These Directors are in frequent con- ference. Each speaks in council with the authority of a great denomination. In turn he advises his own Church leaders of the trend of thought and policy in the other denominations, The position is one of importance, de - mending large gifts of judgment and tact, and the genius for organization, ANGLICAN: REV. CANON S. GOULD. "High -brow" is a misnomer. The men of most intellectual ,power are generally ,"broad -brows." If that part of the head north of the: eyes is tall and narrow the •owner is 'likely to be marc confident than competent. But watch the man with the wide forehead. Generally, he mill be worth watching. Rev,. Canon Gould, who represents the Anglican Church ins the Cabinet of the United National Campaign, is a "broad -brow," One is not surprised, therefore, to learn that lie is a Doctor of Medicine from Queen's, an Arts graduate from Toronto, and a Divinity graduate from Wycliffe. He served for sone years as a missionary in Palestine, and is a `,anon of St. George's Church in Jerusalem. Carlon Gould is ruddy of counten- ance, as becomes one who has sailed Levantine seas, His hair is touched with grey, and his stern eyes have seen the wicked flourishing iike a green bay tree. But he is nota stern man. On the 'contrary, he has all the social graces, including the merry heart; which doeth good like a medic- ine. The strong, well turned chin and the full lower lip prove that the Anglican Church made no mistake in naming Canon Gould to a position of leadership. As Secretary of the Foreign Missionary Society of the Church, he Itas displayed great executive ability. Already his contribution to the work of the United National Campaign has been valuable, BAPTIST: REV. DR. JOHN MacNEILL. Br -r -r -ace County, Ontario, is inhabited mainly by Scots and their descendants. Caledonian honor, Cale- donian acuteness and Caledonian games are found in profusion along the shores of Lake Huron and the Georgian Bay. A vast number of successful risen in Canada and the United States have pleas ant memories of Walkerton, Kincardine, Port Elgin and the land about. Bruce was their training ground, the Sound of bagpipes was their lullaby, and the Hundredth Psalm their treasure, Rev, John MacNeill, D.D., has the Bruce County manner, though he is not a Presbyterian. lie is minister of Weimer Road Baptist t;ihurch, Toronto. Naturally being a Scot, he has a deep passion for learning and a deeper love for righteousness. He has' the Celtic temperament, the gift of fiery oratory and the ability for accurate and original thanking. For these reasons his Church is always full, and the proportion of men in his congregation is large. is Dr. MacNeill is a "a man's man. His straight -held lips show the power of decision. His chin Is prominent, but the happy wrinkles about the lips and eyes relieve a tendency towards Scot tish obstinacy. He has the power of leadership, and the grace of diplomacy. Black hair, dark, piercing eyes, a broad forehead with the "bumps" of percep- tioti most apparent, and a square face makes this minister a commanding fig- ure in any pulpit or on any platform, He has been named Director of the Baptist Movement and will be found in happy association with the representa- tives of the other denominations co- operating in the United National Campaign. • CONGREGATIONAL: REV. DR. FRANK lieu of their boat trip i did not go on -a previous voyage. it is a very fine trip. `The scenery in Japan is very fine. The "islands 'are of volcanic origin and so are rocky and mountainous. Agriculture is very difficult and very little patch 01 ar- able earth ort the hillsides is cultivated. Nearly all the hills are terraced, which gives them a very pretty appearance. -'The Japanese have built many railroad and also good macadamized roads 'throughout the country, in this as in several other respects they are more advanced than the Chinese, also their streets are Wider and cleaner than those in China. Al tiagaska our spip coaled, this is an interesting process. 'Scores of little flat-bottomed boats fill- ed with coal surround the ship. Hun dreds of the little Jap men and women swarns, on these boats, The coal is fill- -.ed into baskets, and these are passed in a steady stream from the boats up ladders, dumped into port -holes and emptied into the bunkers, altho all this ♦vork is done by hand still it is done so -methodically and quickly, that we are 'told that the ship is coaled more quick- ly here than at other ports where mach - 'finery is used. On our ship (S. S. Empress of Rus- sia) we had, as steerage passengers 23- -90 Chinese labor Corps'Cooties from 'France, So after leaving Japan we next sailed for Tsingtao to disembark the Coolies; Go our way to Tsingtao we sighted the coast of Corea but did not call at any port there, We were all very glad to see Tsingtao ,,for as you will remember this was the port that was taken by J a an from Germanye early in the war, and which has been causing so much criticism by China and U. S. .A. re the Peace Treaty, The city sur- prised us by its fine appearance, some- •oett said it is the finest I have seen, most modern, fine buildings, broad clean streets, etc. The harbor is also one of the best .10 China 11 has many great docks and wharves, with capac- ious "go -dawns" or warehouses along 'the shore. On every hand there are evi- dences of lavish expenditures made by Germany. One can easily imagine what Was the chagrins of Germany in losing Tsingtao, and also the desire of Japan to hold it at all costs. We saw very few evidences of the bombardment; but the Jens have had about five years to re- pair it. Our ship stayed three or four ']hours of Tsingtao, and during that time the coolies were disembarked, each :paying $10.00, Then they were loaded .into a freight train, do coolies to each iboxcar, as it was a hot day 1 did not envy thein. However, like the. Caned - lens they were all happy to be home once more, and as we sailed out from 'the harbor the fast we saw of them they were wearing the saint° that would not .tome off, We just arrived at the Mouth of tit!` Gangter.

Day, re- presentative from .the Congregational Church to the United National Oam- patgnl. Dr. Day is a sturdy, well-built man of moderate height, but of uncom- mon speed. He could not walk slowly, even if he were in no hurry. He could not speak slowly if he had nothing to say. ids: brown eyes flash with en- thusiasm. His face is bright with ex- pression. Dr, Day's voice is a tenor of Iliad Severe Cold IT TURNED TO 'TLA t:'Ci hl� EC �a f t haves and don Man lc Many neap bronchitis know it. Don't even know the danger of ne- glecting it. Bronchitis starts with a dry, short, painful, hacking cough, accompanied with rapid wheezing, and a feeling of oppression or tightness through the chest. At first the .raised -up phlegm is of a light color, but as the trouble progresses it becomes of a yellowish or greenish color, and is very often of a slimy nature, streaked with blood, Bronebitis shouidenever he neglected. Pneumonia or Consumption may follow if it is. Mr. F. F. Boycier, Edmonton, Alta., writes:—"oast winter 1 .took a severe cold which turned to bronchitis.

His words ring in the ear like music, and his laugh is .cheery, whole-souled and effortless, Born in a parsonage, he early gained the right outlook upon life, and accept- ed the only dependable philosophy of living, Therefore, after being grad- uated from the Congregational College, Montreal, and McGill University, he was soots found. in Y,M,C.A, work, and sI- terwards in thenaltslstry. Ile was the minister of Northern 'Jotigregational church in 'Toronto until the dwar 01005. Thera he went overseas as a Y, M, C. A. representative, ;mel served use fighting risen in Flanders. While at Bonn during the first oc- cupation of enemy territory, he re- oeived a cabled message from Dr, Hugh Pedley, of Montreal, asking Balli to be- come Director of the .Congregational 'Forward Muvement. He accepted, bringing'to the Cabinet of denominat- ional representatives' great stores of energy, cheerfulness, initiative, and native ability, METHODIST; REV. J, H. ARNUP. Rev. J.i-1. Arnup has no great amount of hair, just enouglh to justify his heat- ed than he is growing bald. A man with an excess of brains need not expect to have a superfluity of hair also, It is no mere windy compliment to say that Mr. Arnup has an exceptional mind. He is a young man, yet he holds a posi- tion demanding high executive ability, As assistant Secretary of Foreign Mis- sions in the Methodist Church, he is counted as the peer of such men as Dr. Endicott, Dr. Manning, Dr. Creigih- ton, Dr. Moore, Dr. Graham. As a public speaker and at preacher he is n flame of fire. Mr, Arnup is not tall. Sharp as needles are his eyes. They can bore into anyone in an instant. Tight and first are his lips, vigorous is his chin. tie is a picture of lean efficiency, the sort of a man who seems to be made of whip -cord and piano -wire, He is no sentimentalist, but the great sentiment of religion rules his heart and mind, If he makes up his -mind on any sub- ject, he is like Mrs. Camp: 'Wild. horses would not move him," 'i'he•e are reserves of enthusiasm in the spirit of Mr, Arnup, What he believes in he believes in 'bard". This United National Campaign has gripped hint heart and soul, As Secretary of the Methodist For- ward Movement, he has a great task, but a great opportunity, which he wel- comes heartily. in the United counsels he is a brother beloved, PRESBYTERIAN: REV. DR. ROBERT LAIRD. A massive head, perfectly domed and well covered with dark, close clipped hair; straight eyebrows and calculating blue eyes, with the mem- ories of mirth about theist; a large, clean cut, firm mouth; a chin thrust- ing itself out manfully—truly Dr. Robert Laird, Presbyterian representa- tive to the Cabinet of tate United National Campaign, is a man to remark. He is more than six feet tall. His shoulders are immense. His hands are those of a practical idealist—square, the motion of a vessel carrying it. pointed at an object irrespective of which is clammed to keep the glass and with knotted joints. Theretbre must he be an orderly man, He has the "will -power thumb," sturdy and strong. Yet there are tr2tes of diplo- macy in the softness of his palm which tend to modify the determination and courage which announce themselves clamorously in every feature of his countenance. Dr. Laird can be stern if occasion requires, but he will never be arrogant or intolerant. Walking, he is ;straight, vigorous and graceful. Sitting, he becomes a more or Tess Intricate tangle of arms and legs. When -he indulges in close attention to some subjects under dis- cussion, or when he is revolving some plan of action, he reminds one of Rodi 's sculptured figures, "The Thinker." Dr. Laird's voice is a rich and musical bass, heavy, but not in the least rough. Probably in public speech he could "fill" the largest auditorium in Canada, since in ordinary conver- sation the vibration -point of his tone is so low that the windows are almost inclitfed to rattle in sympathy. It is a pedal -organ voice that could thrill any assembly. Dr. Laird was educated at Pictou Academy and. Queen's 'University. He was in the pastorate at Gampbellford, Brockville and Vancouver until he was named by tate General Assembly to raise an Endowment Fund for Queen's Uni- versity. While engaged in this work he was also Professor of Practical Theo- logy. Becoming, last year, Secretary of the Presbyterian Board of Finance, he was the logical choice as Secretary of the Presbyterian Forward Move- ment. The owner of some limestone caves in Virginia has piped the air from then into his house to P r vid e an evenen tem- perature the year round. A safety gas meter invented in Hol- iand is claimed to prevent the possi- bility of asphyxiation and to indicate the loss of unconsunled gas. MAN The frost is here.
