Mr, Robert Walker dropped to
to an easy chair in the . living
room of' his Quebec home,. kicked
off hig shoes, sighed -wearily and
said to "his wife and daughters,
."Work, work, work, if .that'a all
there is In lifej I've had enough
of it" .
" Annie Louise, the youngest of
' the three girls, went ' into ' .the
kitchen and soon came back with
a , glass , of cold water. ' "Here,
Daddy," she said, as she handed
hira the cooling draft. "Drink

.' He drained the glass, handed it
back to her, stretehed out in the
chair, and said, "If I had known
that the life of a civil engineer
would W like this, I "would have
taken my father's advice and
Btudied medicine."
"Oh, don't worry, Daddy",
his eldest daughter said. "When
the famous Grand Trunk Railway
of Canada is all finished, and we
board the train for the first ride
we can boast that our father was
the key man in its construction."
"Then we'll he the envy of
every girt in Canada," the second

Mrs., Walker, finally managing
to get a word in edge-wise, added,
And then, I hope, we will have

our home in England."

. !, wV-u the railroad is finished
we can give this country back to
Indians, or whoever you give
a country back to. And it S back
to iollv old Staffordshire for me;
back to Brewood, my home, sweet
home!" she added enthusiastical
ly. Mr. Walker said no more,
for he had already given up the
struggle and fallen asleep, ,
When Mrs. Walker (piotloned
to her three - daughters to be
quite, they tiptoed silently out of
tfha room and adjourned to the
kitchen to help with the prepare
tions for the evening meal.
"Why do people have to work?"
Annie Louise asked her motner,
as they were doing the dishes
later that night. ,
Mrs.'- Walker smiled at her
youngest -girl, and answered.
'Some people think work is a
cure but I cannot imagine a dull
er life than one devoid of all work.
Time would hang so heavily on
our hands, we couldn't stand it.
Of course, there is always tne
danger of too much work; but
too little work is almost as great
a curse as too much. Look at the
idle rich we-knew back in Eng
land, how they go from pleasure
oalace, to seashore, to mountains,
gallavanting all over Europe, in a
vain aeanch for happiness, n
they weren't so rich, and if they
had to work for a living, they
would' be thousand times happier
and healthier. Work is normal,
idleness is abnormal and un
christian.
Annie Louise, sometimes point
ed out as "the gentlest, sweetest
and prettiest of the three Walk
er girls, couldn't get away from
that conversation. It crowned
her wakine hours and haunted
her dreams at night, until she
said to her oldest sister a few days
later. "I'm working so hard try
ing to get away from work, that
I even work in my sleep and wake
up so worn down that I have to
sit on the side of my bed to rest
up."
Her sister laughed, "If you
are that mixed up, Louise, try to
sret it out of your system some
way fbr other, before it becomes
contacious."
The following Sunday to Tier dis-
may as , wall as enngnienmem
the, minister of ' their . church
preached on the words pf -Jesus
found in John 5:17, "My! Father
worked hitherto and , L work".
"God is still working" hjf said to
his congregation,", and' hi will al

and whispered lik, "Give
chance to explain." .." ,
"Yes, Cod is still t work in
continuing the process f crea
tion," the clergyman' continued.
"This world is not fully complete."
By no 1 means is , it a perfect'
world. - jCreation is a continuous
and continuing process that -we
can see in the constant ' growth
and development of plant and
animal life. Not only in that way
is. 'Our Heavenly Father still at
work, He is constantly revealing
more of Himself and ' Hia crea
tion to us. The more we know a
bout the heavens,'- the more we
know about God; the more '- we
know about medicine and science,
about i geography and historyy the
more we know about- God. since
He is not limited to any specific
age in history, people "a thousand
years from now will know more
about Him in many of his crea
tion miracles, than we do now.
That is not to say we will know
more about Him than we find in
Jesus. Oh, no. But we will have
greater knowledge of his continu
ing creative and revealing mira
cles as we learn more and more
about Him in so many different
and varied ways."
As thev walked home from the
service, Louise said to her father,
"He said that God was a work
proving the truths of the Bible,
as well as awakening the con
sciences of Hia children every
wViere. I never thought of Jesus'
words in that light before. Then
when he told us that we were ex
pected to work for Him like Jesus
did, it really hit me right between
the eyes. What was that verse he
quoted?"
"It was John 9:4," her fattier
replied. "When the disciples ask
ed Jesus if the man himself had
sinned or his parents to cause
him to be born blind, the Lord re
plied, Neither the man or (as
parents, but that Uhe works of
pod might be manifest in him. I
must work the works of him that
Bent me while it is day; the night
cometh, when no man. can work!"
"The night cometh when no man
can work!" his youngest daugh
ter repeated to herself. That
memorable night in 1854, eighteen-year
old Annie (Sometimes
called 'Anna") Louise Walker,
went to her xoom, sat down at her

surprising that t' o poem has en
dured, and more remarkable .that
it was so quickly accepted as a
noble Christian hymn. Her first
stanza contained these lines:

The poem was' published for
the first time'' in' the auttior's
book, "Leaves from . the back
woods",1 dated 1861. Set to the
lilting music of Lowell Mason,
it first appeared in a Christian
hymnal three 'years later, in 1864.
Annie Louise Walker returned
to England with her family in
1863, 20 years later in 1883 she
married a well-to-do merchant,
Mr, Harry Cogdill and made her
borne near Hastings, England un
til her death in 1907. Although
tshe was the. author of six very
popular novels and two volumes
of poetry, she 'is remembered to
