A large number of citizens met at the station to join in the wel- come to the Dr, and his good wife and the Kittle Pipers were there to lead the procession to their home. A very sudden death occurred here on Tuesday at noon, when' Mr, John Scruton, dropped dead from heart fail- ure. The late Mr. Scruton was 'con- ducting his business as usual during the morning in apparent good health and had Just entered the Commercial Hotel and spoke only a couple of words to Mr. McCaughey when he dropped dead, the doctor pronouncing it heart failure. For over 35 years Mr. Scruton has been in the butchering business here, He was born at Veinna, in Elgin Co. He reached the age of 57 years and 9 months, He was married twice, his first wife being Lizzie Mason and one son survive, Edward of town, Some fifteen years ago he harried his now bereft partner, Kate tdennel and two children survive, Frank and Marion, He is also survived by four brothers. Edward and Robert of Vienna, Richard at Farground, Norfolk Co., and George in the West, He was a member of St. Paul's church and belonged to the Sons of England. In his younger days he was a good lacrosse player and all round athlete, Sone years ago he was also a member of the fire brigade, NEW HYMN BOOK IS OUT Methodists Have Splendid Collection for Church Services. - Recognise Home Writers - Pessimism Omitted and Strong Spiritual Feeling Shown. The publication of a new hynut book is an event of national signifi- cance. It narks an epoch in Church history and indicates the nation's in- tellectual and spiritual progress. Such an event took place last week in the publication of the new Methodist Hymn Book, which is issued for gen- eral use throughout the Dominion of Canada and Newfoundland, The hymn book at present in use was pub- lished thirty-seven years ago, when Canada was still in the pioneer stage and the Methodists in Canada were putting in the foundation of what afterward became the Methodist Church of Canada by the uniting of the several sections which called themselves Methodists. The new book is the result of seven years of careful labor on the part of a special cont- nlittee appointed at the General Con- ference of tOto, Last Thing in Hymn Books. it is not only the last thing in hymn books, but it is regarded by many as the best compilation of hymns extant. I contains t 656 hymns and a selection of psalms and canticles. The old book contained 936 hymns, and a number of canticles besides. The process of enulination, revisor and addition has been a very delicate ate, as some hun- dreds of "old favorites" have had to be discarded, but this is more than compensated for by the introduction of new favorites in which the old book was lacking, It is contended that no real "old favorites' have been discarded, but that all the hymns that have been generally used for congregational sing- have been retained, Eliminating Pessimism. Otte of the ntlost striking features about the deletions 3s the deliberate cutting out of what alight be termed the pessimistic hymns, of which the old book had numerous examples. A casual comparison of tite two indexes reveals the abseiled in the new book of the hymn beginning- rrCOnie On, my partners in distress, My 401nredee through tits wilderness," Canadian hymn -writers have receiv- ed generous recognition in the new book. Among these are Rev, Dr, A. H, ]teynar, Dr. A, D. Watson, Rev. Dr. 0, C. Workman, lion, W. 5, Fielding, Rey, W. H. Adams, and the late Dt. E, 1.1, Dewart LIr, A. D. Watson con- tributes 'no less than five hymns to the new collection, the most popular Lands," which was written to the music of '20 Canada," The hymn has dig- nity and simplicity, and is comprehen- sive, Dr, Watson, however is more poetical in itis hymns "Por t Flower Service" and "For those at sea," and the Christmas hymn, especially in such lines as--- ", I he lily's purepand simple dress, The daisy's innocence so fair, ? Are emblems of Thy holiness, The sweet reminders of Thy care" Rev, Dr. A, H. Reynar's hymn (af- ter Paul Gerhardt) is a most distin- guished piece of work, as is Indicated by the opening lines; "O'er field and forest stealing, Comes night all eyelids sealing," Res. Dr. Workman's hymn is thor- oughly Wesleyan in spirit and is di- rect and strong in its teaching and application. The addition as such poems as Clough .'s "Say, Not the Struggle Nought Avalleth" raises the quality of the collection from a poetical point of view; although no modern hymn - writer has equalled Isaac Watts in poetical devotion. Influence of War The fact that this new book was compliedin the midst of the greatest war in history will always be evident to future generations. At its incep- tion a wave of pacificism was sweep- ing over Canada, and if the kook had been issued earlier it is vary probable that the war chants would have gone the way of some of the gloomy psalms. There were members of the committee who regarded "Onward, Christian Soldiers" as an obsolete, if not a pernicious hymn, As it is, the new book has a number of sew hymns for war - hoe. Notable amen• these is A.C. Benson's fine hymn be- ginning - "0 e ginning - 0 Lord of Hosts, who didst upraise Strong Captains to defend the right." Kipling's "Recessional" gives expres- sion to the larger vision of Empire, combined with the gospel of "a humble and a contrite heart." The music of the new hymn book is 'worthy of special notice, and is infinetely superior to the old book. Several Canadian composers have con- tributed settings to the new hymns, The Committee The following comprised the 11011t- bers of the cormitte: Rev. S. P. Rose, D.D.; S. T.
