OUR CONTEMPORARIES.

Bruth China Morning Post,

Are Things Satisfactory ? We want to hear and know that things are being done and that good results are following. Our hearts and sympathies are andeithatized. They are still. quick, and some of as suffer acutely: Loved onos already gone; voices for ever silent, yet determination is unabat ed; the fixed purpose to see this war through and settled remains nawavering. The national and personal recolation knows no alackening. Only we would like to hear more and see "something tig doing." We have faith in our great, Heaven-sent leaders; hope, without which we could not fight; trust for the fature and ultimate victory, but it is well from time to titan to take stock, to review our guine and losées, and with can- We dour examine our position. think we have no great reason for being despondent, but we know that we have n tough fos and a eerious problem still before us, and, thanka be, we are this ide of heaven, and heaven is on this side, so viotory will be ours.

Hongkang Mortar. Some interesting problems in connection with building in Hong- kong have been brought once more to the notice of the general. public by certain proceedings in the local Magistrates' Court. The main facts of the case are quita simple. A local contractor was. proeeceted by the. Building Au thority for using mortar which was alleged to be of infer ior quality, 1t is not charge; the records of the Courte show that, from time to time various local builders are proseonted and fined for what is

Under the circumstances a convic tion seems to be a astural, and indeed the only paible, sequel, to a proscention. And yet this was adjourned particular caNS time and sguio, much expert evidence has been called, and a great deal of discussion has taken place as to whe.bor the defendant was, or was not guilty of using anguitable mortar.

At the outset of the war the cause of religion was called upon to endure the reproaches of many, Eoth friend and fas, upon her atter bankruptcy. It was urged by some that the Charch should olors ils dcore and take down its sign since it had failed in the supreme hour of its test. A year of warfare has brought many revisions of earlier views, and one of there from a writer in The Methodist Recorder (London) puts the failure not upon religion, but upor civilization.
