Until late in Sept. strangers occupy most of the| pulpits and our disappointment was |. often great to find a very ordinary |; preacher instead of a worldâ€"renowned |. mian behind the sacred desk, The Sabâ€" baths in London were mostly spent in the South London Presbyterian Church whose pastor is Rev. Ri,. McEwen "a good man who speaks the truth." Seyâ€" eral other less noted preachers occupied the pulpit auring summer and only one Sabbath did we hear the Dr. himself Probably the four best known men j whoimn we heard are Rey. John MceNeill, l Rev. Dr. Joseph Parker of the City Temple, High _ Molborn, Rey. Dr. \Stalker of Glasgow and Rey. Canon Wilberforee of Westminister Abbey. ' Of these 1 do not hesitate to say that in my opinion Rev. John MceNeill is the| ' greatest preacher. Though perhaps not so scholiuly as the others yet there is a lruggvd directness in his forcible sent |ences that reaches the heart, His love E for plain, sumple, gospel pt eaching stays | by him, â€" Mis power over his sudience is| wonderful and he is a dull soul indeed | who is not stirred by his eloquent and 1 often touching appeals. The others are ‘ so well known through books and papers that comment here is unnecessary if not lsuywflunus. It was a pleasant reflecâ€" tion however on hearing these noted ‘men that in the midst of all the folly l;nnl indifference and crookedness and pleasureâ€"seeking, eyident in these great cities, men of such undoubted ability, inen of such strong moral fibre, men, let us hope, of the purest motives are holdâ€" ing up the Word of Life as the orly means by which humamty may be ‘mnm elevated to the place intended | bv the Creator in the scale of universal )t With regard to the manner in which |p tho Day of Hest is kept here I shall say | a but Slitcle, Although in some streets | T many stores and shops are open, and z goods are displayed in the windows and | 1 about the doors, although vendors of all | t sorts of small wares are offering their t merchandise for sale sometimes it would |l appear â€" more importunately than on | q other days, although fruit staads are |: open on many stree? corners and a good | C business is apparontly being done, alâ€" though â€" street . cars and trains and |® ommnibuses avre everywhere running as : on other days, yet if the population be | , considered, I believe the Sabbath is |! observed as well as generally in Canada. S t.\ll the heavy traffic on the streets (‘ ceases. There is said to be in London | constantly a floating population of from | 200,000 tc 300,000 persons who are ‘ credited with doing most of the trayellâ€" i ing outside of the flow of the working people to the Park and home again. The parks on a warmn Sunday afternoon are worth seeing. _ Kensington and Clapham Common are two of the best. Here thousands of people are lounging about composedly, sitting or walking in groups or may be gathered around an earnest _open air preacher who thus strives to do good. â€" All are orderly and the utmost decorum is generally obâ€" served. Most seem glad to get away from the crowded street or the recking close to enjoy the fresh air of lu';wcn‘ and "God‘s own Sunshine" which they seldom see in their humble tenements in the back streets. In some of the other Parks, a distinctly different class of people is to be seenâ€"people with whom the world has not gone so hardâ€"people whose dress, manner, conversation and appearance show to b of a bettrer class. Buch is City life, Birds of a feather flock together, The Parks are someâ€" times called the Workingâ€"man‘s Paraâ€" i dise. Un Sundays and other Holidays No PREACHERS & PEOPLE. he resorts hither to break the monotony of eyvery day lifeâ€"whether at home or l in the shop. Be it so, they are better 11 thain the saloon and the influence is in | the main wholesome, Men with their : wives and families can thus spend the |: day together in the open air _ and || whether conscious of it or not they go home the better for it,. â€" Other influences for good are not neglected. Good men and women, by selfâ€"sacrificing labor and often by the expenditure of large sums of money are endeavoring to give light | and comfort to many who are utter; strangers to the inside of the churches.| None know better than these devoted Christi in workers the utter darkness and j hopelessness of many lives in all these] HOW SUNDAY IS SPENT. Value of the Parks. DURHAM THURSDAY, NOVEMBE 4, 1897. ut‘ ONTARIO ARCHIVES TORONTO great cities. To attempt to give them the gospel without adding some degree of comfort of a temporal chara »ter seems so futile that every means whereby the moral status of the population is raised is welcomed as a gift of God. MHence| Fresh Air Funds and Excursions, pro-! vided for by noble philanthrophists, to bring many of these poor people to the country where they come in contact with nature and though nature iuto\ closer relationship with nature‘s God. Hence also the great utility of large open | Parks in the yery heart of the cities themselves,. â€" In spite of {the best efforts ‘ of woellâ€"intentioned Christian men, there are thousands upon thousands dependâ€" ent upon the Parks for their supply of pure fresh air and this only at inter vals of days or perhaps weeks. Let us not therefore be uncharitable enough to condemn indiscriminately the manner in which so many thousands spend their Sabbaths, It is not pleasure they are seeking so much as the very lifeâ€"hblood that flows in their veins and in that of their innocent children, Lauses fully haif the sickness in the world.
