Thos Crawford, ex- Speaker of the Legslature and at presnt Minister Without Portfolio in the Ontario Government, as Speaker of the House and Rev. John Locke of Owen Sound as Lieutenant-Governor, the first Parliament of the Young People's Society of the Owen Sound District met in the Methodist church here on Tuesday afternoon. This Parliament was taking the place of the auunal convention. Rev. H. H. Eaton of Flsherton was Premier and leader of the Government side' Rev. M. S. Elliott of Own Sound leader of the Opposition and R. R. Xicholson of Owen Sound, as leader of the Inde- pendant group The Ministers of the Government were composed of the Vice-Presidents of the different departments of the Young People's work, as Churistian Endeavour, Missions, Citizenship, Literature, Winter and Summer Schools, Finance and Records and Clerk. Each Minister gave his report on the year's work an'! each depart- ment had shown considerable advance over the previous year's work, the most noticeable being in Missionary givings, where an advance of $200 was niuiJp over the previous year's collections. Mr. Chas. A. Waite of Owen Sound was the leader of that department. The Parliament was held under strict parliamentary lines with one or two exceptions bing made to suit the occasion. Discussions on each report were entered into with great enthus- iasm by the members and Rev. M. S. Elliott proved to be an able leader of the oppositon. Considerable benefit was received from these discussions relative to the plannig of meetings and to further the work of the Societies, The Misisonary objective for the year was raised to $1,500 for the coming year and the general opinion was that the amount could be reached with a little more effort by the Vice-Prsidents It was de- cided to continue the League debates that were so sucessful last year and to invite other Districts to participate and send their winner for final de- bates. Resolutions were brought forward thanking the ladies for the bountiful meals given to the 175 members and other visitors, and also to the Hon. Thos. Crawford, who so ably presided as Speaker of the House. The list of officers for the coming year was presented to the House and this was adopted empowering the committee to make any changes that might later be necessary No doubt the discussions that took place on the subjects of church, Young People's work and of the problems of the country could only work one way, and that would be for renewed en- thusiasm in the work of the Societies.
