Those who ars complaining of the cold weather don't have much to say when their attention is diverted to Halifax. From the way in which the counter revolution is starting in over in Rus- sia it looks very much as if it meant business. ieneral Allenby entered on foot but he must have been aware before that that the USA was right in the center of Jerusalem The man on the corner say! Zood intentions were paving blocks the question of permanent roads would be quickly settled. 1€ The bolsheviki are said to be. re- sentful at Germany's hard terms, but that will amount to about as much as the protests from Norway and Spain & It is a peculiar state of affairs when the bolsheviki prefer to fight their own countrymen to the government that is an enemy to the greater part of the world. If the elactric lines about the coun- try 'keep insisting upon increased fares it is entirely possible that they will get the government interested in their control. That ptorm of indignation which bas been provoked in Madrid by the nking of another Spanish ship will probably. amount to no more than a minos local disturbance. Strange ‘as it may eeem there are a lot cf people in this country who claim to be patriotic. who are less willing to work than wthwrs are to risk their lives for their country. The rounding up of the Germans in Halifax, the port to which all allied and neutral fressels wall, has been started. But hasn’t there been a lot of needless delay in such action? There seems little chanee of the re- speasibility for the Halifax horror being fixed upon Germany, but if sus- Dicion is directed towards it there is no one to blame but itmelf, The school children are not only sesing their opportunity- to thelp raise the war funds with their pennies but th.s are taking advantage-of it in highly commendable manner. An investigation of the coal and suzar situation is promised. There are a good many people who think that it is time to give the promises a zest and <ot down to work. conscience, but we manage to keep them apart. We recognize it as a good thing for George, but not for our- selves. We do not appreciate each shining hour, do we? We.may he surprised some time by the accbunt of the num- ber of golden moments and shining hours we have let slip. If we know ourselves as we ought. we are aware we have more lazy streaks than are creditable -to - us.. Laziness was long ago labelled as the leading hereditary sin of human nature.. If indulged the cobwebs of laziness turn into chains. Lejsure is.its genteel name.. And ye eventually doing nothing becomes hard work. - The lazy man always yawns thrice where the busy man yawns once. Sloth is a, name that fits it—a slow crawling animal! Very well repre- sented by humap beings who waste good time hunting for soft-smaps. It oftener_lgoks more like a twin to stu- pidity than like the first cousin to it, for it puts.the mind to sleep. Egotism and laziness like.to sit down together— they are chums It is now being proclaimed that the food-hog s everywhere a national curse; and I am wonderinz how much werse he is than the heartless specu- lator. The food-hog.in this country isn't getting half a chance when the corn-crop run. six million bushels anead of all previous records and In- dian meal is selling at 3 cents a pound and hen feed at 4 1-2 cents. Eggs at 70 cents the dozen and oysters 75 cents a quart, and éverxthing else from two to three times higher.than it was three years ago, except the average wages. It the food-hog means the speculator in foodstuffs there is no reason why he should be left to.menace his coun- try when alien _fire-buss, = criminals and even sympathizers ' are . being rounded up. What is needed is heavy blows in the right place®and then constant hitting. A member of the British parliament calls attention to the fact that the world peeds the restoration of the Ten Commandments just as much as it needs 'to.see Belgium justly dealt with. The wreck that has been made of the Christian religion by the rape of Serbia, the rending of Rumania, the ~devastation and depopulation. of Belgium and the making of a desert of northern France, and the calling of the Turks by Christians to mur- der Christians, and assisting in the butchery of the Armenians, has left no permanent.basis upen which a world’s peace may now be founded. It the Christian religion cannot command the loyalty of Christian nations, and if honesty and honor are dead, what is the use of expectine a permanent peace. It is mpossible. Cruelty for I W. W... .

It is not so much the goal _one has reached as the direction in which he is going that counts. If ome con- tinues to head right, he is bound to ar- rive in the end. - The ‘Apostle Paul nev- er claimed that he had reached his goal but he was perfectly sure he was on his way to-it. . “Not as though I had already attained,” he said, “either were already perfect. but 1 follow after.” We ‘can be sure of the ulti- mate arrival of anyone who will stead- tastly “follow after” his ideals. Two ships at sea -may apparently be following the same course; they are bucking the samé gale and plow- Ing through the same sort of waves. As a matter of fact, however, the two courses sailled may be very different. One craft may be steadily beating to windward into the eye of the gale, while the other is falling off to lee- ward and steadily losing distance. It takes but a slight difference in di- rection to make them bring up at widely different ‘ports. So it is with individuals. The aif- ferent purposes and motives with which men pass through life are bound to tell in the final outcome. In. spite of many- faults and failures one may have the root of the matter in him any may be tofling up the steep ascent to heaven. In spite of occa- sional good resolutions and generous déeds, the other may be constantly d tericrating in ‘character. Human trav- elers seem to be meeting about the same obstacles along ‘the way but the “set” of souls is very different. The oider theology made a sharp distinction between those who_ are saved and those who are lost. Would it not be nearer the fact, we ask, to think of the race as divided into those Who are being lost? - What we are able to observe in this world is ten- dency in character. Great moral pro- cesses are going on, the consummation of which stretches.out beyond our vi- sion. The question-is not, .what is this one now? but what is this one becoming? : Present attainments may be disap- pointing unless one can look beyond the present to' what is coming by and by. The very imperfections of life are beautiful when they .are prophetic. Benjamin West 5aid that a kiss by his mother for one of his earliest pictures made a painter of him. Doubtless it was a poor enough_little daub, but of boundless promise to the mother heart. A teacher looks at the copybook page a lad has written and praises it warmly. She tells Johnnie that he has done very well. We ook at the scraw- ing lefters and wonder whan she can see to approve in them. The beauty is in the improvement the page shows over that of yesterday. -The teacher can see that the lad is improving; that some day he is going to write a reallly fine-hand. There are defeats emough for any- one who is striving to live a right life. But defeat is dishonorable only when it comes from lack of effort or cow- REG. u. rar. orr. Dorchester OO course.
