INITIAL SEleMONS,-Rev. J. W.
Baird, B, A., .who, with his family, ar-
rived here from Mitchell last week,
t,reached his initial :sermons as pas-
tor of James Street Methodist Church
an. Sunday last and made a very fav-
orable impression,. He is a very clear
forceful and impressive speaker, with
a pleasing voice and has a simple and
easy style of delivery, while his ser,
mons shaky careful study and prepar-
ati ne Hie evening text was from
St. Matthew 18-11, "For the son of
man is come ,to seek for that which
was ,cost," and his subject was °"Mis-.
conceptions of Salvation", He spoke
of of the Pagan conception of God as
at an angry diety, as. a God of wrath,
y. a God of justice only, This coil -
by ception, hi.# said, is not altogether
lost non but it is a slander upon
the truth; as God is a father, full of
pity tenderness and love, a good
shepherd seeking his wandering ones,
Another misconception is that there
is no need of personal salvation.
There are those who believe God is
a God of love, Surd will not see us
lost The test of this belief is whet-
her it makes you a better man on
earth, satisfies your conscience, 9r
helps in the dying hour. Another
misconception is based upon the claim
of "morality". Give this belief the
same tests and it will not sat isfy.
Let us not, he said, be satisfied with
any conception other than that giv-
en by Christ himself, which trans-
forms charater for the present and
provides a glorious hope for the
future.

Two rinks of Exeter bowlers at-
tended the Dominion Day Tournament
an the Elmwood greens in Loddon
on. Saturday. Each rink played five
games. \'V"" D. Clarke, J. A. Stewart,
We W. Tarnaa mid R.. G. .Seldon
formed one rink, winning three and
losing two games. Wallace Tuke, F.
W. Gladman, Major W. J. Heaman
and R. N. Creech formed the other
rink and won four and lost one. game.
The latter rink 'qualified for the play
off in the finals, except for the fact
that their to tat plus score was not
as high as three other winners of four
games out of five. Mrs, Seldon and
family Mrs. Gladman and family, Mrs,

ORGANIZATION MEETING.—A
meeting of the South Huron Board of
Agriculture was held in Exeter on
June 22. ''While the attendance was
not as large as expected for such to
important :ant ca '
p use, yet the different

ed. The following officers were eI-
ected:—President, Geo. Penhale; Vice
President, Fred. Ellerington; Sec'v-
Treas., A. H. Daupe; Executive, H.
H. Neeb, Jas. Keys, Alex. Buchanan,
D. A. Lindsay.
CHURCH SHED BURNED. --The
cell of fire, and the ringing of the
town hell about two o'clock a. tn.,
Sunday, aroused the town and it was
soon found that the old frame part
of the Main street Church shed was
on fire. The firemen were soon .on
the scene and two streams of water
were successful in confining the flam-
es to the one building, no damage, be-
ing done to the other she,d, or sur-
rounding buildings. The cause of the
fire is not definitely known, but the
fire chief's report will 'say that the
apparent cause was the hydro wiring.
Loss four or Live hundred dollars. T.
G. Creech, one of the firemen, bad a
narrow escape awhile fighting the flam-
es, the hydra wire coming in contact
with his leg and throwing him to
the ground, giving him severe shocks
until the wire was removed by amen
wearing rubber boots. The lesson in
this is that the Council should immed-
lately procure rubber. boots and rub -
her gloves for each fireman,.

HICKS' FORECASTS.—By the 7th
and 8th, the temipeaatiire will be 'ris-
ing in western extremes, falling bar-
ometer 'will attend high temperature,
clouds will form, and these conditions
will begin to moveeastward across
the country. These storms will be
preceded by a phenomenally cold
wave all across the country, giving
rise, in a great many ,localities, to
very violent and 'dangerous summer
gusts. There is promise of rains along
with these storms but not in propor-
tion' generally to the amount of threat-
ening and bluster. There. will be local
downpours, Mere and there, as the.
storm centers move ieastwardly across
the 'country amounting to cloud-
bursts and local floods; but an over-
abundance of diffused ,rains is not to
he expected: Rising barometer, the
shifting of winds to westerly, and
change to cooler, fair weather, will I
move in from the west for several
days behind 'these storms.
