The Wingham Advance Times, 1930-02-13, Page 3stioretoie I FAVORITE 1-1MYNS F Jesus, these eyes have never seen That radiant form of Thine; The veil of sense hangs dark between Thy blessed face and mine, I see Thee not, I hear Thee not, Yet art 'Thou oft with me; And, earth has ne'er, so dear a spot. As where Ionmet with Thee. Like some bright dream, that comes unsought, When slumbers o'er me roll, Thine image ever fills my thought, And charms my ravished soul. Yea, though I have not seen, and still Must rest in faith alone, I love Thee, dearest Lord, atid will, Unseen but not unknown. 'When death these mortal eyes shall. seal, And still this throbbing heart; The rending veil shall Thee reveal, All -glorious as Thou art. • If thought is given for a moment to such very great hymns as "Abide with me," "Rock of Ages," "Nearer m3r God to Thee," it will occur to some, no doubt, to remeniber that few hymn -writers have given is more than one such famous composition. Bishop Heber wrote us several beau- tiful hymns, but only once reached his topmost flight in "Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God Almighty," as the wonderfully fertile Charles Wesley never surpassed, if he ever equalled, his "Jesu! Lover of my soul." There are exceptions, of course; Keble, Watts, Newman, Boner, Neals are among them. But even of their writ- ings it is true that we especially as- eociate one or two hymns with each of them. Just as the consent of the ages has settled on Palin xxiii as the never surpassed gem of the whole Jewish psalter. So Dr. Ray Palmer's name invar- iably bring to remembrance the splen- didly perfect hymn:— "My faith looks up. to Thee Thou Lamb of Calvary— see , Savieur divine!" • But •a fine second to it is his other hymn printed herewith—like the first an outpouring of faith and love, Dr. Palmer composed many hymns, about forty are fOund in one or other of the hymn -books, and his "Jesus, Thou joy of loving hearts," "0 sweetly •breathe the lyres above," have won a thoroughly well-deserved popular- ity. The second place in merit, how- ever, must go to "Jesus, these eyes have never seen," which rings cham- ges upon the inspired apostle's wprds, "Whom unseen, we love." Dr. Palmer, it will be remembered, was a highly esteemed Congregation minister in the United States, the son of a judge in Rhode Island. He was born in 1808 and for some years served as clerk in a dry -goods store in Boston. In that city he joined the congregation ministered to by Rev. S. E. Dwight, a fifth son of the better known Timothy Dwight, educational- ist, divine and literary man, who has a foremost place among U, S. early hymn writers Under his influence he went back to sets -col and thence to Yale University, graduating in 1830. F.or a time after that he was a teach- er in New York, and there wrote his most famicnts hymn. Five years later, in 1835, he was pastor of a congregation in Bath, Maine. He wrote many hymns while there, and while travelling in Europe in 1847, •some of which appeared •in Lowell Mason's an other songbooks set to music'. He published several religious books, and some collections of poems add hymns, and his poems were k-athered up in "Poetical Works of Ray Palmer" in. 1876, That was two years before he re- signed the secretaryship of the Am- erican • Congregational Union, to which he had been appointed in 1865 on leaving his last pastoral charge at Albany, N.Y., lie died it his home after retirement, in Newark, N.J., in 1887. After 1843 he had not put forth any hymn until begged by Professor Park and Phelps, of Andover, where he had attended a theological school, to help them in their preparation of the Sab- bath Hymn Book, which has been characterized as the most attractive and valuable of American hymnals to its date." For this Dr. Palmer made transla- tions of four Latin hymns, which at once took high place among such ver- sions, but his first original hymn for it was, "Jesus, these eyes,"etc. He lad just finished translating Bernard of ClairVaux! hymn into "Jesus, Thou joy of loving hearts," which we know best as "Jesus, the very •thought of Thee!" From that, his heart still glowing with the words of that grand old hymn, he turned to the thought of the presence of Jesus his Sav- iour everywhere, and always in love., In a sense it is a reflection •of Ber- nard's hymn, sent back from a heart as full of devotion to his Master as was his who wrote The Rosy Hymn' or ` Jubilus of St. Bernard,as old writers dub the "Jesu dulcis mentor- ia," in the twelfth century. The tune St. Agnes was written for "Jesu! the very thought of Thee," by the Rev. J. B. Dykes, Mus. Doc. of St. Oswald's, Durham, who has giv- en us many beautiful tunes, including Nicaea, to which "Holy, Holy, Holy" is sung, and the well known "Lux Beninga" that helped "Lead Kindly Light," into popularity. Gan. Pacific President tec1areS Faith in Canada°9 Based on Fine Progress E. W. Beatty tells delegates to Canadian Industrial Traffic League that "end is not yet" although this railway has spent $386,000,000 in past decade in improvements, new railway facilities, new hotels, new ocean fleets leading to deeper pride and patriotism in the Dominion. That the Can- adian Paci- fic Railway spent more than 249,000,- 000 on capital account in Canada for Canadian ser- vices during the past five years, and that "the end is not yet", was stressed by E. W. Beatty, E. W. Beatty. Chairman and President of the Company be- fore the members of the Cana- dian Industrial Traffic League at their banquet in Montreal re- cently. With the filling up of this country and the advance- ment of its commerce, not only will new construction and new territory be required, but vastly enlarged and improved facilities in the older districts will be needed because they will be outgrown by the needs of the communities for which they are provided," he em- phasized when pointing his faith in the future of Canada and when urging upon his hearers and upon ' all other business men a "sympa- thetic regard for our needs and an accurate appreciation of what we have done and are endeavouring to do". Declaring that the policy of the Canadian Pacific Railway was one of faith in Canada and intelligent self interest, Mr. Beatty supported his statements with a series of graphic and deeply interesting fig- ures, This policy, he said,. has re- sulted in capital expenditure of more than 23863000,000 during the past decade; nripro.vements and new construction which .provided Canada not only with improved railway facilities but with new hotels, new ocean fleets and with a deeper pride and patriotism in the Dominion as witnessed by the nation-wide response to the Influ- ence and appeal of the music festivals held in cities from coast to east, which festivals he emplia. Sized, made a substeintial contri- bution to the cultural life of this Country and to 'its solidarity as a nation. Railway problems, Mr. Beatty tontinted, were no longer the problems of the railway operator, directors and shareholders exclu- sively. More and Mere the trans- portation companies were taking the business Mari generally and the public at large into their confidence in order that they could appreciate railway probleene and in turn give their Intelligent support to the transportation eompanies. The companies have three funetions to perform: to sepply adequate, ser- vice at reasonable cost; sufficient facilities to meet the needs of com- merce, and to extend and con- struct ahead of settlement in order that additional development may takeplace. These factors, he said, require adequate compensation for the service they render and adequ- more than $368,000,000 during the ate credit to provide new moneys for new enterprises. It was true that the Canadian Pacific was earning and paying seven per cent on capital stock from railway earn- ings, but more was required in order to create reserve necessary for annual caffital expenditures or part of them. Members of the Canadian Industrial Traffic League would appreciate the fate of 4 company which had to borrow everything it spent. Conditions in Canada during the lattdr part of 1929 resulting from the decrease in tbe western grain crop caused a se(rious decrease in railway earnings, but the decrease represented the result of an extra- ordinary combination of circum- stances. The railways had not failed in efficiency nor had the country suffered from anything approaching a general depression, It was not a condition to give much ground for apprehension and the situation of 1929 was not likely to be repeated in subsequent years. The Canadian Pacific Railway, Mr. Beatty said, had a peculiarly national significance in that 97 per cent of all its investments in rail, steamship,hotels, telegraphs and other activities was in Canada, and from the day of its inception its policies have been dictated by faith in Canada and by intelligent self interest. "I do not know of any combination of factors which tend more towards commercial suprem- acy than a combination of national sentiment, a sense of public duty and unremitting striving for effi- ciency, in otder that the solvency of the undertaking may never be questioned end that its owners may be adequately rewarded," the presi- dent deolaved when emphasizing that the Canadian Pacific was out- standing in these factors. "Improvements in physical eon - (Miens, construction of new lines and facilities is one way by which a corporation cart show its faith arid also its leadership", Mr. Beatty contintied, "The Canadian ruffle in the past ten years has spent Millions of &Bail on capital account in, conneation with rail- ways, ft has done many things which represent a notable contribu- tion, not only to its own facilities but to the communities in which its operations are conducted. In that short period of time, it Ins rock -ballasted over 2,000 miles ef railway, it has increased the weight of rail mad has block -signalled over 1,300 miles; also it has increased its rail mileage by almost 2,500 miles, which a few years ago would have been considered a .con- siderable system in itself. It has built at Vancouver one of the most modern piers in the world for ocean and coastal freight and passenger service. It has completed con- struction and lining of the great Connaught Tunnel in the' Selkirk Mountains at a cost of more than eight million dollars. It has borne its share of the cost of the great viaduct in Toronto. It has spent, millions of dollars in enlarging, modernizing and strengthening its bridges and it has made the most conspicuous development through the efforts of Canadian engineers in designing and constructing the largest and most powerful locomo- tives in the British Empire. The value of the Canadian Paci- fic as a good citizen was pointed out by the railway President. For many years, and particularly since the war the Canadian Pacific and many other comPanies have en- deavoured to associate themselves with, and support many community movements and to assist hospitals and educational movements. The rules which applied to individual good citizenship also applied to cor- porations. It was a frequent and logical complaint of railweys in the United States that they were heavily taxed and that this taxation was almost crippling in its effect. There was no disputing the correctness of that statement insofar as many railways were concerned, but he would willingly assume their taxes if he could be assueed of their rates. One railway of Canada, however, did not escape heavy tax- ation. In 1913 the Canadian Paci- fic's total tax bill was$1,382,000. In 1928 it was $8,038,178, an in- crease of 482 per cent. This sum represented' taxes at the rate of $21,962 per day, $915 per hour, 05,25 per minute or 251/2 cents per second. The Company, he em- phasized, was making a very sub- stantial contribution to the Gov- ernment of the country. The daily payroll of the Canadian Pacific was $267,000, its 'daily disburse., meet for material and supplies Was $220,000 ,and its dailytax bill $21,000. There figuri es ndicated the contribution to day by day 'busi. ness and Applying the same basis to the total expenditure of all rail- ways in Canada last year deVeloped the faet that the total lurri dis- bursed eXceedecl $600,000,000, or a little more than $50 for every Man, woman and elnld in the coun- try. 467 GIANT KAU141 TREE Primeval Trees In New Zealand Are • Fast Yvishing--are of Slow Growth. Only tem great privately owned • kaarl forests remain in the Dominion of New Zealand, It is mid, in a de- spatch to the Christian Science Mon- itor from Auckland. One of thee() Is at Whangaroa., in the far north, where about five months ago a start was made in cut- ting about 16,000,000 feet. There 10 no Mill now oil the beautiful harbor of Whangaroa„ once the centre of a great timber district, and the logs are towed down to Auckland, a four days' to, and milled there. The other forest is on the Great Barrier Island, at the entrance to the gulf on which Aueiclsind is ;situated. • It has long been known that the days of the kauri as a commercial timber were numbered. It is take Olt the finest timber trees he the world. It iii stated that a great kauri eon - tains more millable timber than any other tree, and as a general utility soft timber the wood has few if any • equals. A kauri forest containing really big trees, up to twelve feet through, is a wonderful sight. What is probably the largest kauri tree on recordovas 24 feet in diameter. The gray trunks rise from the twilight of the forest like great cathedral col- umn: -60 to 80 feet clean up to the • candelabra -like system of branches. To fell these giants, cut them into lengths, and get them to the mill, is a work of much labor and skill. Sometimes the logs are rolled into a river bed above a dam, and at the right season the dam is "tripped" and the mass goes roaring down to the mill. The tree also produces a valuable gum, which used to be much in demand. This gum is found in the ground over great areas where there are now no trees. orests once stood in these parts but were swept away by fire. The gumdigger can tell from a depression in the ground where a tree once stood. From, the earliest times kauri wood Was prized; ships used to call at New Zealand ports, long before there was a British government there, to get kauri spars. After Euro- pean settlement there was plenty of kauri timber at cheap rates, and con- sequently there was a good deal of waste. Now this splendid timber is a luxury. Estimates differ about the age of these trees, but it is known that the kettle is a comparatively slow grower, and the "old men" of the foreet must be many centuries old. Indeed estimates run as high as 1,700 years and more. , Fortunately there will be kauris preserved to see as sights. In addi- tion to small patches of kauri re- served here and there, two magni- ficent forests are preserved north of Auckland. One is thd-Waipoua State Forest, the largest remaining collec- tion of kauri trees. This is of incal- culable scenic value. TWIN GIRLS ARTISTS. Brought Up on Lonely Farm, Self - Taught, Successful Painters. Miss Elizabeth and Miss Dorothy Alderson, twins, who live on a lonely farm at Neasham, in Durham, Eng- land, have developed a gift for painting. They have had no special art lee - 'Sons, but their work is so good that they have many commissions, and :they occupy most ofaheir leisure mo- ments from farm work in painting and sketching together. Of tett they werk on the same pic- ture, sitting on opposite sides of the table, so that one has to paint upside down. Tivin "sympathy" helps to make this possible. I was told that when engaged in imaginative work their Ideas coincide so exactly that with- out previous planning the result is just what each expected. In appearance the twins are almost identical. Their hair is coiled in plaits around their ears and each has brown eyes. They have exhibited with success .at the Newcastle Art Gallery, the Northeast coast exhibition, and at various agricultural shows. Saving Life at Sea. Plans for an apparatus which, it le olaimed, will make submarine and Ship cre-ws safe in the event of acci- dent have been made by Mr. Jotieph Kelly, a Liverpool stevedore. At a recent demamaration biede and White mice were submerged in a watertight compartment fixed to a Model ship sunk in twenty-five feet of water, and were still alive after flee minutes. Mr, Kelly's plans consists of a watertight compartment fixed to the deck of a ship or submarine. • This could be entered through a special man hole and would be released from .a sinking vessel and float on the sur- face, Supplies of oxygen and food would be carried.

OWNS ENTIRE TOWN 1,kansas Planter Develops 60,000 Urea of Cotton and Timber—No Mayor and o Policemen. • Induatrialized farming under the far-eighted genius of R. E. Lee Wil- son, head of the largest individually - owned cotton plantation In the world, created the unusual Arkansas town of Wilson. Mr. Wilson rules the destinies of the town bearing his name because he owns it, look, stock and barrel. But his "subjects" say he is a "bene- volent despot," and eirerybody ap- pears happy. By bending science to the develop- ment of 60,000 acres of cotton and timber in the alluvial region of East- ern Arkansas, this energetic. man, who rose from orpban farm boy to master of millions, was able to rea- lize his dream of an ideal workaday community. The town has a popula;lon of about 2000,,but has neither mayor nor po- lice force. While Mr, Wilson actually owns the town, he prefers to be con. sidered as holding it in trust for 1 hose whose work has added to its value. • The community, forty-two miles. from Memphis, Tenn., boasts of its own utlities syslem, supplying ever; home with electric power, running water and zewage, a free mail ser- vice, private protection, and an ice plant. • e Other features are a hardwood inill, a box factory, a stave factory, a flour and meal mill, cotton gins, a community centre, aeid a shopping district. Besides the vast cotton plantation d20,000 acres producing a bale la the acre, the Wilson holdings com- prise 35,000 acres of timber laud, and 5,000 acres for feed crops to care f7r 1,200 mules used in cotton farm- ing. The schools care for 400 white and negro students, and have an all -year vocational program in agriculture snd home economics. Deficits in the school fund are covered by a check trona Mr. Wilson and his assotiates, Residents are assessed a small febefor inedical service and for support of churches. Cotton seed production is one of :he big enterprises in Wilson. M.W.H. Collins, in charge of the plant breed- ing on the plantation, in 1928 super- vised shipment of 1,000,000 pounds of cotton seed to Louisiana, the gift of the American Red Cross to flood sufferers. Mr. Wilson started as a hardwood lumber operator, a field in which he has gained almost as mucb promin- ence as that of a cotton producer. His lumber plant has a capacity of 75,000 feet a day. As fast as timber is cut, the land is cleared and prepared for farming. Chief assistant to the economic autocrat is his son, R. E. Lee Wilson jr., who is general manager of oper- ations. NO ANTS—NO 0000A. Disturb a Certain Beetle Which At- tacks the Tea Plant. "Without Black Ants No Cocoa," reads a sign posted at the entrance of a great plantation in Central Java. It does not go unheeded, for the na- tives hand in some four million nests of these little creatures every year, and receive payment in return..These black ants live only upon trees in- fested by the white cocoa louse. Neither the louse nor the ants injure the trees. The real enemy is a cer- tain beetle whose name is Helopeltis, which also attacks the tea plant. It has been found that when the black ants are present the Helopeltis fails to injure the trees, Apparently this sap -sucking pest is disturbed by the activity of the ants, for the lat- ter do not attack the beeae. This is why the black ants are protected Food is provided for them by picking the white coco lice from the .shells r the fruit, where they congregate, and placing them on the coeo-trees attract the ants and disturb the beetles.
