 posing him to have been in the com. pany went a days journey" from which he developed a searching sermon ,
 upon the Possibility of Losing Christ In this account of the lost boy. Jesus,
 the marvel Is, said Dr. Slough, that his mother could have gone one whole day without thinking of her boy, but we find a parallel today. There are people supposing they are Christians, who go on from day to ay without con- scious experience. The church here and elsewhere is full of people who are constant attendants, whose names are on the rolls, who are contributors, and to all intents and purposes they are Christians because they are outwardly. church members. The fact is they are. mere supposers, mere professors and they have never been possessors.
 There are people who have started with Jesus and have lost him on the way through neglect. Think over how you began this day and whether you have given thought to having Jesus by your side. There are Christians who go not one day but many days without prayer, without reading the Bible. without these things needful for Christian life. The one day that you live out of touch with Christ you'll know it; if two days. your children will know it; if three days. your neigh bors will be pretty apt to know some thing about it.
 By fragrant disobedience also Christ may be lost, and some people are try ing to take Jesus Christ where he will not go. In this connection the speaker declared that many a man and woman has lost Christ through their clubs and their societies and these were reasons for the absence of the family altar, no more grace at table, no more fathers praying with their children. The lost Christ spells lost time; for the time we are out of fellowship with him is lost

RESOLUTIONS OF REspEcT.

At recent meeting of the Teachers of the Central District the following resolutions were adopted;
 We, the teachers of the Central Dis trfet, wish to record a tribute to the memory of our beloved superintendent row at his sudden removal from us by death.
 Resolved. That we hereby express our appreciation of his long and faith ful service in the schools his valuable advice and counsel in difficulty, his varied experience in the teaching pro- feSsion, his unfailing kindness. and his exceptional tact and courtesy under all circumstances. His rare efficiency and fine qualifications for his very responsi- ble position always commanded conf- dence and cheerful cooperation. He possessed more than most men a gener- ouS heart. ready to respond to the ap- peals of others, a strong sense of jus tice, and cheerfulness that endeared him to his associates, by whom he will long be remembered as personal friend. Ills ideals for teacher and pu- pill were ever the noblest. and in aim ing to realize them he spared himself flee.
 Resolved, That we feel that in the death of MT. Bishop the community at large has lost an honorable citizen, an upright leader and a noble Christian gentleman, whose attitude towards all wholesome and sane, just suited to im- press young minds and hearts with such conceptions of duty and worth as are most conducive to- honorable and useful citizenship.
 Resolved. That we extend. to his be reaved family our heartfelt sympathy. with a realizing sense of their irrepa- rable loss
