STRATFORD PASTOR THINKS IT STANDARDS, Stratford. March 28.—Rev. L. 8. Hughson, who has resigned from the pastorship of the Ontario Street Baptist church, preached the con- pastorate yesterday, and-has announced that in ending his pastorate here he was also leaving the Baptist church, to enter the ministry of the Presbyter- ehurch. Dr, Mughson said his ision in this matter was the result of Diwine guidance. He also express- ed the view that the Baptist church stood In need of a broadening out of its doctrinal standards, and should be more liberal in its requirements for membership. Dr. Hughson» ii his statement “For a long time I previously ex- perienced a growing uneasiness con- eerning terms of admission to our membership and communion vice. The Baptist theory concern- ing the church is that there is con- tained in the New Testament a com- plete church, with prescribed organ- ization in fyll, which may not be modified. On this assumption we are shut upto the High church idea, which repudiates the genuine ‘church’ status of other denomina- tions, but when we look abroad and recognize, as we must, that by all the marks of spirituality and service they are as much blessed of God as e, we must somehow revise our as. This I have Gone. and it has d me‘to believe that the underlying principle of the Baptist church is not justified by the New Testament, and that there is'aliowed to the ehurch the right and duty Of furtber development under direction | of God. . “It has now become a necessity for practise regarding communion membership, or to go where such | liberty is allowed. Under the plain leadings of Providence | have been | led to adopt the latter course.~~That my decision is right has been* con- firmed by all manner of signs, and I | have resolved to unite with the Pres- byterian church if they will receive me. I cannot tell you the greatness of the regret with which I have come to this decision. Ties of brother- from misunderstanding of my mo. tives which I shall infaHibly meet. 1 also wieh that I might be saved from casting a stigma upop views of ‘things which | have earnestly held olber Way. “In conclusion I wish to say that I know full well that there ts no in- | tended unbretherliness on the part of the Baptists. They are acting in | loyalty to what they believe {ts the - HEART FAILURE IN FORTY-! “the cause of death.

Lady School Teachers ! Lodge Serious Protest TEACH AS WELL FLL AS MEN— DE-| MAND EQUAL PAY FOR EQUAL WORK—NO SEX IN BRAINS. (Toronto Glabe) * “Equal Pay for Equal Work, a@ subject introduced by Miss Bb M. Pettit of Ottawa. kept the womelt | teachers busy for an hour yesterday | at the convention : “There is no sex in brains,’ was| Miss Pettit's first gun, and she con-| tinued: | “If we women had stood out for, equal pay wé'd have received it. If, there was equa! pay there would be! no question of the position going to) the cheapest bidder. i “Equal pay would raise the stand- ard all round. If a woman is doing as good work as a man, and her! standard is as high, she should re- ceive an equal reward. “Women,” said Miss Pettit, ‘are; as capable as — They are more} conscientious minor matters. | They have greater foresight than men. They have proved their pow- er to organize, They have succeeded | as Principals where men have falled,| and a poor woman is better than a} poor man any day. In apite of this. however. we all know of many poor men on the teaching staffs of Ontario, who are getting better salaries than) good women.” | Juét here a cutting from an Eng- lish paper was handed up to the | Presideat, Miss Evelyn Johnson of| London, who read: ] “The argument that men have) more ‘responsibilities than women is | a hollow one. Men are aot paid on| that basis, and, alk of re-| sponsibility is “there anauikee for man's sense of the sex superiority. | If responsibility were the basis in the, payment of men, why would not the! married lawyer with six children de, mand higher fees than his bachelor rival?" One of the Ottawa teachers rose to) federation in a protest against being paid $700 less for teaching the sen- for and junior third than a man’ who had taught the senior third only the: year before Another teacher thought that the) equal pay standard would stabilize | salaries for the men and would do | away with underbidding | Work On Basement | Temporarily Suspended | Excavation work for the proposed | new basement under Knox church, has been stayed for the past tew | weeks, but will be resumed, it is © pected later on. when conditions are| more favorable The plan of having the excavath , done by day labor, _ without someone ght of the work. hasn't been —. out satisfactor-, lly, and in. one place the workers were undermining the church foun- dation There are some of the church wilt-of Ged, and most earnestiy wish ‘that all Chrigtiane would see ae they, | do. “Also I wish it plainly understood ! that no spleen nor hurt has Induced| GUNN'S “SHUR GAIN” FERTIL- IZER The best fertilizer at the lowest price.

Dr. Hazen, and the music consisted of a solo by Miss Vera Gray, and anthem by the choir, “Oh Jesus Thoy Are Standing.” Music in the evening Was an an- » them, ‘Grant us Thy Peace,” the Hallelujah Chorus, a solo by rs. Darroch, and trio, “Praise Ye," by Miss Scott, Mr. BE. F. Finkbeiner and A. W. Zurbrigg. A departure from the usual was a | splendid address by the pastor at the evening service on “Three of Our Greatest Hymns," preceded by |an introductory talk on sacred song. Wm. Cowper's, “God -Moves in Mysterious Way;" Charles Wesley's, “Jesus Lover of My Soul;” and Isaac , Watt's resurection hymn, “He Dies, The Friend of Sinners Dies,” were the three hymns chosen, the first two—- as masterpieces, and the third be- cause of it's appropriatness to the Easter occasion. After something of | their history was given, these three numbers were heartily sung by the { congregation. Of the seven thousand hymns com- | posed by that genius, Charles Wes- ley. who wrote three a week for fifty consecutive years and on his dying | bed dictated to his wife the last one, ‘the four which Dr. Hazen thought ranked as his masterpieces, were “Jesus Lover of My Soul,’ “‘O for a Thousand Tengues to Sing,” “O for a Heart to Praise my God,” and “Hark the Herald Angelis Sing.” “Joy to the World,” and "When I Survey the Wondrous Cross."" were considered among the best produc- | tions of Isaac Watt, that great founder of English hymnology, who with Charles Wesley, towered above all their predecessors or contempor- fes as writers of sacred song. the pastor stated. Cowper’s hymn, “God Moves in a Mysterious Way,” he sald, to be the greatest hymn of Provi- dence in the English language Speaking of sacred song, Dr. Hazen described true religion as full of hope, joy and love. It Wag there- fore natura! that it should tend to express itself in songs of praise. The Christian church, he stated, lays great emphasis on the service of song and not without good reason, for jt is phe best medium by which we can press our feelings of spir- itual devotion. Songs, he said, make an appeal to the heart In a way that even the most eloquent address can- not. Singing in God's house, said the pastor, should never be professional, but devotional; not for entertain- ment, but for worship; never a per- | formance for display of range voice or culture, but as Paul gays, “With grace in Our Hearts unto the Lord.’ The essential thing is not | Voice and culture, but soul and char- acter Dr. Hazen emphasized the great importance of entering into the spirit of the hymns and condemned the ask for the moral support of the) practice of those who were dispos- ed to sing in a giddy. thoughtless way, the sacred prayers contained in our beautiful hymns He urged the congregation to make a study of the hymnue-and their authors Card of Thanks— Mrs. James McKeever and Mr Mrs, William McKeever and family, to thank their many friends, including the Masonic Brethren, for {the eympathy and kindness shown them during their recent bereave- in the death of Capt.
