The parlor concert at So1'RISE, the res idence of Mr. W . R. Climie, on Monday night was an exceedingly enjoyable atr~ir, liowelike and plea~imt. A very interesting program was happily rendered. Mrs. Phillips, nee Ltzzie Mnnson, Mhs Glover, Miss Mamie Beach, Mr.IH. Knight, and Mr. J. S.

Methodist church under tho suepicee of the Willing 'IVorkers,in aid of the'Missionary society, on Tue8day evening of last week, in epito of a heavy rain, was a grand success, surpassing all expectation. The h.ncy ar· ticles for iale, made principally by the members of the b·nd, were soon clisposed of, after which bread and butter 1md hot coffee was served to all. The program, consisting of recitations, solos, duets, and instrumental music, was rendered entirely by the children and proved a most pleasing and enjoyable one. The Willing Workera' Band is comprised of some 40 or 60 membera, boys and girls ranging from 8 t<> 16 yeure, with Miss Minnie J oness ae teacher. To Misses M. J onees a11d R.

EDITOR S'J'Ul:SMAN.-l read in the Guardian. recently a letter from a Dar. lington minister in which this aentenoe occurs: "Permit me to recommend all who want S. B. librarie1 to patronize our own Book Room. They cannot purchue better books or eheaper anywhere, and, moreover, by eo doing, they are prowot· ing the be.t interests of the church." Now, sir, I have po11ibly had tbe 11election of aa many books aa this minister or almost any other man not in the book buein!!se, and I am convinced that I c..n do quite as well at the book 1tore1 in Bowmanville a!I in Toronto. But what I want to know i11, How "thtiy are promoting the best interests of the Church " by "patronizing our oum book room 1 It may not be generally known to Meth· odiats that the · church, that ia, the denomination, not including the mini·· tere, does not receive one cent from the esles of the Hook Room. And whi&t i11 more, though we are frequeutJy urged to be loyal to the Giiardi4n, our own church organ, not one cent of the profits from ite revenue goes to tho church proper. True, n11 a medium for communication on denominational matters it ie a oottV;,nience and benefit, but financially Methodi11t11, outside of thfl preacher11, derive no hens· tits from it. It is 1mbstantially a joint· stock concern owned exclu·ively by ministers, and carried on by the grace of the General Conference under the auspices of the Methodist Church. Whatever profits accrue from the Book Room and the publisbiug concern go into the Superannuated Ministers' Fund and no other scheme of the Church gets a cent of it. lt is alright for the ministora to urge the people to patronize the Toronto concern, but they should be honi;st enou~h to tell them truths about it. In Bowma.nville, for instance, three of the four booksellers are Methodists, therefore it would be mo~t ungenerous,if not unjust, to give them the go-by and patronize a comparatively private concern that would monopolize the whole Metho· dist patron.. ge if tho minietera, like the one to whose letter we refer, conld have their way.
