BAPTISM SERVICE AT THE RIVER ON SUNDAY LAST In connection with the special Gospel Services during,r the past month conducted by Evangelist James Emblem, in the large tent on Balsam street. there have been meetings of great interest. 011 each of the Satur- day evenings the Evangelist gave tid.. dresses on his life, ihs conversation at the age of 15 years, his evangelistic work, and hiswlurlewheavted belief in the power of faith. He mentioned the very boots and clothes he wore as coming in direct answer' to his faith. A very interesting part of these spe- cial meetings, which are under the auspices of the Baptist church, was the service conducted on Sunday " ternoon at the side of the Mattaguami River, when Evangelist Fhublern gave what he termed the Scriptural teach- ing or Ihyliever'.q Baptism, those pro- fessing their faith being immersed in the waters of the river. At this ser- vice three young men were baptised aeeording to the doctrine of the Han- tist church, the ceremony being wit.. nessed by a very interested company. There was a noteworthy improve- ment in the attendance at the tent on Sundav evening. when another stir- ment in the attend: Sunday evening, v ring gospel messugt ring gospel message was given. Owing to illness Gypsy John Haw- kins has been unable to take up the work this week when Mr. Emblem leaves for a month 's, meetings in Win- nipeg.

Making the Accordion Sound Like' well Hum Pat,' A Band. Many people regard the aeeordion as more or less of a novelty instru- ment or a mere toy for the amusement of children, failing to realize that the coneert accordion, until recent years, was regarded as a legitimate instru- ment and was used in all large sym- phony orchestra. ln the hands of an artist, wonderful elfeets are secured with the eoneert aeoordion, which is a 'very different instrument from the toy affairs usually seen. The eoneert or pianrr aeeordion used by Prince when he appears at Chautauqua is a beautiful instrument that cost nearly a thousand dollars. And Prince will make you think that he has an orehes- tra concealed somewhere back of the tent when he plays. The music und entertainments selle- duled are worth more than the cost of a season ticket; then to them is add- ed the lectures to be given by a staff of excellent speakers, it will be under- stood at once that Chautauqua offers more for the money than anything else we can thing of just now. Tickets are $2.20, including war tax, for the whole series. and half that price for children. Their many friends will extend sympathy to Mr. and Mrs. W.

Jlorinc-all the Couneillors,---pt'esent. F Mr. P. N. Wallingford in address- ing the Couneil said he did not like a remark made at a recent meeting of the Town Couneil suggesting that 1lattagami Heights wanted town ad- vantages but did not want to join the town and pay its share of town costs. He believed that 90 percent. of the people of the adjoining townsite would he agreeable to annexation to the town. Practically all who bad spoken to him about. it were not in any way opposed. He suggested that the Town Council pass the required resolution to the effect that the. an- nexation was desirable and he felt sure the necessary petition from Mat- tagami Heights to follow would be well signed. One ol' the Couneillors thtmght the first move should come from Mattagami Heights, but in re- ply it was plrinted"out that the Town Solicitor advised that the proper le- gal procedure was as suggested by Mr. Wallingford. As it was a special meeting: of Couneil, however, this matter could not he dealt with Mon- day but was deferred until the next meeting, it being suggested that Mr. 1%llingrord present his case then. Mr. W. Gaune asked Couneil for IIIUI'O Or. H. H. Moore, the Medieal‘ Health ()ltieer, addressed the Courier" on health matters regarding the town.I Following his usual attitude on health matters, Dr. 'Moore emphasized the virtue of prevention, and urged the ('ouneil to take such steps as would tend to prevent ehanees " disease and maintain the general health of the town. He pointed out that it had been net-eSsary to advise the boiling of all water used for domestie pur- poses, the last reports from the Pro- vineial analyst showing that the wa- ter was not free from baeeili. The M. fl. O. pointed out that the present system of ehlorinatine' was not doing the work properly. It was erude and ineffective. A year ago the 1'ouneil had agreed to instal an automatic eon- trol ehlorinating: plant that would do the work right. The money consider- ation was not important in view of the danger to health and lives from neglect. Irr. Moore also referred to the need of an isolation hospital and the promises made by the Couneil to supply this need, but nothing had been done. "We have an isolation hospital," said one Couneillor refer- ring; to the shaek used last winter. “No." replied another Couneillov, "there are two families livihg in that house now.” Tout-hing: on the gar- bage question, the Medieal Health ()llieer advised that during the hot weather at least more frequent rol- leetions should be made.
