'The hall at the evening sessinn was filled with men and women. Secretary Bailie occupied the chair and introduced the speakers, who were the same as in the after- noon. All were enthusiastic institute workers, and emphasized the impor- tance of the farming industry to -day. One of the speakers spoke of the many advantages of country life, and of the ooportunities for the boys and girls. He urged ahat they should be made to resilize that no other occupa- tion offers so happy and independent a life as agriculture, -'22 they could only see the beauty of farm life," he said, "the music ot the birds, better than that of the music halls of the city," In elm cities are to be seen the monu- ments of politicians and warriors; but the pioneers who toiled for the up. building of the country left their mon- uments behind them, Parents should talk to their children, make their en- vironment more congenial, and edu- cate them to take the places of re- sponsibility in the world, and be a credit to their homes and to the na- tion. Rev. Jeakin's Letter Continued From Page One the bodily sen ses there comes the higher life. We do well then to take care of the body. It is of such importance that the .Divine Word says " Your bodies are the Temples of the Holy Ghost," But. sir, I did not start out to sermonize. Rather to emphasise the necessity of providing suitable re- creation (I use the word in its real sense) for our young people the boys and girls who will be the man and women of tomorrow. Scarcely can one find a winter mose of recreation more refreshing, ex- hilarating and beneficial than skating. A well playedehockey match is capital exercise for the young among the sterner sex, Then there's curling - splendid exercise for the seniors among us, the great begetter of comrade- ship .and esprit -de -calve among the men of the community. One great dreWback of our long winter season is the lack of sufficient exercise for young and old. I feel sure that business problems would be the better grappled with, yea even sermons might he the better written if there were of legit- imate recreating exercises. It is the Church's duty to look after the young, Whilst the Church dir- ectly does not undertake to provide forms of refreehing recreation, yet the Church should throw the weight of her euthority and influence on the side of those who are striving to do their duty to the young -in this re- spect if in no othex-in laying a good. foundation physically for a strong and virile "Oarcadianhood". A cionstrue- tive uphuilding is a necessity, not so much a destructive morality whieh would tear down, and rightly so, but yet builds nothing on the site of ruins. I sincerely bope that there will be a "long pull, and a strong pull and pull together" so that before another Win- ter season the town will haye. reason to be proud of a well.equppecl and up- to.date skating rink.
