SPIRITUAL ADVANCE
CONFERENCE HELD
Presbytery of Maitland Have In-
structive Session at St.
Andrew's Church
The Presbytery of Maitland held a
spiritual advance conference in St.
Andrew's Presbyterian Church on
Tuesday of last week at which there
-was a splendid attendance. The ob-
ject of the meeting was to promote
the general spiritual welfare of the
church .at large, and to discuss prob-
lems and work of the different con-
,gregations. The speakers at the var-
ious sessions were: Rev, J. McBeth
Willer, /3.D., of Palmerston; Rev. M.
.1. Davidson, M.A., .of Galt, and Rev.
'W. M. Kannawin, D.D., of
'Toronto.
Rev. Mr. Miller, of Pahnerston,
was the speaker at the morning ses-
, sion and gave a masterly summary
of the work of Karl Barth, and of
the Barthian movement on the Con-
tinent. The Barthian Theology was
shown to be neither a bald funda-
mentalism nor a barren modernism,
Jew a spiritual interpretation of the
Bible, which exalts God and shows
.the sinner his true place.
At the aftertioom session Rev. Mr.
:Davidson spoke on the subject "Some
Difficulties That Confront the Min -
lister." The difficluty of appeal to
eiathority, the exposure of his mess-
age to 'extreme criticism and the dif-
ficulties arising from the present ec-
onomic conditions, were ably delat
with. A discussion followed Mr.
Davidson's address, stressing the im-
portance of filling the mind and heart
fthe young, with the Word of God,
through the memorization of the
Scripture, and the importance of.
preaching and. teaching the Word of
God in the power of the Spirit of
-God.
Rev. Mr. Kannawin, who is secre-
tary of the Young People's and Sun-
-clay school work, with headquarters
in Toronto, spoke at the evening ses
sion, which was in charge of the
pastor, Rev. Kenneth McLean. Mr.
Kannawin spoke on "The Apostle's
•Creed," which had its beginning ar-
-ound the latter part of the eight and
the beginning of the ninth centuries.

W. H. GOLDING
WINS IN S. HURON
Louis Rader, Conservative, Loses by
Largest Majority is Hostory
of Riding
The result of the by-election held
in South Huron on Monday gave
William H. Golding, Liberal, of Sea -
forth, a majority of about 1500 over
Louis H. Rader, Conservative..
This is the largest majority ever
given a candidate in this riding. The
late Thomas McMillan had a major-
ity of 349 in his last election, and
his greatest majority in any previous
election was slightly less than 1200.
Mr. Golding, who is a shop foreman.
at Seaforth, will fill out the unexpir-
ed term of the late Mr. McMillan.
Mr, Rader, the defeated candidate is
a farmer in the Township of Hay.
It was expected that a Liberal
would again represent the riding, but
the size of the majority received by
Mr. Golding was considerable of a
shock to Mr. Rader's supporters.
The campaign put on by the Lib-
erals was as aggressive as possible
and the Conservatives also worked
hard, but their efforts could not be
compared to the Liberal campaign.

and the day of his death he spent
part of the forenoon around the vill-

immediately. Mr. Underwood moved
