It was rather mean of Sir Robert Borden to says he would resign and then to reconsider his decision. A number of nice things were said of him which would have been reserved until he died had it been known he was not really dropping out. It is like a corpse coming to life again and reading his obituary notices. We are glad to know that Sir Robert is well enough to con- tinue in the position. It is not seriously intended that he shall fill it, however. That seems certain. He is to be the figure head and someone else will try an apprentice hand at conducting the affairs of the country. Everyone will be interested in the choice of a new leader, but not quite as much so as if that leader were to assume officially the office of premier. Union of Effort Among the Churches. (Contributed. Most laymen are reticent concerning religious questions and religious experiences. Just as a man does not blazon abroad the intimate conversations he has with his wife, or his son, or his daughter, so he is inclined towards a commendable reserve on the great question of communion with the Infinite. It cannot be doubted that most men who by the manner of their lives have won the deep regard, or the admiration of their associates, have had periods of exaltation and of deep spiritual satisfaction. They do not analyze their feelings in public. Neither, when they en- joy the beauty of a rose are they moved to dissect it with the botanist’s scalpel. Some men are differently constituted. They are found in “revival meetings” conducting introspection in public and in- dulging the emotional side of their natures. Neither class has the right to criticize the other too rigidly. Temperaments and habits differ. But both the vocal and the reticent man of re- ligious sensibilities are agreed on certain cardinal points. ‘They accept the New Testament as a rule of life. They are convinced of the supernatural splendor of the Great Teacher, and of his continuing power for good in the world. They believe that prayer is a mighty force, and that the ills of society are curable by that mystical exercise. Therefore, they support the activities of the organized churches, and particularly the Home and Foreign Missionary work. On miner points of doctrine, they will probably differ, firmly, yet respectfully. In the United National Campaign, five denominations of Christians are associated. Men who find spiritual aid and com- fort in ritual and men who find ritual a hindrance, may have good reason to worship separately, but they have~ better reason to say with one voice that the Gospel is the greatest treasure of life and that it should be brought into closer touch with weaty humanity. There is a co-operative basis for these denominations. It is the Apostles’ Creed, and the Sermon on the Mount. It may seem strange that in the past this unity of spirit, this “essential one-ness” has not been emphasized as it might have been. Perhaps, preoccupation with denominational concerns may have been to blame. But the comradeship of war awoke a new understanding. The ambition of all Christian people is to serve their generation as well as possible; first, by mending their own lives, and secondly, by spreading abroad the conception ot human brotherhood which is the beginning and end of the Gospel. All denominations can help in that work. Five of them are try- ing it in concert. p _—_e a 5 i ~~ ee — Every order during the "Xmas ane rush. This is the place to do ante your "Xmas shopping.
