on Friday, January 7th at 8 o'clock
in Brenner's Hall. As this, is the first
meeting of the new year, all the
members are requested to be present
to hear the outline of business and
work for the ensuing year. ,
Our teacher, Mr. 5. Delgaty, ad-
dressed the large gathering at the
prayer meeting held at Mr. Colin
Campbell's n Thursday evening last
week. The address cusisted in a com-
parison among the three characters,
the neturaI man, the carnal ,christ-
ian and the spirit -filled christen, as
found in 1 Cor. 2-3 chap. Two other
addresses were delivered by Colin
Campbell and John Cowan. The
prayer meeting proved a blessing to
all present.
A splendid discussion an our rural
educatienal system is going on at
present in the pages of the Farxners'
Sun, the U.F.O. paper of Ontario.
Would it not be advisable for our
teachers, trustees and ratepayers df
Huron County to discus e the seine
question thru the colunms of the
Times and other local papers of OUT
County? Suppose we get to -work and
open up a discussion this winter.
Surely we are not satisfied with the
present system so well, as to remana
silent. We ought to be aggressive
in the school questions as well as in
the agricultural changes. Surely that
which has for its object the training
and development of the minds of our
rural boys and girls demands our
best minds and calls for our deep-
est interest.
