Jerusalem the Golden with milk and Honey Blest beneath thy contemplation sink heart and voice oppress i know not o i know not what Joys await us there what radiance of glory. What Bliss beyond compare. They stand those Halls of Sion All jubilant with song and Bright with Many an Angel and All the Martyr throng the Prince is Ever in them the Daylight is Serene the pastures of the bless eco Are decked with glorious Sheen. There is the throne of David and there from care released the shout of them Triumph the songs of them feast and they who with their Leader have conquered in the fight for Ever and for Ever Are Clad in Robes of White. O Sweet and blessed country the Home of god s elect o Sweet and blessed country eager hearts expect Jesu in mercy bring us to dear land of rest who Art with god the father and spirit Ever Blest. Church paper urges Aid for students throughout the Church says a recent United Church observer there is growing concern Over the problem which Many of the candidates for the ministry must face with regard to the Cost of their necessary education. Fees in arts colleges have sharply increased and living costs Are High particularly for students who must live away from Home As is the Case with most of the candidates. Nor can they afford to go into debt Tor their education for unlike those in most other professions they cannot look Forward to receiving after graduation salaries Large enough to make possible the repayment of substantial debts. The Church helps them 10 a limited extent but not enough to solve the problem for Many. In this situation some generous Church people have seen an Opportunity to lend a hand through specific bequests. This year for example one woman s will on being pro bated was found to provide Over for this purpose. Another will has been reported in which a much larger sum is bequeathed As a Trust bearing name the interest on which is to be used to help candidates for the minis try. Thus one Man has honoured the memory of his wife with a f u n d bearing her name All Down the years will live in a truly vital Way in the work of the Church. Bequests made to the United Church of Canada for this purpose will be administered without charge by the Treasury department and the Board of colleges and secondary schools thus making the full amount of interest earned available for the students. Than this there could be no More direct or significant Way of enriching the life of the Church or of Perpetua Ting one s own name or of someone dearly urges the observer in conclusion. Read St Matthew Miguel de Span ish up what 1 was trying to say a week in his tragic sense of for him existence is Ren dered tragic by a conflict at its very heart. Here is the tragic pre human life upon reflection is found to be a self refuting system in the course of its evolution it had evolved the fact of death the very processes Subserve and promoted life prepared the Way for its extinction the virtue by which it was adorned could not Guaran tee it against nature t the love which was its Crown should add a crowning anguish 1.0 its tragedy. Is there any Way of escape re Ligion is an offer of salvation but salvation is not offered unconditionally. For Unamuno it was Only when the Depths of the abyss had been revealed a new Hope Rose for Mankind. The same truth is defined a Dante whose great poem although he called it a comedy was really wonderful example of wha Unamuno meant by the tragic for Dante too it was no until the lowest round of hell had been hell which ii Only human life revealing it nether most the ascent began the ascent which let through Purgatory to Paradise thus the sense of being lost mus precede the sense of being saved and religion is responsible for both but the trend of modern civilization is All in the opposite direction for the ultimate issues of human destiny we substitute the immediate problems of the economic am social order. The occupations o our Leisure Are no less carefully designed to prevent the tragic sense from breaking in upon them hence the wide spread craving of amusement hence the crowding together in cities hence the Strous cult of erotic fiction in the novel and the moving picture. Oui modern life has become an organized and cultivated reverie. Running to seed and All the time our National character is running to seed. W Are turning our nation into a Vas eleemosynary institution in which an economic system itself run Down and inefficient through Lack of Enterprise and imagination in feverishly ministering to the in exhaustible necessities of a derelict proletariat which it is powerless to save. And what is the role of religion the Church adopts a smiling attitude has be come modernized socialized democratized secularized has sue combed to the Sophis tries of humanitarianism has undertaken to provide Bright Brief services specially designed to catch the Young while All the time the first need of the age is for a searching diagnosis a exposure a laying life Bare to the Bones. Our present Day religion has become so centred in Mankind it a almost lost the faculty of worship the of god is the least of Al our fears. The Paradox of the situation is having become Man centred instead of god centred the religion of the present Day had ceased to attract Man to itself. Apparently a religion where Man is All in All is no religion for Man. Need we wonder the Bright Young people of our universities and Are not nil equally no longer interested. Religion can never Hope to com Pete with the excitements of the roaring but it hat excite ments of its own the chief of the Wrath of god. First the of god the conviction of sin and then the love of god. In we place the love of Christ before the of god. We do so with the Best intentions but with deadly results. Youth is not afraid to face the truth. Lot them take religion seriously for so taken it becomes As professor Whitehead had described it a great adventure and adventure is dear to the heart of South.
