Whit''church
Ota alonday evening the Presbyter-
ian church was fairly well filled for
the purpose of hearing Rev. Thurlow
Fraser, D. D. of Owen Sound deliver
a lecture on "Pan-Germanismand the
Kaiser," In ib the speaker showed
that. the German nntinti, but 44 year
old, had envied Britain's greatness and
having found out one of the great sec-
rets of such, namely the colonization
principles, had been putting forth
every effort to extend her territory
not only in Europe, but beyond the
same. Her aim also is to have the
German influence and methods estab-
lished throughout the whole world, be-
lieving that the end justified the means
such as the sword, breaking her treat -
tee, etc. The Dr traced quite clearly
the influences brought to bear on the
nations of the world during the past
years, thus leading to the struggles
that have taken place up to the pres-
ent time, such ea the Boer War, the
struggle between Turkey and Italy,
the Balkan wars and the present
European. Only one nation has come
to the help of the Germans Since they
declared war and that is Turkey. The
other nations of the world not at
p.esent fighting with Britain sympa-
thize with her. When we speak of
the German nation we da not speak of
the Get man people but of the Kaiser.
The address was forcefuli, intructive
and inspiring, and way listened to by
an appreciative audience. Rev. Mr.
Penrose made a few remarks and the
choir rendered 'some excellent selec-
tions, A silver offering was taken at
'the door and amounted to $17.50. At
the close the Whitechurch Patriotic
and benevolent Association was form-
ed with the following officers; PreeiE
dent; Dan Martin; Vice Preeent Frank
Henry; Secretary, Rev J. Ure Stew-
a"e ; T'easurer, Roy Patton with

On Friday, December Iltb, in the
afternoon and evening a Sunday
School Institute will be held in the
Presbyterian Church under the direc-
tion of the Presbytery. Among the
speakers will be Rev, Dr. Dickey of
Chatham and Mr. Harold Waite of
Toronto, Fuller particles will be
given. It is hoped that the Presbyter;
Ian Sabbath Schools will be making
preparations for the same as speedily
as possible.
Tne anniversary services in connec-
tion with Langside Presbyterian
church was a very fair success consider-
ing the unfavorable weather experienc-
ed. On Sabbath Rev. M, McArthur of
Kincardine delivered two forceful ser-
mons which were greatly appreciated.
On Monday evening after a teameet-
ing Rev. A. Logan Geggie of Toronto
delivered his famous address, "Wit

audience spell bound throughout the
evening. Although the weather was
