OVER 870o POR MISSIONS.\,
Concluding Services in Special Effort of
North Street Methodist Church.
The wissiunary campaign of North
street Methodist church, which began
with the laymen's banquet on the 19th
of February, was concluded. so fur as
the public seryices are concerned, on
Sunday lama. when Rev. James Allen,
of Toronto, general secretary of home
mission' of the Methodist church, oc-
cupied the pulpit. As a result of tbie
campaign the Missionary- contribu-
tions of North street church will be in-
creaser( from • little over $41M1 last
year to $7011 or more this year. The
returns are nut yet complete, but the
tot asitrer of. the fund has about $7110
in sight, and expects more. This is a
most creditable achievement," and
having set a high mark before it
rthetreet church will uodrntAtedir
1n the years to come continue to tec
copy ern advanced position in the for-
ward movement for missions.
On Sunday hist the preacher of the
day was assisted by the pastor, Rev.
Dr. -Dougall, in the conduct of the ser-
vices.
Mr. Allen's morning I, i -won desk
with the relation of hone- missions to
foreign missions. He pointed out
that the greater part (f the money
now raised by the Met' .est church
in Canada comes from parts of the
country which within the memory of
wen still living we domestic mission
Heide: and in order to raise the greater
sural for foreign merlons which will
suable Canada to do her- share in the
evangelization of the world the ex
tenaicn ot the home field is necessary.
The speaker illustrated tri. statement
by reading from old missionaryre-
ports from such places as Barrie,
Owen Sound. Port Hope, Sarnia, etc.;
when these places were mission fielde
and in church matters, as in other
things, were in a very primitive con-
dition. He read the report of one of
the pioneer preachers under y whose
direction four churches had' Leen
erected each in one day. For the
record in building we phould have to
go back to our fathers of the early
days of settlement in Ontario. Our
forefathers in Upper Canada huilded
letter than they knew. They did not
think so much as we do of evangel-
izing (bit iiorld, but they wanted to
nave the men they knew, the
men about them. They did not
think so much of empire -building as
wr do, hut they )rade nor world-
wide aspirations possible. In West-
ern (Canada there were the poseihit-
ities of III/thy Ontario*, and it was the
duly of the Methodist church within
its sphere to save Canada, .o that
Canada might save mankind. The
immigrants coiling in such numbers
to this country should he dealt with
now, or they would get out of our
control. The work of those now in
the field was efficient, but it was not
sufficient, and runre aid must he
forthcoming. While there w e r e•
thousands of laymen who could not
go to the mission fields, the appeal
was to them to study the conditions of
the people about them, in the towns
and the cities, and to help save then)
to give personal service when possible.
or if not give the money, hilt both
were required. The speaker believed
that the laymen, the 'nen who con-
trolled the-huaineas and the money of
theday, if aroused would not be satis-
fied with merely placing their money
at the service of the church hut
would use their ability in organization
in meeting the requirements of this
personal work and in reaching the
foreigners who were c ' g to our
shores and bringing them within the
influence rf the church.
At the evening service Mr. Allen
presented the same subject in a
different way. Dwelling upon the
great development of the British Em-
pire, until it now includes a papula
tion of tour hundred millions, he
pi)inted out that of then(- only flfty
millions are of the governing rice,
and it wee imperative that the :we)
minions ahould b. raised up or they
would drag the fifty rnitllons down to
their own level of nunhood. What
made a nation great was not bigness.
not it. material wealth nor the nom -
hers of its populist ion, but the charity
terof its people. We were becoming
in these day -m a people of matter -
worker, and mammon -worshipper.,
and it find been said that that nation
was surely tending to destruction that
made money the chief object of its
ambition.. There was a grave danger
here, and thie laymen's missionary
movement offered a more worthy ob-
ject and a remedy for the ills of
material .elflshne... No man enuld
diasociate himself from the Beat of
humankind, any more than rnnld nne
