He said: "In pregentieg the ninth annual report, I have the very great entiefaotion of stating that the work continues in to highly flourishing condition. Our anion is still in the front rank, still robust and energetic, showing an inorease of no less than 297 soaietiea during the year. Of all the States and Provinces in Amoebae only three have surpassed Ontario in the number of m- oieties enrolled—Pennsylvania, •8,443 ; New York, 3,049 ; and Ohio, 2,388.

On the other hand I have had the plena. ure of adding three times 185 to the roll, with the result, ae I have stated, that we are 297 societies ahead of what we were Ibis time last year. Then our estimated total membership was 84,630, now lb is 102,452, or an ineresse of 17,822. The Exeoutive, at the gathering held in Toronto on New Year's day, expressed ite sympathy with the Lord's Day Alli. anoe in upholding the eaorednees of the Sabbath, and a resolution was palmed calliug upon Christian Encleavorers in the Provinee to assist the alliance when. ever possible.

Miss Wiggins, Toronto, superintendent of the Junior Union, presented the fol- lowing report : We are growing as children should. In 1891, we nembered 10 societies ; in 1892, 38 '• 1893, 105 ; 1894, 178 ; 1895, 288 : 1896, 287 ; and now we have 815 junior sociable's on one rolls, with a total mem- bership of 17,451, making a net gain in sooletiee during the year of 27,and of members, 8,495, The Methodists lead with 153 societies ; Presbyterians, 79; Congregational, 34; Baptist, 21 ; Union, 20; Disciple, 10; Church of England, 8 ; Evangelical Assoeiation, 1; Atnerioan Episcopal, 1. Largest membership re- ported :—Enolid avenue, Toronto, 216 ; First Methodist, St. Thoroas, 210 ; Grace Methodist, St. Thomas, 197 ; Broadview, Toronto, 148 ; Woodgreen Methodist, Toronto, 127. The Juniors are enlisting in the ohurola's army to the number of 1,086, while Y. P. moieties have been reinforced by 644 trained workers. The Juniors are aggremive in all they undertake. They [MVO donated during the year to missions 53,094. The largest amounts contributed : Euclid avenue, 573 Agnes street, Methodist, 037.74. The increase in Junior givingti has been greater in proportion than moreasse in new 'moieties, being $822.92. Juniors may give praotio- al help in dietributing, literature, running messages—make their personal appeal for safety against the common enemy. A. badge with these words (won by the boys) "Vote for prohibition for my sake 1" won neany a hither's vote in one of the States norm the line. Thirty-nine ['aunties have Junior sepia - ties. Fourteen countim and seven cities have sooleties of Junior work. Hamilton, Peterboro', Toronto, Brantford, Sh. Thomas and Ottawa have 0. E. unions. These unions are instrumental in the great inarense in now societies whioh takes place in the cities. In Toronto 15 new Junior gooieties leave been organized, while St. Thomas boasts 5. County for author work, °Elgiu is the banner." Our Junior work has not gaiued in new societiea as we would desire, but we be- lieve there are gahae to the church, to the juniors themselves, that cannot be calculated. Aots of loving service mu!. tiply, and the enthusiasm and interest of these boys and girls will orystallize into Christian oharaoter that shall bring Christ's kiugdom more speedily to the hearts of our humanity, bemuse they early enlisted in His aerviee.

When the curtain raised a pretty sight was presented, the 125 Juniors on the platform being decked in all the colors of the rainbow. After singing "Onward, 0 Senior En. deavorers," Rev. Mr. Salton opened with prayer. The address of weleome by Minster Steele Inivrie, of Centre Street Baptist church, was hoextily oheered, as was also the response by Master Henry Jones, of Bridgeburg. "Keep the banner flying" was sung by the Juniors, after which Coil Rolls, of Hamilton, addreeeed the meeting oe "juniors as temperance workers." Individual work against cigarette amok• ing among the young, and united efforts in view of the approaching plebegaite vote was strongly urged. A solo, "Remember your Creator," was sweetly enng by Blies Gracie Turner, a Junior of Toronto, after which "Who will follow Jesus 7" was sung by the Juniors. "Our Canada" was the eubjeot of a stir. ring address by Miss Flo. Cooper, a loyal young Canaeian from Toronto. The grand oPpoetunity to live for our country in deed and in truth was pictured in a very pm:Weal way. Miss Ethel Harvey, of London, sang a golo, "God is near," very eceeptably. Mr. Bickle then addressed the mooting on the "Junior extension fund," briefly outlining the mode of the work. While the offering was being made the eteye was put in readiness for "The junior Garden," This exerolge was interesting and insteuctive and illustrated many practieal teethe in connection with junicie work, The shovel brIgade, the sowers, the rain brigade, the sunshine brigade, the farmers )vith their weeding hoes and the flower girls, representing lilies, violete, poppies Mitt Y0888 centre. buted to the noose of one of the most beautifel exorcises of the kind ever pro. sented in 51.

The addresses teemed with poitste full of Intereet to Junior workere. Rev. Wray Smith, of Griineby, spoke on "Junior moiety DM teeter la Ohl -troll work."

Now it is all different. Vol. times on volumes were piled up on the subject, It was an age of interest in childhood. We believe the Junior C.

In a few days these children will be at the bead of the helm of state. Hence the Junior of the day should be taught not only the thing but the praotioa of life. In childhood there is perfect truthful. nesse, not eo with older people ; the com- pliments they honestly utter are false. Only as they become older do they be- come ineinciere. The earnestnees of childhood was beautiful to behold. They think of but one bhing at a time, and that with all their ardor and time. The trusbfulness ot childhood was refreshing. It fears nothing ; it thinks of zothing and is free from all care, so long aa its patents are beside it. Children had de. oided some of the greatest events of the world. It was a child that decided V7e.b. Gripe by showing Blutcher a shorter route to Wellington. It was a little girl that had decided the battle of Gettysburg, and it was the children who would have to decide the armageddon of the future. S. 3.

Carlyle said th the brave man was the sincere ma That sincerity would lead him to do a he tumid just where he was. One ounce of prevention was worth a pound of care. It was no sign of a here to allow a man to become a drunkard and then try to cure him. To keep him from ever becoming a drunkard showed greater and truer beroiern than great and brilliant efforts AD refoim before the world after the evil bad been doue. To stop evil at the start was the first work of the Endeavorer. To stop evil was true heroism. In that they had an ideel in one of the greatest reformers that had ever lived—Neal Dow —whose praise was sung all over Europe and America. (Applause.) He was is fitting ideal for any one. The Christian hero raust nob be afraid of being whipped, To endure defeat was the beet test of manhood and WOmIIII hood. It was the best ten of our heroic character. Simms was befit on defeat. Gen. Lew. Wallace was looked upon as a great writer; as a soldier be had met many severe defeats. No great reform or advance movement had ever reached sue. pose except upon a series of defeats. It bad often been said that men were the .7oreADUres of eirournstances. That would be true only, if emphasis were laid on the word men. Great men were made by circumstances, end that nearly : lwaye adverse. 13nt mere einem- tencee alone would not make Mb men as Lincoln or Gladstone. What we were depended on what we were in, and what we do with circumstances. The same ofronmstanoes prodnoed the angel end the demon. The same sooial and political air produced Moody and Ingersoll .• the same eircametaneee produoed the fussy, new and nondescript woman and those queens, Lady Henry Sommerset and Fearless E. Willard. (Applause.) Self sacrifice ebould be the watchword of a Christian, It was better to die a hero in a Lames house, or a viebim of heathen lune, than in the too -often dis- grace of a millionaire. What could be better thee, at the close of life to beex that glad "Well done." The choir then gave a selection while the offering was being taken up, followed by a beatitiftil eolo from Mrs. Hindley, which appealed to the audience strongly. THE 0103110e11 000170111. G. Tower Ferguson, of Toronto, then addressed the meeting on the Canadian Counoil. The idea of the Canadian Council had existed for many years. Some organization that would repeesent the whole of Canada, was wanted. The idea was orystalized at Ottawa lad year. The Canadian Counoil was not to take the place of the Provinoial Union nor was Si to mar the value of the Inter- national Conventions. 13ot at these international oonventiona Canada should be repteeented as a whole. The objeots of the Counoil would be three -fold. First it would have a national bureau of information ; it would serve to oreate Christian patriotism arnong the young people of Canada—the most glorious country in the world. In the third (place it would serve to arrange for Canadian representatives. In 1899 the fleet Can- adian oonvention would be held in Mon. treat.
