So say unthinking, persons when meted to give, and give liberally, to the Comedian Patriotic Fund, Tao answer should coine straight and quickly:—" Why shoulda't women who are giving their husbands to the country be as well off, or better MT? Tbey are struggling along, probably with large families of ehildren, and anxiety about the fate of their lege bands gnawing at their hearts every hour of tbe illy, Any =meet, may come the tidiuge that the bread•winner is gone forever, Are we to reward these women with the smallest pit tance that will keep body and soul to- gethei ?"

Under the pastoral leadership of Rev, Mr, McCulloch. backed up hear- tily by the cordat, eupport of a large and iufteential membership, the out- look is promising. To the young people will come office and honors, privilege and responsibility but if they measure up in fidelity and zeal to the record of their predecessors in the good work both ill pulpit and pow, Knox church should have a large share in the betterment of the social, moral and spirituel life of the community. The pastor and congregation are to be congratulated on this jubilee. Rev, Dr, Dey and Rev. Mr. McRae set up lofty stauclards aud striving after their attainment cannot fail to secure an uplift. Rev.

McInnes and family, Reba neckie, Donald McNeil and fam- ily aua othere, most of whom have long since passed away. After the resignation of Rev. Mr. Ferguson un- til the time of Rev. D. B. McRae's induction in 1870, the pulpit was filled by students and probationers. Of those the following nausea might be mentioned, Messrs. Gallaher, Dey, Thomson and Fowlie.
