SIGNS OF RAIN

Kviik'iu'es of revival have hceii manifest recently in several cliurclies in Toronto. News t-onies Irom other plaees also of awakeninii' spii'itiial interest, and of convei'sions incrcasiny: in inniihcr. It may he that the tii-st drops art- lie^inninir to fall of the showers that many have Itcen prayin«r for so lon^ and all acUnowledjre are so greatly needed.

True revival is a movement of the Holy Spirit. It eonies from above, ■'like rain ui)on the mown i?rass, as showers that water the earth." It is (iod's work, not man's effort. And yet there are certain conditions whiih *'pi-epare the way of the li(»rtr' and helj) to l)rin<r about I'e- \ ival.

The great spiritual movements of the Chi-istiau Church have luid theii* springs in prayer. Sonu'times it has been the persistent, long-eontinued sujiplications of lonely and obscure saints, and sometimes the united in- tercessions of gro\ips of believers. In i»iu' of the Toi-onto (dnir<-hes Hie spirit of prayer becanu' so <leep that meetings for prayer were held every day. and continued far on into the night, it is as true to-day as it has

always been, that prayer releases spiritual forces from on high. Jt is the condition on which the fulfil- ment of (xotl's promises and the; ac- complishment of His work depend. " I will yet for this be encpiired of by the house of Israel to do it for them. "

A deepening sense of sin is an- other sign of revi\al. Not a moi-bid introspection, but a conviction of sin that leads to confession and renun- ciation of it. This, too, seems to be a more or les\s nuirked feature of the movement now going on. To confess sin is to acknowledge the need of divine grace and nuike way for it. "Repent ye. therefore and turn again" was Peter's message to the dews after Pentecost, "that your sins may be blotted out, aiul that so there nuiy come seasons of refresh- ing fi'om the presence of the Lord."

One thing that is needed very much to-day is a retui'U to the pi'caching of the Cross of ("hi-ist. Kvery great revival has been (diarac- terized by a rediscovery of, or a re- newed emphasis ni)on some aspect of redetMuing grace. It is tod)e feared that during the war the uni(pic tdiaracter of the death of Christ was

Soiiictliiii^' is iiftMli'd iinw to put tlu' cross of our Lonl Jesus Christ wlierc it helouys in tlu' fon-froMt oT ihc wlioh' scheme of i-c(h'ni|»tion. •'.lestis Christ and llini crufiticd."" was the iiiessji^^e Taul carried into the worhl of his .hiy. and he found it to he the i)o\ver ..f (mhI unto salvation. It hroujiht new life wherever it went. Men ai-e as weary of life and as oppi-essed with sin to-day as they were in Paul's tin\e. and only the old and well-tried remedy can meet the i)re- scnt need.

iClVoi-ts to secure moral reform and social uplift have their place, lint we see no si'TUs that the Kin^nlom of Heaven is coniin«r in that way. These ends have conu' in the past usually as the result of reliiiious revival. Discussions about the fnndanieutals of the faith and al»out eschatoloiry have theii- value. lint these alone eannot hrini^- ahout a spiritual (pii(d<enin^'. It is a livin»i' Saviour eonunjr home to the heart of man that is the essential e.\j)crience in every Lreiniine i-evi\al. And Avhat is needed for this is not simply irood advice, li\it a irreat cvaniiel.

1920 CLASS REUNION

If is only when friends are alioiit to he separated that they realize the stren«rtli of the ties which hind them to each othei*. and thus a reunion — a tiiiH' ftu- renewin<r old acquaintances an<1 i-evicwinjz past cxi)ei"iences — is always looked forwai-d to with true delight.

The (Iradnation Class of 1020 has l)eeii favored in so far ;is its nn^nhers canu' lo^ethei- at a tinn- when the school was smallei- than it is now. so helpin<r towards a moi-e pei'sonal and int'mate triendsldp. and have i"e- inaincd to«rctlier — at least a propor- tion of them for thrc" full sessions. 'To fuj'thei- «<t renirthen this hond of

fi'iendshi|>, a I'cnnion was planned for .January 4th. 1!)21. the Hrst day of the new term, takiiifr the form of a farewell to Miss A. .M. Jiooth, the lirst nu'ndx'i- of the class to sail for the Koreijiii M ission field.

All hut three memhers of the (dass i^athered for supper in the Ladies' Kest-room. whiidi was opened to the men for the e\enin<r, Principal and .Mis. .M.Nichol. .Mrs. K. Blake, .Mrs. (iray. Urv. T. H. Hyde, Mr. Booth, and .Mr. llerhert L. Ti'oyer hein^ our .uuests. FoUowinii- sui)per, a hrief time was spent in si)iritual and social fellowship. After Scripture readinjj and prayer, those present hrieHy re- lated the i^athway over which eaeh had heen led since the parting last spi'ing. and many and varied were the testimonies of appreciation for the work of the College, and of pra'se to our Lord and ^Master for II is eN-er-sufficient grace. Whether upon the prairies of the West, in the husy rush of city life, or the quieter si)here of the home, all gave thanks- giving to Ilim Avho "doeth all things well.'"

A duet sweetly rendci-cd hy two sistei's. brought a blessing; then, per- ha])s, the most important event of the evening, the presentation of a dainty yet durable wrist-watch to INfiss Booth from the Missionary Society of the College. Mr. Hyde, on account of the Bi'ineii)al having to leave early, aptly ex])ressed our thoughts towai-ds our sister, who replied with a few heart-felt woi'ds.

.Miss Booth left the city the next day for China, whei-e hci- brother and othci-s of our T.B.C. family are serving oui- common Master.

The i-eninon is a thing of the i)ast; Itiit not so its intluences — these I'e- main : and through the coming years, from our scattered spheres of service, our hearts will return to the quiet ami happy moments .spent together in the "upper room," — W. G. W.

Rev. George A. Williams ['\'-l) writes from Tamsui. Formosa :

"Kindest regards and ^i'eetinjj:s to all students of T.H.C. 1 trust that the Colleure has exporieneed a year of ^reat blessing. T was delighted to learn from Miss Pitman that sn(di a large number of students had en- I'olled at the begiiniing of the fall tt'l'lil. The blessing of (lod is evi- dently resting upon the College. Th-' deei>er I get into Chi'istian work, the more I am convinced of the gciniinc and abiding worth of the course (Mivcred. By no means the least of all the IxMiefits is the stamp that is placed upon the life of the student

Mr. Arthur Hawtin, of Jhaiisi, writes: "I often think of you and the T.K.C. es])ecially in times of ti'ouble and stress, w'hen one is in- clined to feel discouraged because of the |)owers of evil in the world, an<l (Specially in this land of sin and darkness. The great truths that you and the other mcMnbi-rs of the faculty have always endeavored to instil into the minds and souls of your students have never left me, and have had a great influence in encouraging and steadying me in trying times; I feel that it would be a grand thing for the mission cause if all missionaries could take a cours(> in your College, or one with similar principles.

Dr. Wilkie, 1 understand, is mak- ing a sti'ong apjx'al for unich-needed helpers luM-e. We all sincerely ho])e that a strong young man will conu' out to take ov(M" the Avork while lie is with us, so that tlu^ newcomer may have the benefit of his rich experi- ence. The work is by no means easy, and two or thi'ce years with an ex- perienced missioiuiry would be of great \alue. If with him could also come a friend and helper who could take charge of the scdiool and work aiiu)ng the wonu'U, it would be a grand thing. For our farm coloniza- tion woik. there is scope for zeal and talent, i^'oi- a few years this l)ranch (d' the woi-k was most difficult, and T have felt my inability to cope with it as 1 should, but every year it lie- comes less arduous, as we have trained some of the Indian people to

The woi'k is by no means monotonous, but bi-intrs into pra<-ti- cal use nearly all that a person may have b-ai-ned. The main (pialifiea- tion. 1 think, would be a thorou.ijh grounding in Bible trnths sneli as one reeeives at the T.R.C., a practi- cal knowledjje of agriculture, al- thouifli the theory would be also most us<'ful, ability to control, direet, and instruct people who are not always able or anxious to learn quickly. One who has firm faith in Cod and the missionary cause, will find a wide field for service.

Rev. John C. Procter ('K)). writ- inii' from .Muye. .M.S., Angola. Via Mongu, N. Rhodesia, South Africa, where he is working on the Andrew .^^u^ray ^lemorial Field of the South Afriea General Mission: "AVe left New York on June 3rd by the S.S. Eten. landing in Capetown, after a delightful voyage, on June )}()th. We had a remarkable passenger list, for, of the 66 i)assengers on board, more than half of them were missionaries and their children.

At Capetown we wei-e delayed for Jiearly a month waiting for a steamer to take us to Lobito Hav. There was

no steamer in sii;ht, however, and We concluded that way was closed. .M'tc!' prayer and i<insultat ion, it was decided to tra\e| inland, and ap- proach the lield j'roiii the eastward. This would entail eiKU-mous expense, liut it was the only way, and was Cod's \\;\y. So leaving ('apetown on the 2Sth -Inly we traxelled to Livinir- stone. \isiting X'ictoria b'alls en route, ;ind by o.x wagon to Katam boca. Here our goods were checdvcd and loaded on barges for the long trip up the Zandx'si, and after a de lay of ten days, this interesting stage of the joui'nev commenced oji Aug. Kith.

It would take too long to tell of the hippo hunts and the fishing and hunting for ganu' along the shores ol the river. We did not get a hippo, but we did get a do/en large fish, and twelve head of deer from Mr. l^ailey's rifie, and a zebra from mine. This effectively supplied our larder with fresh meat for the entire trip of twenty-four days on the rivei-.

At Lialui, ^Ir. Jakman met us with a lai'ge cai-avan of SoO carriers, i.nd we soon started for Angola. The ladies were carried in machilas or road hammocks, and we made the .iourney of 200 miles in ]'.*, days. There wei'e thirteen missionaries in our party, for we had been joined in Capetown l>y Dr. !\rartyn Watney and Miss ]\adeliffe, two workers from England. We rested on Sun- day and half a day on Thui'sday, so that our trek was very fast indeed, only eleven and a half travelling • lays. Arriving at .Muye we were given a very touching and en- thusiastic re<'ei>ti()n by the natives and white workers, Mr. and Mrs. McCill and theii* little baby son of four months of age. Since then we have been very busy, as you can well l)icture, and T have little time for h'tter writing yet. I\emend>cr me to all the .students at dear old T.B.C."

Hi-ietly he re- viewed the Hible as "the greatest l>ook of the past" in its intluenee upon indivitlual (diaracters. and its ( tVeet on racial and national history. I'.arnestly he urged our i-everent irratitude because of the achieve- MU'nts of the Book in the lives of men in the days that have gone.
