The new pastor is a splendid speaker, and his discourses showed that be is both scholarly and practiâ€" #&al in his thoughts. His exhortations were earnest and ~impressive and the made a very favorable impression. _ His sermons were appropriate for the occasion, the morning address dealing with the harvest and its posâ€" sibilities, and made comparison beâ€" tween the earthly and spiritual harâ€" vests. He urged greater activity on the part of all those who proiss io be followers of God. In the excning the text was taken from Psain. 1i%; 130, viz., ‘"The entrance of thy words giveth light."

The score was tied alâ€" most ~cevery other «end, and at the 13th end the Brampton bowlers only needed two to tic, and were lying that many shots, but Eulet drew in for second shot and won the game. In the singles it was Berlin all the way. Unfortunately Euler and Merâ€" rick wore drawn against each other in the third round and the former put the latter out of the running after a close contest.

J. Richards was decidedly popular. In the finals he was pitted against Skip W.â€" E.

One firm lost 17 employes during the Past month, they going to smaller centres, because of their inability to lease comfortable homes at a figuce within their meams. â€" These men had ro othcr complaint to make in withâ€" drawing other than that: "It costs too much to live here. Rents are too high." An‘ appeal is being made â€" to those who take an interest in Toâ€" ronto‘s welfat, t0 become scized â€"of the situation and to make a concertâ€" ced effott to solve the question. A Toronto daily has gone over the ground and learned that there are only 2,000 houses in that city which rent for $10 per month or less, and the assessment this class of houses bears is in many instances $300 or less, showing at a glance that they must be a poor class of dwellings. Toronto has 22,000 workimg men who earn from $12 per week and downâ€" ward. It is felt that the city should be able to supply mechanics with a better class of houses than they . obâ€" tain at present for $18 to $15 rental at from $8 to $10 per month, and the disadvantages of naving two, three and even four families living in one dwelling, built for one family, should be. removed. .
