Millyard, of Askin St. Meth- odist church, London 'from I Peter 3: 15` on "The Reason for your Hope." He pointed out that real religion is not holding a creed, nor reciting a ritual, nor the perfor- mance of deeds- of philanthrophy' and benevolence, though these are all expressions of religion, but con- sists of a vital experience of the heart always reasonable bitt often not understood. In closing he ur- ged his hearers to never be satis fied until they could offer the rea- son for their hope in "meekness and fear. At each of these services the choir rendered special music and was`ably assisted by Messrs. Dr. W. A. McDowell, baritone, and Geo. Cox, tenor, of Atwood, whose duetts were most effectively rendered '. to'. the -great delight of all.
