God save our King, and Heaven bless the Maple Leaf forever!" "in days of yore, from Britain‘s shore, Wolf the dauntless hero came, And pianted firm Britannia‘s flag, on Canada‘s fair domatn. Here may it wave, our boast,. our pride, and joined in love together, The Thistle, Shamrock, Rose enâ€" twine, The Maple Leaf forâ€"ever! Records show that the beautiful emblem was chosen and adopted in the early days of the countryâ€"â€"in 1836, At the first meeting of the St. Jean Baptist Society, representing French Canadians,in Montreal in 1834, the decorations were arranged with maple leaves, and two years later it was proposed to adopt the maple leaf as an established emblem, and the custom achieved wide favor. In 1860, on the occasion of the visit of Edward, Prince of Wales, the maple leaf was formally adopted and officiâ€" ally used as the Canadian national emblem, and was retained at Conâ€" federation in 1867. j THE MAPLE LEAF FOREVER is generally regarded as the national song of our young and sturdy nation. It was written between thirty and forty years ago by Alexander Muir, B.A., a school teacher of Toronto, and ‘ with its patriotic fervor and cheery air, despite its critics, it has steadily held its place in the people‘s heart. ‘The maple leat seems a parâ€" tigularly happy choice as our Canâ€" adian emblem, as the maple is found in every Province, and has ever been highly esteemed for its beauty and varied utility. ‘ Thanks be to God who hath made thee a Nation, Hope of the Old World and pride of the New!"

While the principle that the Church, in its doctrine and government, is entirgly independent of the State, is so firmly established in Canada that it calls for no discussion, it is still true that the Church owes to the State, the! duty of cultivating in it« members a sincere loyalty to the State. Patriotism. if one does not misread the New Testament, is one of the Christian virtues. The Teaching of Patriotism The coming of Dominion Day, the anniversary of the birth of the Canâ€" adian nation, suggests a reference to the part which the Sunday School may take in the development of an intelligent Christian patriotism.
