The church was crowded, many from a disâ€" tance being present. Rev. T. W. Mills, the pastor: delivered an excellent memorâ€" ial sermon from Matt 10: 39: "He that findeth his life shall lose it : and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it." Campbell was a wellâ€"known Bentinck boy, who answered his country‘s call by enlisting with the 147th battalion. He was first reported missing, then killed in action, and was the first of the old 147th from this locality, to pay the great sacriâ€" fice. # V.

The other mistake was in temperance people thinking the victory was now completed. Rev Ben H Spence, on behalf of the Ontario Branch of the Dominion Alliance spoke morning and evening in the Pres Church, Sunday. He told how 2400 churches in Ontario opened their pulpits to temperance pro;aganda. In the mornâ€" ing he traced the growth of temperance sentiment before and since war time, dealâ€" ing chiefly with Canada in which every province but Quebec had prohibition, and even there only «99 â€"municipalities out of 1100 were under license: â€" FLESHERTON Lillian Buskin (hon), Herbert Haney Harry LeGard, Ottile Lockhart, Susanna Ludlow (hon), Lillian Morton, Frank Stewart, Gertrude Stinson, PRICEVILLE DROMORE Dromore list arrived last Thursday, tut as our papers were then printed, they could not appear last week.

A later meeting is to be held when School opens to give recognition to all others School but the boys must be organized With a large chart, displayed on platâ€" form, of the "Canadian Standard Efficienâ€" cy Test," founded on the fourâ€"fold deve‘â€" opment of our Saviour â€" " And Jesvs increased (1) in Wisdom, (2) in stature, (3) in favour with God] and (4) of man, he had much good advice to offer. The fourâ€"fold increase as noted in our Savior s life was (1) Intellectual, (2) Physical, (3) Religious, (4) Service, and this was the aim or should be the aim of every normaj boy, It was natural for the boys to form groups, which goon tbrought leacership, and it was important that this should be guided so that it might be wise and proâ€" gressive. _ Athletics alone was of no use to a man, but a proper coâ€"ordination of the four developments should be aimed at. _ It should be adopted in every Sunday The idea of the meeting was to recognize and acknowledge appreciation of the work of the 20,000 boys of ‘teen age in the proâ€" vince, who, the speaker affirms, are this year helping out production on farms as a means of "‘doing their bit." Mr. Geddes is a returned soldier, and being a fluent speaker, gave a graphic account of some war experiences in the trenches and on the battlefield. _ He gave a clear impression of what shortage of food meant for Britain Belgium and France and said it was necâ€" essary, even for Canada, to have a strong boys‘ work pregram in every community He cried shame on an Ontario town he knew, that had a reputation of never havâ€" ing sent a man to the front. Mr. Geddes, representing the Nationzl Resources Commission appointed by the Ontario Government, had the meeting in charge. Mr. Irwin, in the absence of the Mayor, was chairman and a number of paâ€" triotic and musical selections were given by local artists.
