Rogers, Geo. Monkman, C. H. Clark and Robt. King, jr. Upon reaching here they opened Barrie s rst drug store, the building being on the present Music Hall site. Sometime after- wards they removed their business to the Martin Moore block. In 1873 Mr. Georgen retired from business, and until his death lived in the homestead on Bradford street, now owned and occupied by Mr. Alex. Clark. Since his death in 1887, Mrs. Geor- gen lived part of the time with her son, Dr. W. T. Georgen, of New York, but always regarded Barrie as her home, and was hap- piest when she was mingling with her many old friends and associates. Five weeks ago she contracted a severe cold. which develop- ed into pneumonia. Everything possible was done by relatives and friends to stay the disease and prolong life. but all in vain. During the last two weeks of her sickness ' she was in Royal Victoria Hospital, where she received every care and attention from nurses and doctors. Mrs. Georgen had exceptional beauty of disposition and character; she was self- sacriclng and kind almost to a fault, her patience knew no limit, and genuine Chris- tian qualities adorned her entire life.

When near the latter place Mrs. Georgen stopped her horse to debate with her husband as to whether they were on the right road or not, and being nearly shut in by close coverings did not notice that the buggy was standing on the railway crossing. Mr. Georgen dismounted immediately and had his wife and little boys only three _feet away from the track when a shunting engine passed. Dr. W. T.

He thought the time had come to stop sending supplies to missions in summer only; he believed this is a great source of weakness in home mis- sions, which are receding rather than ad- vancing, and articularly in Central Ontario. The growth 0 Manitoba, British Columbia and the Northwest was referred to. The doctor predicted that in 1900 the population of the West would be 800,000, and in 1905 greater than that of the lower provinces, 10,000 immigrants went in last year via Winnipeg and this year as many settlers entered that country during January, Feb- ruary and March. He referred to the 10,000 Gallicians and other foreigners that are set- tling there, and urged the necessity of the churches prosecuting mission work among these foreigners to make them useful and loyal citizens. The speaker gave interesting facts regarding mineral development in British Columbia. A large share of the present output enriches the where of Amer- icans. It would be a good thing for Can- ada, said Dr. Robertson, "if there were fewer lawyers, doctors and theologians and more interest taken in the development of western mineral areas. Mining centres are generally-very low in morals and mis- sionaries are needed to go into these camps and spread the light of gospel truths. He urged that more money should be spent in home missionary work and if necessary less in foreign work, and that home missionary organizations should be established. At present, said the doctor, we get $12,000 to $15,000 from the Old Country for home missions, but this amount will not be forth- coming much longer. They say that Can- ady is a prosperous country and should be able to care for her own people. 20,000 or 30,000 pounds is expended in foreign mis- sions. Whv not spend 4,000 or 5,000 pounds of this amount for home missions? AL `L- _I--_ -2 LL- _jj,,,,, 'I'\ 'I\ Ill UIII3 Cl-II\I\lI-IU LU` IIVIIIC IUIBBIULIB 0 At the close of the address Revs. D. D.

At every point precautions have been taken to turn rain or snow water away from the angles formed by the towers and roof. All parapet work has been covered with galvanized iron. The railing around the Market roof was all re- moved and replaced on blocks instead of making holes in the roof.

These pictures were purchased through the ebrte of teachers and pupils last year. and are e Jubilee offering, showing among other things the loyalty of the school to Brita.in s Queen. School rooms cannot have more appropriate decorations. The picture of a noble women and particularly when that woman in Queen of England, has a. moral e'ect on children.

A lesson in Algebra to the fth class su - gested the thought as to whether there in enough abstract teaching of pupils in the public schools; certainly there is not as much as there used to be. It is quite easy to make the mistake of using the concrete too long, in the desire, oftimes misplaced. of making things easy for the pupil. The thought also occurred that the teaching of Algebra and Euclid is of educational value to the junior classes in the same room as the fth class, tor, through observation, they are incidentally studying out what a: means anvway, or proving that things which are equal to the same thing are equal to one an- other. _,.9l!,I l.QI .1 A "Artishel" is the way one of the pupils spells articial. It is not necessary to say that this boy was taught by the phonlo method, which deals with sounds; but he must learn that the English, language does not permit of spelling by rule. No sooner is he getting along nicely according to rule than he strikes an exception which spoils the whole thing. The phonic system is sometimes called the new fangled method. Whatever mav be said in its favor it does not make better spellers than the old A B 0 method. - Written examinations in one or two rooms gave a good opportunity for the inspection of pupils writing. Out of some sixty pupils very few write legibly. in nearly all cases, however, the work was put down neatly and correctly. It is merely the writing it- self we refer to. Three-fourths of the pupils in any room should be able to write well, age and class in every case of considered What can be said of that system that results in making three-fourths of the class, or even a greater proportion, poor writers? This the vertical system does. By all means let our schools get back to the Spencerian sys- tem of writing.

The funeral took place on Sunday after- noon to Bethesda cemetery, where the re- mains were interred in a well-kept plot. A father and mother, three sisters and three brothers were buried there some years ago. The procession, which_was very large when leaving Barrie. was augmented from Essa Hill onwards by numerous friends of the deceased, so that by the time the cemetery was reached, where a large crowd was al- ready in waiting, the funeralwas unusually large. Rev._ Mr. McLeod conducted ser~ vices at the house and Rev. Mr. Gre g. of Cookstown, and Rev. Mr. Cochrane, 0 Bar- rie, at the grave. The pall-bearers were Messrs. J. McL. Stevenson, John Woods, "W. Ault, W. Gallic, J. J. Brown and J. K. Rose. THE ADVANCE extends its sympa- thies to the sorrowing relatives. Mr. John Barry, whose death occurred last Wednesday night at his residence near Cundle s school house after six months adual decline of his entire system, was cm in County Cork, Ireland, sixty-three years ago. When nineteen years of age he emigrated to Barrie, and for over thirty years lived in the vicinity of his late resi- dence. He was an industrious man. well known and highly respected about town His wife was Miss Minnehan, also of County Cork, and died seven years ago.

Mr. Black was for a great many years a faithful and active older 01: Essa townline congregation, and took a leading part in the erection of thepresent brick structure. He was a man of deep piety, well versed in the Scriptures, and frequently discharged the duties of the pulpit with satisfaction to the congregation. .

About eleven years ago he married Miss McLennan. of Innisl, and with her leaves one son, William Thomas Robert. Very strong was the attachment which -existed among the three brothers; they played to- gether, they have always lived close to one another since they reached manhood, and a further though peculiar evidence of their close friendship is the fact that William's son is called_William Thomas Robert, and Robert s son Thomas Robert William.
