"The essential test of a school's ef-
ficieney,' said the inspector, eels not.
the number of pupils who passa cer-
tain promotion: examination; but rath
er`; the type .of citizens which the
school produces; This educational:
viewpoint'requires the teaching of
such virtues as truthfulness, honesty
and courtesy, and such practices as
industry, regularity and ' thrift, ; as
well as such academic subjects as ar-
ithmetic, grammar and history. These
virtues and practices are'learned in
;only one way. The child learns to do
by doing.- -The,Penny-Bank provides
the facilities to, enable the thoughtful
teacher to. teach thrift practically.

Ontario. street church has always-

had a fine ohoir, one of •the contri-
buting reasons being that the Gibbings'
family, a very musical family, have
always taken an active interest in it.,

tionlatter having occupied thisp
tion for the past thirty-five years.
For some time two of 84i, Gibbings'
sisters, Mrs. (Dr.) Kay and lays, J.
W. Treleaven, acted -as organist each
only giving up the position on leav-
ing town.. Other organists were: Mrs.
E. G. Courtiee, Mrs, J. Miller, Mrs,
Latorneli and the present organist,
Mks. E. Wendorf. The members of
the choir have always taken a keen
interest itt their work and have been
singularly loyal, no doubt the influ-
ence of their leader being ay strong in-
centive. At present and for some
Years. Mr. Gibbings, his wife and his
son and daughter are all members of
the choir.
The Ontario: street congregation
are keenly interested in missions and
they have, .perhaps, more reason than
many congregations as there are at
the present time two. representatives
from the congregation in the foreign
field, Miss Sybil Courtiee in Japan
and Rev, Kenneth Beaton in West'
China.
In Jupe 1925' this church, with
all the churches of Canadian Method-
ism, went into union with the. Pres-
byterian and Congregational church-
es, forming' the United Chureh of
Canada and.its several departments"
are well • organized, and functioning
strongly.
