Church Preferment In England.

The plain truth is that not a few
church appointments during the last IL
years have seriously weakened the epis-
copal Lonch, and it is high time that
someLCLy SPOKE out and said openly
what evl-yLcGy has been saying in pri-
vate. The bad old days of the court
bishop are h%prily past But it seems as
if, in selecting men for high office in
the church. more Importance is attach
ed to considerations of family and con-
nectiCns aLC private means Than to the
matters which are really e primary
moment. Surely in these democratic
days such considerations are, to say
the least. CT minor consequence. The
serious issues which are now before the
church render it an absolutely vital ne
cessity that her leaders should be select
ed from among her very best men.
What would be thought or said if the
judges fer example, were, chosen ON So
cial grouEus rather than for reasons of
personal capacity and fitness? And yet
it is the simple fact that an ordinary
churChman is at a loss even to guess at
the reasons which dictated the nomina-
ton of at least one-half the present
bench of bishops, to say nothing of
deans and CanCns. What makes the
matter more grave is the significant
fact that the majority of these question
able appointments have been made
within the last IL years and by three
different prime ministers. What is the
result? Omitting the two archbishops
and the bishops of Wales, whose APP
pointment is governed by exceptional
there are not more than
ten of the remaining 2S sees which can
be said TO be occupied by men of the
first rank, whether regard be had to
eloquence, personality, adj
ability or any other quail /
fication necessary to their exalted office. F.
Or the rest, some may be ranked as
good second rate men, but there remain /
at least ten prelates who cannot even
attain to that distinction. Saturday

The Mother and the Bow.

The mother shapes the boys charac
ter, her face the first sight, her arms
the first refuge, her life the first exam
pie. But for Rachel and her training
the history of Joseph and of the Jewish
nation would have been entirely differ
ent. The hand that rocks the cradle
rocks the world The time for seed
planting of true greatness is in the early
years of boys life. This is the moth
er's opportunity. The spirit Of God
from heaven, the influence of men on
earth and the temptation of satan sur.
round the boys of today. Mothers, guard
the boys before it is too late. Plant
your seed. Take interest in everything
your boy does Let him have games at
home, or he will go where there is no
home Plant the seed Of greatness, kind
ness and purity while the ground is soft,
you do not live to see the
fruitage. Rev. T. C. Easton, Presby.
