B. Merson asked 'the Bynod to consider this carefully, He point- ed out the disadvantages ip that particular locality. The Church of the Incarpation is just south of the proposed church and he did not think it would be possible to maintain a new church, Bishop J. ¥F. Sweeney pointed out that "the. district was filling up and that the railway tracks served as a boundary line between the north and south, "Notwithstanding this, my Lord," said Mp. Merson, "I think the extension hoard bas made a mistake and the situation should be reconsidered. You will have two churches starving to death and I contend we should be more deliberate in starting new par- ishes." Archdeacon Warren did not agree with Mr. Merson and de- clared "I do not wish to be mis- understood but it is not proposed to form a new congregation. Gener- ally speaking, the building of a pew church in a parish. eventually leads to the formation of a mew parish. Everything has heen done with full cooperation of the Rey. Mr. Curtis. He is really the responsible party. "This congregation has been in existence two or three years. What is proposed -is they should be allowed to purchase ground and erect a building for church urposes. There are three or our groups or ' communities in Regent's Park and those haye to observed.. These people are de- sirou to have 2- building for a centre for their church and com- mupity fife. The Bishop has giv- en the matter deep thought and I hope the Synod will endorse the report." This was dopé and Mr. Mer- son spoke again, defending bis contention and asking for a new attitude on the part of the exten- 1 board, He deplored the "piecemeal" manmer. of building at present in vogue.

This and similar questions are be- ing asked today, said the speaker, and Jesus' answer is the one impossible of rejection, "by their fruits ye shall know them." If this test is not ap- plicable to the individual and to the church, there is no other answer, At the door of the church today, there is 2 rap and a call, "Are we they that should come, or "should we look elsewhere." Human need is just as insistent now as it was in the timc of Christ, and the church that does not satisfy the deepest needs of the soul is mot the body of Christ, No matter what its type .of service may IS OPENED & / Graduation Class, Ontario Hospital, Whitby ster, Oshawa; Bottom row--Miss Hope Duddy, intendent of nurses; Miss Betty Niagara; Miss Mable Parliament, Inglish, top row---Miss Hazel Heath, Stirling; Miss Myrtle Stokes, Douglas; The above picture shows the graduation class of the Ontario Hospital Nurses' Training School, Whitby, the members of which received their diplomas and awards at the eighth graduation exercises last night, Those in the picture are from left to right, Miss Stella Wickens, Stirling; Egansville; Miss Leah T.

The church' never forgets its unique mission, which is to make men and women aware that they are sons and daugh- ters of God, and put out a means of communication with Him. And fin- ally, the Church should show by. its footsteps that it is akin to Him, and provide 2 definité answer to the uery, "Are we they that should come or r shold we look els we look elsewhere?"
