It will be built front and rear of cement blocks, and will be covered with fire proof roofing and it is intended to use the brick wall to the south belonging to Mr. M. E.

A.M. assembled to say' (are; well to Bro. James Low on the eve! of his departure .for Vancouver. Bro. Low is one of the most popu- lar and highly esteemed members of' the lodge, and the brethren could not allow him to say good bye withâ€" out in some way giving expression to their high esteem for him as well‘ as present him with a token of re- membrance.

The! selection of A11 Fools’ day for the exploitation of the red light efiects, hasits moral, and it is not hard to decide who has been “fooled.” The Borden government has been “foolâ€" ed” if it expected smooth sailing; if it expected that it would be able to satisfy the platform or platforms on which it gained place and. power, The country was “fooled” 8' it ex- pected that the new government would in action justify the weird theories upon which it appealed for and gained popular support.

He explained the nature of the struc- ture, which he said would conform to the requirements of the Fire by-law. It was pointed out that the proper procedure was to apply to the town clerk for a permit for the erection of the garage according to the require- ments of the by-law. The committee will meet at an ear- ly date to consider the matter with a View to having the firm start work at once. ing, and expressed his regret that the lodge was losing such a valued mem- ber and the town an ideal citizen. Rev. J. Wallace, P.W.M., then step- ped forward, and in a. few well choselg remarks presented Bro. Low with a solid gold Masonic ring. on the grounds of the loyalty of its leaders and followers, on the grounds of its hostility to any pos- sible disloyal element. It was claim- ed that there was disloyalty in trad- ing freely with our neighbors to the south of us and that the idea was approved of by the electors. The flag, British connection and imper- ialism were the keystones. Bro. Low made a suitable reply in acknowledgment. Addresses were also made by Bros. H. Brimmell, R. Nugent, James B. Begg, A. Robertson, A. M. Fulton, G. ed as Chairman, and in abrief ad- dress stated the object , of the gather- H. Wilson, A. Mills and T. C. Mat- chett. The first departure from the loyal policy was wnen Mr. -Borden, in forming his cabinet, submitted to the dictation of the leader of the Nationalist elementâ€"the arch-type of what our Conservative friends call “French domination,” and took into a super-loyal Bsitish cabinet three Nationalist ministers, giving them the portfolios appertaining to the largest spending departments of the government; with the result that the Borden government has broken into a saturnalia of extravagant expen- ditureâ€"forty millions greater than in any year in the history of thd country. When the new government came in- to power we were to have the ne temere quashed; we were to have peo- ple know when they were married. We were to have instant justice; but when a private member of the govâ€" ernment party brought in a bill to make marriage uniform and draw the teeth of the hated ne temerc decree, the loyalist government and its supâ€" porters voted it downâ€"and among the members who joined in this in- consistent vote was the member for West Peterboro) so the matter was shelvedâ€"the responsibility shirked -- by referring it to the Supreme Court :with the certainty of prolonged de- [lay, and the title of a man to his [wife, hung up in doubt indefinitely. Another of the first acts of the government, elected on the loyalty and British connection cry was to kill the contracts for ships for a Ca- nadian navy and do nothing in the way of assisting in imperial defence, though Mr. Borden himself regarded the matter when he was in opposi- tion, as so urgent that he wanted to hand over twenty-five million dollars to the British government to build Dreadnoughts at once. When he got office and responsibility he shirked it and is going some time in the syveet by and by to consult the Brit- ish Admiralty. This shirking of duty would not be so bad if it had noté been done at the orders of the Na-; tionalists and Mr. Bourassa. The Borden government has mark- ed the session by further displace- ment of sponsihility â€" shown its inability to do its own business, by the appointment of commissions. These commissions are so numerous that the commissioners, to the num- ber of forty-eight, have been- appoint- ed, at an expenditure of hundreds of hundreds of thousands of dollars to do the work of ministers. , One of these commissions serves to .further show Mr. Borden's failure to ;connect with his promises. He was ‘righteously insistent upon a pure lcivil serviceâ€"men must not be disâ€" ;missed Without cause and they must ibe replaced by men chosen for merit. Yet in all the history of Canada [we have never ,had such a slaughter ’of the innocents, such a riot of place hunters as under‘ the Borden govern- ment and the merit of the dismissed and the merit of their successors so little heeded. Mr. Borden appointed a commission to investigate the civil serviceâ€"really to flag a dead horse by trying to find crookedness among the appointees of the late govern- Vment and to create vacant places for Conservative camp followers. The 'personnel of this purity commission litvself, convicted the government of insincerity. Two of its members rest ’under grave charges of improper con- ductâ€"one is said to be a convicted criminal, a very practical applica- .tion of the police theoryâ€"«“set a thief [to catch a thief." The report goes on to speak of what it costs a minister to fit him- self for his- calling and to provide a library. It points out that'in other 000 to $50, 000 per year; that the highest salary ,paid any clergyman in Canada is only $7,000 while the av- erage salary for Presbyterians in a city is $2,000 and in rural sections about $900; that the minister should be a married man; that he should be ‘in a position to keep up the dignity ‘of living has increased more present minimum salary of $850 with There are thousands of women with .harsh, faded, characterless hair, who 0 not try to improve it.

His congrega- tion is generally quite content to let the minister slave away for the same old salary year in and year out with- out saying a word as to an increase. Not all congregations, be it said, are of this mind, for we have had called to our notice a report submitted by a Laymen’s Committee at the last meeting of the Glengarry Presbytery which has the true Christian ring to it and should. bear fruit in larger salaries, not only in Glengarry and among Presbyterian churches, but throughout the whole of the Domin- ion and in every denomination. years ago.

We congratulate the laymen of Glengarry Presbytery on this report. It shows that they are liberal broad minded, and generous; that they have the true spirit of religion in them, and that they appreciate the work of those who are preaching the gosâ€" pel of Christ. The laymen of every any clergyman should be paid. The report them says: “In view of the foregoing your committee are strong- ly of the opinion that no licensed Presbyterian minister should be ask- ed to preach and do pastoral work for a less salary than $1,200 and a manse.” Altogether the session has revealed that the government has disappoint- ed, by its lack of efiective work and its failure to implement its promises and justify its policy, not only the people. but its own friends; the latter are secretly disgusted, but still loyal â€"-as the Nationalist ministers subor- dinate their} principles to the reten- tion of their salaries, so does a cer- tain class of government supporters swallow their disgust in hope of Sa- vors to come. “Principles be blowed.

The recognized LINDSAY POST. 1 As a rule in Canada it may be said that Presbyterians pay their minis- ters as well as, if not better, than any other denomination; a free manse Iand $850 is the lowest that any one received and in all conscience that is low enough. What shall be said how- ever of congregations of other de- nominations which do not attempt to pay anything like that sum ? The most scandalous case of the kind that has come to our notice is one in a place not a hundred miles away :from Deseronto, where a clergyman of a certain denomination (not Pres- byterian) is actually expected to sup- port himself, a wife and two chil- :drcn on a miserable pittance of $700 1 i 30. year. Why, a boot black doing a . good business, will make more than that. A common laborer on the street' earns nearly as much. The ordinary mechanic in any city in Ontario is ipaid a. higher salary. And yet this iman, a university graduate, who [spent years of his life and thousands I Presbytery in Canada should follow the example of these public spirited Presbyterians of Glengarry and pay their clergymen what has been fixed as the lowest salary that should be ofiered a minister. of dollars to fit himself for the church, is expected to dress well, live well, educate his children, buy books and medicines on this wretched a1- lowance. It is a disgrace to any church in this rich Province of On- tario that such a salary should be paid to any man; and the sooner the members of this particular congrega- tion, who are quite wealthy enough to pay a much higher salary, wake up to the scandalous parsimony that characterizes the treatment of their minister the better for them and for the church of which they are unworâ€" thy members.
