cochrane of brantford on making the usual announcement from the pulpit on a recent occasion stated that if he were to read ah the notices and invita tions banded to him to be published the congregation would need about fourteen days in the week instead of seven to at tend to all these demands made upon their time some of these notices he did not believe in but there were others which were consistent with the work of the church still he thought that all announce ments outside of the special business of the church should be made public through the advertising columns of the press and be paid for as other advertisemente are and should not be made from the pulpit as the sacred desk could hardly be considered a fitting and prbpriate jtlace from which to issue advertisementa the
