GQDHRIO73 NIETALiTMOT DISTRIGP. 4 The following is a condensed report of the Convention held In Ontario St. Methodist. church, Clinton, on Jan. 22nd and 23rd. That the work of Sun- day School* and Epworth Leagues holds an important position in the minds of the people may be judged by the large attendance of ministers, del- egates and others at this convention. Only two ministers belonging to the Goderich District, were absent, oue thruught illness, the other on account of special work at home. The sub- jects under consideration were ably dealt with, and in general heartily discussed. The sessions on Wednes- day were devoted to the consideration of Sunday School matters. On Thurs- day 'Epworth League Subjects were disposed of. Addresses and discussions ate combined for convenience. FIRST SESSION The first session on Wednesday af- ternoon was opened with a prayer and praise service, which lasted for one bout; it was led by Rev. J. W. Holmes, chairrnanlof the district. Mr Million, of Goderich, introduced the subject. "The agency of the teacher in leading to decision for Christ and church mem- bership." Over 32,000 teachers and officers teaching and training over 253,000 scholars in the Sabbath Schools of the Methodist church must have a great influence on the future of this country, as this army is to fill the po- sitions of importance in both church and state. They will he the authors of books, editors of papers, preachers, teachers and committees to prepare S. S. lessons. How important then that in their youth they should be trained aright. S. S. conventions, through the delegates, have a great, influence on the community; teachers have greateradvanteges in leading children to conversion than the ministers, as they have so few to deal with and are more constantly in touch with them. Early in the week the faithful teacher should begin the preparation of the les- son for the next Sunday; first, by seek- ing God's blessing on the study of the work assigned and then using all the helps that he can get bold of, but re- lying on the Bible more than any of the others. He should go to the elites in a prayerful spirit and teach faith- fully and practically, applying the truth of the lesson to every individual member of the class. 'Visiting the scholars and praying with and for thein will have a strung tendency to lead them to Christ. When convert- ed they should become tnembers of some live chut ch, as outside of that they areaptto stay.Teachers shouldill in all ways let their scholars know that their first, their most intense and earnest desire is for their salvation. Converted scholars should work to save their classmates. Rev. S. J. Edmunds, of Dungannon, being absent his subject, "The Agency of the Holy Spirit in leading to de- cisiou for Christ, and church member- ship," was discussed by those present. We should honor the Holy Spit it in all our work. The power of the Spirit comes, not through the intellect, but in answer to faithful 'mayor. The teach- er,,inspired by the Holy Spirit .and whole -hearted in his work is sure of success. God's holy Spirit shining in his word and applying its truths to the heat• is the strongest agency that, exists, in winning souls to Christ. . Rev. W. J. Ford, of Clinton, in dis' cussing "Horne Studies of the lesson," narned several works useful to the teacher, but laid special Emphasis on the use of the Bible. A thorough knotvledge of the lesson is essential to present the best thoughts that it con- tatins. Thesuhject assigned for Messrs. Ford of Clinton and Bright of Seaforth were combined for discussion, the lat- ter gentleman being absent. The Holy Spirit will not honor laziness, slovenli- ness or carelessness on the part of the teacher, and these habits were heartily condemned. Parents are not relieved of their responsibility by the S. S. teaeher, and should when not able to attend S. S. themselves, take time to study the lesson with their children. EVENING SESSION. A halt hour song set vice was follow- ed by the discussion of "Business Methods as applied to S. S. Work," introdlrced by Rev. 5. I3ond, of Sea - forth. The church should use in the school the best workers available, and should honor and encourage them by supplying them with the hest room and apparatus necessary to success- fuhy conduct the work of the school. The primary object of S. S. work being the conversion of the scholars, the teacher should teach the doctrines, facts, principles, morals, precepts, and promises contained in the .Bible, and after conversion they should be edu- cated in such a way as to make gond citizens. Teachers should show their interest by regularity and punctuality of attendant. A person t.horougly inte- rested in work for Christ will grow to like the work and become rnoreChrist- like. We as christians must he volun- tary workers for Christ. An interesting, practical, and point- ed address on "The Bible and how to handle it." was given by Rev. A. C, Crews, Gen. Sec. of S. S. and E. l.. The Bible, the teacher's text hook, is an infallible guide revealing the will of God and containing a message from Hirn. It was written by different in- spired men, at different periods, in different countries, and in different languages yet contains no contradic- tions. Success or failure in S. S. work depends largely on the use of the Bible by the teachers. Read the Bible at any time but more especially when the mind is most capable of understanding and appreciating the truths it con- tains. Those who keep the Bible always at hand and study it as for hidden treasure will not be disappoint t ed. All should study the Bible dili- gently and critically hut not in a critic- izing spirit. We should study the books of the Bible to find the plan God had in their inspiration, and study the verses paricularly to learn the truths they contain. The Bible is the best literary work extant. The questions in the question drawer were answered by Rev. S. Bond of Seaforth. WEDNESDAY The sunrise prayer meeting, led by Rev. J. Edge, was well attended, and was a season of great spiritual bene- fit to those who made it a point to be present. The forenoon session was opened with a song service, of ter which May or Holmes gave his address on "Re- latlonzhtp between the Epworth Liaa- gue and the senior members of the church." The members of the Lea- tie recognize the fact that a relationship should, mist between them and the church, bin generslly confine their ef- forts to one part of church work, the promotion of spiritual work among the young people. The different organi- zations of the church working togeth- er with a common object in view are a great power for good. The old are not in touch with the young, as they are wore advanced in s iritnal life, hitt they are in touch and sympathy a.s they have passed along the road where tbe young are now havelling, and can give them tbe benefit of their experience and advice. Members of the League should attend the general prayer meetings as well as those of the League. Metnhers of the Quattei•ly board should be made ex -officio mem- bers of the Epworth League to bridge over the seeming chasm between the church and the League. Miss S. Acheson's address on "For what purposes should the League raise money?" was well received. She emphasized strongly the idea the League should raise no stoney except to pay its own running expenses. The League was never organized as a money -making society, butsimply and solely to do spiritual work. Members of the League should, as members of the chinch, support the funds of the church, but the money should be paid directly into the fund, not pass through the League. Verbal reports of the different Leagues in the district were given showingfavorable progress in that part of te church work. "The Epworth League readingcourse, how can we snake the best use of it?' was the subject introduced by Rev. G. W. Andrews, B. A., of I3olmesville. The reading course is about the best for the purpose that ran be outained, but the example of some parents in providing light readingt influence of newspapers and books found in the hotnes, and even in the S. 5. libraries, has'a tendency to create in the minds of the young a taste for light litera- ture. To overcome this taste and sup- ply healthy reading is the object aimed at in providing the E. L. reading course. It can be used by ministers making it their study and persuading the church members to join with them. "Holiness in heat t and life" was the subject of a paper read by Rev. W. W. Leach. Holiness is our spiritual life and strength, and therefore is of very much importance. Holiness is purity, moral goodness, the renewal of the soul in the image of God, in whose im- age it was created—the keeping of the commandments, having the mind of God, and being separated from sin. The heart, the fountain of life, should be pure and holy that the thoughts, words and actions should be pure and holy. Holiness is obtained by faith in Christ and obedience to God. Holiness is touch needed; all Christians may en- ljoy. it and show it in their lives. By iving holy lives we prosper• spiritually and make religion attractive and de- sitvtble,and living for God will be much easier. Rev. F Swann introduced the sub- ject, " The League and the boys." The boys, the hope of the church and coun- try, should be saved early in life, and interested in what is good, that they nrty be fitted for a noble and useful manhood. In the boys are the germs of a power that, if rightfully directed, will in after years prove a blessing to the church, the comrunity and the world. Inspire the boys with the know- ledge that there is a God who cares for theirs, who wants them and their whole lives, to whom they are responsible;and, whom they should reverence. Teach the boys to study the Bible, to be true, to be honest, and to feel that what, is worth doing is worth doing well. Get them early interested in Christian work, Every duty performed trom a right motive is a step heavenward. Keep the boys off the streets. Teach them that they can have n good time and enjoy their games and still b.s Christians. Induce the boys to take Christ as their example and live pure, noble, upright and good lives. We must walk and talk, yes and live with God to succeed in the great work of winning and keeping the boys. When the pastor visits the homes call in the boys that they may be present at the time of devotional exercises. Rev. A. C. Crews took the platform and answered many questions from those in the congregation. Social en- tertainments might be held about once in two months. He would advise hav- ing the members pay initiation fees, and monthly or quarterly does. If members of the church join the league it should be as active not as associate members, Mr Crews would advise the literary committee of every league to try to increase the circulation of the Christian Guardian. The election of officers for the Dis- trict Convention resulted as follows :— Honorary president—the chair.nan of the district. President—Mayor Holmes, Clinton. let vice pres.—J. 11, Million, Goderich. 2nd " " D. W. Bright, Seaforth. 3rd " " Rev. G. W. Andrews, Holmesville. 4th " " Miss WilsonHensall. Washington, " " Miss M. Clinton. Secretary— Miss S. Acheson. Goderich. Treasurer—Mrs H. Ivison, Kippen. Conference Representative — Rev. J. Edge, Goderich. The pledee and church loyalty was the subject assigned to Rev, J. Edge. Considering the number who have taken the pledge it will appear that a large number ar•e handed together for Christian work. Without loyalty to the pastor and the church the league cannot. expect to be successful. We must be loyal to the rules, doctrines and connectional interests and funds of the church. Be loyal to the worsbipof the church, the class and prayer meet- ings and the Sunday school. A bond of union should exist between the members of the church. We should be loyal to our country, our convention and the literature of the church. EVENING SESSION. The evening session was opened with a Song Service, after which Rev. E, Olivant read a paper on the subject of "Worship in Song and Spirituality in our music. Music has always been associated with religious worship. It had the divine sanction and was ac- ceptable to God. Singing was com- mended by Jesus and the apostles by precept and example. Since then the onward march of religion has been accompanied by song. Hymns should be spiritual and scriptural and should promote reverence. The Gospel sung without the infiuenee of the Holy Spirit can only reach the emotional nature. Rev. A. 0. Orewe then discussed The Epworth League, "Its Aaims and Methods." 'rile Epworth League though 9 iyears old has 1,500,000 mem- bers, but et bas reten for the exercise of the tlrlent of a great many more, Look up Means prayer, lift up means devotion. Devotion without prayer will soon develope into fanat icism. The liquor traffic has a new and powerful enemy to tight against. The literary department aims at the intellectual developernent, and can be made the instrument in Clod's hands of doing much good in denouncing sensational fiction, and substitutingfor it good, elevating literature. e social de- partment is important and so far as it cultivates sociability will increase the membership of the League. Cheerfulness is an influence that should be used for the purpose of winning souls. The Epworth League has come to stay, it, is progressing and will nev- er stop its efforts in working for the salvation of the young and in raising them from death in sin to life in Christ. A resolnti'tn was passed authorizing the Executive eommirtee to arrange the time and place of the next annual meeting and to prepare a program for it. After a number of votes of thanks the convention closed its first meeting with the singing of the National An- them and the pronouncing of the benediction. A. P. SHNPPEttn, Sec. of Convention.

Seaforth. ANNUAL ME1 TING. —The annual meeting of the hoard of directors of the McKillop Mutual Fire Insurance Company was held in Seaforth with a full attendance. From the auditprs' report we glean the following facts and figures : Total number of policies in force is 1021 ; total amount of pro- perty insured, $2,753,020. Increase in number of policies over 1804 was 43. Number of policies taken during 1895 was 495, and of insurance taken 1895 was $884,085; increase of insurance over 1894 was $44,875, Amount of pre- mium notes taken $90,130.91 ; amount of premium notes taken 1895 was $23,- 217.81. Increase of premium notes over 1894, $642. Receipts during 1895, $10.005.80; expenditure, $9,394.45. As- sets, $78,529.60; Liabilities, $254; Net assets, $78,207.60. The auditors, Ylessrs. George Murdie and Jno. C. Morrison, certified to having examined the assess- ment rates, receipts and expenditure and compared vouchers and found all correct, and the hooks well kept and in first class condition. The above statement shows that this old reliable fire insurance company, unlike most companies. instead of receding contin- nes to advance and under the same en- ergetic and .judicious management we predict for it another successful year. Farmers who have not yet taken out a policy in the McKillop Mutual Fire Insurance Company should look into its advantages carefully before enlist- ing vrith any other company.
