Dear Mr. MrDanald.—The mem- bers of Egmondwill'e congregation here assembled, together with many who are u.naible to be present, wish to convey their great appreciation of you and their sincere regret atyour leaving their midst. You have en- deared yourself to our congregation and contsmauti'ty through your Chris-= tian into , it a citizenship r and c t zeuahi an b ' g Y. p d y your unimpeachable goodness of char- acter. -No minister could have enter- ed more fully and in a more belly C'hris'tian spirit into the life and ac- tivities of a congregation than you: have done. It seems fitting at this juncture to express the sympathetic feeling of cherished respect for Mrs.; McDonald, who has 'been a most en- thusiastic worker in everything__Per- taining to the welfare of the congre- gation, especially in connection with the 'Women's Missionary Society as, its President, the Neil Shaw Auxili- ary and the Mission Band, and also your famine as active members of the church and all other good -will work entered into by the younger members. Your removal ,from us, causes a feeling much. deeper and stronger than that of regret, it is a feeling of profound sorrolw, As we are albout to. part the congregation desire to ex- press their good -will and respect and their best wishes to you and your,s, in the quotation from Tennyson, "God bless thee with blessings beyond hope or thought, with blessings which ne wean can find." We ask you to ac- cept this purse and this bougue't as tokens of appreciation of the Chris- tian work accomplished daring your pastoral terns in Egmondville.

West Ontario has been visited by a generous share of 'Canada's outstand- ing pub{ie men during the .past week, which may indicate an early election, or again it may not, A Liberal de- nt'oastration was staged at Grand Bend on Wednesday, which was ads dressed by 'Cabinet Ministers in the Dominion 'Government: On Thursday Iron.

They are saying I am a pessimist (referring to speeches at Grand Bend the previous day) so h t atou willntt'Li . y 0 think about they are doing. I ask them tow tell you why 67 cents of every dollar we send 'out goes to the United States? Let ':them answer that." Referring to the United States tariff, Mr. Bennett said that they hid lot raised theft tariffs through any ill will toward Canada. 'Phe American 'Congress was s 1egulatin g far the people. of e United ft States alone. What Canada wants r5 a Parliament that •t'hinlcs of Canadians. We preach no doctrineef d1 will, but the 'basis of respect for others ,comes from a basis Of self- reipcct. I am ready for the issue and so are the Caniadian pe'-iple, and they are going to condemn this administra- tion which does nothing except 'lower the tolls to make it easier for Am- ericans to steal our market and to dia possess us of 'our heritage." It is evident that Mr, Bennett be- lieves, that the special Providence 'Which takes care of drunken men' and little children is also taking care of Canada. Asking w'hy' the Liberal ministers talk about "British Prefer- ence now, when they let Parliament rise without doing anything, Mr. Ben- nett mentioned the trade treaties ne- gotiated between Canada and the va- rious .countries of the world :and said he indicted the ministers as men unfit to make treaties for Canada, without sufficient vision or jodigment for the work, citing the, New Zealand and Australian affairs as e^c..mpies. There ..was do pessimism in his ntiesion, said \4r: IBennett, but it was childish not to look to the future; better , to. ding nose and ,prevent, rattier than cure. The speeches it this district the past' week would indicate that the next ;Dominion election will be fought: on the'tariff ifuenti'bn. For years "the Conservative Party has borne the label of "Protectionist" and the Li- beral Party "Free Trade." ,Broadly speaking `protectionist," represents the buy -at-home principle, as ex- cellent for a nation as for a commun- ity. It is a knotty question and: one which leaves a wide ecope for catchy election cries againstit, yet the 'step taken by the United States in this :dir- ection'will compel Canada, to take ac- tion necessary to offset the effects. So finely b,atlainced is the interdependence of the various groups which make ep a nation, tnot or the .citizens in a commun- ity,that there is a Very elusive line distinguishing those things which are procnralble and those which are not procurable at home.
