TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RICCOIQD 13 life at Fort McPherson on the Mackenzie Delta. Life there. he said, was a never-ending source of interest, for a mis- sionary had to be a real jack of all trades. He had to be a carpenter, a doctor, and had to do innumerable other varied and interesting tasks. Then, in conclusion, he told us of the wonderful work being carried on among the Indians and Eskimoes in the far north, and how there was need for more men to carry on this inspiring work. On Sunday. October 11, Sqn.-Ldr., the Rev. D. A. Foster, R.A.F., who is stationed at Kingston, spoke in Chapel. He told us that nowadays there were a great many dangers in this world, some of them to be faced and some avoided. To-day, he went on to say, many yoimg men all over the world are having to stand up to dangers. They face these dangers gladly, not seeking a way out, because they feel that they are doing it for the good of the world. Christ set the example when he gladly gave up his life on Calvary's cross, and we must willingly follow his example.
