'The services on Sunday were. more.
than ordinarily interesting' and were

ing to art excellent congregation. The
new organ was used for the first time
in regular. Sunday services, the organ-

she gave "The Rosary." Mr. Webb
rang "Fear Not Ye 0 Israel," and "I
Love '\'ou.' i, Mrs, lium•phrys and Mr.
Webb rendeniel as a duett write Lord
Is My Light." ' Being .recalled they
sang it a,second time, the last rendie-
tion being even more pleasing than the
first• rs. Humphrys scarcely needs
a word of commendation in Clinton,
so well known are her musical pow-
ers, suffice it to spay that she sang with
her usual sweetness. Mr. Webb manic
as ti stranger before a Clinton audi-
ence but his singing was very much
enjoyed.
The recital was well attended, the
church. being well filled not only by
the me+tubers, 'who were anxious• , to
hear the new organ tried out, but by
niany music lovers from all 'the coin-
gregation& in town who are always
eager to avail themselves of such a
treat.
The Ontario street church people
are to be congratulated upon acquir-
ing such a fine instrument which
should worthily lead the service of
song in that congregation for at least
a generation,
,The prayer of dedication was made
at the beginning of the service by
the pastor, Rev. T. Wesley COWAN,
ed and Mrs• Howard Humphrys rend-
ered the sacred solo, "If IIs Should
Come." '
The evening service•was composed
almost entirely of music. The choir,
which 'was- reinforced by a few good
outside voices, rendered a couple . of
anthems ice a very Creditable manner:
the male quartette gave- a selection,
and a quintette, composed • cif
members of the male quartette a;msist-
ed by Mrs. W. Ross, alto, sang very
.sweetly "Jesus Lover of my Soul."
Mrs. Humphrys gave two solos at
this service. lien ifrst .selection was
`The Italy City" which ,she rendered
in splendid voice and with much ex-
pression, to the delight of the large
congregation. Later she sang ''Come
Unto; Me", also. very charmingly. 'Thd
pastor gave a short address`, taking
for his subject sonic of the ,beet known
and mast popular hymns. The bene-
diction warm pronounced by Rev. Mr.
Newcombe, whet oc'cuupietl a place upon
the pulpit platform•.

A REPORT OF THE MILLINERY OPEN-,
INGS, ESPECIALLY INTENDED
FOR THE LADIES.
Once again the millinery openings
have co'meand •gone, Ieaving us sad-
der ? Well, wiser, anyway, for surely
we have added something to our know-
ledge of woman's headgear and• its
conssth:uction. Somewhere it was slat-
ed at the beginning of this scasarl
that there "would be nothing new in
hats this season; no decided departur-
es at all ; that the fall styles would
be content to follow the lines laid
down for summer wear." -Per-
haps that; fact is patent to a trained
eye, but the average, ordinary individ-
ual
ndiv id-
ual will bear out the statement that
nothing like some of the hats shown
this season was even seen on land or
sea before. ,
