Church Unity In Canada.

The movement to unite the tongrega-
tlonal. Methodist and Presbyterian
churches of Canada is now regarded as
substantially complete. The movement
began in 1902. when the three churches
appointed committees to discover what
the differences were between the or
CARNATIONS and whether union were
possible. The committees met several
times in Toronto and reported that the
differences were insignificant and that
union was not only possible. but ad-

not matter of haphazard chance.
Everything there Is done according to
the divine order. No man Is above
the law, no man below the law. no
man independent of the law. The d.
vine law reaches out everywhere,
places Its sentinels ON guard and says
TO Judge and defendant alike: II am
