The church referred to is the one which the editor attended in childhcend and so is of special inâ€" terest to him, but the condition deâ€" scribed â€" prevails in many more churches and has prevailed for a genâ€" eration or two in our own experi ence, so is of general as well as vital interest. We have met Mr. Parkhouse and he is in the habit of calling a spade a spade. The desâ€" patch says: A letter was read from T. S. Cooner, Acricultural _ Revresentative asking for the coâ€"operation of the Council in the Home â€" Beantification and PReferestation nlans of (Grev (n Meeting _ adicurned _ to meet on Anril at 1st o‘clock for general Meeting _ adicurned Anril at 1st _ o‘clock business. " The sccial whirl of this little Seottishâ€"settled town on the Grand River has been providing too much comnetition for the Sunday School of Melville United Church, Beecher Parkhouse, assistant superintendent told a general meeting of the conâ€" gregation . The school had been unable to enâ€" list the services of any women teachâ€" ers for two of its ‘teenâ€"aged ciasses said Mr. Parkhouse, and he asked the congregation to vote on a mc tion to drop the Sunday School enâ€" tirely. After considerable discussion the mrtion was withrawn. Since last October, said Mr. Parkâ€" house, no less than twenty perscns had "come forth from one Sunday to another, and kept the teachers‘ chairs warm, but there has not been any continuity in the teaching." "I have thought of inserting an adâ€" vertisement in the paper for a teachâ€" er which might have read: ‘"Wantedâ€"In a church of approxiâ€" mately 1,000 members, lady teacher for _ a class of ‘teenâ€"aged _ girls. Teacher should preferably be withâ€" out a car and without relatives so that there will be a minimum of Sunday interruptions, and _ should not be trying to ride more than a dozen horses on the church and sociâ€" al merryâ€"goâ€"round. These girls are above the average in intelligence and appearance and will probably respond to some woman possessing Bible knowledge who will expend mental and spiritual sweat on their behalf. ‘This church raised over $2,700 last year to save souls in other places." Dr Charles W. Bishop, chairman agreed the congregation was not supâ€" plying leadership for the young people." â€"Confedcrate.

PROGRESS OF GREY COUNTY BEAUTIFICATION SOCIETY Rural Beautification is being quickâ€" ly organized at the present time. Letters have gone to Urban Municiâ€" pal Councils asking coâ€"operation in the planting of all spaces along the street where no trees are to be found. The suggesiion is given that emall trees could be secured from the side roads in the adjoining townâ€" ships and that High Schooi boys and Boy Scouts do the actual planting under supervision of a Committee made up of Council men or others interested in the project. High School Principals have been requested to alâ€" low the boys time for such projectâ€" actual tree planting experience. Morecver, the _ Junior Farmer Clubs have been written to and all members asked to plant maple trees along the front of their farms _ and up the lanes from the road to the farm buildings.
