Webb Resigns Galt Baptist Charge "Among False Brethren." Galt, March 4.--At a meeting of the congroization of First Baptist churéh tho resignation of the pastor, tev. W. S. Webb, was unanimously accepted, and will take effect within three months from last Sunday. In his letter of resignation Mr. | Webb intimated that his relations with the congregation could not en- dure long. He gave as his chief rea- son for his decision "the tragic lack 0! co-operation with which my ef- forts have been met." Ho referred to opposition to his efforts to have slight alterations made in the choir stalls, and to the fact that his request for financial help to make publicity possible in connection with a special series of sermons was met but half- heartedly. He also complained of not receiving the support he should have during an evangelistic campaign. Mr. Webb charged that he had been brought here from Whitman, Mass, last May under false pre- tences, having been told that a par- sonago would be bullt, He had also been refused a telephone in the house, Instead of co-operation it had been a case of "perils among false brethren." - -------- MARCH 1S THE CATIA ~~ MONTH IN GERMAN It Has Heraided Revolutions Since the End of the Great War.

The tricolor won at Kingston by 10 to 6, and yesterday's score 'makes the total on the round 13 to 6. On the play the winners deserved the victory. There was considerable rough stuff, and Refer- ee Mike Rodden kept the penalty time-keeper busy "during the latter part of the game. The winners had more speed that the locals, and while their game could be classed as a defensive one, they made enough attacks to keep St. Mike's defence busy. For the winners Reynolds and Carroll were best, although Boucher played well when he was on the ice.

There is no 'other company between Toronto and Montreal giving its en- tire time tq the salvage and sale of used cars and the new project should be successful to a great degree, es- peciallly since it has a running start by reason of Mr. Palmer's four yedrs' experiénce in the used car market of this district already. Many citizens are expressing great interest in the new concern nad it is not likely that the limited issue of stock will be on the market for a very long time. DIED AT ADOLPHUSTOwWN N.

One ni THE DELEGATES RETURN From Big Toronto Liberal Convention and Are Great- ly Pleased. The Kingston delegates to the On- tario Liberal Convention have re- turtied to the city and all are great ly pleased over the result, The elec- tion of a provincial leader was the ehief business and the selection of F. Wellington Hay was a cause for general satisfaction, |The spirit of the convention wae optimistic and the immediate out- look for Liberalism is regarded as most favorable, indeed there is good ground for the conviction that at the coming elections the Liberal party will sweep the provine, Discussing this, one delegate said: "The Drury U.F.O.-Labor com- bination has done #ts best, but it could not have done much worse, It bas almost bankrupted the province in a periqd of three years and has been utterly unable to put into prac- tice the ideas of economy they were pledged to. There has been a riot of expenditure and the highway and road policy has raised a universal complaint that the government can do not to relieve. It must either force the municipalities to pay the assessments direct ar pay it out of the revenue of the government. Either way makes little difference, for the money has got to be raised. The people are looking for a change rom inefficiency to - efficiency, and the record of past Liberal adminis- tration was a splendid one." The delegates all came away feel. ing benefited and carrying back with them confidence in the party and its new loader, The uel meeting of the Kings- ton Liberal Assockition takes place this month and th¢re will be several speakers who will'deal with organ- ization, ete. will sing ght only.
