DEAR FRIBN0 —We, who have been assooi- ated with you in the capacity of Sunday ssh0ol teachers during the past five yea's, feel that We would like to express our op- preclation of the faithfuleervloes wb.eli you have rendered the school throughout the period Iii which you eo ably dieoharged tete somewhat alduone duties of a Superiu. tendent, We have felt that the school was to you a centre of warmest interest and that the work was cheerfully performed because you recognized the feet that the work was a labor of love. You have, unconsciously no doubt, exemplified a truth most concisely expressed by Ruskin: That whenever the labors of life are fulfilled in the spirit of striving against misrule, and doing what- ever we have to do honorably and perfectly, they invariably bring happiness as much as seems possible to the nature of man " We could not fail to native either the lofty ideal whioh yon have ever striven to Mace before pupils and teachers aLke. You have inspired us with the thought that the 11108850 and noblest Christianity is that which manifests itself in the doing of good to others and have shown us the truth of Leigh 9unt's words "The man who truly loves his fellows i is the man wile truly loves God." Your energetic and enthusiastic methods of work have done much to increase the usefulness of the school, which was so faith- fully and wisely controlled by your esteem- ed predecessor and we are much pleased to know that while you have temporarily stepped -aside from your work as Superin- tendent that you aro still to continue as active a worker in our midst as ever. Wo with you and your esteemed partner a long and prosperous Wooled. we trust God may oauee many a bright flower to spring up along your pathway, and when this Ilfe'e work is o'er y00 may be called to that higher sphere Of action where GOd will Drown the labors of his faithful muss, Signed on behalf of Melville S. S. Teacher s. 'Brussels, Jan. 20,7900. A very appropriate reply was made by Mr. Blair expressive of his thanks for the eulogistic words in the address and fall of encouragement and hops as to the fntere of the school. Oomplimentary speeches were made by Rev. Jno. Ross, B. A., A. M. McKay and the Chairman. Then followed a musical and literary program in which Miss Jo. Ross read "Reply to Kipling's Absent Miuded Beggar" ; solo by Mr. J. H. Cameron ; reading by T. A. Hawkins ; quartette, "Bird witn the broken pinion" ; reran - tion, G. F. Blair ; solos, A. Roes and J. H. Cameron ; quartette, "Crossing the bar" ; &o. An oyster supper was eerved before the close at whioh ample justice ;vas done by all, The oompany voted Mr. and Mrs. Blair first -aloes entertainers and the pleasant evening will not soon be forgotten.
