ing but spiritual things. Preach the
word in the spirit of the truth and
courage, .he counseled the ministers.
When we are called to the Ministry
we are called to speak a good word
from Christ, he declared. The nobler
a soul the greater compassion it has
and it is in this spirit that we ought
to preach the Word. We must never
lose patience nor for a moment for
get that the teaching ministry is the
kind of ministry we need now.
One of the important things in con
nection yith the ministry, he said, is
that we seek to preach and feel the.
old doctrine§ and preach the word
a crucified Saviour.
Key of Town Presented
Mayor John Hanna extended
of
a
hearty welcome to the visiting min
isters and Elders. This is something
for the town to be proud of, the hav
ing of a gathering of this kind here,
he said. He congratulated Rev. Mac-
Lean, the Session, and the ladies, for
their efforts in connection with the
Synod meetings. Closing his remarks
the Mayor presented the Moderator
with a large Key of the Town which
had been made by Councillor R. H.
Lloyd, a member of the Session of
the Church.
Greetings to the Synod for the
Young People’s Societies of the Pres
bytery were brought by Miss Eltmed
Williams, of Cranbrook, and from the
Ministerial Association of. Wingham
and district by Rev. E, O. Gallagher,
Rector of St. Paul’s Anglican Church.
The roll of the Synod was placed
on the table by Rev. A. L. Budge,
Clerk, and the minutes of the' last
Synod were adopted.
The retiring-moderator, Dr. Dun
can, speaking after the Synod was
constituted^ told that he was born on
Queen Elizabeth's grandfather’s es
tate. These people were wonderful
musicians and he said, one can easily
understand why Queen Elizabeth is
one of the most cultural and gracious
of women.
The new Moderator was clothed in
his robes of office and assumed the
chair, The report of the Business
Committee was given by Rev, John
Pollock, of Whitechurch, which
lined the work to be carried on
ing the meetings.

Gambling Attacked
The highlight of the Tuesday ses
sion of the Synod, over which the
new Moderator, Rev. C. H< MacDon
ald, presided, was the report on Ev
angelism and Church Life and Work,
given by Mr. John Elder, of Milver
ton. It brought forth a spirited dis
cussion. It recommended, 1. That the
Synod call upon the Church and Sun
day Schools to make an effort in the
cause of temperance; 2, To move ag
ainst lotteries and gambling devices,
3, Retain sanctity of the Sabbath by
giving whole-hearted co-operation to
the Lord’s Day Alliance, 4, To ap
proach the Canadian Broadcasting Co.
re eliminating Sunday commercial and
sport programs and sales talks. The
eliminating of jazz and putting great
er emphasis on religious services, 5,
Closer relationship between Sabbath
School and 'Church, and co-operajion
of congregations with World’s Day
of Prayer, also more emphasis on Ev*
angelization.
This report was adopted in full ex
cept the part which referred to broad
casting which was sent back to be
rewritten. •
Asked What About Stock Markets
Considerable discussion took place
regarding gambling and Rev. D. J.
Lanp asked “What about the stock
market?” He said, if gambling was
wrong in one case it is wrong in all.
Dr. Wardlaw Taylor, D.D., of God
erich said the stock market carried
on a legitimate business and money
lost that way is not gambling but just
lost,
The new Ministers entering the Sy
nod were introduced by Rev. J, T.
Strachan, of Owen Sound, and the
new Elders by A. Mundell, of Strat
ford.
Birth Control Parent of Divorce
Rev, S. Banks Nelson, Hamilton,
reporting on work in the cities, de
plored, the slackening of .Sunday ob
servance. The moral tone is low and
families were small. The foreigners
are out-numbering us, he said, Birth
control he classed as the parent of di
vorce, Petty gambling he denounced
as the parent of other gambling. The
New Jerusalem won’t come, he de
clared, until religion has created a
new economic basis for mankind.
Speaking of the problems of the
country Church, Rev. W- A. Young
of Hensall said one of the
things about qur church is the
ness and staunchness of the
members. The rural districts
given our country its great leaders
and the rural churches have given the
church its greatest preachers,. The
body of the rural church has been
weakened but it has retained her soul,
he emphasized.
The discussion of the reports was
led by Mr. John Thompson, of Owen
Sound. He said our churches are ov
er organized which keeps our child
ren at church so much that we have
no home life. Let us be sponsors for
young poeple and bring them into the
church. Mr. James Scott, Cromarty,
spoke on the problems of the country
church.
Rev. George Wishart, Hamilton, in
reporting for the Historical commit
tee, recommended ministers to keep
an accurate record of all events.
Liquor Consumption Increased
At the afternoon session Rev. Dr.
A. J." Irwin, speaking for the Temp
erance Federation, said the increased
consumption of all liquors was a det
riment to national life. He deplored'
the increased drinking by women and
said it threatens the very foundation
of our life. Illigitimacy has increased
due to the prevalence of drinking
among women, He blamed much of
the crime and killings on the high
ways to the use of liquor. 30% of the
highway accidents have liquor inter
mingled with them and 90% of the
reckless drivers have had liquor. Li
quor in the home is a serious prob
lem. The church must see that the
home is lifted up. We have been, ask
ing for repeal of the beer laws and
we appeal educationally for progres
sive restriction and to form public
opinion to deal with it effectively in
the days that are to come, he assert
ed. «
The Moderator, with Dr. West in
the chair, gave the report on Relig
ious Education. The number of grad
uates from colleges is inadequate to
the needs of the church. One of the
great tasks of our church is holding
the Call of God before otir young men
to enter the ministry. Try to "inter
est men of wealth to endow a chair,
he said. Canadians are not supplying
their own pulpits. There is some
thing the matter with the church
when its pulpit does not attract its
own men.
The report on the Pensions Board
was given by Rev, Moore. Dr. Mc-
Kerrol, in seconding the report urg
ed all ministers to enter the pension
plan and have a share in the benefit
the Church is making for them.
Following this session the members
visited the grave of Dr. Caroline Mac
Donald, who labored so faithfully in
Japan and placed a wreath on her
grave, They also were shown
through the Western Foundry, The
Gurney Glove Works, Lloyd’s Fac
tory, and Fry & Blackhall’s Furniture
Factory.
Needs of the Church
At the evening session Tuesday
Rev. J. ,M. Macgillivary gave an in
troductory message from the Board
of Missions, He based his remarks
on the “Needs of the Church.” First
we need vision, with no vision a na
tion will perish, So will the church,
Secondly there is the need of wise,
strong, enthusiastic leadership in all
departments especially in missions# It
is necessary, he said, to personalize
and particularize our budget. Lastly
we need to hear again the( command of
the Great Master “Go ye into all the
world and preach the Gospel to every
creature.” He suggested a secretary
for Home Missions and Foreign Mis
sions.
Speaking for the General Interests
Committee, Rev, E. G, McCuIIagh, of
Brantford, said last year was the first
in five years that there has been an
increase in givings, Per capita Set is
$1.59 per person and the Synod only
raised 66% of its allocation.
Has Faith in Youth
That Rev. Hugh Munroe, D.D., of
New Glasgow, Moderator of the Gen
eral Assembly, has faith’in the youth
of the church was evidenced from his
remarks on “Our Church as seen by
the Moderator.” He- told of a meet
ing of the Ontario Y. P. Societies in
Ottawa and how he was impressed by
the conduct of these youths. His ex
perience across Canada from' coast to
coast was the same. Youth taking
their place in the life of the church.
They are church-minded, he said, and
my prayer is that God will give wis
dom and strength to guide this young
life.
Over 40 per cent., of ministers serve
augmented congregations, he said.
Ministry is one of the outstanding
problems and he pleaded, with the
ministers to love and help their breth
ren. He told of the , great work nec
essary in the north for Home Miss
ions. We must have this section in
our thoughts as well as all parts of
the country. We must serve together
and love to the end, he said.
That 1937 was a good year in many
ways, good in that it was better than
other years, but not good in the sense
that we can rest on our oars, was the
opening words of the address of Rev.
Wm, Barclay, of Hamilton, Budget
and Stewardship convener of the Gen
eral Asembly. Since 1925, $158,000
of the Mission Reserves were spent
to tide over the lean years but is still
as great as before. The accumulated
deficit, he said, was $201,000. A plan
is being formed to wipe this deficit
out if the General Assembly approves..
It can be done, he said, if the people
of the Church set their hearts to it.
The Synod was serenaded by the
Lucknow Pipe Band in front of the
Church prior to assembling.
Choir sang “Rejoice for the Lord
Here."
