DIR. PEBBLES LECTURES.
The course of lectures by DR.. ]. NJ.
PEBBLES, the distinguished author, lee
turer and traveller, under the auspices
of the A. 0. u. W., closed on Tuesday
night, and a rare treat they have Teen
to the best element of our people. We
believe the promise we made that this
would be the most entertaining and in
structive course ever delivered in our
midst has been made good and that this
is the general verdict. The Doctor is a
man Of commanding presence. pleasing
address, thorough information, perfect.
~ 1T home Oh the Platform, gives much
new information and makes even old
facts seem new. No one has attended
this course of lectures without laying
up Il valuable fund of information and
feeling anew that all mankind are bro
theirs.
The success Of the course has been be-
yonl the most sanguine, expectations
Of the Order of WOrkmen. It was
| something of u risk to bring on II course
Of eight lectures in midsummer, when
people prefer to be on the lake or fan
ming themselves under the trees, but
| the hall was well fi'lad every night will,
an attentive, delighted and gradually
increasing audience. The Order has
paid all expenses and has handsome
sum left in the treasury.
Among the objects of the Order are
the introduction Of lectures, literary en-
tertalnn'ents, discussion OF practical
questions, founding Of libraries. ETC..
and we hope that these features. now
so auspiciously begun in our midst,
will hereafter receive their full share
of attention.
We wish to commend DR.. PEBBLES
heartily to the public as Il gentleman of
superior mind, character and ability,
= broad-minded, religious, cultivated
man, who lives III the stop brain' more
than in the ''back brain' and who is
devoting his life to the elevation of man
and the establishment of that univer-
sal brotherhood which was Christ's
ideal.
