gation hope it will not be the last. The
morning eermoa was addressed to parents
and was based on the familiar words
"Oar Father which art in Heaven." He
showed very clearly that Fatherhood
meant (1) The supply of all our temporal
wants ; (2) Protection ; and (8) Educa-
tion. In the afternoon at the mass
meeting n t g Rev. Mr. Anderson gave a short
address recommending personal religion
to the pupils and showing its advantages.
The evening discourse was aline one, be-
ad on Pealm 63 and 3, "Thy loving kind-
ness hi better than life" in which the
young people were urged into relationship
with Josue Christ and the church so that
their experience might be that of David's
in the text. Mr. Anderson has a good
voice and preeeuoe and is enthusiastic in
his delivery. The congregations were
both pleased and edified.
