Mr. J, FfU'e i], S'jperiiireudeiit of the Presby- ter! in Sa.laih School, Flesherton, intro- duced the question â- 'Ho-.v can we reach and help ncjleeted children."

Tiiere was not anything too bird that GrKl'a will niiiiht be done and to be exam- ple and tind our joy in our love to God and to man. Paul not only enjoyed the must ever cojiie first, we must never try to put any thing in the place of lioiiie, the school luu-it ever be subordinate to the home. While normal school teachers are nesded. the lireati'st need in a taacln.'r is a consistent life, the teacher has to plant b'lt it is Go 1 who giveth the harvest. W e must ni.ike the best of what we have, literature, helps conveniences, etc. The | speaker thought the average home is not ' a home of piayer, as too many have not j ihe family altar. What he wished to im- | press upon the parents was threefold, i teach your children good manners so that j they may conduct themselves propeily in the .school ;teach tliein to reverence God's name and d.iy ; teach them lo pray. Be- ware lest we lose even the form of prayer. Kev. J, A. Matheaon discussed Paul as a christian worker.

Tlioni thought union schools t'ater part of the day w.is all that could j at convenient distances apart would be a bedesir.-d. The school grounds were good thing, but seemed to think thit be4Ut-ful!y decorated with eveigreens there were not many negleeCfd children, and bunting.' Two dancing platfoniis â-  Rev.

The junior football mutch Letwecn Ceykn and Pricevilie Higli'andi»rs was hotly con- tested, and no score was made' The boys put up a nice, cle;in game. Donald McLean, South line, won out in tossing the caber, and Wes Theobald, Durham, was victor in throwing the shot. Per- haps the mcst eiithiisiastic event of the day was the tua-of-war between Ben Nevis Camp, Durham, and Scotts Greys, Pricevilla. The big Hielanmon of Scots (Jruys easily walketl away with Bun Nevis in the two trials. Raiti came on about 5.30 and pi evented the remainder of the program from being carried out. Jlf. Ed.Tiiomp.-ion Flesheitoii â€" Cater- er to the Camp â€" supplied everyone, free supplied everyone of charg:\ with a liist class supper in the Agricucultual hall. The concert ii. the ov.ening nSs pethaps the best in the history of the village. All 1 .seals were reserved and tlie coniuiitt-eo who attend school and m this way Ijnd out those who do not attend. Mr. Pickle of Matkdale dealt with the big loy problem" in a m.astcrly way showing that he is interested in the boys, lie th'uaht thit in the home the big boy does not receive enouah atention. the girls are l»ui;lit «nd carud for anc shield- ed, b'.it too often the boys are neglected. When they are little, wo compel theiu to go 10 Sabbath sehool but when they grow older we cannot do so and what then? the boy drifts from Bcho<d and ( l.iooften drif;s into sin and inio the down- â-  ward path. The speaker tiiought if we brou>;lit more love and cheer and blight- neas into our school and church services it would be helpful. We should help the growing boy to overcome bashfulness and associate with others.' We must win ihem by the o'.d urocess of love, and win them for Jo us; we do not realize the importance of this, if we allow them to leave our school unconverted they are on dangerous ground .and unless some to the spiritual needs of others. Rev. Dr McLaren of Euphrasia stilted th.it he had helped to set this association atioat and congratulated the president on the large attendance and the enthusiasm which prevailed. He took as his-subject " Sinning against the child," and said there was an impression abroad that sin could only be commitle<l against God, but be proved from the Bible that we might sin against a child â€" by insane parent.al authority. Some parents do not believe their child can do wrong. Another way in which a child may be sinned against is by a bad example at home, and the worst is their imication is laying the foundation of character. The treasurer stated that there was a balance of 810. SO in the treasury. .A vita of thanks was tendered to the Eu- aeiiia ladies for their generous hospital- ity, also to the retiring otScers for the work they had done during the year. This was consiJercd the largest and most enthusi-isiic convention in the his- tory of the association. â- The ilethodist church was filled in the afternoon, and the Presbyterian church in the aveuing was taxed to its utmost capacity to provide seating accomodation tor the audience. A hearty iuvitation was extended by the Vandeleur delegates to hold the next meetiui; in Wesley church, which was accepted. Mrs Thorn and the Misses Joy a union choir rendered choice music There are two sides to the Buying question. On one side i.s Qualitif : on the other side 9?rtee. We aim to combine, as far a.s po:3.sible, the good of each for the benefit of the appreciat- ive.
