At a meeting of the American Pri-

paper in which he delivered his 000-
that •imtnoral plays, picture
exhibitions and literature are respon-
Bible for much of the crime that fills
our prisons. These things have an
evil influence on young minds and
turn them in tbe way of vice and
crime. As a Penitentiary physician,
Dr, Phelan has had special opportuni•
ty to know whereof he speaks.
Environment is whatever encour-
asses one's surroundin s Spme one
p "We g '
has said, make our own environ-
ment." This is true to a certain ex-
tent. I am sure -you will agree with
me when I say, among your list of
friends you would rather cultivate the
associating with the one who invaria-
bly looks at the bright side of life and
sees in and

It was his environment that influ-.

men living in sin and ignorance
around him, so in the fear of God and
love of his fellow -man he claimed the"-

schools, distributed literature, formed

is this all we can or ought to do? Is
there not something we, as ember a
of the omes Institute can do for
the improvement of our surroundings,
especially just now when there is sq
much talk about the unsanitary condi-
tion of our town ?
We no doubt are considered, and are
good housekeepers and' homekeepers,
yet I know there is a yearning to help
those we see need helping, The
Christ -like desire toward our friends is
not that we may get something from
them, that they may be of use to us,
but that in some way we may be a
blessing to them and do them good.
Yet how cam we oto it ? How can we
get in touch with our neighbors ? It is
a ver delicate matter and requires
for
tact, manywould resent the least
interference with their management
or mode of living. I have thought
that each member of this Institute
might influence some one to make
the town more beautiful and sanitary.
Y••
Often you can gain an influence by ac-
ceptin a favor, Remember, our
great Teacher did many of His great
works as he passed by, and a great re -
formation was the result of His asking
for a drink of water at a wayside well.
In passing along if you see anyone
trying to make a garden and grow a
few things, ask what variety of pota-
toes or onions theyare growing y-
g g; an
one is pleased to have notice taken of
their work, and if you have them, you
might offer a few la
g plants or seeds of
flowers or vegetables. There is a say-
ing, that, If each before his own door

if they will not do this we have good

Public good.
Let each woman here remember she
an influence and in the great mor-
al question which is to be voted on in
our town soon, may we all use that in-
fluence on the side of right.
Let me conclude with the words of

that good man, Dean Farrar, Re-
member that if the opportunities for
great deeds should never come to.you,
the opportunity for good deeds is re-
newed for you day by day."

Thie Board held its regular monthly
meeting on Taesday evening •; incur

increase of salaries in Ontario,
it was decided to increase his salary to

Circumcision Performed.
The Ripley Express notes the fol-
lowing :—"On Monday afternoon last,
Frank Selden, aged eight days, was
the centre of attraction at the home
of his parents, Mr, and Mrs, Samuel
Selden of Ripley, when the solemn
ceremony of circumcision was per-
formed Rev. Dr. M. Kaplan, of
Toronto. Among those present from
a distance were : Mr. Charles Koff-
man of Toronto, Dir. Harry Brown,wesmonc
wife and family of Wingham. A
number of Ripley citizens were in-
terested spectators. After the ad-
F
dress by Rev. Kaplan, Harry Brown
made a speech. The event was an
unusual one in the village. The
charges for coming to Ripley to per-
form this ceremony are usually $50.00,
but'Mr, Kaplan refused to accept any
compensation."
Sister Finds Sister,
Quite lengthy accounts have appear-
ed in some of the papers regarding the
P P g g
•finding of Diiss McKay in Detroit. So
far as we can learn, the •incident was
as follows :—Miss Sarah McKay, 20
years old, became weary of the quiet
life on bei parents farm near Luck-
now, Ont., and left there about six
weeks ago, and went to Detroit where
her address could not be learned.
Finally the elder sister, Miss Catherine,
carne to Detroit to do a little detective
work. She learned that three letters
awaited her sister at the general de-
livery window at the Detroit poet-
office, and gaining the consent of the
postofllce officials, she stood in the
corridor from early morning until
late at night, from Wednesday until
g y
Friday afternoon, when her weary
vigil was rewarded by seeing the
runaway girl put in her appearance.
The two girls rushed to each other in
a most affectionate manner right in
front of a general delivery window,
and later returned home together.

recorded that the only advice he ever
gave his sons was, "Don't drink, don't

his country together ata most critical

on the European countries also.
