The speaker for the day was Rev. Dr. Geo. Duncan, pastor of St. An drews Church, Stratford, who brought to the congregation two very inspiring sermons.

The theme of the speaker’s sermon £ot the evening service was “Whav Think Ye of Christ.” What are the people thinking about Christ is a question of every age and is an im portant question of the present time.- What are young people of today thinking of Christ and God and the great facts of sin and salvation? How are we going to deal with, the great present-day problems of de pression, unemployment and traged ies on every hand. Are we thinking about the great needs of thouands Who do not seem to have much re lation with the church of Jesus Christ today. We are face to face With tremendous problems of mur ■ day but according to David Smnh, a icle-vet English writer one of greatest problems conifronting /in-, dividuals is their relation to kingdom and personal saxva; What answer shall we give? gospel do we preach to those who are seeking a means of grace? The more the speaker hears of disap pointment and distress the more he realizes ’there is only one iSnviour for the ills and heartaches of hu manity, Are we able to interpret Christ to the needy? What would you bring to the weary and heavy laden? There is hone other iSaViour; no other one so kind or so true. The pastor Rev. j. B.
