Trhe fourth annual convention of tho -YounIg People's Societies ini the Presby- tery of Whitby, was held. in, Pickering,' on Oct. 1 9th, Dr. McGillivray, the prsident, presiding. T.here was a large representation from the societies, Oshawa contributiflg abont a score as it quota. In the twelve pastoral charges of the presbytery-embracing tw#entv congregations-there were at the cisc ,eOf 1895 fourteen Y. P. societ- ,es-ail but two being Christian En.; dea\vor So jeties, (two have been added snce). The membership at that date wa.ý 5 - of whom 204 were young men anid - 1;o comTmunicants. The amount of rfl)lev raîsed in 1895 was $421, of ,hich about $50 were for running ex- penses of the societies, the rest being contrbuted to other objects, $134 going to iLpplemnent Glenora Home Mission Fciin SManitoba. The report of the Converier of the presbNterv.s committee on Y. P. societ- es shnwed that the efforts of the young peyeare flot confined to raising monu*-that being. indeed, quite a m.nI' ohct-but that they are earn- e.:v egaged in various forms of chrstian activity and and benevolence at homec, and thus, as well as in their meetings, are training for wider spheres of usefluncss in the 4uture. The programme was varied and in- teresting, and the papers and addresses gven were eicceedingly creditable to ther authors, and helpful to the audit- ors, and the loyalty of the young people s evdenced by the fact that of the twenty-eîght persons named ar con- tributîflg to the programme, ail were either present or had sent their papers to be read at the convention. one item off exceptional interest was the report of the Rev. R. D. Fraser, convener off the assemblys committe on Y. P- societies, as to the plan pro- posed by that committee, as instructedt by General Assmbly, for bringing te , doctrine, policy. history and work of tue church more adequately before the younig people through their societies. " The plan proposed is, ln brief, that, say tive minutes off each meeting be given to doctrine, the shortercatechism being1 the text-book. and one meeting (the4 second) in each month to the,- polity,1 'iistory and work of the church." Thei t piîcs suggested for 1897 are "Why are we l'resbyterians." Fotïndation work: John Knox and his imes. The Westminster Assembly. How the busi- ness Of the church is done ; ber contri- rtons and courts. Many streams, .une river:ý the story off the unions and ite present strength off the church. T he reinaining six topics are on the vork, as represented in the various 'beesoff the church." The com- 1m1ttceu have arranged that in the Pres- Vtran Record off each month the tup br the following month be dis- Lý>ed by competent writers, in order t', a-ist in preparation for these meet- ne.g. They also suggest other helpful l-raiture relating to the topics.
