land Pettit, of Toronto, the President
of the Baptist Convention of Ontario
and Quebec, who spoke in his own
simple and forceful way on the need
of men in the work of the Church,
and the building of the Kingdom of
God. "Jesus" he said, "When He
wanted to turn the world upside down
I chose twelve men, not twelve women
as most often is the custom in the
modern church. So as of old, Jesus
i.
wants above all else, men for. his
program in the Church and the
I World." He pointed out everywhere
the need for Christ, and challenged
the men to the new and greatest joy.
that of _ leading others - into the ful
ness of life in Jesus Christ.

with a cornet solo, that was much
appreciated.

was Dr. Vincent, of Beverly St, Bap-
tist Church, Toronto. He, is an able
and challenging manner, urged 'the
men to re -kindle the spiritual fires
within, so_ that they might go fort
to win risen into the great fellowship
and life of Jesus, the Christ; and to
lift up thus, individually, their re-
spective communities into the stand-
ard of life as laid down by the Mast-
er. He pleaded especially for action.
The chairman challenged the men
not to allow their enthusiasm of the
moment to cool, but to "Rise up and
be done with lesser thjngs,"He
pleaded for definite actjon b1i' the
men; which was followed by the var-
ious churches appointing men of
their own number with the special
duty of seeing to it that something
was done.
The Goderich men elected Messrs.
Gordon Lamb, Fred Beevers and H.
Griff, to see that the men of the
Goderich Church went' farth toward
Christ's objective for them.
Rev. Mr. McAteer of Kincardine
moved a hearty vote of thanks to the
speakers and voiced the opinion that
much good. had • been accomplished,
and would be in the days to come.
This was -also expressed by Rev. Mr.
,Sherman of Clinton, and • Mr. H.
Griff of Goderich.
