James' church 'celebrated its 1arvest thanksgiving and the versary of the church on lay and the occasion was marked by the dedication of the new Sun- lay school hall built in memory of : late Archdeacon Macmorine, for many years rector of the parish. The service was conducted by Rev. T. W. Savary, the rector, assisted by Arch- deacon Dobbs, and Canon Fornier. Bishop Bidwell was the special preacher. The church was beautifully de- corated with flowers, sheaves of grain and fruit, and the harvest music was brilliantly rendered by the choir. un- der the direction of Mrs A. R. B. Williamson. Bishop Bidwell spoke from Chroni- cles, IX, 9:--'""The offered willingly to the Lord." The occasion, he said, was most unique, being the seventy- fifth anniversary of the founding of the church. It recalled many of those who from time to time had minister- ed in the church, notaoly the late be- loved Archdeacon Macmorine, so well known to all. St, James' church always contributed admir- able and leading men, such as the late R. V. Rogers, whose name will always stand high on the scroll. It is when we think of these and the great many who have in the interval passed to their rest, that we realize the truth of the communion of saints. Referring to the progress made in the work of the church, the Bishop offered his heartiest congratulations to those who were carrying it on at the present time. "The present," said he, 'is a time for rejoicing. God is not averse to our making his hoase a house of beauty, provided there is no com- pulsion about it, and it is here that a great contrast is found between our churches and the temples of earl- ier ages which are monuments of the | days of slavery. Our churches are | the people's free-will offerings. There , was a time when it was not thought | proper to beautify and ornament a | place of worship, but. it is a mistake to think that God does not want us | {to make His house beautiful. In the church we are all brothers and sisters and we ought to forget all { outside distinctions. Here are dis- | pensed the means of grace." | THe bishop referred also. to the i place of the church in the important | events of human life with which it | was identified, and it filled a large | | place in the Christian education of | children. He congratulated . St. | j James' people upon the new Sunday | | school building. Instead of the Sun- | | day school being the least important, | it was! one of the most important | | parts of the work the church had to | | do. | "God cares for the whole man. | This is the truth of the harvest | | thanksgiving. 'Be not overanxious | for the things of this world, because ! the heavenly father knowth ye have | need of these things.' We thank God | for the spirit of the joy of thanks- | giving to-day. The members of St. | James' church had always shown a | spirit of generosity in the support | of their church and it is a great | | privilege to be able to take part in | i the ceremonies of the day that recalls | such a record of achievements and | | 1s so full of promise for the future, In addition to the harvest hymns | | beautifully rende: ', an anthem | "Praise The Lord" was sung very | effectively. -------- Memorial Hall Dedicated. The Macmorine memorial hall was dedicated by Rev. T. W. Savary, as- | | sisted by Archdeacon Dobbs, Canon | | Forneri and Canon J. W. Jones. Rev. | Mr. Hiltz, general secretary of the { Sunday school commission, Toronto, | was the special speaker for the oc- casion. i The new hall is Octaganol in shape, each side having windows of | | cathedral glass. The main floor is! subdivided into many class rooms | { which form a part of the auditorium when the partitions are removed. | There is a gallery with large seating { capacity. | for the occasion and the singing of | the children, led by the church choir | { was beautiful. Amo=g those present | | wag Miss Mary E. Rogers the only | | person in the congregation who took | | part in the opening of St. James' church, . i- "Rev. Mr. Hiltz gave a most inspir- | | ing address, taking for his text, | "The Lord hath done great things | for us, whereof we are glad." He | congratulated the rector, the church | wardens and the congregation upon having such a fine building. It | brought with it a responsibility and {all are called upon to do his and her | part in the work of the church He touched upon the qualities so essen- tial to success in every endeavor, and | showed a marvellous faculty in adapting his remarks to the children whose attention he held throughout. | The building was crowded | At Chalmers Church. There was a large congregation at the Sunday evening service in Chalmers church. Rev. Dr. R. J. Wilson delivered the first of a se- ries of sermons on "Night Scenes From the Bible." His subject on this occasion was "A Young Man's First Night From Home." There was a large student attendance. angelistic Services, Most profound attention marked the service Sunday night at the Pentecostal tabernacle as Evangelist A. H. Argue stirred, the hearts of his hearers by a most telling talk on 'prophecy. He gave scriptures fore- telling the auto, the aeroplane, the submarine, and the return of the Jews to Palestine, together with the close of the Gentile age; all coming Corns Go! You Bet!

The tabernacle is lo- cated on Queen street, near Barrie. i Civic Apathy Prevails, ° Rev. W. T. G. Brown in Sydenham Street Methodist church on Sunday night preached a vigorous sermon on "Citizenship," in which he de- plored the apathy in civic affairs ap- 'parent all over the country. Elec- tors would pot assume any respon- sibility, but were vigorous in denun- 'ciation of failure and neglect on the part of those who do. Everybody wanted somebddy else to do the civic work. A good citizen, to his mind, was a good Christian, and vice-versa; a good citizen was one who sought the best for himself, his city, country and God.

At Westport on Friday four resi- dents of the district were scheduled to appear before Police Magistrate William 8. Murtch on charges of | intoxication.

Mayo of Roches ter, Minnesota, roally did say at dinner in Londcii, England, the germs 'would be the ammunition © the next war--wael!. Col. George CG Nasmith, C.M.QG., cf Toronto, isn't a all convinced, Col. Nasmith is famillar wit' =#Arms, tco. Wren the great wo "-oke out he wae director of labore rories, Department of Health, Toror to. When thie couflict came he offer ed his services, aud became adviser i: sanitation, etc., to the First Canadia Contingent, and for eighteen month commandéd the Canadian mebile lab oratory in France. "Dr. Mayo is reported as expecting war to become one of bacteris dropped from airplanes over enem: cities," an Interviewer said to Col Nasmith as he was making some scientific test or other in his office in the Confederation Life Building. Col. Nasmith smiled. "Are you sure that Dr. Mayo said it?" he ask- ed. When informed that a cable made the afirmation, Col. Nasmith laughed a little. » : "Get away from the question of humanity, and come down to cold- blooded practicability," prefaced Col. Nasmith in comment. "It's the busi- ness of armies to kill and destroy. Yet, respecting the prediction attri- buted to Dr. Mayo, it is interesting to | recall that no epidemics were started deliberately. Why? Well, if an epi- | demic had beén launched by one army, it would have heen a boom- erang, recoiling on the sender. Con- sider it in this light, and you will perceive that common sense is oppos- ed to such a thing between armies. I don't know which army had it first. But both suffered." "During the war, Col. Nasmith, there were rumcrs of poisomous wells," cbserved the interviewer. "There was never any proof of such a thing during my time," Col. Nasmith replied. "In 1916 I repre- sented Canada on the War Allies' | Sanitary Commission in Paris. We took every angle of 'infection and | contagion, and there was no evidence | submitted that disease germs had been or were being used." "Science would combat sciance if Dr. Mayo's fears were realized, Col. Nasmith 7" "Certainly. If the enemy. in the | last war, had desired to uss ine germ weapon, they would havo atiempted { It with typhoid and cholera. Mut { they didn't. Now. as between armise, the germ systema vould hit back, and, anyway, the mr ied would net de- velop fast enouy'? "Say that germs were dropped from the skies, I see only one condi- tion under will the pian miaht operate: If Geodany were at war with the United States, German air- | ships might cross the ocean and drop their war-to%ens ox American territory. The s:-ead of the disease back to the Germans, ia such an event, would be barred by the seay. But difficulties are manifest." "Then, Col. Nasmith, while Dr. Mayo's forecast is interesting, the world need not be downcast at the possible horrors?" Col. Nasmwith nodded assent, and then went back te his little powders and his work of mystery which the interviewsr had inreiTupted. And tha colonel wus as calm as ever. Good hip Means Service.
