NEWS FROM THE DIFFERENT
CHURCHES
Last Sunday Morning Pastor War-
dell spoke on the' subject, "Much
Land to be possessed." He 'said that
although the children of .Israel had
crossed over: the Jordan into the pro-
mised land yet they did not go in and
drive the enemy out as commandedby
the. Lord, :This is a picture of the is av-
erage Christian today who in Chri-
st,
st, and yet has settled down with the
things of the worldinstead of explor-
ing the heighth and depth and length
and breadth of God's love in Christ,
He urged .upon all his hearers to go
in and possess the land, so that they
would have a full. reward. "When
This Passing World is done; When
has,' sunk yon glaring sun, 'When we
stand with ' Christ in, Glory; looking
o'er life's finished story, Then, Lord
shall I fully know, Not till then how
much I owe, When I stand before
the throne, dressed in beauty not my'
own, When I see Thee as Thou art,
Love Thee with unsinning heart,.
Then, Lord, shall I fully know, Not
till then how much I owe."

Both services in theWingharn Unit-
ed Church were taken by Rev. Mr.
Maliaffy of Orangeville, . who delight-
ed his hearers with, two excellent
sermons. In the morning, the lesson
read was the i8th Psalm and the text.
was taken from the 35th verse, "Thy
Gentleness hath made me Great." The
speaker told of David the writer of
this Psalm, a great man of the Bi-
ble, great in Military affairs, as a po-
et, as a statesman, as seer, and giv-
ing all the' credit to the gentleness
and kindness of God's treatment of
him. The lesson was then given, of
how greater things can be drawn out
of any Person by being dealt kindly
with than by harsh measures. Ex-
amples were taken from the life . of
Jesus, how he took lowly, uneducat-
ed people ,and by his gentleness of
spirit and sympathy 'remade of them

Under this scheme individual farmers
