eupposed to know his own .country, so
the Christian should know God's king-

product of which was joy and peace iu
the Holy Ghost.
Rev. Mr. McGee took as his subject
"The Christian training of children."
Ab childhood is the battle -ground of
Secretary of the Presbyterian church,
'spoke on "Scripture memory work."
The things that influence us are those
that are fixed in the memory, and they
are not always the best; by storing
our memories with, Bible truths they
will enable us to overcome terriptat.
The effect of the Bible.on-lives is
parent, such as Bunyon, Gladsto
etc. Our thoughts are moulded in our
younger years by those truths acquired
when it is a pleasureto learn them.
The afternoon session was opened by
a song service by the children, under
the leadership of Rev. J. L. Small,
Rev. Mr. Hartley condueted the devo-
tional services. Rev. Mr. Ferns ad-
dressed the children, taking up the
subject of the heavenly honie ; only
one way to Teach it, Christ being the
Way ; He suits the various wants of us
all. The first impressions, made in
childhood, are the last to leave us in
old age. Lying he compared to open-

God, winning the ch 14 for Christ
should be the first ideal. The child's
training often decides his life ; our
character is formed, ira,a great meas-
ure, from the training we get. The
importance of training is often -wit-
"leased iu. regard to plant life; we en-
deavor to give the best soil, and every-
thing is done to procure the best de-
velopment of the "plant life, whilst we
often neglect the greater -the child
training. How strong the force of
obit; by aid of companions and -envir-
onment we must teach good habits,
then we will be able and strong to
fight the forces of evil. Habit may be
Chained tcavice ; a life of sin never can
rise -so high as that whichhas not been
'stained by vice. A right relation
should always exist -between children
and parents, and Christian training'
preferred before a fortune. Teach
obedienee not by the terrors of the
law, but overcome by love. By being
true oureelves we can teacharuth to
children, and inculcate a reverence for
God's house; His word and day.

The missionary work in all depart-

the day. The salvation -of men and

tact and care we can interest them in

see God's dealings with that people
portrayed in the sacred pages ; we yet
