First Sunday after Epiphany. Holy
Eucharist Z and 1890 a. m. Sermon
at 1880 a. M The Lost Christ.
Evensong and sermon 80 pm, Subject
"Ihe TransgressiOn of Adam and Eve.
The Womans Guild will hold their
annual business meeting at the Rectory
Thursday. January II. The nature ol
this assemblage requires the presence
of each member.
Next Sunday evening the Rector in
tends to preach the first sermon of d
series on Old Testament subjects. The
course will last until early in the sum-
mer and it is hoped that they will prove
both interesting and helpful.
1t is a common opinion that the lives
and characters in Old Testament histo-
ry are dull and uninteresting, that they
have little to teach US in the light of
modern learning and advancement.
But such thoughts are not possible
when we realise that the Bible was not
written with a purpose of being an
authority on the physical scinces, much
less was intended to be primarily an
historical recold. In these respects it
was simply adjusted to the conditions
and conceptions Of the age in which
written, that it's words might appeal
more directly to the people to whom it
was first directed. The true provence
Of the Bible is to teach man something
deeper. Its purpose is to teach man,
the fine art of living. The art of life
under the limitations of time and it's
relation with that fuller life in eternity.
Mankind comes into the world today
under the same laws that our savage
and rude fOrefathers first entered it.
He lives, in main, under the same rules
And though science has made it pos
sible to prolong life under conditions
which wauld have been fatal in a ruder
age, yet man must leave this scene just
as certainly as did the generations, now
beneath the dust.
And as a consequence Of the con-
stancy in the leading conditions of
human existence. the relations of man
to God are constant too.
And in considering the character
studies and historical sketches of the
Old Testament there comes not only d
message from the ancient world. but
also message from God himself that
can make our own lives more simple
more noble, more real and more grand
'Lives Of great men all remind us,
Wf, Il II |
And departing, leave behind us,
Footprints on the sands Of time,

es'' is the title of publication, the
initial mum Der of which has recently
come from the press. 1t is published
| by The North w estern Line for diStrib-
ution to station agents and other en-
ployes interested in the handling of
traffic
On the various divisions OF the road
the agents have organized local Agents. s
Associations, one for each DIVISION
and at their monthly meeting various
problems that conf ont the local agent
in the performance Of his daily duties
are discussed, experiences recited and
new methods suggested for the better
ment Of the service. These discus
sions result in much practical good to
all concerned.
! The interest manifested by the man
agement Of The North Western Line
in these Agents meetings and the
value placed on their expressions, is
indicated by the opening paragraph of
the Bulletin:

that it is deemed advisable to secure d

as possible -
When the management Of Il corpora

their local subordinates s.have been of
such interest and inspiration'' as to
call for the trodhe and expense OF
giving them wider distribution among
officers and fellow employees it is obvious
to all that existing industrial problems
are in fair way to meet a solution
along the most satisfactory lines to all
concerned.
The employees of the Chicago &
North -Westerp Ry., it seems to the
editor, are to be congratulated upon
this movement which serves to bring
them into closer touch with their su-
periors. many of whom have grown up
with the erowth of the road and ad-
vanced to places of responsibility from
the lowest ranks.
