THE MINISTRY OF SYMPATHY
That iii the. suoject set, chosen, I
• should imagine, by someone of poetic
temperament Certainly only by
someone ofpoetic spirit could it be
adequately +dehlt with. This shuts
one out from any such dealinge._ But
ear, in what poor prosaic way we can, let
us
ge4 at it, seeing the time is short
fid the subject many sided.
Etymologically,„, suppose, the
word.,.. sympathy, means to suffer
with another, bet as commonly used
it has comae by wider ranges of slg-
nienden, indieating agreement or.
fellowship' !n'any and every possible -
huprateceperienee, whether of Joy or
sorrow,,. -
Ono danger against which we
roust guard at the outset is that of
comprising it with melt maudlin ren-
tlmentality as spills tears too easily
answering no worthwhile end in
either its giving or receiving. We
best may guinea this . danger, per•
hape, bynoting' ,,that our -subject its
the miistry, • tee service of. .,rem.

The service may be subtle ,is that
of sympathetic nerve, musical note,

must 1*. And"the more real end fine
the sympathy the higher and more
effectual the service.
There is the direct service to our-
. ceh-es, We ourselves can hardly be
said to make progress in any way
without sympathy. We menet get in-
to sympathetic accord wit -any, even
the most homely subject of study,
before we *Nan begin to understand
it at all. And vse surely Must be in

Surely to reprove is to play the old
Caanutian game of bidding the'tides
stand 'still. The joyous sense of
great adventure is the breath of life
to healthy youth. Mistakes will be
made, many and trigle mistakes --
though not more, - maybe,: than we
and our -fathers have "mule. But
through them, all, and. in ',pito of -
them all, youth has the right' to ex-
pect the sympathetic aid of :rge and
ex;'erience. And surely the greatest
of *11 Idealists is Watching the ways
of the day -dreamers of our time with _
sympathetic eye! Surely He. "with-

And of Him must all such sympa-

But after ail, there is a universal
undertone. of sorrow we must note.
Youth and age, .,kith in its way,
knows this. And to deal with such,
to "weep with theta who weep," to
sympathetically serve sad hearts,
still more to serve some Way ainring

phases of service. And again what

tion toward Mr. Graham as he is
about to leave this community to

Georgetown, in which we wish him
very much success. Ile has been a

we as friends take this opportunity

pressing hie great appreciation of
the gift ;esti his regret at having to
leave a ' host of Mende behind in
Goderich, where he has resided at
the home of Mrs. Halliday for the.
