A mass meeting of the Sunda

which the Robert Raikes diploma
and seals were given to those wh

for the year. Over fifty seals and d
plomas were given Out. Mr. Millyar
gave an appropriate address for th
occasion.
. In the evening Mr. Millyard too
for his text, Luke 6: 13. "And whe
it was day he called unto him in
disciples, and of them ,he chose 1
whom he had named apostles." Th
speaker said that Jesus, had span
the previous night in prayer. 'E'vi
dently he considered the choosing o
the twelve men who were to be call
ed aPostles exceedingly important
The choosing of them was a momen
tuous event. Jesus steed at the crisi,
of his career when he set apart the
apostles. He wanted them partly ft)/
companionship. ,He longed for corn
pauionship and sympathy and he
did not cheeses\ Carelessly. The choos
lug of companions: especially the
marriage relationship is entered into
at times without the necessary con-
sideration. But the apostles were not
chosen for companionehip alone but
to assist in the work and for the fu-
ture. propogation of Christianity.
Many, men to perpetuate their ideas
write 'a "hooka but Jesus left behind
not a single ,.vOitten Word, but a
living agency to Cafry the: message,
on and on. Whether Chistianity
should get rightly started on its
mission of humanity rested largely
on the men he chose. Thus the all
night prayer. Men of humble birth
and low estate were chosen. Tae
speaker thought that if Jesus had.
had at his disposal men of wealth
and 'education he might have chosen
them. History has proven that men
who have risen to -the high places
have been mostly of lowly birth.
What the apostles lacked in Ay:lordly
qualities they•made up in other qual-
ities. Among them was a remarkable
variety of types that would touch
all classes of people. Psychology
claims the race is made up of four
types: the phlegmatic, the choleric,
the melancholy, and the sanguine.
The phlegmatic is slow and 'measur-
ed, thinks twice before he speaks is
backward, reticent and retired. Phil-
ip and Andrew were of this type.
When a certain Greek came to see
Jesus they consulted and debated
the question. There is a place for
the person of phlegmatic temper-
ament in the church of Jesus Christ.,
The choleric is 'a man of tempera-
ment and temper. He chews with his
wife, with himself, with those with
whom he works and with those in
the church. James and John, the
sons of thunder, were•of this type.
They were touchy and explosive,
Sohn was'notalways' the epOstle of
love. Jesus has room for the people
of quick temper and sharp tongues.
Then there is the melancholy map, I
the man who looks at the dark sidefl
an expert in the art of worryaThom-
as was of this type. Thomas doubted
until he felt the wound prints for
himself. So there is a, place- for the.
melancholy type in the keeping, sav-
ing, sanctifying power of Jesus. The
last is the sanguine, the man who
sees things, who dreams dreams and
sees visions; you can't keep him
down. His is the most delightful dis-
position of the four. Sometimes the
dash and buoyancy has too „ much
conceit or two much effervescence
and there is something lacking of
stability. Peter, who stumbled ,and
fell, was of this type. Peter wept.
tears of bitterness because he had
forsaken his Master. Jesus throws
open a doort,efeltindness and friend-
ship to the sanguine temperament.
In the companionship of Christ
there is roam for all. "aVhosoever
will let him take the water of life
freely, all who come unto me I will
in no wise cast out." '.

preachers were being promised from

Metaods of Ireeping, Cow Records.
Four things are necessary for
keeping cow records: a
1. A monthly milk sheet, ruled so
that there shall be a column for re-
cording the weight of the morning
and evening milking of each cow for
each day of the mofith, though some
use 'a sheet rated for three days only,
and estimate the weight of milk giv-
en for the month from these three
days, which may be consecutive or
on the 1st, 10th and 20th of the
month, snaking ten day periods
between.
2. A milk scale, preferably one
having a dial -face and two hands,
one of which shows the net weight
of milk in the pail, when properly
set. This scale 'costs about five
dollar.
3. A four to eight -bottle Babcock
test, where it is desired to know
what each cow'Smilk tests in fit.
This will cost from eight to twelve,
dellars complete,
4. The fourth and most important
