and Empire, so long as the nation is Christian in spirit and parpose, may be victorioas, happy, glorious. and long continue to exist. There is no treason to think of the National Au- tismits a barrack room burg of bloodthirsty warriors. It is a ('in'istieun prayer for the safety of King and people, for the surety of nor homes our freedom arid our religion. And let Christian people recognize the ler portant part they have to play ie building up the spirit rind ideals- err this great Empire. If they do' mot wish the Empire to perish thele they must not fail in their task. Thus wepray, "God save the Xing." for the King is the symbol of the Empire and of all that it means to 165.- - R.P.11,H. - ANNOUNCEMENT Mr. and Mra, Edwin Cltuter of Varna wish to announce the engage. stent of their youngest daughter Elizabeth Grace (Bessie) to William Alvin, only son of Mr. and bars, Ernest Townshend, Bayfield L111e.
