It would be hard to find a better posted man, as is shown every fall, as be bas more opportunities" of judging at fall fairs than he can at- tend to, and every year that Huron County has had an exhibit at the 'On- tario Fruit Growers' Assaciation,,-To• ionto, he has been in, charge of it, This year he was again .appointed, to the same position.

J. /Olin's pastorate . were given in Ontario Street Methodist church and made a most favorable impression, and are taken as ' an in. dication of the spiritual feed to he supplied during the Coming term. A "service whole salted Fellowship ce was e i conducted in the Sabbath School room by the pastorprior to the public ser- vice, many tak'na part, Despite the intense heat, a large ,and attentive congregation assembled'- at 11 a. m., and after the Doxology and invocation the excellent choir lead in the singing of Charles Wesley's fine old hymn, "01 Worship the King." i . n which the audience joined with a heartiness that was refreshing. Following a fervent prayer, Mr.. R. Foster, of . Toronto, sang in good voice "01 God of Heaven." A portion of the fish chap- ter of St. John's Gospel was read and the new pastor gave expression to a few tinoely thoughts relative to his to Olinu n on i which he said he comingt was glad for the apportunet ofgreet- ing the congregation. Theyhad been well served in the past by good pastors and he hoped to follow in the good old way and asked for the same loyal support accorded his predecessors. Although in the ministrfor 83 years THE NEW PASTOR. REV. S. J. ALLIN. various. walke of life, yet the call comes for perfection and an Ideal life and was never needed more than to- day. Abraham was a useful man, sought to make his life a blessing to others by whole hearted helpfulness. 1 Wherever be was he built' an altar, lie was charitable, although in the twilight he gave one.tenth to tbeLord and the rule still holds good that: what we give to God is what we save; thereby lay up treasure in Heaven. Abraham had consideration for others, was not always looking out for No. 1, His helping kis nephew, Lot. by strategy proved how willing he was to cultivate regard for others. Singular may be the man who thinks of others first but he has a rich re- ward in so doing. His influence is felt d hisfid li God d hon red, Christian worth counts and our is measured by our service that finally wins the ilandit, "Well Done." We need a Saviour and there must be a deep and abiding conscious nese of the need Be only can supply.

The congregation appreciated Me. Foster's kindness in once 'more giving them the opportunity of hearing hint. "0 1 God of Bethel, by whose hand Thy people still are fed'! Who through this Weary pilgrimage Hast all our fathers led," was the cohcluding hymn and the congregation was dismissed looking hopefully and expectantly to a pas- torate rich in the good things of God's favor. . In the evening Rev. Mr, Algin spoke on "Rev, 21-27." The reverend gentleman possesses a mellow voice, uses choice English and his enunciation is clear. He wears well wherever, he has been and doer faithful, earnest works especially along spiritual lines, he never entered the, pulpit without trembling over the greatness: of the work and his responsibility, 10 cow- ing to Ontario Street congregation his chief desire, in happy union with them, was to forward the Kingdom of Jesus Christ. Wherever his lot was cast he endeavored to -feel at home and hoped ' to work in hearty co- operation with them, There 15 no success without prayer and, his daily practice was to carry his people to the throne of Grace fox a spiritual up- lift. and Let a 'ted prayer be o f e a u y the' Master of assemblies will be with Us, We commend ourselves to you and desire..that our united work be done with the same hope of reward as bee marked your past Inatory, Did not feel a stranger in thee fine old County of Huron as he had been stat-.
