The Regular Meeting of the Presby- tery of Maitland was held in the An- glican Church on Thursday, October 1, as repairs were being carried on in St, Andrews church. The principal work of the Presbytery was the discussion of the Budget for 1915. The appointment of Maitland Presbytery for thio year is $26000 This amount was apportioned among the various congregations. Rev. Dr. Herridge, Moderator of the General Assembly ani Dr. A. S. Grant, chair- man of the Finance Board were pre- sent and delivered addresses. Rev. Chao. M. Rutherford was elect- ed moderator for the ensuing six months. There was a large attendance at the morning and afternoon meetings. In the evening Rev, Dr. Herridge and Dr. Grant were welcomed by a very small audience, Every seat in the auditorium and gallery should have been occupied as they aro both emin- ent speakers. It is too bad those in charge were not sufficiently interested to have extended a wide open invitat- ion to all through the two newspapers in town, thus, giving our citizens the opportunity and invitation to attend. Rev. Dr. Herridge said in part that we must show that while we are ready to sacrifice for home, country and empire, we should make still greater sacrifice for the advancement of His Kingdom. People had enjoyed privileges so long that they had ceased to appreciate them. When coming to Wingham he wondered how the name of the town was pronounced, whether the accent was placed on "Wing" or "ham" but was glad to learn that the emphasis was on "Wing" from this laid empha- sis on the spiritual as against the mat- erial. The Rev. Dr, made a timely plea for better salaries for the^ Ministers, practical men are needed and the moat practical are those who see visions and dream dreams, A Christian can not be told by his service and by attend- anoe or collections. There were cad hearts to bo cheered and practical work to be done among those -who had wandered and those whom the ecant charity of the world had put aside, the creed of the world seems to be "Eyary man for himself and the devil for the hindermost", but Christ comes along and says I will take care of the hinder_ moat. The privilege of giving was em- phasized,—the man who keeps is poor and the man who gives is ricb. The state of lethargy in many churches was illustrated by a story of an old colored lady, who went into a fashion- able New York Church and began clapping her hands and saying, "Praise de Lord", A well groomed official told her she mutt keep quiet to which she replied, "I have got salvation" but the official said it was not the fault of his church asshe never got it there. Building on this he made and elequent appeal for more enthusiasm, more divine intoxication, This was the churches opportunity and he left the command of Wellington at Waterloo with his audience—:'Up guards and at Them". The Church should be up and at all forma of vice. Dr. Grant then followed with an ap- peal for home and Foreign Missions. t Town Council.

Dten—In Bast Wawanoslc, on Saturday, October 3rd, 1014, George 0, Naylor, In his 72nd year, e. HON. W, H. HEARST. ONTARIO n PRIME MINISTPR The Hon. W. II. Hearst has a diff- icult task to follow such an honored and revered statesman as Sir James Whitney. The new Prime Minister promises to follow the Witney trad- ition. His choice is a popular one and his future career will be watched with much intereat. He is in the prime of life having just turned fifty years, The new Premier is a staunch Meth- odist and an ardent temperance ad- vocate. Three Fifth? A sixty seven (67) per cent vote of the Methodist Conference was in favor of allowing women to have equal privileges with men in all church courts, boards and com- mittees. Wo regret the result of the vote, which ought to have been conclusive. The Conference demands a seventy five (76) per cent. vote. Yet in matters of hotel licenses many of the Metho- dist'`lergy say that fifty (50) per cent. is sufficient and that a sixty (60) per cent. vote is unfair, un - British, etc. Mr. N. W. Rowell will regret that the ladies are turned down since there was a vote of sixty seven (67) per cent, in their favor, that is, if he is sincere in his simple majority for local option. The Advance fails to see the jewel of consistency herein. (/1 Locat Items 3\# WV..-. / /V.MMIWVWMVW Read Merkley'e ad on page 3. WAS Hargreaves rescued from the tripled airship?

Musgrose, M.P.P., for any personal description he might have of Sir James, to which he replied as follows :— I first meet the late Premier, Sir James W ditaey in 1896, when he ad- dressed a meeting in the Town Hall here, in the interests of the late E. L. Dickinson, Conservative Candidate for the House of Commons. At this election there was strong op• position to the Remedial Bill and as a consequence, the public mind was much agitated. A very prominent Crangeman in conversation with Sir James before the meeting remarked that the meeting would be practially all Protestant, Turning in his chair the future Premier replied, "What do you mean? Do you think I will suit my address to the character of my hearers," This revealed a very striking feature of his character—no matter when he spoke he always dealt with his subject from a broad provincial point of view. During the bye -election between Mr. Garrow and Mr. Beck, Sir James ad- dressed a very large meeting in the Town Hall, on this occasion his address was marked by great force and was well received. .About this time the de- cision of the Privy Council on the Manitoba License Bill had been rend- ere;3,,declaring the Bill to be Constit- utional; and the Hon. G. W. Ross was being urged to fulfil his promis e made to the people of Ontario. Sit' James was asked to state his position on the question. His answer was, "When the Bill comes before the Legislature, 1 shall state my position in such terms and in such language as shall be fully under- stood by every elector in this Province". this he did the following year. When 1 first entered the Legislature Sir James had already been four years in office, and his policy had become well-defined and was in course of developement. One of his great qualities was his puuctuality--he was always in hie seat ready for work, at the appointed hour; having taken his seat he wou'd cast his eye around the Chamber, and if the benches were poorly filled there was a look of extreme disgust in bis countenance, woe to the deputation that would keep him waiting beyond the appointed hour. He did not think that any public meeting should be con- tinued beyond eleven o'clock, On one occasion Sir James attended a meet- ing where seven local apeakers preceed ed him, and he was not called upon un- til 11 p, in. He never permitted this to occur again. Sir James was ever kind and consid- erate to his followere—on one occasion one of bis surporters had interduced a 13111 which was fully discussed in cau- cus. The decision was come to that members should vote as they pleased rae chairman was about to announce the dec s on when S.r James atose,flre was in his eyes, "Mr. is too good a than, has done too much for the party to have his Bill slaughtered by his own friends, let him say a few words and then withdraw his Bill." This was done. When the question of Reciprocity first cache before the caucus a cumber thought that this being a Dominion question the Legislature should not in- terfere, Sir James thought otherwise and at a second meeting the party was unanimous in its opposition tq the measure. This decision of the Legis- lature had much to do with stiffening and consolidating opposition in Ontario "Do you want to devert all our trade to the South and leave the C. P. R. two streaks of rust" was his clo ing sent- ence. Like other mortals Sir James liked to be complimented ou his work. After the bye-etection in North Grey where I had addressed a series of meetings, I happened to oall upon the Premier. After a short conversation Sir James referred to the recent victory and very kindly thanked me for what I had done, In reply I said it was a pleasure to assiat in the bye -elections as his Government was easy to defend at any tune. He seemed to be very much pleased and laughed heartily. The Bret time .I met Sir James after his long illness was a few wecke before the late General Election—He com- plained that his friends would not per- mit him to go upon the platform. When I remarked that he should issue an address he pulled from his pocket several shoots of manuscript remark• ing "dere it is". I remarked that his address would be to the electors of Ontario as the words of Roderick Dant to hie men "One blast upon his bugle horn were worth a thousand men" at this he said that I must be Irish, but he was pleased, withal.

SUBSCRIBE FOR THE ADVANCE. St. Paul's Harvest Home Services The Annual H a o t Home Services of the Church°of St. Paul the Apostle on Sunday last were bright and inspir- ing and attended by large congregat- ions. The Church was beautifully adorned with grain, fruits and flowers in token of the ingathering of another bountiful harvest vouchea'ved to ne by a merciful Father. Rev, Charles Smith rector of Fergue,was the special preach- er for the occasion and delivered two thoughtful and impressive sermons on the joyous; and yet awe inspiring, fact of the mercies and love of the Almighty Father towards us; His beneficence in providing for the wants of man and our utter dependence on Him for our every need. The music throughout the daywas specially appropriate beginn- ing with the beautiful Harvess Home hymn, "Come ye thankful people come raise the song of Harvest Home" which was really the keynote of the day, The choir renderedtwo fine anthems and Miss Alice Mann sang a solo dur- ing the offertory at Evening Prayer very pleasingly. As has been the custom with the congregation of St. Paul's for many years the Harvest supper was served in the basement on Monday evening from six to eight o'clock and was largely at- tended, This Supp,,,' has become fam- ous for its excellen.•., and r eserves the generous patronage r.. air `i it always receives. The ladies , ; aru ,no pains in making the tables attractive and the viands delectable, and their efforts are much appreciated by those present. After the tea a short but interesting programme was given in the Mills' Memorial Hall, being opened by the rector, Rev. E. G. Dymond, in a few courteous remarks in welcoming the visitors and expressing appreciation to the ladies who did the work. The first number was that very popular ballad, "Its a long way to Tipperary" given very sweetly by Mies Alice Mann followed by an interesting address by Rev. D. Perrie, who conveyed the greetings of the congregation of St. Andrew's. Miss Miriam Smith sang very prettily, "Little Boy Blue". Rev. Charles Smith, of Fergus,made a short speech expressing hie pleasure at being present and incidentally making a few complimentary remarks about the town of Wingharn. The next number was a piano solo by Mr. R. K. Burkitt, which was greatly enjoyed by the au- dience as evidenced by the prolonged applause. A vocal solo was given by Mrs. Willis and was followed by a cor- ne t solo by Bandmaster Hinckley in his masterly way. The last number a solo by Miss Griffin was beautifully rendered. The singing of the National Anthem brought the evening to a close Miss Griffin and Mr, Burkitt -were the able accompanists for the evening and added not a little to the excellence of the programme.
