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.

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,

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

its advantages carefully before enlist-
ing vrith any other company.
