Proceeds to be used for school equipment ; see posters, Thursday afternoon, the 17th inst., was an eventful occasion for the Belmore and McIntosh Presbyterian congregations. Their new minister, Rev. James S. McMillan, was ordained and inducted into the pastorate. The ceremony took place in the Mclntosh church, in the presence of the largest congregation that has ever been seen in that church. Divine service was conducted by the Rev. Mr. Duncan of Lucknow. He preached an appropri- ate and edifying sermon from the 7th verse of the 139th Psalm. Most suit- able addresses were given -- to the newly inducted pastor and to the people, by Revs, D. Tait and L. Perrin respectively. At the close of these services a splendid tea was provided by the ladies of the unitecl congrega- tions, which was most heartily. en- joyed. Everybody expressed them- selves as having a very pleasant and profitable time. During the proceed- ings. Rev. L. Perrin, who was interim moderator during the vacancy, was presented with a' well-filled purse in recognition of his services. Mr. Per- rin replied in felicitous terms. Rev. Mr. McMillan is a native of the north of Ireland, having been born in Lon- donderry, the stronghold of Ulster Protestantism, which played no small part in the history of the British Nation. It was there in 1088 twelve valiant boys, with the shout of "no surrender," shut the gates against the forces of King James, and aided by the citizens, held out successfully for a period of nine months, • until re- lieved by a number of ships sent from England. History tells us the rest of the story. Mr. McMiIlan's father was a wholesale and retail tea merchant in this city of Londonderry. He all - ways took a deep interest in the re- ligious life of the community. He held weekly prayer meetings in his own home and very often conducted evangelistic xneetings in his own and other towns, His intention was to enter the ministry, and was devoting his spare hours to study for that pur- pose, when the call came to him to' enter a higher service. He left a young widow with seven children, Rev. McMillan being the youngst of the family. The new minister of Bel - more received the greater portion of his theological training with colleges of Londonderry and Belfast. In the summer of 1908 he came to New Brunswick where he took up mission work, coming into contact for the first time with Canadian life and customs, He took his last year at the Knox College, Toronto. He was licensed by the Presbytery of Toronto. Last Suntih.,y large and very apprecia- tive congregations listened to his earnest and poetical sermons. We wish Mr, and Mrs, McMillan every blessing and prosperity in our midst. The whole community extends to them a most cordial welcome.

They will be a great boon to the whole neighborhood. In our humble opinion, one mistake has been made, viz.t••-The public has not been given the opportunity to subscribe and pay towards the expenses in er- ecting these structures. A great many people have expressed a desire to do so, thus feeling that they would not be accepting charity. We believe the entire cost will be about $1400. Salem. Mr. James Wylie, sr., has been very i11. He is not recovering as rapidly as his many friends would wish, but we trust that ere long he will be re- stored to health. Mr. Wylie is a man who is held in very high esteem by the community. The many enquiries that have been made regarding his health, testify to the fact.
