The 'Brunels Post last week had
the following littlestory setting
forth the diffculties experienced
getting home : from Toronto. The
good old C.N.R. waited however, and
all was well:
"Mrs. J. L. Kerr was able to
return Irome from Wellesley Hospi-
tal, Toronto, after spending two
months and a half there, and under-
going two operations. And it was
more by good management' of the
C. N. R. officials than the taxi
driver that we got home that nights
After missing the train 'at the Union
station, the train waS ordered to
wait atWestToronto station for us
to get there and the taxi driver
landed us in traffic and all the: stop
signals and then droveusto Park-
dale station, remarking that this
was Parkdale Wiest Toronto. What
we said would note -look - well in
print and the "driver" admitted he
didn't know - where West- Toronto
station was, ser we directed lrini to
that important spot in West Toronto,
where passengers and train crew
were patiently awaiting. our arrival.
With all jhe excitement and the ride.
home, Mrs. Kerr is feeling the
effects at present, but, with the
nurse's care will improve, Wb won't
mention the taxi company, but we
do think for the sake of passenegrs
that they should know the'oity., i or
in fact the 'driver didn't know how
to get into the hospital at the am-
bulance door. But we got ' home.
'and everybody was thankful,"

The annual meeting of the Bayfield
Branch of the Upper.- Canada -Bible
Society was held in St. Andrew's lint-
bed church on Sunday evening last.
Rev. R. M. Gale, the pastor and Rev,
F. U. Pauli, rector of, Trinity church,
took charge of the meeting, Rev Mr.
Paull gave a very interesting address
taking for his text: Peter 1:21, -from
which he spoke as follows:
"The Bible is the greatest of all
books. It is indeed a library and
contains many classes of literature,
It is the only book that is, or will be-
come, universal. It is the book .of
life, concerning this present life and
the Life of the world to come. The
Bible is the source of the Christian's
comfort, revealing God and Jests
Christ, man's Saviour and only hope.
It is also the br o1 truth, for it
contains the truth about God and all
truth that a Christian must know
and believe. The Bible is also •a
revelation, God's revelation of him-
self to the world, to his chosen peo-
ple first and through them to • the
rest of the world; and it reveals pian
himself as a seeker alter God,
Rightly, we believe the Bible is the in-
spired word of God. But it ought not
to be looked upon as a manual of
science or early world history. it
was never intended as such. The
Old Testament is 'the record of God's
first revelation of Himself to man.
The New Testament is the, record of
the completed revelation.
When, where and by whom the
booksof the Bible were written, we
cannot say in regard to everyone.
The Old Testament- was ' written in
Hebrew and Aramaic, but all - the
original writings are lost. Nothing
earlier than the 4th or 5th century
A.D. is known to exist. The New
Testament was written in Greek,.
although our Lord spoke Aramaic
No manuscript earlier than the 4th
century A.D. survives. • The earliest
are those in the Vatican, library,
Rome, St. Petersburg, the British
museum London, and Cambridge Uni-
versity, library.; Translations were
made in England as early as Icing
Alfred's time, but Wycliffe's Bible
1370 A.D., A.D., was the first great
English Bible, The authorized ver-
sion, that in ,general use, appeared in
1611, the week of 47 scholars of the
Church of Engalnd. The Bible in
use and accepted by nearly all Eng,
lisp -speaking; Protestants, is , the
prodded of the Church of England.
The only other 'Church that has pro-
duced an En gli le Bible is the Roman
t d rs 1
g
Catholic. Tho revised versiont gas
completed in 1895 after 15 years of
labour, by 50 eminent scholars in
England. Itis the most accurate' of
all versions of the BibIe.

Society was founded in 1804, and of
this, the Canadian Bible Society is
an auxiliary. The great work of the
Bible Society,• ever increasing, . was
dealt with by the speaker and our
obligation to support it. It is our
Christian duty to study God's word,
the word of life, which is "a light un-
to my feet and lamp unto my path."
Rev. Mr. Gale also spoke of the
great work being done by tate society
in spreading the Gospel to all lands,
The choir was assisted by members
of Trinity church choir and rendered
a splendid anthem, there was also a
quartette by Rev. R. M: Gale, Harold
Scotchnier, A. E. Erwin and Brown
Stewart. Mrs. R. Scotchnier presid-
