Al- | though it was admitted that it was a [matter of history that a ministry of | women existed in the original Christ- lan Chureh, and in the church of the first few centuries, yet the Presby- terians would have none of it, and while they were grateful for the ser- vices which were rendered by wo- men in official and non-official capa- { cities, they were not prepared to ad: mit that the women were as yet cap- able of filling the office of ministers of the gospel. The matter did not come in for a very lengthy discus- sion at the assembly, but it was de- bated sufficiently to show that there were very few real reasons why wo- men should be debarred from taking up the ministry as a life work. One reason put forward was that the intimacy of the duties, and the limitations involved in the fact of Sex, would debar women.from mak- ing successful ministers of' the gos- pel. To the lay mind, it would seem | that this was an argument in favour {of having women pastors. The ma- | jority of church congregations have |® greater percentage of women than |ot men in their ranks, and if there Were any questions of intimacy in | the malty at all, the balance would |seem to lle in favour of the women, In matters concerning women, it is Quite evident that women could more efficiently act as ministers. and the factor of sex would be a very strong one in this respect. Then again, with the church Organizations large- Iy women's societies and clubs, a wo- man minister would be a far great asset than a mere man, and would be of more use and practical aseist- ance. ' It is a matter of record that some women have heen very successful as preachers. Some lady students of Queen's university have, during the past few Summers, served as student. preachers on the mission fields in various parts of Canada, and they have given eplendid service and done work.

June 16.--Dras- tic alterations in the present system of handling liquor through drug stores will be Proposed at the annual convention of the Saskatchewan Pharmaceutical Association to be held here the first week in July.

The chemists charge profiteering on the part of the wholesalers appointed by the government; they also declare the margin of retail profit is too small, and that they find the regulations providing for checking records and inspection place too great a burden on them. in ------ FIERCE HAIL STORM. ---- Gale Wrecks Barns, Levels Crops and Smashes Windows, Eganville, June 16.--The wind storm which struck this district on Sunday left disaster in its wake. A large number of barns and out- houses were torn to pieces and a large model bank darn owned by Mr. Wilkie, was moved ten inches on its foundation. A. Nitzel, a tarmor also living in the Augsburg district, lost $1,000 worth of machinery by his machine shed collapsing and the contents being smashed to bits. Large haflstones smashed many win. dows in town and in the rural dis- tricts, and many fields of grain were destroyed. Luckily no one was in- jured.. The whole storm only lasted about ten' minutes, -- More Than One Way.
