UNITED CHURCH Rev, T. P. Perry, president of the ay of Quinte Conference, was thi preacher at the Sunday evening an | inal session of the Young People Conference, which was held in Sim coc Street United Church, The sul ject of Rev. Mr. Perry's sermor | which he preached before a congre | vation that filled the church to tli | doors, was "A New Day of Faith. Ie took his text from the gospel oi l.uke from the verse, "And the Apo tle said unto the Lord, increase our laith," to a 'Christian. world," said | | io use the faith they have." | Ucrry referred to the great days of faith in the past and with them such names as those of Martin Lu ther and John Wesley. "Great periods of faith were not times of great material prosperit) and abounding wealth; they were times of hardships, danger and suf- fering; when men and women rosc to do great things for the Lord." These people who had faith in God were not barred by the impossible. Then turning to conditions of the present day, "Our own times are no casy times," said Mr. Perry. "We are confronted on every hand with that which\seems to forbid our pro- gress." "Not easy things make great men," the speaker inferred and stat- ed that the men who are successes in the world today and the men who will overcome the present trying conditions are those who have faith in God, That people cannot have faith in themselves unless it is linked up with a faith in Jesus Chrjst was a thought expressed by Mr. Perry. "People must have faith in these days when there is so much going on in the world to destroy faith." Rev. J. S. I. Wilson, assistant pas- tor of Simcoe Street United Church, was in the pulpit with Rev. Mr. Perry, as was also J. C. Anderson, president of the Young People's Conference, and Stephen Saywell, the newly elected president of the Conference, The regular Sunday evening congregation of Simcoe Street United Church was augment- ed by delegates to the convention and many young people who have been in town attending the sessions unofficially. The music for the service was di- rected by the organist, R.G, Geene, and a contralto solo was sung by Li Mrs. B. K .

Taking as hig subject "Japan at the Cross-Roads," Mr. Stone deliver- ed an interesting address on the development of Christianity among the Japanese people, and made particular reference to the progress that was being made by missionaries in counteracting the activities of Communists. Mr. Stone's address was heard by a 'arge congregation, which in- cluded many of the delegates to the Young People's Conference convention, KING STREET UNITED CHURCH The gospel of the cheerful Chris- tian was splendidly put forward to a large congregation in the King Street United Church last night by Rev. Archer Wallace, noted author and editor, of Toronto, who was in the city taking part in the young people's convention. Speaking from the text, from Paul's epistle to the Romans, "Let not your good he evil spoken of," Mr. Wallace said Paul wished to impress on the Roman Christians that they ought to be good, but that they should not go around rubbing men the wrong way, nor with long faces, nor should they be bigoted, intolerant and narrow minded. Naming irritability as one fault of which many good people are guilty, Mr. Wallace pointed out that a man who got drunk was not considered respectable, but that a man might be irritable and cross, and yet he con- sidered respectable, Yet this habit nnllifies the good he might accom- plish as a Christian, - "There are many Christian. people," he ¢aid "who need self-control, and to havc more consideration of other people Losing control of one's self, aying back-biting, nasty thing is worse than getting drunk." Another mistake which many peo ple made, said Mr. Wallace, wa that they thought God would be bet ter pleased with them when the: were sad than when they were hap py. "It is quite possible to be pur and undefiled," he asserted, "wi ut going into a convent or ster Ti very fact tl an th a mon re Christian erful, be make people than wi 11 ke } God wl! than when we y Tov shall last as long as Go «that will be forever.

ALBERT ST. UNITED CHURCH A large congregation was in at- tendance on Sunday morning in Al- bert Street United Church on the occasion of a visit paid to the church by Rev. Manson Doyle, B.A, secretary in charge of Young Peo- ple's work in the United Church of Canada, who Drought 2a message that while particularly addressed to the young people of the congrega- tion was also of great interest to the older members in attendance. In his remarks Rev. Doyle spoke of the place taken by the gifts of God in the form of human talents, which he said should be used to bring forth worthwhile accomplish- ments, It was most important, he said, that advantage be taken of the gifts that were given us, for if these gifts were not used to the advance- ment of God's Kingdom, as they were intended, we would be deprived of them. Particularly was this so among young people who in many cases did not realize that they had the requisites for service, and al- lowed themselves to drift away from service to others, The greatest tes- timonial to Christianity today, Rev Doyle maintained, was the lives of young men and women trans- formed to christian life and endea- vour Religion today was the most at- tractive and holding factor for the young people of the community, as- serted the preacher, who said that he was not trying to argue that there should be no social side to the programs of the young peoples so- cieties, but rather that there were numerous places where amusement could be obtained outside' of the hurch. The church was the only pl religions' satisfaction be obtained.

PALESTINE BUILDING BRISK Many beautiful buildings erect- ed recently are changing the ap- pearance of several towns and cit- fes of Palestine. Within the last 12 months the change has been especially noticeable. Among the Jarge new structures at Jerusa- lem are the High Commissioner's new castle, the combined Jerusa- Jem Municipality and Barclay's bank offices, and the King David Hotel, More than 5,000 building permits were granted in 1930, nearly 1,000 more than during the previous year.
