On Tuesday of time week, Rev, G. •H,.
Cobblediok, B. D., President, °coupled
the chair.
Tile morning session opened at 10 e.
in. "I ala so glad thatJesns loves 133)9"
was sung, after which prayer was offered
by James Smillie and B. Gerry, The
President read the 93rd realm and the

•
Rev. Mr. Cobbledfok, President, ex-
pressed his gratification at the auspicious
openly of bhis Convention ; at the ex-
cellency of the program and the large list
of delegates forwarded to the Billeting
Committee, He hoped a day of pleasure
and profit was before diem. We have

"Whathave o
v we come
for 7"was filo
first topic) and was introduced by Wm.
Pollard, Superintendent of the Methodist
school, Walton. He referred to the
necessity belt by different professions and
sections for meeting in Convention. We
are here as a religious duty and the com-
bined mental and spiritual powers are
required to make the gathering a Success.
Como with a fixed purpose to get benefit.
We must make rise of the means to do
and receive good, Come for a good time.
Come to represent our S. S. and show
the aide we are on. The speaker delight•
ed iii the inter -denominational spirit that
prevailed and that the dividing fences
have been largely removed,
The discussion was 'joined in by 13.
Gerry, J. Smillie and Goo. Grigg and a
number of excellent points made.
Hymn 175 was sung, "Bark 1 the voice
of Jesus,"
G. F, Blair, assistant Superintendent
of Melville church, Brussels, introduced
the important subject, ''Benefits of a
weekly Teachers' Meeting." The speak-
er emphasized the necessity of these
gatherings and the benefits accruing from
them and they will be successful accord-
ing to the enthusiasm of the teachers.
More systematic Bible study ie required
and this etudy must be confined to the
church and home. The majority of our
teachers have little opportunity .for out-
, sidle training and here the teaohere' class
.0011100. to their rescue. Mutual inter-
ohange of ideas is whore the benefit comes
3u. Want of interest is the cause of
many faiiures in carrying on these
gatherings. These meetings give uni-
formity of teaching. It aids in definite-
ness, Don't theorize but tesoli the
Truth as the story and text give it.
A.. Stewart, Rev. ii. Paul, T. Strachan,
W. IL Kerr, W. Pollard, and Rev. Cob•
bledick all saw the necessity of
maintaining a weekly teachers' meeting
and thought the lack of interest was the
cause of failure.
"I Iove to tell the story," was heartily
sung. Rev. Mr. McRae was not present
and an interchange of topics was made.
"What the S. S. may learn from busi-
ness men" was the practical topics B.
Gerry, assistant Superintendent of the
Methodist sohool, Brussels, spoke on.
These were his points :—(1) He must de-
cide the line of business. 115 will enter ;
(2) He decides the quantity and quality
of his goods ; (3) Ile must understand
his business so that he feels at home in
it (4) He invites the public and tries to
supply their needs ; (5) He keeps up his
etc. and has a "want" book ; (6) He
sps seasonable goods ; (7) He 311110t be
commodating and so must be his em•
'ees ; (8) He must advertise his goods
d leave 11s opposition alone ; (9) Hes
11 'exhibit his goods and put some teethe
ut; (10) He will be known by his
siness ; business is done for the benefit
be derived from it ; some goods yield
re profit than others.
The Nominating Committee was ap-
it0d as follows :—Thb President, Bev.
Ross, A, Stewart, T. Strachan, Jas.

"Praise God from whom aril blessings

"The world of the S. S. Teacher" was
the first topic, introduced by Rev. R,
Paulin an excellent paper, which we hope
30 reproduce shortly. What teach-
ing is not --it is not for entertainment.
The aim must be Gotl's glory. It is not
kegivela
pself downbhand exa113 God, That
teacher should not oreale doubt in the
mind' of the pupil. It is not to preedi
but to teat% and here ninny fail. It ie
the work of the Lord and the aim should
be to lead the pupil to the Saviour. The
teacher must gain the attention of the
pupil, Ho must win the affeetio(1 of the
dame for himself, the Tretll and; the
Lord, One object must always be before
him. The Truth -should be presented in
,plain language and made clear to all.
The lesson should be taught earnestly.
All teaching should be practical char-
acter, directed by`tlre Holy Spirit. In
teaching the Holy Spirit is too often left
out, Tho gnalifioatlons of a tea01101' are
a healthy body ; a, sound, cultured, vigor•
one mind it warm, sympathetiol heart ;
a devoted and consecrated) life must be
master of the 0itaa1ion,

Presbyterian church. 111 this very 1
teresting discussion the following person
took part, Messrs, Strachan, Gerry, Dea
man, Smillie, Kerr, Revels., Kellingto
Shaw, Waddell, Paul and Ross.
Miss Mary Ross, Primary teaoher i
Melville Sabbath school, taught thaless
for next Sabbath—The Resurrection
the Saviour—in a most pleasing,9raotic
and profitable manner. She utilized th
blaolcboards, caterpillar, cocoon, butter
fly, in illustrating the teaching of thele
son. Quite an interesting discussion f
lowed on Primary class work.
Reports followed of visited made by
various persons to the different Sabbath
schools in Grey and Morris townships
during the past year, Rev. G. F. Salton,
of Stratford, aketcbed the work of a
Normal Institute.
Rev. W. J, Waddell, of Ethel, had the
closing subject, "The Teacher's Reward."
The reward depends lad, On the free will
of the teacher ; 2nd, The moral quality
of the work done ; do a definite work for
Christ ; 3rd, The reward trill depend on
the source from which it conies. The
teacher is saved from the Habit of Sab-
bath breaking. Safer as to tendency to
seeptioism. Purity of motive looking to
God will be blessed. Mr. Waddell dealt
with his .subject in a very interesting
menner,
Moved by Rev. Mr. Cobblediok second-
ed by Mr. Gerry that the Executive be
iuetructed to secure the services of Rev.
Mr, McEwen for a Normal Instituto to
be held in Brussels on a date to be ar-
ranged. Carried.
One of the moat interesting sessions
ever held by this Association was closed
about 5 o'oloolr by Rev. 67r. Salton pro-
nouncing the Benediction.

Melville church was crowded to the
doors by 7:30 by an interested audience.
President Blair ocoupledthe chair. The
hymn "Holy 1 Rely 1 Holy 1" was sung
and Roy. D. Forrest, of Walton, offered
prayer. Misses Lillian Ainley mud Mary
Rose and A. M. McKay and Alex. Ross
sang a fine quartette "The Lord God bo
with us."
Rev, T. W. Cosene, of Walton, deliver-
ed a Most excellent address on "Enthus.
iaam in S. S. Work." He proved that
excitement is not enthusiasm and then
proceeded to show why the parent should
euthusiaetioally support the Sabbath
School.. The enthusiastic) teacher must
be it Christian with established Christian
attendee ; a person of prayer who will
pray un tit he receives the power of the
Holy Spirit ; a student ; he will do a lot
of pastoral work. The teacher should be
full of enthusiasts because of what the
children may become to the home ; to
sooiety ; to the nation ; to the Church.
Sabbath School work is the grandest in
the world because it touches eternity.
.lir. Cosens' timely address received the
close attention it deserved.
A. hymn wee heartily joined fu and
following it Rev. J. Rose answered the
many puzzling queries in the Question
Drawer in a prompt and satisfactory
manner. Not a few of then were inteu.
sely theological and rather foreign to
Sabbath School work.
The quartette "Sim of my Soul" was
sung by Misses Ainley end hoes and
Messrs. McNay and Ross.
The coneludling address of the day was
delivered by. Rev. G. F. Salton, of Strat-
ford, formerly of Brussels. Ih was out of
the
usual track and was based on the
statement that The Formative Ministry
is better than the Reformative, or Pre-
vention is better than cure. He stated
that out of 13 million young men on
thig Continent, 10 millions have gone
through the S. S. and only about one
million is in the church. We aro winning
diameter for others as well as ourselves.
The Christ life and likeness should be
our ambition; Character is slow of
growth but the possibilities of childhood
are boundless, Mr. Salton very strongly
urged S, S. workers and pertains tb melee
an earnest effort to never lose their grip
on the youth of their oommimi13y. His
address set more than one of his auditors
thinking and will do good.
Moved byy. Rev. Mr. Waddell, seconded
by C. Michie that this Astooiettiou plane

QUEEN'S BIRTHDAY.
1819rF i. 1895
76th Anniversary Celebration.
Queen's weather favored the loyal sone
and daughters of title grand Province last
Friday as they celebrated the seventy-
sixth anniversary of the birth of good
Queen Victoria. If it was a gullet day to
any it was not for want of demonstra-
tions, as the day was honored in hun-
dreds of places and games, sports, mili-
tary displays, fireworks, &o., &o., demon.
titrated that the day has a strong grip on
the land' of the maple leaf,
The celebration committee in Brussels
parried out their program of fun in a
most satisfactory manner and bad the
gratification of knowing that a neat
surplus was left in Treasurer Kcenig'e
hands when altindebtnees wee cancelled.
Shortly after 10 a. m. the town Band
made its Orsi appearanee for this season
and rendered the Rational Anthem ; "Im-
perial," gekikstep, by Soathwell ; andante
and waltz, "Boquet" ; "My Lemon,"
song and dance, by P. H, Losey ; an-
dante end waltz, "Lorena," by MoOosh ;
"The British Grenadiers" ; and "H3
Henry's premium minstrel march" in
capital style, 14 mouthpieces and drums
doing duty, with W. Grower ae °enduot-

The members of these reepeotive Foot
Ball Olubs lined up on Victoria Park at
]0:30 o'clock and at the word of 00m•
mend from Referee Cranston, of Atwood,
the ball was set in motion and for the
succeeding hour and a half the large num.
ben of spectators were greatly interested
in the play. .Excellent work wits done
by both elevens, and they were so evenly
matched the first half time that the bell
was in close proximity to both goals more
than mice and expectation ran high as to
the final result. The first three- quarters
of 001101.13 passed without either club
snoring, but shortly after changing ends
a ]lot shot whirled past Ted, Grilnoldby
and the visitors omunted a goal. This
aroused the home team to more deoided
and oonoertod notion and after some neat
combination work on the wings Brussels
hustled in 3 Vietorioos eliote and thereby
won the game. The Atwood boys are a
gentlemanly lot of fellows and play e,
good game, but they weren't in it in the
last half of the =titian] Friday. This
concluded the forenoon's fan and an ad-
journment was "lade for dinner, The
