In cities and larger towns throughout Ontario committees are being formed and arrangements perfected for a general canvass to commence May 12, The first phase of the effort, a canvass of ministers by ministers, was begun in March and is nearing completion, The local committee in this diss trict is emphasizing in its prepara- tions the call which this province makes upon the Churches for maine taining a high standard of spirits nal leadership. Communications have beén ree ceived at local headquarters stress. ing the serious situation confront hurch of Cry ing the two ¢olleges of Victoria University, Emmanuel and Victor- ia, in their efforts to measure up to the requirements of church ahd province. Chancellor's Statement "With the growth of recent years and with the coming of church union, only one building at Victoria hes been sufficient to meet de- mands and that is the men's dining hall," says Dr. R. P. Bowles, chan- cellor and president of Victoria University. As acting principal also of Vie- toria College, the arts college of his university, Chancellor Bowles points out that buildings erected in more than 300 students have now to care for 800 students in arts, without making provision for iLuv students' in preparation for the ministry. I's A] Principal From Rev. Alfred er, D.D,, L.L.D., Prineipal of Emmanuel Col lege, has come the statement that of The United Church for the train. ing of ministers and missionaries is without buildings end equip- ment." His reference is to Em- manuel College, which has been created by a merger of Union The- ological College, formerly huox, with the faculty of theology'ot Vic- toria University. The sum' of $1,200,000 is men- tioned as required by Victoria Uni- versity to take care of these needs of her two colleges. "lI Belong But I Do Not Go" A Story for the -- Children - 1892 for the accommodation of not "the central and largest institution' "Was it a puch of wrong or a statement of fact one man was making to another about his church? They met casually and were, discussing neighborhood mats ters. When the church was men- tioned, one said, "I belong there but never go." On being question- ed as to why, no good reason was given, himself being the judge. Mi- nor things assumed major propor= tions from the personal point of view or through obliquity of vision I do not know in his case what ex- cuses were given, but I think I could supply them. It may have been because the minister did or did not wear a gown, because the sermong were too long or dealt too much or too little with current af- fairs. It may have been the music, too much of it or not enough. Some- times members do not attend be- cause of the presence of other peo- ple. who are objectionable or be- cause, of objectionable men in the Session. The list is interminable if one sets out to construct it. I am not speaking of ill-health or age. Every congregation suffers from this sort of thing. At times it as- sumes the proportion of a spiritual epidemic. Members who do not at tend services do more harm than they think. It is not an idle saying in scripture, 'Neglect not the as- sembling of yourselves together." If we neglect the ordinances of the church we thereby help to destroy them. A Complimentary Vote Membership in the church gives 'God a complimentary vote, but by non-attendanée our influence and example are against the church. We are not helping forward the work which Christ and His disci- ples fhitiated, but we are counted against Him by the world. None attendance is the back door of the church and means after a time non membership, if not for ourselves certainly for our children. No ex- cuse can justify absence from the worship of God's house, It erects itself into an argument against Christ and His church.--Dr. Wil- liam Melville Curry, pastor, Ninth Presbyterian Church, Philadelphia. } MINISTER REMARKS-- me church members, like wheelbarrows, will only go as far as they are pushed---and even then they are difficult to move. It is true that beauty is only skin deep, but that ought to be deep enough to suit any ordinary more Some folks are like kettles-- they will sing though they are in hot water up to their neck. Haven't you noticed that those who are always giving themselves away are not worth having? I have met folks who didn' t need to turn out the light to be in the dark. --A. F.

B ALL ARE CORDIALLY WELCOME { Church on Sunday. I was once wall behind a very handsomely dressed young girl, and thought, "I wonder if she takes half as much pains with her heart as she does with her per- son!" A poor old man was comiug up the walk with a loaded wheel- barrow; and, just before he reach- ed us, he made two attempts to go into the yard of a small house; swing back before he could get through. "Wait," said the young girl, springing lightly forward: "I'll hold the gate open." She did, and received his thanks with a pleasant smile. "She deserves to have beautiful clothes," I thought, "for a beautiful spirit dwells in her hreast." ==Little Corporal, In. City Churches ST.

LUTHERAN SUNDAY SCHOOL IS OPENED IN LOCAL CHURCH Rev. A. C. Hahn has opened a Lutherail Saturday school, with the purpose of giving the older pupils of the Sunday School a wider bacn- ground of religious education. The clags meets in the pastor's study every Saturday morning at 9.30. It was felt that the work done in the Sunday School classes was hardly adequate for intelligent churcu membership, and to overcome this deficiency the Saturday School was begun. As text books the school is us- ing a small Bible History contain- ing 79 Bible stories, and 'Luther's Small Catechism'. The history and purpose of Luther's Catechism was especially stressed, in view of the fact that the booklet is exactly 400 years old this year. The Lu- theran congregation fully concur- red in this movement for more thorough religious training, as shown in the resolution, that "eve- ry pupil of the Saturday School shall receive the text books free, at the expense of the congregation." More than 600 horses took part in the recent annual parade of van animals in London. Nearly 94,000,000 pounds of rubber were shippepd from Sumat- ra in the last 12 months, SIMCOE STREET PENTECOSTAL MISSION (OVER THE ARCADE) Sunday, May 12 Sunday School 10.00 a.m. Worship, 11 a.m. Evangelistic Meeting 7 p.m. Prayer Meeting, . eight o'clock.
