CONVENTION, Conelutied grain pogo 4. other pointe, Hard and fast rules can - mit be iormulated, eaolt roust think for himself, ' EIe said that in the country the continual visiting on Sunday con.. etitutee more Sabbath brea'kiug than ie done in the city. The Sabbath must not be considered merely a day of rest and idleness but a day of servioe. The question of Sabbath observance cannot he solved by the dootrines of our fath• ers, the Scriptures must be adapted to our modern conveniences. Mrs. Pentland then gave a oarefully prepared address, explanation of the lately inaugurated "Quiet I:Iour Circle " Each member of the Circle pledges to take I5 or 30 minutes daily for meditao tion with God or the study of the Bible. She believed that this should be introduced into the societies as it would do away with much of the soul poverty of the church. She pressed upon Christians the necessity of dealing with God as definitely as they deal with one auother. A little talk with Jesus It smooths the rugged road, It seems to help me onward When fainting'neath my load. This expresses the benefit of the Quiet hour•. Mrs. Pentland fully deserved the applause she gained. Iler full round voice and her practical common sense pleased all. Delegates were now asked to give verbal reports of the methods that were used in the county societies in the management of the missionary depart- ments. Various methods of collecting and distributing funds were described. The President, Rev. Mr. Henderson, now became the speaker of an "Open Parliament" to discuss "The Sooial Life of Young People." Mr. Hender- son carried on the discussion in an ap• propriately practical manner. "Religion,'' be said, "is not a hearse, but is a glorious addition to vitality." Christ never refused an invitation to a social gathering. A lively discussion was new engaged in as to it hat forms of amusement should be adopted to develop this social life. D'lr. G. F. Blair supported card -playing, and advanced some able arguments. Homo amusements were discussed also in this connection. Thoughts now ran to amusements in the church. Delegates gave the differs ent methods in operation in their socie- ties. Phe report of the Junior Superin- tendent, Miss Washington, who was not able to he present, was read by Mr. Cooper, She lamented the fact that ull societies had not responded to her "sudden passion for news." She had found great difficulty in organizing new junior societies, An.encouraging tone prevails in the existing societies. There are 12 junior societies with a member- ship of 050, $50 was expended in missions. Miss Lottie Wiggins, the Provincial Superintendent, sent her greetings through Miss Washington. "The Value of Junior Work" was the subject of an address by Mrs. P. J. Mac- kay who, in the all too short time that was allotted' to her, showed that she was not only accustomed to the platform but that she is a fervent, earnest and practical worker. I What? Many people do not know what J. E. is and yet, they condemn it. It is not an afterthought of the se -dor soc.ety. It is for the children and it should be a younger sister of the senior society. "Certainly it is not a spoiled younger sister." S. S's do not suffice for re- ligious training because the Juniors cannot work -in' the S. S. Soul- yin. ning also goes on in the J unior League. The children do this. If the children ore saved, the parents are sure to be. II How? i.e. How to forth, one. Through the senior society. Appoint the Junior Superintendent who must be patient and bright. The meetings must be short, bright and interesting. The interest of the parents must he gained. She pleaded with the dele- gates to go home and form societies. The bell should not have rung. On a motion of Mr. Cooper it was 'decided to convene in Exeter next year, June 20 and 21. The convention then adjourned to the Town Hall where the Junior Gar- den was given by 75 juniors of Wing - ham who have been training ruder the direction of Mr. Halsey Park and Miss Houghton. To put it mildly it was the hest part of the convention. Many people could,not gain admission to the hall. Masters Chapman, of Winghatn, and Stevenson, of Clinton, distinguished themselves as orators. EVENING. thi Le out bri sea the u 3u he we th ret th hat fut of th wo bat th pr ty fnv of WO he Te. pa Yo in tr fo Sib no for He Th for go tit vie The Presbyterian church was crowd- ed to its full capacity in the evening. The Revs. Henderson and Mason cons ducted the song service. Mr. Henderson then bade farewell to the Association but, in the absence of Mr. Pridham, the new President, he re- tained the chair for the evening. "Missionary Inspiration" was the subject of an address by Mr. Dickey, of Seaforth. Mr. Dickey's imposing ap- pearance and full, round voice assisted in making a deep impression on his audience. Mr. Dickey showed himself to be an ardent student of missions. 1;. Need of missions. 'Three-fourths of the world is still in heathendom, steeped in ignorance and superstition. None of these heathens are likely to develop a decent morality -because their religion is of the same standard as their morality. To remedy this state of aF fairs there is an army of 8000 marching against heathendom but there is need of greater forces. There is much mission- ary inspiration, but not enough money to utilize it. II. He then spoke of the progress of missions, 'There are over 8000 missionaries in the mission field ; tbere are over 40,000 native missionaries; 154 mis- sionary societies and 100 tongues speak the word of God. The progress should be great encouragement. III From the foundation of missions thore is also inspiration to bo received, The missionary enterprise is now being un, dertaken by the rich, the oultured and the educated. Philosophy, surgery, medicine and theology are all being studied to advance the missionary spirit. He spoke of the army of mis- sionaries wishing to go to the mission Heid. This army is waiting for pro- visions and transports. The basis .of l9iiSSions 18 to be found that, Christ died for all nations, and therefore the cause of foreign missions is bound up with the cause of Christianity. The audience was now favored with a sweet solo, entitled "0 Where is Heaven," by Miss Ida, Cline. Mr. A. T. Cooper, Olinton, now gave Amos. R. Wells, illustrated address entitled, "The Tenth Legion, which was delivered at the 10th Annual In • ternation Convention. The address is exphtnatory of a new movement being organized in the United States to give the tenth as prescribed by the Bible.

Convention from Hayfield Road C. E. Society. The following is from the Wynming Enterprise of rt recent date :- Tuesday, June 21st, marks an epoch in the history of Presbyterianism in Wyoming and the adjourning charge of South Plywpton. When the resig- nation of Rev. Geo. Cuthbertsun, so long the spiritual advisor of these con- gregations was reltict.autly 'accepted, it was felt that his place would be hard to fill, and the fact that the congrega- tion have united so unanimously in choosing his successor and that in so comparatively short a time, is accept- ed as a matter for sincere congratul- ation. The call extended to Rev. W. G. Richardson, B. A., in May was hearty and tmatiiinous, and in due time, when it was learned that he had accepted, the day of ordination and in- ductiou has been looked forward to 0t08t eagerly.

R. Drinnan, of Oatulachie, Moderator, presiding. Rev. R. Weir, B. A., of Martinsville, preached, his powerful discourse being listened to with wrapt attention. Rev. Hector Carrie, rf Thedf wd, addressed the minister, and Rev. W. G. Jordan, of 5trathroy, the people. From 5 p. 10. till 7.30 refreshments were served en the church grounds by the ladies of the two congregations and at 7.45 a public reception was 1 end- er•ed Mr. Richardson in the church. The church was filled to overflowing by an audience composed largely of representatives of the various congre- gations of t he village, who joined heartily with their Presbyterian treth- ern in welcoming Dir. Richardson t0 our village. A select programme of music and speech making was present- ed. The musical portion of the pro- p-111Mne was contributed to by the choirs of the Methodist church and South Plyntpton church, Miss Douglas, of Ciutaachie, Miss Sarah Harvey and Mr. Arch: Anderson.

Dr. Harvey ably filled the chair, and be- fore the proceedings were brought to a close he received a hearty vote of thanks. as did also the ladies for the excellent repast provided earlier in the evening.
