CHURCH NOTES.
Rev. A. J. Langford, of the Methodist
church, Kincardine, has accepted a call
from the congregation of Mitchell
church and at a meeting of the quarter-
ly official board last Monday evening it
was unamiously decided to release Mr.
Langford at the end of the conference
year.
The 32nd annual session of the Meth-
odist Conference will open at St.
Mary's on Thursday, June 3rd.
Regular services will be held in the
Methodist Church next Lord's Day.
Mr. J. G. Irwin, of Clinton, will
occupy the pulpit both morning
and evening. Mr. Irwin is a very in-
teresting and captivating speaker. A
cordial welcome extended to all.
CHURCH OF ST. PAUL THE APOSTLE.
The adjourned Vestry meeting of St.
Paul's Church was held on Monday
evening last, when the reports of the
various organizations were presented.
The auditor's report was quite satis-
factory in the face of the financial
stress of the past year. However it
was found that some effort was required
ob the part of the members of the
Finance Committee that the congre-
gation might realize the necessity of
increasing the income of the Church,
and with this increase the prospects
were bright for the coming year. The
Sunday School report showed the school
to be in fine condition. The Ladies'
Guild, also, had a substantial balance
on hand. Two new sidesmen were
added to the previous list. Mr. W. H.
Willis was re -appointed organist and
choirmaster, and Mr. N. T. Sinclair
was again appointed vestry clerk.
Wednesday evening service at 7.30.
