THE NORTH SIDE UNITED CHURCH With great simplicity, yet with impressive solemnity the United cherch in Seaforth was inaugurated on 'Sunday 'morning. By Act of Parliament,the 10th of June was set apart for union 'of the Presbyterian, Methodist a n d Congregational churches, and at the 'meetin'g on Wed- nesday en 'Toronto' kation was con- summated. Hence on Sunday the old order 'had passed away and the North Side church became the United church 'congregation. 'ilhe,edifice was crowded, The service began with the Doxology and after prayer, :the Ota Hundred was heartily sung, Part df Psalm 113 was reit responsively and two ;selections. :front Ephesians 13 were read by the pastor. 'The pastor then came •down from the ;platfornt to tete" floor and after a few words of 'felicitation, called the representa- tive men and women of the non- concurring and Methodist churches to the front. These consisted of those who (held chief official positions. as follows: W. H. Trethewey, 'recording stew- ard, representing Official Board; Thoas Grieve,'representing the ses- sion.m Dr. 'Harburn and John Finlayson, c'hurc'h treasurers. F. S. Savage and J. C. Laing, rep- resenting 'the Sunday, schools. Mrs. J. B. Thompson and Mrs. Jno, Consitt, •representing the Ladies' 'Aids, :Mrs. Irwin and Mrs. R. Archibald, and Mrs. James Scott, representing the W.M. Societies, Ross Savauge, representing the Ep- worth League; iaFiss M. O. Somer- ville, the Barbara Kirkman society; Mrs. J. I. Johnston; Junior League; \lis. J.:Mcln'tosh,'Mission 'Band. The roll of :the Methodist .church members was 'handed by the Record- ing Steward, Mr, W. H. Trethewey to Mr, J, Grieve, representing the ses- sions of the non-conctir•ring 'church and Mr, Grieve did the ,same .with the roll of members of his church to .Mr, Trethewey. This consisted of 86 members. Three others were receiv- ed by transfer cards. After singing "Blest 'be 'the tie that 'hinds," the officials welcomed each other into the United church. The pastor then gale a. short address, telling of :the efforts made duping the past 20 years, naw iso happi'l7` ended in the United Church p1' Canada, He said he 'was sure they would be broad enough not to 'allow any .bit - i on -concurring the t against teritess church, many of•whom were quite conscientious, even if mistaken, and he hoped all would .treat them with Christian courtesy. For the present they would do well to speak of them by 'the name :they had themselves adopted, The Non-concurring Church,. until such time as illy Act of Parlia- ment, they had selected :their name, He felt that with .the evangelism of the Methodist church combined with the .faith and loyalty of the elders of the Presbyterian church, the United church could do a great work •'for. God. Miss Lillian Wankel and Miss Beth Willis rendered in splendid voice solos in the anthem. The hearty congregational singing, led by the choir, 'was a 'very .pleasing ,feature -of the 'service. After the singing a'f the hymn,, "O God of Bethel" the service closed With the benedictiohi- and the United church became a reality in Seaforth. L. CLIFFORD. FREEMAN.

Reid on defense and Kerslake in goat for Hugons were kept fairly busy at times and both played their positions well.
