The annual Sunday School Institute of Bowmanville District held its first meeting meeting in Methodist Church, Bowmanville, Thursday, Jan. 21. Rev. F. L. Farewell, B.A., B.D., Toronto, Associate Secretary of Sunday Schools and Epworth Leagues of the Methodist Church, who for the past five or six years has been devoting his whole time to this work, attended, speaking speaking very fully on "The Place of the Sunday Sunday School in Modern Education", "The Tragedy of Youth and the Church's Prevention", Prevention", and the "Adult Bible Class, Home Department and Teacher Training". The speaker, by blackboard, chalk, ; nd question dre * from his audience the thot that the Sunday School holds not only the most important place, in the education of the child, but if that instruction is not given and retained at the upheaval age 12 to 20 years--a life, with all its untold possibilities, is lost to the church. Rev. C. W. Barrett, the energetic Secretary, Secretary, presented some facts as to the standing of the schools in this district that gave the delegates m *ch food for thought. A new standard is being presented to which every school will wish to attain. Rev. Wm. Higgs, Tyrone, gave an excellent excellent 10-minute talk on "Evangelism in the Sunday School" that was counted among the good things of the afternoon. He said the attitude of the church, Sunday Sunday School and teacher toward the conversion conversion of the pupil will largely determine the type of Christian he will be. Miss Frances E. Conley presented the subject of "Missions in the Sunday School" in a well prepared paper, outlining a course for keeping this important subject before the school and thus increasing its contributions. Discussion followed as to how this could be carried out by Mr. Trebilcock, Revs. Moore, Kenny, What- tam and Higgs. Rev. H. B. Kenny's subject "The Sunday Sunday School as a force in the Kingdom's Extension" showed clearly that there is no other organization so admirably fitted to teach the word of God as the Sunday School, and that if boys and girls are allowed allowed to slip through and go unconverted, the church can never make up for it later on. The speaker thot that no age had had better teachers than this one and urged everyone holding that position to consecrate his or her life to Christ that each may yet wield more influence and do better work. Rev. Mr. Barrett ably presided throughout throughout the sessions, the evening meeting closing closing with the benediction by Rev. WC- Washington.

League program Monday evening in the Methodist church was oi a miscellaneous miscellaneous character. President Butson gave an intelligent talk on the war; Misses Lena Haddy, Greta M. Wickett and Carrie Painton gave interesting readings; Miss Reta R. Cole and Miss Beatrice Devitt rendered fine piano solos; Mr. S. Glanville contributed a splendid vocal solo.. Next week the subject is "The Witnessing that (From The Tweed Advocate) Evidently another editor hais considered the time opportune to ' Ring off" if we may judge from an editorial in the Bowmanville Bowmanville Statesman. It is much to be regretted that there are not more such publications as The Statesman whose publishers are above stooping to accept bribes. No offer great or small should influence a newspaper man to deny himself that freedom of speech so necessary for the safeguarding of the public interest, and he would be unwise indeed to separate himself from this most outstanding feature of modern journalism. There should be no fear of criticism if public officers perform their duties openly and above board, in a conscientious conscientious and upright manner. Only those who would be crooked in legislating need fear and on these the flashlight of publicity will not fail to be kept by the modern newspaper man. FROM SALISBURY PLAIN.

While the pastor's congregation was Bustard Camp, Jan. loth Dear Mr. James--I had a big surprise a day or two ago in the shape 'of a letter from a Mr. T. P. Fletcher, a cousin of yours living in Blackpool. It was addressed addressed to Dan D., No. 8433, but I never dreamt of my letters to you travelling back to England. He was good enough to send me an invitation to pay him a visit at his home and to bring another of the boys with me. I am afraid, however, that I will not get the chance this side of the war, altho we are just as certain of moving now (unless we get washed away) as the Kaiser is of beating us all. We got orders to be ready to move, and we did--a hundred yards to the other side of the parade. It will be fine to walk on grass again, as long as it lasts, which will be two days at the most, in this weather. The country for miles around is flooded, and in Salisbury the Cathedral is flooded too, a thing that was never known before; so you can see, or rather try to imagine our conditions. If we saw some prospect of getting away we wouldn't mind at all. I think now it was a little previous, sending sending us over here. Of course, it is good for trade in this country we know, but they should think of us, too, tho we are only food for bullets. I read in one paper that it costs $20,000 to kill a man in this war. That's none too cheap, is it ? As I • write, it's raining as if it would try to beat j its previous records. I heard one of the ; boys say just now "that it would be a treat to have it sixty below zero for a month". It certainly-would be a treat if the ground would freeze up. We have whole brigade minoeuvres now, all the time, and if we get through the real war as we do the sham battles, all will be well. One cannot imagine the sight of a whole battalion in open order, moving as one man almost. Yesterday our company happened to march over the top of a hill, being reinforcements to the main body. I shall never forget the sight of probably 500 advancing slowly, but surely, on a few men placed in a position on the top of a small hill. Yet, I was told ! the men on the hill had the best of the bargain. It would have made a wonderful wonderful picture for the cinematograph. Then the charge is sounded and you see the line, which has been lying prone for a short while, rise as one man, and a roar of voices comes back, swelling louder every moment. One feels awed almost, to think of the possibility of that being reality some day, and those same men, who will halt at the sound of a whistle, rushing with bayonets fixed, to kill those who oppose them. Old soldiers say one forgets everything in a charge like that but the fact that you must "get the man" in front of you, and I can believe it, too. After perhaps an hour of slow progress, to get the word to fix bayonets, gives one a thrill and makes the blood boil. Don't think that's the "Scotch" now, for I have heard many say the same. And the "yell" is infectious, too, for you hear the next man give a "whoop" which would give a red-skin a shock, and the next thing you know you are trying to go one better. They sav "the barking dog doesn't bitee but I wouldn't like to be on the other sid" when our boys do give that yell. I hear the Rubber Works is doing well now; glad to hear it, I am sure. The boys outside "our" tent say I forget the rest of them in my letters. Perhaps I do, but I told them the best way to remedy that is to write themselves, for I am sure you will find room tor them; [Yea, verily--Editor!. verily--Editor!. Of course they visit us--some of them--but tent life is just like home life, it takes one to every tent to get all the news. Don't be surprised if you get an overflow of news soon. Now and again you see the boys gazing skywards, dreaming dreaming of the home town possibly, but they soon come to earth literally. Salisbuty abounds with mole hills and if you look anywhere but before you, you are almost sure to find one with your toe. The only trouble the boys have now is to get dry sox to wear as our feet are generally generally wet bv the time we get home. Happy is still tryi g to find out his mistake mistake in counting the men who paraded at dinner to-day. There should have been 100 but he counted 120. Why?--No, he wasn't pickled by any means, as the canteens canteens are all closed now. We were served served with "duff" and some were twice as mngry as usual. I was myself, but was :oo slow to get in for a second lot. We do pretty well as regards cakes from re- ations here, but as Happy says "We'll expand expand to suit our friends, too. Don't think we are asking for anything"; dear me, no ! "but thank everybody for what they have A We are offering bigger bargains than ever for the,, last few days of the Sale.
