THE FORWAKI) MOVEMENT.
Special Meeting of the Presbytery of
Huron at Cbaton oo Wednesday.
A special meeting of the fresh tory of
Huron was held at Clinton on Wednes-
day, to confer with a deputation from
the Assembly's committee on the Forward
Movement consisting of Rev. Dr. Neel,
Dr. R. P. McKay and Prof. Kilpatrick,
all of Toronto.
Dr. Aitken. of Kippen, moderator of
Presbytery. presided.' Notwithstanding
the prevalence of the epidemic. the at-
tendance was quite representative. and
many were present from nearly alt the
congregratwns of the. Presbytery, besides
the regular members of Presbytery.
At the morning session Dr. Neil rapid-
ly outlined the home mission work of the
church. making special mention of the
problems in Quebec and because of the
large foreign population of the West.
In a brie( address Dr. R. P. McKay
made a summary of the work entrusted
to the church in the foreign field: among
fifteen millions of people in nine targe
sections of the world's population, and
pointed out not only the immediate re-
quirements but the estimated needs for
the next five years in staff and equipment
if the work is to be efficie fitly carried on.
At the afternoon session Prof. Kilpat-
rick spoke on the need of men for 'the
ministry'. The population has been in-
creasing, the church has been expanding,
and yet the supply of men has been de-
creasing, until the probable number of
graduates in the theological colleges for
1918 will probably not be more than
twenty-five. He felt that the only sure
way to keep up thasupply was by keep-
ing high the spiritual life of the church.
Dr: McKay spoke in the interests of
the aged and infirm ministers and of the
ministers' widows and orphans. Valu-
able suggestions were made by Mesons.
$sunders and Gladman.
Jn the evening Dr. Neil contributed an
address on stewardship. Dr. Kilpatrick
againspoke of the work of the ministry,
puttingthe service therein in the highest
rank. t. McKay spoke the closing
words o the conference, and laid em-
phas.s on the necessity of earnest prayer
by all the hers of the church.
The follows resolutions were heartily
agreed to,by t Presbytery: The Pres-
bytery heartily concurs in the Forward
Movement. approves of its great pur-
pose. and promises tern earnest and Loyal
support. The Presbytery decides to ap-
point a committee with, instructions to
use all practicable means fpr. the further-

William Brodhagen. of the township of
Logan. pleaded guilty to three charges of
stealing cattle. In one case he stole four
head of cattle from a farmer, drove them
nine miles to his own place. and sold them
to a drover. using the money as part
payment on an automobile. It was six
weeks before the owner found out what
had happened to his cattle and recovered
them. Two head of cattle belonging to
anqther farmer were taken at the same
I time and the•third charge dated back to
December. 1911i. Mr. J. M. Best, of Sea -

THE LATE MRS. DEAN.—The remains
