The Methodist ministers ot' the f‘liar-
.lottetown District inet together \\`et|-
nesday afternoon at 2.30 in the llcartz
Memorial Hall for the first session of
their convention. Those present were:
Rev. J. L. Dawson, B. A., Chairman;
ofthe District; Revs. E. Bell, H. Brown
E. Weeks, L. Jewett, ll. Miller, E.
Westmoreland, J. Leard. F. Sawdon.
F. Littlejohns. Letters of apology
for absence were read anti accepted
from the Revs. E. Styles and G. Or-
nian.
The first address \vas given by the
Rev. E. Bell on “The Sermon that
t-ounts." in an interesting and profit-
able way Mr. Bell einpliasised the ne-
cessity of procuring light and guidance
as to the message. Also the necessity
for unbounded faith in Gotl, ami ti deep
conviction of the truth of our iiiessage,
coupled with an earnest cxpcclaiicy
i'or results. He fittingly gavo cxnin-
ples of great preachers anti ways in
which their sermons have toltl.
The Rev. F. W. Sawdou, of Mount
~ being scourgetl for their past abuses
of others.
“We further ask, if (‘lii'ist as ti man
were here would he fight? We may
be led to answer 'No,' because we too
often fail to appreciate anti recognize
the greatness and completeness of the
Master's character. l-le said He came
'not to bring peace but the sword.`
'l‘lius viewing things from this stand-
point we may be led to ask, is it right
for a Christian not to tight? To-tlay
wc are suffering because we have as
a nation followetl too long the cause
of non-resistance. Had Britain some
years ago refused to tolerate the ‘sick
man ol' i-]urope,' anti had driven thc
i'l`urk out ol' Europe the present war
might liavc been avoided. We have
been dwelling iii thc peaceful vale.
anti liavc tleterioratt-ti; our civiliza-
tion is as fast slipping from our grasp.
and it sccnis as though Gotl has had
to bring about a cataclysiii to break
down thc mitioiis in order that llc
might builti thcin up again in the right
way. The pres-ciit war, like the f`.ivll
Stewart. followed with a good paper on
“The Best Method of Pastoral \\lork."
After`tletiling with thc great value of
the personal touch in thc niiiiistcr's
work, lic iiitiinatcti tluii cat-li pastor
must prove by experience the value tit'
the many methods einployctl, anti
should choose out that method which
he finds brings about the best results.
Heart-to-heart discussions followed
"""' "'l"”esl=es. which in turn was
followed by fervent prayer.
.oe business of tho afternoon callcti
for the rcport of thc 'l‘cinpcraiit:t- t‘oni-
niittcc of thc District. The Sct~.rciary_
Rcv. ll. Miller, rcportctl that litcra-
turc oi' an ctiiicative cliarztctcr had
bccn tlistributcd throughout the rurnl

Flllll-finir a convention for the inecting
of nil Methodist ministers on the ls-
laiid, with the Rev. T. Albert liloorc.
D. D., and his associates, to discuss
matters of tcniperance and moral rc-
form. lt was resolved that such ti con-
vention bo arranged t`or, to mcct, if
convcnicnt. at Kensington on l\iarch
24th and 25th. Failing Kensington.
the convention will be hold in Char-
loitetowii.
Last evening a public niet-ting was
Il_cld in the Heartz Memorial iiall.
'Iwo excellent addresses were given
by Rev. E. A. Westmoreland and Mr.
 D. Seaman. The former spoke upon
The War and the Spirit ol' f`lirist."
 Westmoreland said in effect:
Pills subicct leads us to ask, ‘ls it
right for a Christian of fight? What-
Gvcr our answer bc, we cannot bc-
lieve it to be right for the (lliristiaii
under any conditions to strike the first
b|0\\'. Many assert (‘.iirist taught un-
conditional iioii-resistant-.t=. But (‘hrist's
teaching on the subject rcfers purely
io personal wrong. When. however, a
brute wrongs a neighbor, the priiiciplc
of non-resistance is no longer applica-
ble. Hence we as fflirisiians in tht-
Dresent crisis must fight.
“To my mliitl the words being clear-
l.V written across the fields of Europe
i°'i1l=\y. are: ‘God`s jiistice.' Much as
we may be sorry for the Belgians to-
lll\i'. we know they are suffering be-
cause of their late ruler's terrible
deeds in the Congo. Each of the other

that we are living under two laws. the

(Special to the Guardian.)
LONDON, Jan. 28.-A Central News
despatch from Copenhagen gives a
report that an attempt was made
several da_vs ago to assassinate King
Constantine of Greece. This report
was coininunicated to Copenhagen in
|a despatch from (lonstantinople,
which says that the authority for the
report is statenients of travellers
arriving at f‘onstaiitinople. The
attempt on the l(ing's life was matic
at Patras, Greece.
(Special to The Guardian)
LONDON. Jan. 28.-The Greek min-
ister here declares the Constantinople
report of the attempt to assassinate
King Constantine is absolutely un-
itrue.
Vienna they have recaptured some
passes which the Russians were hold-
ing in strength. While naturally the
Russians, like other belligerents, tio
not relish giving up ground gained,
they declare this is compensated i`or
by the fact that their aggressiveness
has compclletl the Austro-Germans to
postpone an expedition which they
were preparing with the object of
crusliing Serbia. Russia hopes that
Roiimaiiia with her financial position
gntirantcctl by thc recent London loan
of $25,000,000 will soon send her army
into thc field and form the missing
link bctwccii Russia anti Serbia.
'i‘hc Turks, by breaking up their
flf'tli arniy corps, have been able to re-
sunic the offensive in the Caucasus.
But the Russian report says they have
suf't`crctl tinoilier set-back. Nothing
furthcr has bccn hoard of the Turkish
army which is invading Egypt.
'i‘lic British Admiralty to-night is-
suctl ti formal denial of the German
_reports that some British ships liatl
bccn sunk in the naval battle in the
.\’ortli Sea last Sunday. The Admiral-
fy adheres to its statement that the
British vessels cngagctl returned safe-
ly to port. "
Tlic same dcpartiiicnt also denies it
story from thc United States that the
German battle cruiser Von Der Tann
was sunk by the British battle cruiser
invincible in the South Atlantic and
says that no engagement bas occurred
between these two vessels.

that all the British ships engaged in

“I ani reluctant to believe in a

would conjecture that that was.

“We must then suspend our judge-

THE SCIIRS ON THE A
IIICTORIOUS SHIPS
among the officers and men reported
to the Admiralty is:--On the Lion,
seventeen men wounded; on the
Tiger, one officer and nine men killed
and three officers and eight men
wounded: on the Meteor four men
killed and one man wounded.
“ It is not believed that any other
casualties occurred, but it so, they
will be immediately published.
" As soon as Vice-Admiral Beatty’s
report is received. a fuller account
will be given."
The statement adds that the dam-
aged British vessels can be speedily
Irepaired. The Lion was struck by a
‘German shell below the waterline, and
smo of tier forward compartments
were flooded. The details of the dam-
ages sustained by the Meteor were
not announced.
The Lion, with her sister ship, the
_Priiicess Royal. was the largest ship
in the British suadron, and in leading
the line cninc in closer contact with
the Germans anti did most of tho fight-
ing, slie being largely responsible for
the sinking of the German armoured
cruiser Blouclior. The Meteor is one
of thc largest and fastest torpedo boat
destroyers afloat. Sho is one of thir-
teen of her class built under thc naval
cstiniatcs of 1913. An additional
tlnzen of similar boats were authorised
lin the estimates of 1014.

"Talk, however, is easy and pleas-
ant. War is an accursed thing
which punishes the liinocent and gen-
vrfllli’ thc guilty go free, but our
tflironiclcrs cannot fail, to enlarge
upon the incaicuiablc blessing
which the daninable invasion of Bel-
gium has revealed to the world--the
enthusiastic and weatherproof unity
of the British empire; or, rather
thc loyalty of three connected cm-
plrcs to the mother country. That:
wtuld be worth any ordinary war.
and -' is not, perhaps. too dearly
bought even by such an appalling
conflagration as this.
"And this unity. as it is not the
beginning, so it is not the end.
Blood shed in common is the cement
of nations, and we and our sons may
look to see a beneficence ot’ empire
not such as the Prussians dreamed
of, not a warlordship over other na-
tions, not a nightmare of oppression,
but worldwide British influenco
which will be a guarantee of liberty
artl.peuce. and which, hand in hand.
.our Allies in Europe and with our
kindred in the iinlted States. should
go far to make another war such .is
this ivnpossibie.
