Why is it that with all the present-tiny interest in every thing calculated to make coun try life more attractive, there has been so little serious effort to revive the old-fashioned singing school? Fifty years ago it llourished every where throughout the northern part of tliecountry. It may have reached its highest development in New Kngland, but it was not by any means confined to that region. Nothing except town meetings offered u social opportunity so ; democratic, and town meetings ; belonged exclusively to the men j The singing school brought old j and young together, in a com- j mon interest, as few other forms of social diversions have ! ever done. It afforded both 00 , casion and place for the meet-; ing of the sexes under condi-! tions the most unobjectionable, j No one will know how many happy marriages have resulted from acquaintances first made at a singing school or friend ships which ripened into love during the long walks back and forth. Lastly; the singing school promoted interest in the most j broadly human of all the arts, I and thus became on influence j for the moral aid spiritual! health of the community. There are old persons to whom those evenings of song are now ! a memory they wouui not wil lingly lose a link to youth aud home and early friend ships. Does the whist-party fill the same place? No other single influence draws young people from the country to the city so steadily as the desire for larger social opportunity as nothing else can. The Scotch and the Eng lish know this. They support their rural singing schools with enthusiasm. Competent judges have recently declared that in no part of the world has the mass of the people attained to such a high degren "f vocal culture and musical intelli gence as in Scotland and Wales. This general interest in the an of singing has been found to be a powerful influence for the ed ucational, social and religious improvement. Youth's Com panion. BRER WILLIAMS. You let me hold you close, beloved, and say That you will love me forever and a day, And yei, I hesitate, tire I put my lips 10 yours, A picture comes to me through halt-closed doors: Ah God ! If only I had been too late 1 saw him hold you there closely to his heart, And as you two stood, from the world apart, I moved on with head bowed low, For, ere 1 passed, in your eyes I saw The light that never was on sea or shore; Ah God ! I love you so ! And now he's gone - and you come to me And let me hold you close and I look 10 see In your eyes that light, beyond jewels rare, Or anything in the world; 'twas there for him, And, as 1 look, the world grows dim; Ah God ! It is not there ! And if he should cross our path again In after years, beloved, what then? The answer is for you and I. Could you turn from him bid him go? Ah God !

The Christ in whom Christians ! believe is not the Christ of yester-1 vice once and day, nor of tomorrow, but the Christ of today. We love to read of the Son of Man as He walked i and talked with men in Palestine. ; We love to picture how He looked ' and He talked to the woman of Samaria as, wearied with His jour- I ney, He sat by Jacob's well. We love to think of Him as He took : little children in His arms and blessed them. We rejoice with the widow of Nain as she receives her son, and with Martha and Mary as La.arus is made to live again. ; We delight to read of this Christ j and these mighty works that He I did, but the Christ of Judea and I Galilee is not the Christ we need ! today. We love to read and think j of the Christ who burst the bands ! of death, triumphed over the grave and sat down at God's right hand. And this Christ we know is coming again to judge the world ' in truth and grace. ! Our'eyes shall see the King in I His beauty. We shall stand before Him to give account of the deeds done in the body. If we are faith ful we shall hear Him say. "Well done, good and faithful servant, enter thou into the joy of Thy Lord." But if we attain to goodness and keep our fidelity we need not only a Christ who was once here, and who is coming back some day in power and glory; we need more than a Christ to look back upon, or forward to. We need a Christ who is just as much alive in the 20th century as He was in the first, who is just as really present i in the world today as He ever was j or ever shall be. ! What does it avail a people to ! ; know that a Saviour once lived in 1 1 Galilee, if there be no Saviour for j them today.) How does it help the sinner to i ! know that the Son of Man had j j power on earth to forgive sin if! there is no longer any one to say, 1 "Thy sins are all forgiven thee?" !
