Middles brough. Barrow was an insig-
nifcant hamlet made up of handful Of
fshermen's huts, until the discovery Of
a rich vein Of hematite ore some forty
years ago transformed ID into one of the
most important centers Of our great
iron manufacture. Its population is
now fifty-one thousand. Where the
fishing coolies were hauled on TO the
quiet strand there now fares many a
huge blast furnace, fed with hundreds
of thousands Of tons Of ore yearly,
while jute works and one OF the largest
steel works in England add further,
not to the beauty. but 70 the CONNER
cial prosperity of Barrow. The n. akers
of the place as 1t now Is were the hate

Middlesbrough began in an even

solitary farmhouse stood where fur

the Darlington & Stockton railway was
already at hand TO help in the work.

but blind man selling lead pencils and
smoking good cigar at the same time

because he hadn't perfect right to do

30 abolish them. If things had been
retained as formerly these rents would
have furnished large income; but
did not think 1t right that they should
continue To exist. l considered it was
of the utmost Importance that the seats
should be unappropriated from the mo-
ment that the service began; and this
I hold should be the case in all parish
churches. OF course, the seats could
not be wholly unappropriated; other
wise the parishioners would not be
able to get seats. But in cases where
the church is not parish one and
where there are no parishioners, think
TINT all the seats should be free and
open to all at all times. Bat that is not
all The officials should be instructed
to give the kindest and warrnest well
come to all who come, especially to
strangers and the poor. II this were
the case, all the working classes who
CHANGED to attend would at once feed at
home and as if welcome guests. This
would be very different from what one
experiences in most churches
''in addition" he continued. 1.-The
church should be scrupuiously clean,
bright and well warmed. and as beau
tiful as the means of the parish will
allow. The seats themselves should
not be coIuforthess. but could be ar
ranged so that the worshipers should
go through the services without suffer
ing personal Inconvenience. 1t is great
mistake for the clergy to put small
stumbling blocks in the way of possible
attenders- They should offer reasona-
BILE ease and comfort to parishioners
and strangers, who will, consequently,
be more regular in their attendance at
public worship. As TO the conditions of
the services, it is highly important that
these should not be wearisomely long.
1t is es sentiai that, il people are TO be-
Gin and continue to be church-going,
the service should be shorter. brighter.
less formal and much more elastic
ST certainly think sermons ought not
to be too long; very few are now: they
should be reasonably short. A written
sermon, II fairly well delivered, is quite
rs acceptable at any rate to an edu-
rated audience, as an extempore one.
The reason why clergymen prefer to
read their sermons is that they consider
they can give more carefully expressed
thoughts. in better form. if they write
them out. than if they give them forth
extempore. At the same time every
rlergyman who can do it fairly well
lould address the poorest audience
ithout book. In conclusion, main

? ,ort, bright and hearty, and wherever
the preacher has any real message to
Leliver, the church will not be empty"
