Take out your horse or auto, And drive the country roads, And see the fields and orchards Bearing their precious loads. Old Mother Earth produces With lavish hand and free, Bnt half is lost or ruiued By man's stupidity. Ten thousand tons of apples Will surely go to waste While poor folks in the cities' Will hardly get a taste. We take good wheat and barley And manufacture bums, Whhosq peives, and littleohildren Are starving in the alums. The man that's poor as woodwork, And nearly always broke, Oen somehow find a nickel To puff away in smoke; While those who have the money To eat and drink Their fills, Are sere to over -do it, And run up doctor bills. ,If. when times are peace fol I kill one man, by heck' They'll call it bloody mu d r, And hang me by the neck. In war -time he's a hero, Who sendta through air or sea A bomb t t blow a thousand Into Eat rn'ty. And SO, dear gentle reader, 'Tis proved by all the rules, That earth's whole population Except ourselves, aro fools. • • ONLOOKER .rte..........,. ,,... Church 1rtev9s 3 PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH Sunday evening the Rsv, 1), Perrie in the Presbyterian church preached from Numbers 11:6 "But now our soul is dried away; there is nothing at all' beside this manna, before our eyes.' The Preacher said in part;—The Israel- ites were brought to a resting plate at God miraculously provided them with manna, yet, they became discontented and their thoughts returned to the fieeh pots of Egypt. Although sand led them to the promised land and pro- vided them with manna, 'the taste of which was as the taste of fresh oil', yet this diet became loathsome; so, may not Christians of today become disatie- fied with Heavenly bread. It was the duty of Christians to be ever vigilant, 'Man's chief end is to.glorify God and enj ey him forever'. 'Rest' is the key word of the Christian faith --joy, love. triumph, victory, soul satisfaction are attengthening attributes. In olden times people listened to ser- mons 2 hre in length, then an hour. prayer, followed by another sermon of two homer, yet this appeared no longer to them than tbe present Ferfices to people of to -day. Three hundred years ago women could stand ankle deep in snow to listen to a sermon of one hour and their souls received stay and eup- port, such has developed the ehristian spirit of New England. '}'he tendency of today was to give attehtlon 1 o out- side service to the neglect of our own souls. 'I have kept other vineyards but my own have I not kept.' With many, religious life grew monotonous and irksome for something sensation- al. What is to be thought of the man who could not spend quiet evenings in the bosom of his own family but crav- ed°for outside amueementse, so in re- ligious life men were yearning for ex citement. As the physeciau, who dab- bles in politics, soon loses standing in his profession, so the Cbristian who dissipates his strength on outeidelriv- olities loses spiritual force. Devoted saints have had to whip themselyes up to do their duty, then came a, ;feoling •of relief. It is personal, quiet etude; faithful, conscientious work that counts. We require the faiih of -Moses oses to see Him whole invisible Truly loyal wholehearted Christians will never allow another power to supplant the love of God and as fallible beings their must be self denial and self-sacrifice Church of St. Paul The Apostle Where Does The Money Go? People, who are asked to con- tribute and do contribute yearly to any organization, 'have a tight to know how their money is spent. Dominion Alliance representatives have again been occupying our pulpits telling of their deficits and soliciting contrihutione. Mt n who have been in the habit of contri- buting in the past ate asking, 'Where does the money go?' Strong, ardent, sincere, honest temperance Conservatives are won- dering if money contributed by them in the. past has been used during the past ,provinc'el cam- paign to pa}r:ot'ganation expenses of candidates -opposing the Whit- ney Government or expenses of Alliance sspeakere,who always saw fit to assist the Row©Il candidates. If so, our churches are being used indirectly to collect campaign funds to be pled against a clean, honest, temperance Administra- tion. The Advance believes the Alliance should item) a print- ed statement showing clearly :into what channels the money goes. Hundreds of meal who have been contributors in the past, are refue'ng to contribute until they get further light. Will that light be denied? it's A Long Way To Tipperary.

Posli ff of Wingham delivered an able ad- dress on 'Military Training in Public Schools," It would be a great step in teaching patriotism, obedience and order. Most of tbe exercises can be taken up' without inconvience. A great thing in building up citizenship, ih%ulating a 'respect for discipline. The learning by the pupil of the mili- tary training exercises is a great bene- fit in building up healthy manhood, closely connected with this is physical exercise and with the book provided every teacher can take the work suc- cessfully. Games taught under physical exercises giyes freedom and decision of movement, the two, physical training stud military train- ing, were ineepat•atlr in building up good healthy, patriotic titizene. The subject was further discussed • by Messrs. B. S. Scott, Hoggarth, Hol- man, the Preeident, Dr. Field and others. Opinion as to military train ing in schools was diversified but all. agreed that physical training weer very beneficial, Mr. Wallace wha (should have been on the program with Me. Poeliff, dwelt more particu- larly on the benefits of physical train• ing going into the teaching of the work very minutely. with reference to health, the proper position in echool and the development of the body. It was then moved by G. W. Hol- man, seconded by J, H. Thompson, that this Association make a contri- bution to the Patriotic Fund, the amount and manner of the contribu- tion to be settled later.

AFTERNOON SESSION. On reassembling at 145, Mise Jennie Grant, Clinton, was called on and gave a . ery interesting and in- structive address on 'The Teachers' Agricultural Conference at Guelpb," in August last. The great problem as to what to teach to stop the great downward migration of pupils was the great pros tern requiring solution. One of theee was the proper teaching of Agriculture in the. schools. Den- mark and Rolland were cited as the beet examples of the work done in this direction. There folk and High Schools do this work in every school district. Great efforts are made there to teach patriotism as well. This is an age of progress and there must be greater effort to train along praqtical lines, to teach breadth of .thought and high ideals. Practical farming can not be •taught but the pupil can be trained to experiment in .such as school gardening, home gardening, or clubs. Begin with home gardening by preparing in the Fall, read agricu' tura' books, make school room at- tractive and also the school premisee. Children should be taught to play games and develop the qualities of square dealing in the playground. The subject was further enlarged upon by Mies Ida Frain, who spoke more particularly of her own exper- t nee in school garden work and out- lined the work done in that line. Mies Frain exhibited very interesting drawings and compositions on the work. Home gardening work of the season was brought to a conclusion by it' inthe sohoola with an exhibition , Kort accounts b the u ile of the Mies Minnie A.
