GOOD CONGREGATIONS AT
ONTARIO ST, CHURCH
Last Sabbath the sermons of
Rev. S. 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

on i which he said he

well served in the past by good

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.

of others first but he has a rich re-
ward in so doing. His influence is

congregation appreciated Me. Foster's
kindness in once 'more giving them

"0 1 God of Bethel, by whose hand
Thy people still are fed'!
Who through this Weary pilgrimage

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
