Very successful anniversary ser- vices were held in this church on Sunday, when the Rev. Dr. -D. C. Mac- Gregor of St. Andrew's United ,church London, was the special minister for the day, preaching morning and ev- ening and addressing the Sunday school in the afternoon. Good congregations were present on each occasion, in the evening the service in the Ontario street church being withdrawn, when many came down to worship with the sister'con- gregation, and the Rev, F, G. Farrill, pastor, assisted in the service. The pastor of the chuerh, Rev. C. W. De- Witt Cosens, was in charge of both services. The church choir, under the direc- tion of Mrs. Morgan Agnew, leader and organist, rendered special music at each service. In the morning an anthem was given, Miss Viola Fraser taking a solo part, and Mrs. (Dr.) Hearn sang a solo. In the evening the choir on entering sang an an- them, Mrs. Hearn taking a solo part. Mrs. Hearn and Mr. J. C. Cooper rendered a duet in excellent voice be- fore the sermon and afterwards Mrs. C. E. Dougan contributed a charm- ing solo. Dr. MacGregor chose as his morn- ing sublet the high calling of the Church and of the individual church member to proclaim Christ, to wit- ness for.Himfrom a heart in which Hee held sway. An intellectual know, ledge is not sufficient, a personal ex: perience of ,the saving power of Christ is necssary, then the Church will be effective. Tn the evening he spoke on the Fatherhood ef God. He referred to the fact that Christ came to teach to the world just that, the fact that God loved men as a father loves his chil- dren. In the old testament God is referred to but seven times as Father and from the first to the last no i*di, vidual in the old testament ever res fers to God as father. 13 u Christ taught his disciples - to pray "Ont Father which art in heaven," That was his message to the world, - the fact that' God the Father loved it. Dr. MacGregor makes no eonskious effort after eloquence, his language is simple and his manner earnest, and he grips the attention of his hearers and holds it to the end. His die, courses were inspiring and comfort. ing. He would be warmly welcomed should he ever find opportunity to a• gain pay a -Visit to Clinton. ' The church was very handsomely decorated with the season's flowers for the occasion. The congregation respondedvery generously to the request for a good thankoffering.

Jefferson, principal of the Public school, gave a very in- teresting address on 'the English lan- guage, basing his remarks on Shakes- peare. 'He also read several portions from the "Merehant of Venice:", The meeting closed with God ' Save the King.
