The Master's presence was felt in mighty sed from the start with the. responsibi- lity resting upon them as representa- tives of Christ and the Christian euurob, W.C.Myero of Clinton opened the con- vention proper with devotional exercis- go,' reading a few verses from °the 401h Psalm, The apeaker emphasized the Met that the success of the convention did not depend so much on the excel- lence of the prograin or apeakera ao it did on the attitude of the delegates and the Spirit which brought them. together, Eaoh.delegate was, in a measure, re- sponsible for the results which would ac- company such a gathering and he urged Upon all the necessity of enterIngheart- ily and earnestly.into all the exercises of the conference.

The 'first topic being "The Christian and His Bi- ble,"which was ably discussed in a paper by Rev. jasper Wilson of Godes rid* and .read. by Mrs, Wilson.

Association extensively dealt with and. the discus- sion which followed the reading of the address showed how it had taken hold of the audience. Dr. Ferguson of Hensall introduced the subject "How the Pastor cats help the Society," The speaker considered that as the Society was a preparatory school for the training of Christian workers and the salvation of precious souls hence a feeder to the church, the pastor should shovr his appreciation by being in attendance at every meeting, as far as possible and encourage in every Way he could 'those* who were taking part in the tneetinge of the Society. VVhile he did not approve of the pastor being depended and imposed upon by the Society, yet he believed it essential for the pastor to hold the reinel as it were, and by conferring often with the officeris regarding the lines of work most deisirable for them to gerfortn, enable that, organization to accomplish awl duties as best promote the welfare of the cause Of Christ in that . particular field. He felt that it was a fact to be leinented that there were certain rainis- ters, and in the County or Huron too, • who were. not giving this moat coni- mendeble work the encouragement which it is entitled to. It was plainly evfdent,however,thet Woe ;motors were not receiving the help or accomplishing the tame amount Of good in their pee- toral Work as those vvho appreciated the e speaker urged upon all Christian llourishing condition as far as finances dere the neoeseity of standing by the were concerned.

The subject'was thoroughly' dis- cussed by the speaker and many help- ful followed each of .the above ponds. . President Pridham called the after:. noon session to order by :Raking Rev. Mr. McDonald qf Varna to lead in the devotional exeroiees, following which was an 'address by W. C. Myers of Clinton on "Lifter and Loaners." The speaker said that in all ages God had depended upon, man as His aggresive agents. ' They were the medium through which tbe power of God. was made manifest. As disciples of Christ we should endeavor by precept and ex- ample to lift others up that they might catch a glimpse of the glory of God revealed unto us through His word and by His Holy Spirit. Too many of our members are satisfied withaLooking lap", but from want of exercise and Spiritual strength are not able to lift up others. Tho wad Endeavor implies effort and we bre not worthy of the title if we are not exercising ourselves in the cause of Christ and the Church. In order to have strength for lifting pur- poses WA must feed upon the Word of Ciock inrin- 6 ,z-tgr acoumulate this strength we must praotioe.ite teaehings. As Endergsvorera we are told ttot.."Ir Christ be lifted up from the earth Me - win draw all men unto Himself."

"Christ the Endeavorer's Model" was the subject of an earnest and practical address by Miss Mary E. Morris of God-. erieh, Only those who heard thie ex- cellent address can fully appreciate the good things said. Every eentence 0011 - tamed something inspired and proved that our lives will be governed largely by the ideal we have before us. As En- deavorers no other thought should 004 copy our minds than that of imitating Christ our model. We, as Ile, should not forget ourselves in our endeavor to help a fellow creature, and like the words of our motto we by looking up will catch a glimpse of One who cannot fail to inspire within us an earnest de- sire to lilt up others "For Christ and the Church . " rho county secretary, Mr. A, T. Cedi, per of Clinton, gave his report showing, the needs and condition 01 1110 work as a whole in the county. The report showed good progrese and according to Mater:lents from various societies the condition of the work ismostgratifying.

The young- er element of the church were entering heartily into the varioua duties aesigned them and mach reel good was sure to follow ouch efforts. A considerable sum of money has been raised during the year for missionary and other purposee besides an infireased knowledge of the Bible and consequently a better ground- ing in spirituality. Nearly a dozen societies were in existence at present besides many fields whiola will onion be in a position to commence work along this line. One ot the most pleasing and instruc- tive featuree of the afternoon's program was the Open Parliament on Junlor, workconducted by Miss Whitworth of St Marys, Junior Superintendent of the Ontario C.

Dillon of Stratford was faro. duced by the Preeident. subject veal -"National Life and our relation to it." The speaker handled the nib - joist well and impressed the iMmense audience with the importance of Christ tian citizenship. That Chris Ilan ,p eopl e .should assert themselves in publics mat- ters was obvious from , the corruption which wag practised in the election of men to public office. It is our duty as Christian people to see that only those men ire non:limited for office wb0 are above reproach themselves and who will not tolerateanything of a questionable character. The responsibility of good and pure government cloes net depend la much on the men who oet in our leg- islative assesmblies as it does °tithe peo- ple who place them there.
