Until that time comes, the responsi
bility of the Christian college is only
the more important; therefore our pre
vision und provision demand infinite
wisdom, generous titinnclal co-operation,
adequate equipment and capacity
for illimitnblc service. Ilnvlng visited
many of our Christian colleges. I de
clare with lively satisfaction that the
fiber of the students Is far from flaccid.
Itury Differences of Opinion
A few moments ago I said religion
was not (icnominntionalism. It wns
only n prophetic wny of saying that n
united i-rniesiiiniini would more
clearly express the real principles of the
religion of Christ. Home snv that It la
only n pleasant dream I believe it to
be u realizable ideal. Two yenrs ago
the Columbus Assembly declared its
corporate convictions most definitely,
thnt 1'resbyterinnH nrp ready to sub
ordinate their sectarian pride nnd de
nominational mncblnery, whenever
necessary to tho greater claims of n
united Church of Christ. Those who
applauded that step two years ago may
be pardoned If they express disappoint
ment because the progress toward the
consummation of that action has so far
been slight. Worthwhile conferences
bnve been held, some denomlnntlonnl
fences lowered1 certainly stripped of
their barbed .wire practical financial

Is Your Hair

Dandruff, thin and falling

of the scalp which lead to

the stagnation of the hair

do the other organs of the

deplorable that the Presbyterian Church

nil tbese years have kept us apart.

stronger than wnter. Here and now,
permit me once ngnln, to give hearty
npprovnl to the action of the Colum
bus Assembly, when it declared :
"It Is to be noted that our church
lias long been forward hi Its expression

HAIR TONIC
is more than a mere tonic.
It contains nature's own
energizing force, a force,
found in no other hair
remedies, which goes
straight to the roots and
provides the massage-like
tJ-catment necessary to
revive them and bring
about the proper func
tioning. If your liver is sluggish
your whole body suffers.
If your hair roots are
stagnant baldness follows.
The radio-active properties of Radior
Hair Tonic have the endorsement of
thousands of English men and women.
For years it has been featured in the
