HOME MISSIONS
GREAT NEED
Last Sunday, the first after Trinity,
Rev. E. O. Gallagher spoke on the
practical application of the revela
tion received from Advent to Whit
suntide. Over a hundred years ago
the people of England determined that
those who come to Canada should not
forget God. It is now Otir part to see
that our brethern in the West have
the same chance we had. Our Miss
ionary work which thirty years ago
seemed the most temporary, and by
far the best financial investment, has
turned out to be the largest, the most
serious, and the most permanent of
our problems. We have to-day, seen
the danger of bringing men to our
great cities where they lose their in
dividuality, and that pioneering spirit
which has been the genius of our race.
Canada’s pillar of fire is shining in
the North.
AYTON ON TOP
BY 5-2 SCORE
The fine pitching of Doersam of
Ayton cost the local Central League
Club a game here on Tuesday after
noon. The local gang only collected
two hits off his offerings and Thorpe
got both of these. Bill Groves for
the locals pitched a nice* game. Three
successive hits in the second netted
Ayton two runs.-In the eighth, four
hits and an error brought in two
more runs. Fraser pitched the ninth.
A walk and an error gave the opposi
tion a run. Wingham got their two in
the seventh an error and two walks
doing the trick.
. The game was snappy being played
in one and a half hours. The local
club look better every time out and
should be in there when the play-offs
roll around.
