Mr. Lane, welcarriing those .present, spoke of the reason for gathering to- gether, stating, that the various parts of the Presbyterian Church in Canada united. on June 15, 1875, at a great aneetnng in Montreal. Rev. W. A. Young, addressing the congregation, spoke as. .follows: To -day we celebrate the 60th anni- versary of the formation of the Pres- -yberian Church in Canada — the Diamond Jubilee of our church. These CO years have seen many changes in this Canada of ours. Institutions have •arisen and passed away; a generation of Canadians has come and gone; a new generation has ,brought new cus- toms and ,new manners, and to -day we rejoice with all our 'hearts that, amid the change and- decay of many things., the church of our fathers re- -rains. The years have not been years of. unbroken pleasantness and peace. The old kirk has passed through trou'biess -times. She has shared in the growing pains of a young and rapidly expanding nation. Foes from within and foes from wit7i- but have threatened her Life. She has passed through the. hitter fires of STANLEY Robert M.

The greatest economic depression in history has added great hardships to aii already grieVaus load. - But we are here this afternoon to testify that the life that flows through the veins of the Presbyterian Church. has' lost none of its vigor. Yes, it pulsates with a new vitality 'as we stand on the threshold of a new era of civilization. Let us consider .first the heritage of 'the past: "Thou shalt rememiber all the weal which the Lord thy God lead thee," and then let us turn our faces toward the future and catch, the challenge of the days; to come. I wish that there were time to tell of the early days of aur church. One hesitate* to attempt to give an ade- quate historical survey of Presbyter- ianism in :Canada.. It dates from the earliest British settlement—approxi- mately 185 years ago. Scottish set- tlers came to Nova -Scotia and brought their church with them.' They form- ed a .conyanunilty on 'the rocky hills. of Pictou and imagined themselves back in the highlands and gave the new land a suitable name -Nova Scotia. The first Presbytery organized in 'Canada was the Preslbytery of Truro, 1786. Swiftly as the settlement of the new landproceeded the Presbyter- ian church went with the, people. From east to Quebec, Montreal, Upper Can- ada, the Red River Settlement, where - ever the pioneers went, the Presby- terian Church is with them, and we are assured that the help of the church was a large factor in the de- velopment of the new land', and the comforting and strengthening of men and women in those hard lonely days. In 1830, a little over 100 years ago, there 'Were 15 ministers from Lake Huron and Lake St. Clair to the Ot- tawa river—a "distance of about 500 miles. We can well imagine the hard- ships. that those early men endured. They ministered to their own congre- gations but their responsibility in- cluded the whole countryside for miles around. Rev. Wm. Proudfoot and Rev.' Thos. Christie in the year 1833, were commissioned to make a survey of the western;a.part of 'On- tario'. Their report on Goderich is interesting. This is it in part: "The place (Goderich) is very' destitute of religious advantages and according to report the population is 'careless and dissipated. We have not been able till of late bo send them any supply. The only place that can be had for warship is the school house. The 'Canada Company gene us two town lots and. promised $100 to help huild a church, It is to be hoped that God will answer our prayers in blessing His own ordinances when they shall be established here." We have only to look around us to see how wonderfully their prayers were answered. So it was in every place. God did 'bless the work of our church in a marvellous way. The settlers did' their part, and sup- ported them loyally', and well. It is universally true that wherever even a few Presbyterians are to be found there will be a kirk. And so little churches rose up all over the land, and services were held regularly ev- en in the absence of a minister, One minister in Eastern Ontario reported that he had a regular audience of 400 people and 500 when the sleighing was: good. Show me the minister in one of our large cities in these automobile days who would not re- joice to speak to so many every Sun- day. But I must get on. As the church grew, i]; grew into different sections, each new synod or Presbytery becom- ing an independent unit. Some were connected with -the mother church in Scotland'. Others were not, Gradu- ally adjacent .Presbyteries united to form Synods, and in the year 1s'f5' there were four of these Synods. 1, The .Synod of the Lower Prov- inces; 2. The Synod of the Maritime Provinces in connection with the Church of Scotland; 3. The Synod of the Canada Presbyterian Church; 4. The Synod of the Canada Presbyter- ian . Church in connection with they, church of Scotland. ' It was generally felt that the time had come for the Presbyterian popu- lation of Canada to come together under one general assembly.

Fathers and 'br.ethrepp, our 'Presbyterian church is faded with the greatest opportunity and at the ,same time the greatest peril sinee these Memorable days, It is. true that aur ehureb weathered the storm in e wonderftd • way in these hard years. We. have come through the :d'epressi'on as well as any church. And now we stand on the threshold of a new era which -presents a ,tre- mendous challenge to, every Presby- terian. Men are looking to the church as never before for spiritual leadership and :guidande. The time has gone when any church can suc- ceed by ;presenting to the people (var- ious forms of entertainment in the name of religion. '(Men have realized at last that they lcann'ot lively bread alone, that materialism is not en- ough, 'and the church is being forced back at 'last to its own 'business.. Men, weary, ,distracted, need desperately to hear the :good news of the kingdom, and we, of the church, must by our daily lives, as well as by our words, 1•ead them into a saving knowledge 'of Him, who is able to give them newness eof life, radiance and peace, Dr. Stanley Jones tells of a city in ancient days situate on a hill with palaces and temples. But in later days the city moved a few miles a- way down the plain. If you go to the hill, you will .see ragged sentinels standing with rusty swords before einp'ty' palaces and priests. sacrificing goats before altars in' deserted tem- ples. The city has moved on, and left the church standing before de- serted altars offering up a meaning- less sacrifice, Down there in the city 'where the throbbing problems of life and religion is out of touch high and dry. It is a terrible warn- ing ,.to our church - and to every chinch. We may be ,guarding ernpt- ine.ss and sacrificing on dead altars while the centre of the battle moves on. We are living in momentous days—days of tremendous impor- tance., It is a hard day, presenting a challenge and a marvellous ,oppor- tunity. It is unthinkable that our church should fail in this time , of crisis. Let the people of our church arouse themselves and face the dawn, clothed in the armour of light. Our task in the final analysis is a spiri- tual one. In a more since, more real relationship of the people to the liv. ing God through Jesus Cliiist aur Lord lies the solution of our every problem. If our people, and minis- ters too, were spiritually alive, we would have no more deficits in the carrying out of the d'ost "comm,and:,.of Jesus, no more delicate situations in churches, and very few empty pews. Dearly beloved, let all who are true and loyal Presbyterians enter into the new spirit of this new day, liv- ing in ''duce, working in faith, follow- ing in the footsteps of Him who ca.ine not to be ministered unto, but to min- ister. - I believe that our church is on the verge of a great spiritual awakening. God grant that I am right. Go home to your own churches and work for it for it. Go home and put first thin first—the hardest thing there is to do in life, and God' who is waiting to give us newness of life, will solve our problems and redeem us with a baptism of fire from on high." MANLEY A gloom was cast over our b- last Saturday when it was learned that Mr. Patrick McLaughlin had. passed to his eternal reward at the age of 74 years. lisle had been pro- gressing nicely for two weeks after his accident, when suddenly compli- cations set in, and in spite of medi- cal aid nothing could be done for him. He was the last surviiving m'emIber of a family of two. brothers and five sisters. He was married 38 years ago to Catherine Connolly, of Logan, and his widow survives, and also three sons, Peter of McKillop, Michael of Hibbert, and Joe at'•home, and one daughter, Maggie Ellie, at home.
