OUR NATIONAL DAY.
,The first. of July is distinctly a
Canadian holiday. Other countries
celebrate Christmas and New Year's,
the,Queen's Birthday and- Thanks-
•
• giving- Day, La, Dominion Day . is
Cana,ta'. oo n,And has been so, ever
since a preciarnation for carrying into
effect the enactment of the Imperial
Parliament,"for uniting the ‘Province
of Canada, Nova Scotia and New
Brunswick'into one Dominion, under
the name of Canada,. was given by
Her Majesty at Windsor: •Castle on
the .?.?.,nd May 1867,' declaring that
on and after tbe • first clay of. July,
18'67, the said provinces ,11,111 form
and be one Daminion, under the name
of -c amide." '
. -
That proclamation' toOk 'ellect thirty
one years ago. Some of the sanguine
hopes built upon it have • been. disap-
poieted, The political millennium
• that senile Canadians looked for has
not arrived. Canadians still have;
to grab 'for aliving, and pay taxes
and wear out their old clothes, and
sweat id summer, and shovel snow in
winter. But, with all its drawb. acks
Canadians would not undo it if . they
could. The First of July is a holiday.
The people go on excursions, or bold
pie !lies, or visit their country:cousins.
They do not listen to much patriotic
oratory. ft is pot a great day for
waving the flag. Perhaps thereveuld
be more of that sort of thing if.. the
new Dominion had been baptized in
Wood thirty-one years ago. But as
it is the day off is thoroughly enjoyed
by tte younger element, which can-
not personally recollect the birth of
Canadian Confederation.
HOME -LESSONS.
. At the Normal School closing
exercises in Toronto lately, Hon. G.
W. Ross, in speaking of the Ontario
Medical Association's discussion of the
schools, said: Referring to the com-
plaint that the home lessons prescribed
-.hy teachers were so heavy as to
curtail, unduly, tlio time which should
he spent in -physical exercise. Mr..
Ross said that it was mistakenly
.supposed that those lessons were
imposed by the department. He
would not say that the teacher had no
right to assign home lessons, but when
a parent sent a written notice to the
-teacher askingthat his child be
excused from homework, or where the
teacher thought the work of the
sehoolroom sufficient, no howe lemons
1* prescribed. A teacher had a right
to insiet upon reationable application
and diligence in the schoolroom during
the five hours prescribed by the law,
but the teacher's authority to assign
,home lessons could only b3 exercised
in concurrence with the implied wish
of the parents. Ile did not, however,
wish to inter that he thought home
lessons were not useful. He thought,
however, that problems too difficult
for the child to solve without assis-
tance, or,in fact the solution of any,
problem not within easy reach of the'
I
child's attainruentsi should not be
assigned. let.
1 here was some difference of opin-
ion as to the wisdom of holding • a
regimental catnp in Walkerton.' Some,
of the volunteers thought that they
would not learn as niUch in a regi-
mental camp as they would where
several battalions • were asserobled.
We have spoken tcl, *wend of the,
officers and the general' verdict is that
the tnen have improved more during'
the first week here then they would
learn at London in the .twelve•• days
-that the • camp lasts. Among the
reasons given for the statemenis. are
that in London guaM and picket duty
is done, by the perinaaent, force and
the yelunteers get no opportunity tJ
-learn these duties.' Then there are
so many officers in the large camps
that there is much cmifusion and
countermanding of orders. 1 fere they
have only the Colonel and his aides.
to give Orders and cinfueion is avoided.

OBITUAIL Y. -II 18 our painful duty
to record the sudden death of Andrew
Ritchie in his 42nd year. He was
born in the township of Minto, near
Mount Forest. He came to Ashfield
about 23 years ago. He was the
eldest of a large family. He was
converted to God in a revival service
held at Zion about three years ago.
He has been since his conversion an
active member in the Sunday School
and Epworth League and held impor-
tant offices in both. Much interested
in the service of God he was very sel-
dom absent from the sanctuary. His
sickness was short, but his end was
Peaceful. He was found watching.
His funeral was one of the largest
e..er seen in this locality, which at-
tested the respect in which the deceas-
ed was held by the community. Rev.
R. H. Hall, Nile, officiated in the
burial service in the absence of the
pastor who was sick and unable to
attend. The dolEeased was an honored
and respected member of Maple Grove
L.O.L. No. 1044 and Lanes Court of
He was buried tinder the
aespices of Lanes Court whose mem-
bers and those of Lucknow Lodgee
attended in large numbers. The im-
pression Eervice of the 1.0.F. was
read by several members present. He
was an affectionate father and oblig-
ing neighbor May the consolation
of God be with his widow and child-
ren who mourn the loss of a father
of precious memory. His remains
were interred in Zion cemetery there
to await the general resurrection.
We trust that all the family may so
live that they may meet tkeir dear
one on that blessed shore where all
tears shell be wiped away. The
family have the heart -felt sympathy
of the community in their sad bereave-
ment.

voted in favor of adopting the new
rules and the feeling was very general
among the saleseuen that :Imre such
condition was necessary in order to
carry on succeasfully the business of
the Board. SOW; of the salesmen
remained neutral, being quite willing
to fall in with the new rule if it
operated successfully, others were
doubtful about the wisdom of adopting
the rule and five'of them voted against
it, some of whom, however, expressed
themselves afterwards as being willing
to give the matter a fair trial and to
iccept the benefits derived therefrom,
if successful. Cheese boarded was as

Ink J. LEAROYD
Preaches the Final Sermon of AIM
Pastorate In the et, Marrs
Methodist Chursh.
St. Marys Journal.
The fins! sermon of his pastorate
was preached at the Methodist church
last Sundiry evening by the Rev. J.
Learoyd. A congregation was pre-
sent that filled the church. Mr. Lea-
royd did not preach a "farewell" per -
mon but at the close of an °easiest
discourse from the text, Ite v elation
210, 'Be thou faithful unto death
and I will give thee a crown of life,"
he referred to the fact t•hat this was
his lest appearance before his hearers.
"To -night," he said "was the close of
his ministry in St. Mary's, Ile was
truly grateful for the many kindnesses
of the St. Mary's people. He had
been with them six years. No other
:ethodist minister had 'pent a 1012-
er Lune 19 the town and though an
interval of 30 years had intervened,
many of those before him he well re-
membered as members of his congre-
gation thirty years ago. Ms ministry
was marked, he felt, with many im-
perfections. No one need tell him
that. He knew it as well as any
oody else. He had not the strength
of body the past gear to do what he
would like to have done and he was
grateful to his people for bearing with
him. He did the beet he could. He
had not tried to please any man, but
jut tried to preach his Master, He
was ready to confess re was very
sorry to leave St. Marys. It was a
very comfortable p)ace kr a man to
be. No unkind woods had been said
to him durieg his pastorate. If they
had been said, they had not beenrsaid
to him. He referred to the good
work of the Sabbath School. His
labors may not have been crowned
with the success be would have wish-
ed but he that goeth forth and weep-
eth, bearing precious seed, shall doubt-
less come again with rejoicing, bring -
g his sheaves with him, and his
prayer was that in the great Day
when they would all meet as co -labor-
ers, all would not be lost.
Mr. Learoyd has had much to con-
tend with -during the past yeti in the
way of physical infirmit es, and it is
with inuch pleasure and satisfaction
his congregation have seen him make
such rapid and steady improvement
the past months. He goes to his new
field in better health then be has en-
pyeal for some time. He has been a
faithful wotker here. He is plucky,
oourageous, cheerful, hopeful at all
times, never complaiwnsi or despoil
dent, and possesses few, if any, of ti
.ainesses of roost men of his yea s.
