During last week the village of ,t Blyth was thronged with Christian C , I+andeavorers and Epworth Leag ttcrs , h –*Ott wits Caine to attend the fourth lit 1' d annual eonvention of the Huron County Christian Endeavor Union, In every way did it excel the prey, ious Conventions held in Winghaan, Hensall, and, Clinton,. and every delegate rejoiced. at the increased, interest and usefulness of the great Christian Endeavor movement. The opening session was held on Tuesday evening in the Presbyterian ebur a a, there being about 600 people present. As one glanced around the church the work of the Local 'Societies was very notieable for bay- ing the decorations arranged so nicely, in fact, the entire church basement and all was very suitably decorated with flowers, greens, mottoes, bunting, etc.,. and presented a very fine appearance. • A mahnmoth arch had been built at the entrance to the church and in it hung a banner "C. E. Welcome," so that one felt at home the moment they entered. The ltecoption Committee suet all trains and conveyed all delegates to the Convention church by means of a largo cab decorated with evergreens and bearing two large signs, "To the Convention." The president, Rev. J. Edge, of Goderich, occupied the ehair during the opening session and after devo- tional exercises and a few opening remarks ho called upon Dr. Ferguson, of Blyth, President of the '95 Local Committee, to give the address of welcome, and right royally did the doctor, An behalf of -the Local Societies and the Christian people of Blyth, welcome the delegates, and assured them that their invitation was meant when they extended it and that they meant it row. Rev. Jas. A. Anderson, of Goderich, then gave. an address, "The kind of people I want in my church." The address was practical and full of choice thoughts. He said that it was the useful rather than the orna- mental Christian that the church needs to -day --men and women who stand by their convictions and be busy all the time with the work of the eburch and acting from convic- tion rather than from mere fitful im- pulse. Rev. J. H. Henderson, of }Iensall, next gave an address on • "Literary and Bilile study." He said that in. this literiary age there was no excuse for • ignorance, because good books could be got eheap and every chance was given to young people to study if they wanted to. That literary study was necessary to thorough Bible study, especially a knowledge of the Greek and Hebrew languages, and yet no literary course could open to anyone God's true meaning with- out the direction of the Holy Spirit. The first session of Wednesday 'was a sunrise prayer meeting from 6.30 to 7.30, led by Mayor Holmes, of Clinton. There were about 125 i service was very r' present and the e 5 11n- • pressive. At 9 a. in, the delegates wer again assembled, the devotions exercises being taken by Rev. W. J Waddell, of Ethel. The first paper given ivas "Sociability lathe Society,' by• T. B. Saunders, of Wroxeter The second, "The Endeavor Society and the Young Haan," by E. H. Me Kenzie, of Goderich. The third "The Endeavor Society and thf Young Woman," by Mrs. DI. L.
