NO. 2, ELMA | Was.a happy medium for a term ant eo —4 red today there is a.) pod of the decision being almost unanimous in favor of-the change from the pres- ent indefinite pastorate system. “The restlessness of our age de- mands that we make some altera- tions in our method of calling min- isters and I believe that the seven- year pastorate, as suggested by the General Assembly, is a wise com- promise,” said Rev. W. R. McIntosh. “Formerly both congregation and minister were contented to work to- gether indefinitely, but now it is a rare man, indeed, who can please everybody year in and year out for a lifetime. “On the other hand, it is not de- sirable to have a term too short,” ex- Plained Mr. McIntosh. “A minister usually does the best work after he has become acquainted with the needs of his congregation and has really; understood the type of citizenship to | whom he is preaching. I fully anti-! cipate that the remit will receive} the indorsation of the local Presby-/} tery, as it did in Sarnia and Peter-| boro. I am also satisfied that ad.| system will work out of excellent ad- vantage, both to minister and con- | gregation.’ | Would Avoid Friction Rev. T.. A.

He pointed out that there were other features to be considered in the | “result which deals-with the general settlement of pastors. “The normal pastoral tie is for seven years, but this tie may be brok- en on the request of either the con- gregation or the pastor,” said Mr. McGregor. Ejther party has the priv- ilege of severing or renewing the pas- toral whenever it is considered to be in the best interests of both parties. “In the working out of the system there will be three committees for‘ the local presbytery, the synod and: the assembly, respectively. Every con- | gregation becoming vacant wil con-: sult with the presbytery committee and make any representations to it that it feels are necessary. “At any time after one year the pastor or the congregation may make an appeal to the first committee for achange.

There is a charming picture of Jap- anese childhood in Mr. ¥oshio Mar- kino’s “Wien IT Was a Child”: “Whenever I was naughty ‘they never smacked me, but they always brought a looking-glass in front of my crying face. I hated to see my own face so ugly with the tear marks, and { immediately began to laugh. Very often when I- wanted to cry a little Tonger I used to scream, ‘Oh, on’t show me the glass for a few moments , “< as ever scolded severely.’ They zeae told me. ‘You are a very nice bey but just at this moment some evil is trying to dwell in you. How pity the evil is making you a bad boy and giving some trouble to .}your dear parents.’ And 1 began to feel so sorry for them, and used to cling to their necks and say, ‘The evil is gone long time ago. I am your favorite boy.’ “T entered into the grammar school when I ve years seven months old. It was only a few days before I entered into the school I saw a famous Japanese play played by some amateurs in the village. There was a little Samuri boy who suid, “When one is born as a Samuri he must not say hungry eveh when he Starves to death.’ This boy was sup- posed be about the same age with me, so that impressed into nity little heart very deeply. Now, being in the school for a day I repented that I entered into it, but recolleeting that ‘ed a single complaint. i nurses, and neighbors asked me if-I ‘liked the school.

Never . “Perhaps the most important clause outside of the normal pastor- ate, is that concerned with the elim- ination of competitive preaching. A congregation must decide on each pastor as they have heard him and if they do not issue a call within six months the presbytery has the power to settle him This latter provision also meets, with the approval of the clergy. Rev. Mr. MacGregor explained that no congregation could have an unfair ad- vantage over angther if they decided on one minister at a time, instead of hearing probably a dozen and then making their choice. | CARTHAGE | Mr. and Mrs. James Lamont moved from our village last week and have taken up their residence in Burns. | Miss Hazel Mayburry spent the! week-end under the parefital roof.

Some of our friends among the grocers, in speaking of our letter to the press on grocers’ profits, have indicated that apparently it has been construed by some readers to mean that Red Rose Tea was the only ar- ticle on which the grocer takes a smaller profit, in order to give his customers a higher quality. It was not our intention to convey! such an impression, as we know that most grocers sell well known*brands! of other goods at less profit than they | could -make on some brands equal- ly well known, and for the same reas- Tea, simply to give their customers | the best possible value. , } Flimsy The difference in cost be- tween Silver Plated spoons and forks that are one hun- dred per cent right and those that are ‘“‘nearly right"’ is camparatively small.
