Golden Text: Take heed, watch •nd pray; for ye know not whec the lime U.â€" Mark 13:33. In the final week of His ministfy COT Lord spoke more particularly of •vents to come. He foretold the de- (truction of the beautiful temple "There shall not be left one stone npon another, that shall not be thrown down." Forty years later this prediction was literally fulfilled. So enraged was the Roman general, Titus, at the stubborn resistance of t tkc Jews that he ordered the temple to be fired. The melted gold ran 4own between the foundation stones. The Roman soldiers in their quest for the gold saw to it that not one â- tone was left upon another. The destruction of Jerusalem wu a judgment of the Jews. But Jesus taught the judgment of all nations. He himself will return and reward «Tcry man according to his works. There are various views with re- •Itcct to the exact order of events connected with the return of our Savior. In regard to some details it k better not to be too dogmatic. But «ntr individual responsibility is strik- ingly clear. We have a work to do. At an hour now unknown to any on ••rth, our Lord will return and take account of our conduct. We arc ttterefore to be in life in constant readiness for His appearing, for on His approval depends our eternal happiness. Let us therefore pattern •or lives after the Bible standard, taming from sin and trusting in Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior. The life of faith will be characterized fcy works of faith. There wil' be nw frustration of the •onrse of justice at the final judg- ment. He who wills now to be our Savior will then be our judge. He will not judge merely by appearance kot will judge the secrets of men's hearts.

Beat Seller For Four Hundred Years Four hundred years, and still. a best seller is quite a record. That record will have been made on Jvn* the 9th of this year (1949) by the Book of Common Prayer. This book was first pubished "at ye aigne of ye sunne," Fleet Street, London, in- 1549. Since then, hundreds of edi- tions have appeared, not only in English, but in dozens of other languages, from Japanese to that of Haida Indians of British Columbia, from Esquimaux to that of the an- cient tonsne'5 T.atin, Greek and He', rew, to the iiiodern Esperanto, -o ingeniously rontrived to be a second laii;,'uage tor all.

When few cou'd read, the language of the Prayer Book was heard, week by week, by multitudes of simple folk, and the dignified and euphonious phrases of that book entered the common speech of the people We owe dozens of fine expressions, in frequent use, to the Book of Common Prayer. The Prayer Book is largely in the lan- guage of Archbishop CraTimer and of Bishop Coverdale. The English of the Prayer Book is of the Golden Age of our language. A hundred and fifty years later, in the reign of William and Mary, a revision was prepared which for- tunately did not win i^proval. It is now lost on the dusty shelves of CO ieye libraries. A long-winded per- iod ot English writing had begun. Long sentences with dependent clauses, long words derived from the Latin, replaced the vigorous .^nglo-Saxon words, and the short se:;tence3 of the English of the Golden Age- William and Mary's re- visers took Cranmer's perfect Col- lects and puffed them out with pious platitudes. But, thank God, this re- vision was never accepted. English speaking folk did not have their dic- tion spoiled by listening, Sunday by Sunday in the House of God, to such bombast The language of the Book of Common Prayer has a wonderful rhythm and euphony which makes it delightful to read or to hear. It is full of lovely phrases quite peculiar to itself. "We bring our years to an end, as it were a tale t'nat is told"; "We have erred and rayed from tliy ways like lost sheep"; "That peace which the wor'd cannot give"; "Pass our time in rest and quiet- ness "; "Show forth they praise, not only with our hps, but in our lives"; "A due sense of ill Thy mercies." Some have criticized these supposed redundancies of the Prayer Book, such as "rest and quietness," "erred and strayed," but these not only provide rhythm, they also serve a j real purpose in corporate worship. I They give our slow minds time to grasp the thought, when it is given first in a word of Anglo-Sa.xon dt- rivation, and then one of Latin origin. The Book of Common Prayer was the earliest effort to provide for all men in one book, the Church's cor- porate acts of worship. Hitherto there had b' u a book for the ser- vices of daily prayer (the Breviary) and another book containing the service of the Eucharist (Missal), yet another book containing the oc- casional offices, and another with the Bishop's special services. These were all in Latin. The peopie were provided with a book (the Primer.) containing a few private devotions in their mother tongue. By simplify- ing the services, and translating them into the mother tongue, and making them available in one handy volume, the worship of the Church could become corporate, as it had been in the early centuries. Instead of the priests in the Sanc:-jary re- citing the service among themselves in one language, while the people in the nave engaged to private devo- tions in another language, all could now worship together. The priest could recite his part, and the people could respond with theirs. The ideal of the whole community, rich and poor, high and low, clerk and mer- chant, craftsman and farmer, house- wife and workman, offering to God the life and work of the whole par- ish with common understanding, could be realized.

When two men and a girl are getting into t!ie back sest of a oar. how should they proceed? A. One of the men should open the door for the girl, who enters and sits in the middle. One of the men enters and sits at her right, the other goes around the car and takes the seat at her left. Q. Is it good form to type a sipnatnre on a business letter? A. Not unless it is supplemented by a pen signature. Sometimes this is advisable when a person's sig nature is very illegible. Q. Does a woman rise when she is being introduced to another woman about her own age? A. Not unless a much older woman is making the introduction. Q. When a man meets a woman acquaintance on the street, and turns to walk with her, should he offer to carry any parcels that she may have in her arms or hands? A. It would be the courteous thing to do, provided the parcels are rather large or heavy, but somewhat silly if the woman is merely carrjring a book, or some equally small package. Q. What is the average amount of the fee the bridegroom gives the clergyman? A. Usually from'ten to fifty dol- lars, according to the bridegroom's financial ability.

Cle^rke We must surely bt "by the gods beloved" becanse every time we ar- range to have a meeting here it is a nice day â€" and often a nice day sandwiched in between rough or stormy weather. Last Thursday was no exception.â€" warm, bright sun- shine all day â€" even warm enough to bring a few daffodils out in bloom so that I was able to have spring flowers in the house. All this cheeri- ness was very acceptable as our httle get-together happened to be the annual meeting of our local Women's Institute. Everybody knows what a headache an annual meeting is at times, and how often it is dreaded. But there was no need to dread this one â€" everyone was so agreeable, and willing, and co-oper- ative only once did we hear that little word "no" after a nomination had been moved, and it was excus- able. 1 was really proud of our branch. So here we are, ready to launch out on another year of ser- vice for Home and Country â€" just like other branches all over the province. The day after our meeting it was cold and wet â€" and then turned to snow. So you see why I think we were lucky â€" or maybe it was just the Institute that was lucky. Now that I am nicely started on one of my favourite topics I might as well keep it np â€" just in case there may be a few women somewhere who have not yet reahsed what a worthwhile organization we have in the W.I. Perhaps you are a new- comer to your district, jJfrhaps you may even be a newcomer to Can- ada. If that is so there will be plenty of people in your district that you have never met; customs you have never heard about â€" and the best place to find out about both is to join the W.I. The country women of Canada are friendly: there is hardly one who would not go all-out to help a neighbour in an emergency. They have always been so inclined, but I must admit that somewhere along the way, and more especially of recent years, there hasn't been the same visiting back and forth there used to be. Women, these days, rarely ihnk of just slipping on a coat over a clean apron or house- dress, picking up a bit of sewing or mending, and stepping over to Mrs. Goodenighbour'g for an afternoon visit. It is hard to find a really satis- factory explanation â€" dear only knows women fifty years ago were busy enough. Perhaps it is that country women, now that a lot of them have household conveniences like their town and city cousins, have a'so absorbed some of the self-suffi- ciency â€" perhaps I might even say self-centred attitude of the town dweller. You know how it is â€" a woman in town can live for many months in a district without even knowing her next-door neighbour at all. We don't want that to hap- pen in the country â€" it is surely something to guard against. Neigh- bourliness is an essential to country living. The newcomer, who thinks he â€" or she â€" can be an isolationist, is always the loser in the long run. B-t â-  '-iti'i.i^ takes time â€" and if we feel we cannot take that time to visit back and forth as often as w« would Uke to, then the W.I. pro- vides a medium for neighbours get" ting to know each other and dis- cussing their common problems. It is also a contact from which many a dear and lasting friendship may be the direct result. Yes, farm folk need the Institute as never before because we don't even get a chance to visit on the telephone the way we used to. Party Hnes are all so busy these days that there is hardly time to say any more than hullo and boodbye. But perhaps there isn't a Women's Institute branch in your district. That is an obstacle easily overcome. If there isn't one, start one. There is no time like the present; no per- son better for the job than YOU. Phone your neighbours; ask them if they would like a branch organ- iaed in that district, and if they will help. Do you know what the an- swer will be? I'll tell you. Nine out of ten neighbours will say â€" "Yes, it would be fine, and I'll be glad to help . . . but I'm not sure about joining, I am afraid I would never be able to get to the meetings â€" I am just that busy." But don't let that discourage yon â€" it is what most of them say. If you are sincere in -wanting an Insti- tute branch, get in touch with your District President: call an organ- isation meeting and the rest will lake care of itself. Y'ou will get your Institute â€" and the ladies WILL turn out to the meetings. Y"ou can lay your hand to your heart on that.
