years. Permission was granted. .

Rev. A. J- Reynolds spoke briefly on Foreign Missions, referring to the Kingdom oi God campaign under Kagawa in Japan, and deploring the apparent decline of missionary con- viction in the home church.

The Secretary reported that as the statistics were not complete, owing to the negligence of two charges in not sending their reports, that he be perm‘tted to give his report at. next meeting.

Rev. W. E. Aitken reported for the special fund that was raised by the Young People's Society for the M. and M. Fund. Of the $250 asked from the western section $248.50 was rais- cd. From the eastern section approx- imately $150 was raised. i

At tcn o'clock Presbytery met with the Minisierial Association in con irroiice with Rev. John Coburn. Rev. H. E. Campbell acted as chairman. Mr. Cobiirii adiocated a. definite and effective education along the lilies oi alcohol and its effects on the human body. The first and primary duty of the Christian Church is to create a conscience on the matter. The gov- ernnimt coiilrnl system gives appar- ,i~iit respectability to the liquor traf- llio. Uiirlcr it a tremendous social l pressure is brought upon young peo- ipie to drink. Yet vice is never‘ so iciaugcroils as when clad in the gar- ments of respectability". There are more homes today in government. control provinces in which liquor is commonly served than ever before.

Drinking has become more preval- crit among yvomcn. Never have so iriauy of our young people been led into this habit. Any institution that strikes at the home. at woman and youth is a deadly enemy of civiliza- tion. Government control drives drinking into the home. In 1927 ap- proximately 220,000 liquor permits were issued in the province of 0n- tario to rfiidents. In 1929, 416,000 permits were issued to residents of Ontario. The vast majority of that 196,000 are the youth. From an econ- omic point of view the spending of $55,000,000 a year in booze in On- tario is serious, but far worse than that, the goveniment control system is producing an increasing army of drinkers. In view of the peril and evil of a legalized system of liquorsalé, everything should be done to avoid lt. The weakest type of prohibition is to be preferred above government control at its best-

It was agreed that a convention be held at the close of Mr. Coburn's it- inerary. A committee was appointed to confer with other bodies interest- ed and in cooperation with them to make plans for the convention.

TRINITY UNITED CHURCH

Another of the well known and much respected former ember 0g this church was laid to rest in Sher- Wwd Cemetery yesterday afternoon There was a very good attendance at the funeral of the late iMrs W. W. Stanley expressive of the sympathy felt for the family.

Rev. Dr J. Phillips Jones the gon- crai secretary of the Social Service Council of Canada. in his address at.

text, Luke 4. i8. "He hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the broken heafted, to preach deliverance to the captivesund recovering of sight to the blind l0 set at liberty those that are bruised, to preach the acceptable year of the Lord," Dr Jones prefaced his remarks by expressing his pleas- ure at? again visiting Charlottetown and his appreciation of speaking to a congregation in Trinity Church. He gave in a very entertaining way the different lines of work in which the Social Council of Canada are engaged This organization embraces all the Churches, and has been in exLstance for 20 years. The next annual meet- ing of the Council is to be hold U118 year in Saint John which will be pre- ceded by several conferences held in the lvllaritimes, one of which will jbe held in Charlottetown.

Two very pleasing new features in the programme of worship which have recently been introduced are

the singing of "Gloria Pltri," after the reading of the Psalm selection and also the singing of the Vesper hymn at the conclusion of the ser- vice at night.

The attendance at Sunday School was 467. This ls very good consider- ing the rough condition of the streets,

the morning service spoke from the.

question presents itself to us today “What. does Jmus mean to us". Be- fore an answer is given there must be an intimate and personal know- ledge. The preacher emphasized that Jesus may be the ideal man to each one. the picture of the holy and all loving Father and the Iord and So~ vior of our lives.

Tbe service of praise was as trsuul hearty and inspiring and credit is due Prof. Kendall for the high state of efficiency to which the ch01!‘ has attained.
