YESTERDAY IN THE CITY CHURCHES

ZION CHURCH
Rev. "Dr. Robert Laird, preiiclioil
two exceptionally able sermons in
L‘hiti'lottetown yesterday. in the mnrti-
ing in Zion Church he took as his;
text John 10, 10, "I uni come thati

had still many vacaiwics to fill both

ln the evening in St. Jain:-_-i (`liiirrli

eiiornious iienefits had' accrued to the
1-Impire, not only commercially hut nl-
so? in the patriotic support which iti
received during the war, from the
grunt work of her foreign inisi-iioiiarios
ln the war a large number of Fiji
Islanders had offered tiieinselves and
had been accepted for service in the
'battle line;-men who it few years
Hilo were cannibals. The work of the
foreign missionary had entirely chang-
ed their mode of life, had destroyed
their pagan -traditions, had brought
to them a knowledge of Christ, and
'had so permeated among them the
SDl1‘ud to offer themselves on the altar
of her sacrifice, ,that those ideals'
iiliifitt be vindicated. The only real
ideals of Britain that they were in-I
|
the Church today. lie showed whatl
Christianity was that which was pre-
deavour. The Chirlstlatiity that exist-
rd in the hen-rt of Christ was the Chri-
stianity that the world needed today.
and that Christianity must be passed
on from individual to individual, t'rom
institution to institution, and from
nation to nation. it must. be intermit-
ionni to be really Christian. Therefore
the Cliurnli must be prepared to estab-
lish itself ln every corner of the
theiight oi’ the Gospel. To do its work
effectively the Church should have ade-
fiuate equipment in both men and
material, and so an appeal was being
made for $100,000 on the part of the
l’rer.bytei-lan Church for $100.000
and seven men, The speaker had tw
need to tell his audience. he said#
where the first flordlgn jmissionary
from Canada came from, but magnifi-

for sympathetic and hearty support

it nt the present time being. such as
required all the means that could be
placed at its disposal. Men must be
ready to give of their abundance, not
in miserable driblets but as they will-
ingly and nobly gave during the war.
The sermon was ri masterpiece and
was listened with marked attention
throughout.
The congregation at both services
were large aiiddntcresteii and the
singiiig was all that could be dcsired.
THE METHODIST CHURCH
Rev. 0.1... Kilborn, Medical Missionary
from China was the preacher at the
service in the Methodist Church on
Sunday evening. Ho delivered a vcry
interesting -diiscourse dwelling upon
the needs of Chinn., politically, econ-
oinically, religiously, socially and spir
itually. lie showed that the attitude
of the Chinese had cliailged In 25
years of missionary work in that coun-
try. At, the outset they had despised
the missionary but now they uuuisllt
hlg friendship. Twenty-eight years
ago four missionaries and their wives
opened the work in tho western pro-
vince of Chautu und today there uw

great work being carried on in that

Kingdoni of God. Speaking of tho
Home Mission iieltl in (‘anada, he said
that one of its most striking features
wus the uiigratlon of the people front

linstcrii and older (‘.iina.d:i to \\'estei'ii
anti Northorri (Wiiiritia.
The Church must take care of its
young people by providing suitable
Citi-istian institutions. VVe must also
Ciinadianise the foreign elements of
our population without letting them
feel that they were being deiiatlonal-I
lseil. We shall establish the 'best
Canadian life by uniting in a harmon-
ious whole all that is lies; and wor-
thy 'ip_-,all elcineiits of our people,purg-
ing the unworthy cliaractefristics. The
speaker said that Canada had ton long
worshipped Mnminon in the i'orm of
the vicu trziiiic and the liquor trallic,
now happily curbed. The people had
awzikeued and were no longer to be
driven like untliinklng beings. They
iwaliscd that they had itlwtls and were
prepared to~st.ztiid for them. It was
therefore necessary to turn ther en-
ergies in tho right direction. . The call
to the Church was to deliver her mag.
sage anew with incrcascfl fervoiir and
insistence. The Church must provide
the dynamic for the social chaiiges
that were to be made. No worthy soc-
ial undertaking of any iinportance
could be mentioned that was not vit-
nlly dependent on tho Church for
support and inspiration, The Church
ulust. look for v.carious life: Men and
women must be found to devote their
lives to the service of G-od. The speak-
er mentioned instances of noble self-
sacrifice in the Christian cause .and
made an appeal for further efforts
to -tho end that Christ's message
might be delivered to those who were in
darkness.

and Great Britain and the West lnd-

the proposal oi' the Charlottetown;

We note visit to Toronto regarding
Charlottetown being made a port ul.
call by our vessels, and may say thati
this matter is being studied out ln]
this oiilce. For our lnforination andi
to assist us in properly grasping thei
situation. will you please say its re-;
gards Great Britain, how many!
months of the year would it be pro-
fitable for us to put our steamers in-I
to Cliarlottetown? and to what ports|
should t-he ships be sent? Furthelxi
as to the volume of business we arc!
likely to get in the period mentioned.,
We presume that a steamer calling’
once ii. month on her way to the Unit-j
ed Kingdom would be suiilcleut, butf
will appreciate very much indeed asf
niuili inforniation as you can give`us-
as to what you think can be done.
It is pleasing to note that Mr. Mes-
sorvey is going into this matter thor-
oughly, tindiug out all the necessary
particulars and will send a complete
statement covering the points of in.
formation required.
The service referred to in the letter
Nuuifiug a steamer from 200' to 300
tons, which they could not supply- il
between Pictou, P. E. Island and the
Magdalen Islands. -
Mr. Messervey is certainly i7o`ba
commended up on his efforts to bl”
lb” lufscr steamers cull at.CharlU17t»-
town and if the Government concern
can only ‘be prevailed upon to carry
out the idea. it will certainly boo
source of gratification to Mr. Heller-
voy and every citizen alike. _
