A., City In- spector of Public Schools, Ottawa, has written a letter from which we pub- lish a few sentences because we ap- preciate very highly hi kind words, and sentiments: Dear Editor and Staff, Statesman Officec Throughout the year you lave contributed . weekiy to my pleasure through the éý3i umns of your valued paper and 1 write this note simply to wish you the compliments of the sea- son, A Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. I may add that I think The States- yman has been this year freighted ai- most weekly with delightful incidents touching the early history of dear old Darlington, making it a real joy to "Old Boys" like myself. On reading Dr. James Hutchinson's contribution of last week in appreci- ation of Robert McLaughlin, I' thought that if the- different instal- ments of these interesting reminis- censes were assembled into a pamph- let, they would make s9omething to be prized by us aIl and others coming after us. As I close 1 can see you and Miss Haycraft, both of whom I have known so long and for whom I have such kindly feelings, standing smiling at me as you did when last I visited Bowmanville, and a rush of tender feelings comes over me. 1 think I have noticed in your paper growing year by year, a richer, maàêlower, more Christian attitude to men and although I have already said "Merry Xmas and Happy New Year"l I want to say God bless you both and make you happier and more useful stili if that is possible. CHRISTIAN LEADERSHIP ofAn open letter to the young people ofevery deinomination, who are anx- ious to secure training for Christian Leadership. Dear Young Peéple,- We are now nearing the date for the commencement of our Winter School. The time has ail but ar- rived when, you must decide as to whether or not you will be with us in Cobourg during the week of January 9-16, 1922. If at present youare of the opinion you cannot corne, just stop, for one moment and think the matter -ail over again.- If you f eel that you will be too busy with other things during the school week, see if you cannot re-or- ganize your work so that yon can corne. The question is, - can you afford net to corne? Have you no difficul Vies upon which you 'des*e light? Have you no problems we can help you solve? Have you no experience you can share with us? Think once again of the Curri- culum, which includes courses in Bible Study, Missions, Young People's Work an-d Problems, Organization and methods of work. Remember that men most eminently fitted for leadership have been, secured and with their co-operation the School hopes fo enlist the young people as a Trained Host in His service. .1You have received the printed pro- gram.
