The Exeter Times-Advocate, 1933-11-02, Page 2THURSDAY, NOVEMBER a, 1038 THE EXETER TIMES-ADVQCATE upon after­ duet, The annpal convention of the R, E, Association of Stephen, Exeter and Usborne was held in the United Church, Crediton on Friday, October 27th. The afternoon session opened promptly at 2.30 with Rev. J. John­ ston, pastor of the Convention church as the leader of the worship. • Following this the president Mr. Arthur Amy, Crediton, took charge Of the meeting, and spoke to the delegates for ’a few moments on the importance of the work in which in­ terest they had gathered. He said that next to the ministry, the Sun­ day School worker faced the greatest task of the kingdom, and anyone who lightly and without sufficient reason threw aside the chance to thus serve, was passing up a priceless op­ portunity. The minutes and Secretary’s Re­ port was read and adopted. Tl|e Rev. J. R. Peters, of Elim- ville, was the first speaker of the af­ ternoon, with his subject “The Task As I See It. The ‘task’ of course, referred to the task of the Sunday School and Mr. Peters in a clear and forcible way stressed the impo^ijt- ance of the work and especially the responsibility of the teachers of the Sunday School classes. One of the most striking of his statements was made in connection with the so-call­ ed Youth Problem—young people, drifting away from the church, and seemingly only interested in ques­ tionable amusements, drinking, smoking, etc. -.He said that if the older generation had not helped to place these things in the hands or the youth today, the problem would not be confronting the church, In such a formidable way. In short a great part of the task of the Sunday School will be to free young people from the heavy hand of habit and practice which has been laid their shoulders. A pleasant break, in the noon’s business was a vocal very ably rendered by Misses Nola Faist and Ella Morlock, members of the Evangelical Church, Crediton. The second speaker of the after­ noon was the Rev R. N Stewart, of Centralia, a new comer in our midst, who more than proved his ability be­ fore the session was over. His sub­ ject linked nicely with that of Mr. Peters’ being “The Relationship of the Sunday School to the church.” Unfortunately many people think of these organizations as being separate bodies, while in reality they are one, the church being the congregation at worship and the .Sunday School be­ ing the congregation at study. The S. S. must depend on the church for its plant and equipment, its body of officers and teachers, and for depart­ mental leadership. The church uses the S. S. as its recruiting ground, where otherwise it would be impos­ sible. There is a great gap between a knowledge of the Scriptures and a practice of them, and through the !S. S. we have the opportunity for dis­ cussions which help to apply these truths to everyday life. And, of course, their task as a whole is main­ ly evangelistic, and only through combined efforts can the most sat­ isfactory results be obtained. The remainder of the afternoon z session was taken up by a Round Table Conference, also led by Rev. Stewart and the reports of the De­ partment Supts. The convention was particularly fortunate in securing the services of S. R. Johnson, of Lircan, as supper hour speaker, and also a participant in the evening service. This session was opened with a song service .led by Rev. A. E. Elliott and his Main Street, Exeter, choir, and indeed the whole evening service was made more interesting and pleasant by the presence of this group of singers who led the general song service as well as providing several special select­ ions. The service was conducted by Rev. M. A. Hunt, pastor of Trivitt Mem- oiral Church, Exeter. " A rather lengthy discussion was necessary to decide how to finance the coming Teacher Training Course, and it was decided that each school be assessed at the rate of one cent per enrolled member, the money to be .paid to the secretary immediately. At this junc­ ture resolutions of thanks, to the con­ vention church, Women’s Associa­ tions, officers of convention associa­ tion, etc. were brought in and adopt­ ed, also resolutions protesting against increasing liberties of the Pimples Not Dangerous But Very Embarrassing For the past 55 years manufactured only by THE T. MILBURN CO., Limited Toronto, Ont. Liquor Control Act. An invitation from the Centralia United Church to hold their 1934 convention there, was extended and gratefully accepted. Greenway also extended an invitation and we shall hope that we shall be able to avail ourselves of this opportunity at some later date. Rev. Johnston’s address at the ev­ ening session was “A Live Wire Teacher’. The analogy was partic­ ularly good since, as Mr. Johnson pointed out a live wire to be effective must be connected with the great power house, as well as the object to which the power is to be transmitt­ ed, so the S'. S. teacher must be a conductor, being joined to the Great Power House of God on one hand and with the personality of the pu­ pil on the other. Both Rev. Johnston’s addresses— his subject during the supper hour being “The Essentials In Organiza­ tion" sparkled with wit as well as real spiritual truths, and the appre­ ciation of the delegates and friends was manifested by their undivided attention. As a fitting climax to one of our best conventions the Elimville Young People, under the direction of their pastor Rev. J. R. Peters, gave an ex­ cellent rendition of the Religious Drama, “Barabas.” It was well re­ ceived and the players are to be con­ gratulated on the sincere and rever­ ent manner in which the drama was presented. The officers for the coming year were installed into their new offices with impressive service conducted by Mr. Hubert Jones of Exeter. The of­ ficers are as follows: President, Mr. Arthur'Amy, Crediton; Vice-Pres, Cecil iSkinner, Centralia; Sec’y.Treas. Ruby Finkbeiner, Crediton; ISupt. of ■Children’s Div., L. Brown Parkhill; Supt.

Pimples are caused by the blood being in an impure condition, but there is a simple Way to get rid of them by giving the blood a thorough cleansing by the use of Burdock Blood Bitters. Mr. Wm. Fraser, Thorburn, N.S., writes:—‘ ‘I was greatly troubled with pimples on my face. I used ointments and salves, but they did no good. I took one bottle of Burdock Blood Bitters and the result was so satisfactory I can recommend B. B.

CONDENSED MILK A GREAT DELICACY In British Malaya sweetened con­ densed milk is looked upon as a great delicacy by the natives and Chinese and they like drinking it from the can. In good times con­ siderable quantities are consumed in this way, states the Industrial De­ partment of the Canadian National Railways. During 1931, Canada supplied 9.170 cases out of a total of 910,717. • ■ _ At its offices throughout Canada the Bank of Montreal has over one million deposit accounts. The depositors, Canadian individuals and Canadian business firms, represent every class of the community in city and country alike—from persons of large means to children starting their life’s savings, from industrial corporations of international scope to farmers and small „ tradesmen. Good faith, good will and good banking practice on the part of those directing the Bank grow naturally out of the sense of responsibility imposed by this ex­ pression of nation-wide confidence.
