Today we come to the last of these little weekly messages until midâ€"September; what will take place in this world between now and then? What will happen in your life, and mine? We do not know. It is not given to us average people, us very human mortals, to see beyond' the immediate present, to penetrate either the clouds or the sunshine of today. It may -be that it is just as well; such knowledge might ill-pre- pare us for that which is to come, or perhaps limit our efficiency and spoil our happiness in the present.

ONTARIO it would appear to .be just so much nonsense, and not even funny. Money spent on tea-cup reading, or the de- sire to discover before things hap- pen what is going to happen, and money spent in such silly and wit- less methods as the havphazard' ar- rangements of leaves in a tea cup, would: be better used in other ways; when one is possessed of a healthy. normal, wholesome outlook on life, one does not worry about the future any more than one worries about the pas:, but sees to it that life lived in the present is rich and' full; then the future will look after itself. In other words, we do not know what the future holds, except in an un- certain way; even then, what we think we know is necessarily based upon that which is taking place in the present, upon what we are like in the present, and upon what the past has taught us. If we are £001- ish enough to make predictions at all, in relation to either persons or events, then let us do so on the basis of what we already know, with respect to human nature, and to the great and eternal principles upon which life is founded), and not upon the particular direction in which a fork happens to fall, the causeless arrangements of leaves in a tea cup reading of character; such gifted souls, naturally, could! tell one quite a bit about oneself, and about the probabilities of on-e's successes and failures, but all would be in direct relationship to character; when it comes to foretelling exact events, with nothing to go on, not even a character analysis, not yet a picture, Anal in con fluion, am! until Sep- tember. we will close with these fcw lines called SUCCESS, and‘ a thought for the summer, and leave you with kind wishes andl all‘ happy thoughts: Of marver or surprise, Assured alone that life and death His» mercy underlies. I see the wrong that round me lies. I feel the guilt within; I hear, with groan and travail-cries. The world conrfess its sin. Yet, in the maddening maze of things, And tossed by storm and flood; To one fixed trust my spirit clings; I know that God is good! I long for household voices gone, For vanished: smiles I long, But God hath led my dear ones qn. And He can do no wrong. And if my heart and‘ flesh are weak To bear an untried] pain, The bruised reed He will not break, But strengthen and' sustain. And so beside the silent sea I wait the muffled oar; No harm from Him can come to me On ocean or on shore. I know not where His islands lift Their frondedl palms in air; I only know I cannot drift Beyond His love and care. It is in this faith, dear friends. members and. adherents of our own congregation and thoughtful waders everywhere, that we express the hope that you may have a happy, health-giving summer and’ that we may meet again in the fall, God willing, to carry on in fellowship and mutual helpfulness for another year. The Y.P.U. is going to miss Gor- don Weedon, our popular and genial President, who leaves us to take up training in the Air Force as Pilot this week. We all think a lot of Gordon. and he can rest assured that we will be keeping in close towch with him insofar as that is possible as long as he is a member of the Air Force of our Empire an-i until he is with us once again. Incident- ally, we are sorry that Gordon will not be with us to go along; on our closing picnic andl drive on the af- ternoon of June let.

SO, What will take place in this world between now and Septemlber. what will happen in your life, and in mine, we cannot tell, ’but why worry, or wondier, or ponder about it? Let us make the most of the present and leave the future in the hands of our Maker, endeavouring to shape it to our liking only .by that which we do and say and think in the here and now. As long as we have a Champion of the rights of man in the person of Christ, and a divine Universal Father, why worry about the future? Is it not more to the point that we should be concerned with the present, and that the qual- ity of our present life should square with the will of that Divine Father the mirror.
