Mr. Whitmore said, in part: It was a great day in the history of the race when a young man barely thirty years of age stood --- in the midst of a congregation of much older people and fearlessly unfolded before their astonished minds His new programme for so ciety. In one sense it was an old programme and had been pro- claimed by the prophets of old time. What struck the people as being new and dangerous and re- volutionary was the way in which Jesus Interpreted it and made it His own special slogan, reminding them that what appeared beautiful on Sunday counted for nothing un- leas it could be worked but in their lives on Monday.
It was for a young man to tell the world that God was a reality, that real religion was not merely a creed to be believed but a life to be lived, that all the fine talk about lovely principles and high Idenlism and the New Age was but the noisy clanging of cymbals, if love did not give men the courare to put some of this idealism into practice in the ordinary, everyday relationships of life. To-day, modern youth stands unafraid be- fore all the accumulated tradition and prestige of the elder genera- tion and demands a larger voice in the shaping of the world's af- fairs. "This world will be ours for a long time after you have left it," youth says. "Therefore we claim a right to say something of the kind of world we are going to live id"

Men like Handel and Wagner in. the realm of music; Shakespeare and Dic- kens in the realm of literature; Da Vincy and Romney in the realm of art; Nawton and Pasteur in the realm of science; Wilbor- force, Shaftesbury, Lincoln in the realm of politics; Livingstone, of Carey and Hill in the sphere missionary enterprise, these ara but a few among a host we must always respect and hold in sacred memory. And there are women, too-Florence Nightingale, Mary Slessor of Calabar, magnificent Josephine Butler, whose centenary we lately celebrated. These and many like them have handed on to the race à priceless treasure of *** inheritance.
All Not Well..
One of the most dangerous philosophies of life I know is summed up in the words; "God's in His heaven, All's well with the world." God is in heaven but we know very well that all is not well with the world: Ong of the greatest gifts youth can bring to this world Is a fearless and honest criticism, and as we look out upon the world to-day we must surely realise that the blessings we have: inherited from the past are by no means unmixed. In spite of all the beauty and worth of its achievement the last century brought us the Great War, and we still find the world a playground for vast forces which blight and sear and maim human life.
The glory of youth is its strength its strength of years, its strength of hope and purpose. It would be unfair to take the But he was a wise man who added varied social and industrial life of "The beauty of old age, is the this Colony as an example of the hoary head-the grey head of exstate of things generally, in the perience.

For instance, "If ‘Kodak' film were any faster than it is, it would be fickle in temper. You would not be able to take such perfect snapshots alike in brilliant sunlight and under. cloudy skies. Your negatives would be either over-exposed or under-exposed, and your prints would either be flat and

This essential property that 'Kokak' film has of apsommodating itself to varying conditions of light; and thus connecting possible errors of exposure, is what is technically known as 'Istitude.'
