Many study entirely at home aod others study partly at home and finish at the business College. This chain of Colleges and its Home Study Department train over two thousand young Canadians annually. Its graduates are to be found in the leading positions through- out Canada and United States. Any young person, who is desirous of bet- eling Secretary of the S. S. Com. mission), Rev. G. I. B. Johnston (Rural Dean), Rev. R. W. Alf, Rev. Mr. Pilcher, Rev. Mr. Tyner and Rev. Mr. Battersby. The first session met at 4.30 p.m. owing to the delayed absente of 1be Rural Dean, Rev. R. W. Allin, was appointed chairman. After the opening prapers, Rev. KR. A. Hiliz gave an address on a suggest: ed constitution for Deanery Sunday School Associations. It was de- cided that an annual meeting of the Deanery for Sunday Schools should be held in Oshawa. The Deane then adjoutned for refresh a theo evening session 'rommenced at 8 o'clock, Rev. R. W. Allin in the chair. After the opening pray: ers and bymn, the program was proceeded with, the first uumber being the report of the nomination committee. It was decided to re- dnce the number of officers, as it was thought there were too many for so small a Deanery. This was followed by a speech from Rev. R. WV. Allin. He wished to-empha- size the fact to those who were elected as officers that it was their duty to fill that office to the utmost of their ability. In conclusion, he said that those who found any difficulty in dotng this had only to write to Rev. A. R. Hiltz, who is always ready and willing to give any assistance that may be helpful to them. The following officers, superin- tendents of Deanery Departments, were elected. Teacher Training -- Mrs. zard, Markham. Font Roll and Primary--Mrs, Schofield, Oshawa. Adult Bible Class--Hon, W. H. Hoyle, Cannington. Home and Missionary--Rev. R. W. Allin, M.A, Whitby. Statistical and Finance--Rev. A. F. Barr, M.A. Haz- Literature -- Mrs. Ux- bridge. Then'an address was given by, Rev. A. R.
