FOR THE ANGLICAN SUNDAY SCHOOLS REPORTED Delegates Elected to General Synod and Mission Board--The Salary of Bishop Bidwell Fixed at $4,000 a Year, : That the outlook for the work of the Sunday schools of the Anglican church is a most encouraging one, was the cheering message Rev. R. A. Hiltz, M.A., Toronto, general secre- tary of the Sunday school commis- sion, gave to the members of the Ontario Synod, at the Wednesday af- ternoon session. Mr. Hiltz said that there was every- thing to encourage the workers. While it was a work of many dis- couragements, it was also a work of many encouragements, and' the speaker felt that the workers were inclined. to dwell too much on the discouragements, Even the most pessimistic must admit that the church was much wider awake now than ever before to the importance of the work Progress has been slow, but certain. "We are at last listening to the challenge the child is putting forth," sald the speaker "It is most en- couraging to know that the church is listening to this ehallenge. There are many problems and we are mak ing good progres Delegates Elected The following delegates presentatives were elected Clerical Delegates to the General Synod--Dean Starr, Canon Beamish, Rev, H.

H. H. Bedford-Jones. The report stat- ed that it was expected that another series of conferences would be held this spring, likely' in May, by the general secretary of the Sunday school commission, The Children's day . offerings amounted to over $382.00. This is a distinct increase over any previous year." The Sunday school commis- sion Is anxious to extend and im- prove its power of réaching and help- ing schools throughout whole church, and for that purpose is ask- ing for more funds. The committee believes a further inerease would take prace if parishes were told what might be expected from them, and would all bring the mattér before the congregations as a whole, 'and not jaerely before Sunday gchools themselves The commiliee's Leeds deanery an made in the or ization. Superin- tendents have been appointed for a number of the departments suggest- ed in the canon, and improvements have been introduced in several of the schools, Arrangeme have also been made for holding a Sunday schoo! conference in connection with the meetings of the ruri-decanal chapter twice a year with the special object of stimulating the work of the local Sunday schools which can thus be reached Two were held during 1913, for another. It is recommended to the other deanery chapters to try the same plan A teacher training course is likely to be held at Port Hope towards the end of June, and your committee hopes that a consid- erable number of the teachers may avail themselves of it The supply of teachersgassisted in becoming more efficient in their work, as well as adequate in numbers, is probably the greatest need of our Sunday school system at the present time Our diocese was represented ip the examination for teachers at Whit- suntide, and also in that for scholars in advent; in the former they did remarkably well, in the latter the results are not yet issped." Canon Beamish reported for the lectory Lands Committee. There is a debit balance, Jan. 2nd, 1914, of $2,026.15, and § 184, was paid to the rectors. Two and one-half per cent. half-yearly was realized. Rural Dean Jones also reported for the Clergy Trust fund The synod passed. a resolution, submitted by G. F. Ruttan, fixing the salary of Bishop Bidwell, at $4,000 per vear and travelling expenses. On motion of Canon W.

During the 'metropolitan en- gugement of "Fine Feathers atten- tion was shared by the play, which is described as the masterpiece of Eugene Walter, and the cast, which is the finest ever assembled for a modern drama. The fact that Eugene Walter is the author of "Paid in Full," "The Easiest Way," "The" Wolf" and "The Trail of the Lonesome Pine" and "Fine Feath- ers" is pronounced his best work, speaks volumes for the play. But with every part in the hands of a star, even the casual attendant of the theatre can imagine the wonder- ful performayce in store. "he engazement is for the Thurs- day night performance only "A Butterfly on the Wheel" A splendid attraction will be "A Butterfly on the Wheel which will appear at the Grand on Saturday, Feb. 21st, bargain matinee and night. One of the greatest successes of the past season was this play in Néw York at the 39th Street Theatre, where it duplicated its triumph in London and that it will meet with deserved favor here is a foregone conclusion, since its theme is an appeal that interests everyone, and interpreted by such a clever specially selected company cannot but result in its approval. "A Butterfly on the Wheel" is a play that teaches a great moral les- son, that practically appeals to wo- men, and shows in a direct way how small things and insignificant actions may magnify themselves when done thoughtlessly. Lawrence Irving in "Typhoon" Melchior Lengyel's "Typhoon" has certainly justified its title by within no less than three years of its com- position sweeping over Europe to the United States and now visiting Can- ada under the auspices of the Brit ish Canadian Theatre Organization Society. The principal character, that of a young Japanese entrusted by his gov- ernment with a very weighty and perilous mission, has been played in Paris by the celebrated character ae- tor, M. de Max, in Berlin by Herr Ching, in New York by Walter Whiteside, described as the Ameri- can Martin Harvey, in Stockholm by i Ivan Hegdvist, and Frederick Harri- ! gon has chosen for the English repre- sentative of the part Laurence Irv- ing _ Maximo Castillo, the Mexican ban- dit, charged with responsibility for the Cumbre tunnel disaster, in which ten Americans and forty-one others Jost their lives, was captured thirty- eight miles south of Hachita, N.A.. by American troops. Albert I, king of the Belgians, broke his left arm when he was thrown from his horse while riding in the forest of Zignies, not far from the battlefield of Waterloo. GIRLS!

The loss of life was the largest in a wreck on Cape Cod in twelve years. i The Castagna from Montevideo for Boston with phosphate rock, struck the bar during a blinding snowstorm and sixty-mile northwest gale. beach patrol sighted her at dawn 300 yards off shore, with the surf breaking over her and threatening to pound her to pieces. The combined life-saving crews from the Nausett and Caboons Hol- low stations set up their beach gun and shot three lines across the Cas- tagna's geck, but the savers were 50 benumbed by the cold that they were unable to handle the breeches buoy tackle. The gale had moderated to 30 miles an hour, but thd surf was so: high that the life-savers had to wait some time before they could launch their lifeboat and pull 'out to the wreck against wind, sea and biting cold. Seven men helpless from ex- posure to 'the wintry gale were found on board, and lashed to the rigging were the bodies of Captain Garva and three men who had sue- cumbed to the cold. The life-savers placed the living seanien in their boat, and rowed back to the shore, one dying on the trip. The surviv- ors were carried to the Marconi sta- tion, where medical attention was given them. All were so greatly overcome. by exposure that none could give a coherent account of the disaster. JESUS AND PAUL IN DRAMA George Moore Purposes to Contrast Their Personalitiés London, Feb. 19:--George Moore purposes to write a drama in which the personalities of Christ and St. Paul are contrasted. The scene is to be laid in Palestine. § In order to study the country an obtain aceuracy of detail, Mr. Moore is about to start for Jerusalem. "What I should like to describe," says, "is the contrast Between dhe two characters--between an i mystict--that is Jesus--and Paul, the man in the full tide of belief. "That is what I am going to try to write. I don't say I shall sue- ceed, and 1 think I shall 'write it first as a story. That will enable me to become familiar with the subject, to 'get into' it. The play will follow later." CLEAN AND BEAUTIFY HAR NO DANDRUFF--25 GENT DANDERINE STOP WASHING HAIR! TRY THIS!
