C. H. SANDERS, EDITOR

There is talk that incorporation for
this village is going to fall through.—
Mr.111, Y. Meenans of the Huron Expos
itor, was in the village on Monday.—
Dr, Ferguson has the brick work of his
new dwellieg, completed, and the car
penters are putting on the roof.—The
Editor of this paper passed through this
suburb, if we mistake not, ou his bike
on Monday. Although we hailed him
in stentorian tones yet we could not
"catch" his ear. Is the editor troubled
with deafness or is he so absorbed in
matters, matrimonial or otherwise, that
he becomes entirely oblivious to his
surroundings?— What is known in the
Presbyterian church as "Children's
Day" was observed iu Carmel churce
on Sabbath morning last. In addition
to special music appropriate to the oc-
casion, there was a special sermon to
the children by the pastor. He illus
Grated his subject which was "Work'
and gave the children a valuable ob-
joot lesson by means of four different
Weeks and which he used to illustrate
different kinds of professing Christians.
The first clock was in perfect order ex-
cept that, it had no bands or dial. It
tiokod away with itself but did not
point out the time of day, the very
thing the maker had in view and
therefore it was useless. This clink
illustrates a class of professing Chris-
tians who live professedly a good life
but who make no confession to their
fellows. They have no defieite aim,
no settled purpose in life. They do
not point the way to any one, they do
not raise any one up. Like the clock
without a dial they are ticking away
within their own narrow shell and like
it, accomplishing nothing. They are
useless Christians. The second clock
was seemingly perfect to outward. ap-
pearance, but it would not go, and ex-
amtuation proved that it had no works,
no motive power. It professed to indi-
cate the time as it had hands and dial,
but it had im inahnepring or pendulum
and there its appearance was entirely
hypocritical. This clock illustrated a
worse class of professing Christians
than the former, namely, those who put
on religion as a mask in order to grati-
fy -some selfish desire, or gain some
coveted advantage. Like the clock they
point to something but their hands in
dieate no progress. They have no
heart and, no life—uothing but a face
and even that is not much to look at,
and he, the speaker, never knew a hy-
pocrite who was worth looking at.
They are not serving God or fulfilling
the purpose for which they were creat
ed, they are serving thebaselves. They
are mere professors only, The third
clock was perfect in all the essential
details and it only needed to be wound
and started to beat the time correctly
and even to challenge the sun himself
for his unsteady gait. It fulfilled per-
fectly the purpose its maker bad in
view, namely, to indieate the time of
day. This clock represented the typi-
cal christian who does his work honest-
ly, faithfully and well and thus fulfils
the purpose of his Creator, namely "to
gloryify God and to enjoy Him forever,"
The fourth clock was entirely different
from the others. Like the third it was
perfect in all the essential details but
in addition it had a beautiful mechan-
ism for striking the hours. Precisely
at the hour a small door opened in the
upper part of the clock and as the strik.
ing continued a bird began to warbble
in re soft vieledious voice. This clock
represented those who not only do their
work faithfully but do it with life, en-
thusiasm and joy. They are the ideal
Christians. In concluding his remarks
the speaker also illustrated the Chris-
tian life by the different parts of a clock
such as the spring for prime mover, the
pendulum for regulator, the verge for
controller, etc. Mr, Henderson desery
es praise for his efforts to instruct and
entortaiul the children.—The Christian
Endeaver society of Carmel church had
a good _meeting on Sunday evening
last. ,The meeting was led by Miss
Aggie Hoggarth who read an article
on the subject. The subject was fur-
ther discussed by Mrs. McCloy, James
Wood, Dr. Ferguson and others. Miss
Aggie Carr and Miss Esther Moore also
sang in pleasing style a beautiful duet.
We are under the weather with a cold,
the result, as we suppose, of meeting
one doer would-be aristocratic females
on Broadway a couple of evenings ago.
We noticed that the adyancing figure
was a shade blue about the gills and
somewhat fidgety intt' t ovements
ite?m
il
and fearing that pomiff elnusually
chilly was coming, tefine6tently but-
toned our coat tighO'erd swerved to
the right as far is 'we 'd,ould without
trespassing upon prtente property. No-
ticing in passing the . figure that the
face seemed familiar stud greeted it
with a smile and a word expressive of
old time cordial relations, but it simply
passed on like a statute on stilts and
every feature and linatnent of whose
physiognomy was expressive of haugh
ty disdain and bottled, insolence and
uontempt. We are not prepared for such
extreme frigidity Mr, Editor and if this
female ever intends to meet us again
on our central Boulevard we hope she
will let us know in advance so that we
may insulate ourselyes with extra,
clothing from such extreme cold.
