UflcaUon for some ot the criticism but he deprecated the all-round criticism of everyone and every thing, statesmen and teliglous leaders. The leaders In this country were not generally corrupt and self-seeking. A bad atmosphere was created, a poisoned atmosphere, as a result ot the atUtude of mind which was ready to accept criticism pof everyone and everything. The second me.iace which the Archbishop saw. was the attitude of mind that relief for the present condlUon could come only in some change of the system or form ot government Instead of seeking a cure the tendency was to sit down and await a solution through some hoped for big change. The old method of hard work which was the old cure for depression was a good one. It was the pioneer spirit which had made Ontario the great pro vince that It was. The tenacity of the early setUers in spite of difficulties, hardships and even famine was something to be admired and emulated. It was tar different from the modern method of sitting back and letting others do it. The third attitude which the speaker considered a menace was the cynical spirit toward everything that was taking place. A cynic was one who snarled af. life and who asked "What is the use of anything"? The cynic did not believe that order, goodness and beauty were of the essence of things. It was the spirit of denial Indicating a lack of trust. The antithesis was that goodness, beauty and truth, which some called Ood, were the only things that mattered.

Mr. Macpnerson dealt principally with the creosote oil treatment of timber for preser vation from decay and the ravages of Insects. Decay of timber, he pointed out, was due to the para-1 sitlc growth which fed upon the timber and which was commonly known as fungus. This fungus to thrive required air, moisture and warmth. To prevent the growth of fungus, the fibre of the timber was poisoned. In this connection Mr. Macpnerson described in some detail the treatment of timber by creosote oil under pressure. Of local interest was Mr. Mac- pherson's statement that the tor food In the water. The purpose of the toredo In bdrlng was to make a home for Itself.
