Rev. Dr. Armstrong. The first address of the evening was given by Rev. Dr, Armstron~ of Ot- tawn, ex-moderator of the general as- sembly of the Presbyterian church, who took as his subject, "The Child In the Midst." Dr. Armstrong sail pleased to be present at the conven: tion, and regretted very much the fact that he couRl not be present at the other sessions, which were held. The speaker said that the teacher that he was now in the Sunday. school should prepare himself for the teaching of the Bible, t |The teacher should er Imow! of the from 'whi would teach his . scholars." There should be great emphasis placed on the word, "teaching." The teacher must train for this téachine., and must also study the boys and girls in his class. On one oveasion the speaker had heard of a man .who h said to a child, "get og of my way. in reply, had said, "they make men out of little Fids like mp" This was trae, ¢nd the question should be asked, "what are we doing to make good men and women out of these children ?"' There was never a time when more attention was paid [ the children than at it "Some say that child study is a fad," he contifived. "Well, if it is, all 1 can say is that it is a good fad. It will mean a great gain where the church puts the child in its midst. The child must be educated, The word "educated" is one of the greatest words in the vocabulary as far as the boy or girl is concerned. I a child is to know something of the world he should enter with a thought of God who made the world." The speaker referred to the child when learning his ABC's, and said : "I would be thankful to Carnegie, Roosevelt or anyone else who will make a reform in spelling and thus help us along in this labor. We should not waste e over difficulties when there is so much to be learned." The child should * be led into fullness of this literary It was a t mistake not to train the child from the Bible. The church should never allow the child to get a knowledge of the scriptures. No education was com- ete without the religious education. 0 a certain extent the knowledge of the Bible was dying out in the schools. When such was the case, it was time that the church and other religious bodies awakened to the fact. "Surely there is no employment on earth so sweet, so useful and so near to the heart 'of Christ as taking hold of the little ones, and bringing them to His feet," said the speaker. "We min- isters | have to feed the grown up sheep; you teachers prepare the food for the little ones. A farmer was once asked how to feed his lambs. He re- plied by stating that he gave it to them often, a little at a time, and that he aleo gave it to them warm, 1 would ask you to give it to the little ones warm and a little at a time so that they can digest it." the intelligence, Breeze From Pacific State. Rev. W. C. Merritt, of 'facoma, Wash., who delivered an address on Tuesday was aghin called upon, and he gave a 'most interesting talk. He referred to his message as a "Breeze From the Pacific Slope," To use his own words, he had 'a message of warmth with a tonic in it," He veferred in opening, to the great soucces of the Pacifie coast, but stated that the greatest crop of all was that of the boys and girls. He urged that as much as possible be done for the "In saving British Columbia, Al. berta and Saskatchewan, you are sav- ing your own children for a future which shall be an honor and source of great pride to you and to the world." es How To Teach.

"And will it be worth while to have this tystematic Bible study ?"' he ask- ed. "Yes, I say it will: There is no other source of giving the Christian Power and touch with the word of Oa, A, It was a great thing ta have an op- en door into the homes. The work should not be alone to the homes of the members of the church, Other homes' should be taken in, The home department had great possibili- ties for the Sunday school. The speak- er was positive of this from his ex- perience as a worker and an observer, Canaon- Greens; of Orillia; then -- fol lowed with an address on *The Pro- motion of Bible Study in the Homes of the Pegple--Its Necessity, It's Pos- sibilities," The speaker said that the church and the world were too friendly, If permitted he would use the word "chummy." The two could be seen walking along the pathway of life arm in arm. Which is which? If one was asked the question, the answer would probably be, "I fear I cannot tell." The church and the world were taking steps which appeared doubtiul. They walker on crooked paths. *What we need is the family altar," he continued. "The Bible should he taught the children at their mother's knee. The is not taught in the public schodls, and I will never agree with the school system until T see the Bible as the chief text book, God com- mands that we study the Bible. God said, "search the Seriptures." 1 we do this it will help us to walk in this crodked world," "eo In his concluding remarks Canon that the Rible ia the 'most popular: hook int 'the world, anc made a tron appeal Jor She reading of the good' in omes. The secretary, Dr. Frank, D. Price, 'gave a most interesting account of the work carried on by the International Bible Reading Association, and fifteen minutes was given over to distugsion on all the addresses. i The closing address of the morning was given by Rev. Dr. Schauffler on "When To Teach." He said that the Lord never blessed a lagy-woeked, but did bless a laborious 'oworker, 'The world needed to be saturated With prayer, The speaker urged that chil- dren be told the Christ stories in their early years, and gave some valuable information for teachers in the train: ing of children. "Scholars are swift," said the speaker, "and we as teachers are slow. I once read a sign on a rail road roundhouse which read as fol- lows : "No engineer shall take his en- gine out with less than 120 pounds of steam." [I thought that was very good, and 1 want to say that no teacher should go into a class 'without having 120 pounds of steam on. You may be sure that the boy of the class will have steam on, while you come with your boilers cold. "In this way you lose the attention of your class and you say that you cannot do 'any- thing with the scholars. Put on steam and vou will be able to meet the scholars. ' Scholars would do 'their duty when it was pointed out to them. They would no doubt be trying at times, but one should nat forget his own childhood. The teacher should never lose patience. ore adjournment at 12:30 pm. a hearty vote of thanks was tendered Rev, Dr, Shauffler, Rev. W. (".

Chrysanthe- mums and Barberries. Rockwood hospital was the scene of extremely pretty wedding, on. W day morning, and the whole institu- tion seemed en fete. For at half-past ten o'clock Rev. W. H. Sparling, B.A, Methodist church, married Miss Edna Webster, daughter of the late George R. Webster, of Brockville, to Thomas. Somerville, - of Dundas, son of the late Robert Somer- ville, of Glanashields, Scotland. The bride "was given away by her cousin, Charles Webster, of this city, and looked very sweet and girlish in her bridal gown of white pena cloth, over tpfieta, skirt and bodice draped with chiffon, and trimmed with bands of satin embroidered in white roses. The bridal veil was caught to the Huffy olden hair with orange blossoms, and the bride's bouquet-was-of roses and lilies of the valley. Her bridesmaid, Miss Muriel Web- ster, wore blue radium silk, with a pleated skirt and guimpe of blue chiffon and lace insertion, the sleeves laced with-pink velvet. She. also wore a pale blue picture hat with white plumes and pink roses. . Mrs. Webster, the bride's mother, was gowned in black net, over white taffeta, with trimmings of Valencien- nes lace insertion, and a yoke of Irish crochet, Miss Boyd of Brockville, the bride's aunt wore pale gry sik colienne, with bertha of cream lace, and much smocking in its construc tion. W. Wishart VanEvery, of Peter: boro, was best man. The square hallway, where the. cere mony took -place, was made beautiful by branches of autumn leaves, chiefly the rich dark red foliage of the oak, and with beautiful sprays of barber- ries. A large bridal 'bell of white chrysanthemums, surrounded by smaller 'bells of the same flowers, marked the exact spot. where the bridal party stood.. During the cere- mony Miss Anmie Scott and Mr. Ar buckle played soft and lovely music, and the wedding marches before the service, and after the words 'were said pronouncing the happy couple man and Wife. After the cefemony breakfast was served in a large. apartment down- stairs, the forty or more ouests sit- ting down at quartette tables. In the midst, and just opposite the. door was the bride's table, circular, and_ centred by the ing cake. Lovely white chrysanthe: 8, with a few pink ones to accentuate their smowiness, were upon this table, and pink eama- tions decked the guests' tables. Over the bride's table was a white chrys- anthemum bell, and streamers of white satin ribbon came down from it, and were caught with bows.to the table. Mr. and Mrs. Somerville went east on the noon train, their destination known only to themselves. The bride wore for "her travelling dress navy blue broadeloth, smartly tailored; with blouse of pale blue silk, trimmed with Valenciennes insertion. A navy blue felt hat, with shaded feathers and tulle completed the costume, Among the guests in town for the ceremony were Miss Rowan and G. R. White, of Ottawa; Mrs, Hayward, Miss Gill and Miss Jackson of Brockville; Miss Jean Bertram and James Bert- ram, Dundas. Though Mrs. Somerville has not al- ways been a Kingston girl, she has come in for all the kind wishes that always follow a mative on her mar riage, for since she has been here she has endeared herself, by her winning ways to all who have met her, ROBBED A SMALL BANK Queen Street Methodist Church, Tuesday Night. Some time on Tuesday night, Queen street Methodist church was broken into, entrance being obtained through a window of the basement, which, pre- sumably, had been leit unfastened. The thieves made straight for the primary department of the Sunday school and, with the aid of a knife, now in the possession of the police, entered the cupboard and rifled the contents of the glass bank in which the children had placed their offerings for the past few Sundays. The strange part of the case is the manner in which the of- fenders made straight for the cup board and, leaving all the silver plate stored therein, made off with a few dollars 'in the bank. This pdints to the work of small boys who knew all about 'the building and the cuphoard in which the money was stored. | As yet no suspects have been arrested but the police are on the "lookous' for boys with money and an arrest is ex- pected at least to-morrow.
