McDermid, of Goderich, presided. The Rev. T. W. Goodwill B.A., formerly of Cobourg, who was recently inducted into the pastoral charge of Blyth and Au­ burn, was introduced the court by the interim moderator. Rev. Alfred McFarlane, of Clinton. Mr. Good­ will begins his ministry in his new charge with a people who have won from Presbytery the finest express- -ions of praise for their courage, lo­ yalty and ligerality. The report on Overtures was in­ troduced by Rev. A. MacFarlane. An Overture to restore the status of ministers on the General Assembly’s Board of Administration to accord with the long constituted usuage of the Church, • of equal numbers of ministers and elders, was approved. An Overture that the General As­ sembly meet biennially instead of annually and that the powers of Sy­ nods be enlarged, was disapproved. An Overture that the word “sincere­ ly” qualifying the word “believe” be included in the formula to be sign­ ed at the ordination, or induction, or reception of a minister, was ap­ proved. The report of the Treasurer of Presbytery was presented by Mr. F. G. Weir, of Goderich, and the Audi­ tors report by Mr. Henry Strang, of Exeter. The books showed a bal­ ance over the expenditures of the year of $35.37. The allocations for the Presbytery Synod and General Asembly Fund were adopted to accord with those of the past ytar. Rev. R. C. McDermid laid the Bud­ get’ report before Presbytery, and showed the encouraging progress- and response upon the part of all congregations toward reaching a reasonable Budget amount of $7000 and complimented among others Ca- ven church, Exeter, for its splendid record in the ...upport of missions. Some time was given to the dis­ cussion of the Ministers’, Widows’ and Orphans’ Fund which is being placed upon an actuary basis by the General Assembly. The Fund is be­ ing re-organized and is to be known as the Pension Fund of the Presby­ terian church of Canada. The plan is to make the rates possible to all misisters of the church so that a minister who retires at) the close of 40 years of service will have a re­ tiring pension of $1000 per annum, and a minister’s widow $500 per an­ num. The discussion of the details of the plan was left over to a-later meeting. Authority was given Rev. A. Mac­ Farlane, interim moderator, to or­ ganize a Session in Brucefield con­ gregation. The Presbytery adjourned to meet in Clinton on the 3rd Tuesday of February at 10:30 a.m. --------------------- WHAT THE DR.

During this time it has thoroughly proven its merit in many thousands of Canadian homes. It has been tried, tested, perfected. To-day it is the standard in performance and quality by which all “electric” sets are judged. There are more Rogers sets sold than all other electric” radios put together.
