Davis; '2 heavy lumber wagons, a bus wag- on, three seed drills, two of which were new; 2 large flat race's, new. Massey -Harris plow, 2 -ton weigh scales• and smaller tools. The fire- men were soon on the scene and with a.orable wind succeeded in saving _�e flax mill which was a short distance to the north of the building burned. The flames could be seen for miles and attracted a large crowd of spectatdrs: It is estihiated that them were ;about 2000 bushels of flax seed; 20 tons of up- holstering p-holstering..tow -and 26 loads' of un- scutclzed flax straw, all of which was destroyed. The fire Was still burning late Monday evening altho- ugh water was played on the flames off •, and on all day. About three years ago the flax mill on the pro- perty then owned by the Ontario Flax Co. was destroyed.

REV. W. E. DONNELLY, B.A. Who concluded his pastorate of the James St. United church on Sun- day, and who left Wednesday to be- come - the pastor of Central United churbh, Stratford. PREACIIES FAREWELL eSERMON The large auditorium, of the James St. church was filled Sunday even- ing in to t• to lie farewell ge address of the Pastor, Rev. W. E. Donnelly, whiz) is leaving. James St. to become the pastor of Central United church Stratd:ord. Rev. Mr. Donnelly has been pastor of the church for"two years,and during that time has won an affectionate place, not only in the hearts of the congregation to which he has ministered but also of the whole community. From the very first Mr. Donnelly seemed like one who had grown up in our midst. He has a,wonderful faculty for re membering faces and names and he' was soon able to greet all of his. large flock by their first names. He entered into the joysand sorrows of the .)mimes of his people and espec- ially has he shown a deep sympathy andinterest inthesick. Scarcely a week of his pastoiat�e haspassedpassed- that hp has not been in London vis- iting someone .who was ill in • the hosepital. In the community life he has shown a deep interestand hag been particularly active among' the young people of his own congregation, hav- ing organized the Tuxis Boys and the Canadian Girls in Training. As ,.a lecturer Mr. Donnelly has been in great demand and has num- erous themes that bristle with bril- liant thoughts, humor, pathos and good common- sense that grips his hearers. It is on the piatform and in$e t pulpit that Mr. p p D..n_.n el1Y's eloquence shines forth. in beautiful excellence. He has a e onderfui gift of ' oratory and does not fail to impress his hearers. •' At the Sunday school Service a vote of appreciation was tendered to Mr. Donnelly and he was preseuted with a gold watch chain. On Mon- day evening the members of the Young People's League assembled ate the parsonage and presented the pastor with a gold headed umbrella, suitably engraved. - Mrs. Donnelly has been a teacher of the Young Ladies' Bible class and - interested in 'the various organiza- tions. - The family, consisting of Master Burton, Misses Vera and Nora have not 'only made many friends among the children but have won the hearts of the older people as well. On Sunday Mr. Donnelly reviewed some of the .work of his pastorate and paid a warni'"tribute to thework of the choir and the organist, Mr. W. R. Goulding. He and . his family had appreciated thee1 congenial• and wholesome life of -the community. He took for his text Gal. 4: 18: "It is good to be zealously affected al- ways en a good thing." He stressed throughout the value of continuous Christian zeal. Zeal to be valuable must be permanent. -It must not. be based on the shifting sands of fav-' orable circumstances, but like the' vestal fires of old, never suffered' to go out either -by day or night.. He spoke ot experiences peculiar to the ministry of the gospel: He was a man like .other men, subject tothe same temptations and facing the same problems, but the thing peen - liar to his office is the earnest soli- citude for the members of his flock. The church is a body of people each bearing the burdens and sharing the joys of others, and in all these inter- gretations of human interest and sympathy between the people who sit at the feet. of Jesus and the pas- tor who is privileged to lead them, none carried a greater concern :than. the pastor himself., But this inter- est must be more than human. Christ must ,hold the place of centraalie', and that ._ministry is a' failure that attracts loyalty to the singing, the music or the preadher and not de- votion to Christ. In conclusion Mr. Donnelly said that it the ministry to which you, have listened from this •pulpit has been in anyway helpful, I pray you to give God ,the glory. This bond that has 'closely ,xtnited us, is now of necessity loosened and from other lips you will listen; - to the tidings of eternal life. "'My one concern is that yen will 1 et your manner oft life be as: becosnieth the gospel of Christ, that whether .I come and see you, or else be absent, I may still Bean o.f1 r affairs, yo a.. that ye stand fast in 011e spirit, of one mind striving together for- the faith of the gospel" 11Ir: Fianna, of Sarnia, and.
