A FINAL WORD.
No one can thus review the story OF
hundred years In the life of corpora e
church without devout gratitude for
what has been and is. There is a grac-
ious Divine power In the midst of it all
standing fast within the shadow keep
ing watch above His own" We cannot
dare not put our finger here or there
al the time and say. this is His" But
in the Years and the centuries, IN the
lapsH Of the generations tho touch OF
guidance or OF rebuke is palmer
We have our pecularties as a Chris
tian church. OF some of them, doubt
iess we ought not to he proud. But Of
others the steady insistancc on free
dom, on the right of reason In religion.
the love of and welcome for new truth
wherever it shall appear, q desire for
the simplicity Of Jcsus Christ freed
from the mist even O: reverence that
has gathered round his image. the unity
of God and of man. and a dstrust Of
emotionalism, eXtraVa gan ard Cere-
moriallsm In religion. Of these peculiar
tiles we are not ashamed. SO there Is
unity OF the spirit which runs like u
thread OF gold through all this pruden-
tial and providonual history The tale OF
the past Is fnisned but with a surge of
feeling. love. hope faith in God and faith
in lifes goodness we front the coming
years.

Excellent fiction is provided
for the greater part of the Aug

which'has just reached us. The
place of honor is given to a nov-
elette by Anne Story Allen, who
mas written too seldom of late
years. 1t is called Poppy and Her
Aunt Lucie, and is full of quiet
humor, while carrying the in
evitable love interest to happy
conclusion. ,Imogen Clark has a
delicious child story for adults
one of the best we have read for
many a day, in Margery Repre-
sents the Family, Annie Han.il-
ton Donnell has rather un-
usral theme in The Peters Pud-
ding; and there are the conclud-
ing installments of The Fall and
Rebuilding and A Garden En-
chanted. A collector narrates
more humorous adventures in
search of old furniture, which
have the merit of being abso-
lutte truth. Few women know
how much the government is pre-
pared to do to aid the housewife,
so everyone should read the pa
per on the subject by Mary Ham,

full is Laura A. Smiths article
on Womens Clubs as the Clear
ing House for Women Workers.
Anna Barrows, the well-known
writer on domestic subjects, has
a very timely contribution on
