BAPTIST CHURCH.
Sunday last beim; anniversary
Sunday the .Rev. Dr. J. G. Brown of
Toronto, General Secretary. for Mis-
sions for the Baptist Church, was
the preacher of the day. The speak-
er spent several years in India and
was therefore enabled to give some
first hand information as to the
work in that field.
Dr. Brown's morning subject was
"Christians, the. Salt of the Earth,"
and his admonition was that the fol-
lowers of Christ should be careful
that their spiritual influence does
not become weak and ineffectual, In
the evening he spoke of "Cowardice
in the Face of Ranger, and warned
his hearers against this temptation.
Dr. Brown is a plain and very
forclul speaker and his discourses
were delivered with power and were
listened to with profit.
The choir rendered special music at
each service which was appreciated
highly,
{food congregations attended and
the offerings for the day surpassed.
the expectations of the officials.
The pastor, Rev. W. W. Wylie,will
preach on both services on Sunday
next.
THE TOWN COUNCIL.
The town council .. on Monday
evening passed the localoption by-
law along in the electors, who . will
pronounce onit on Jan. 0th.
Dr. Shaw's annual report as med-
ical health officer was presented. :It.
said in short
Almost every town and village in
the county has had contagious' . div-
eases the past season but not so
Clinton. This is good.
'rhe death rate has been seventeen
per thousand and the birth rate
nineteen per thousand.
There should be a systematic re-
moval of garbage and manure. A
heap of garbage or manure will
breed more flies in forty-eight hours
than can be captured in a season.
This is 'an, age. of prevention and
some means should be taken to 're-
duce the danger from flies.
I have been glad to notice that-ef
forts have been made to keep down
the dust on our beautiful front street
by sprinkling with oil. I hope next.
heason this policy will be followed to
a still' greater extent.
