YOUTH CAMPAIGN.
A STIRRING SERVICE. The Key. Lionel B. Fletcher conducted another stirring meeting in the Durham Street Methodist Church last evening, in connexion with the Youth Campaign. His subject was "The White Stone.'-' That there 'would be opposition to tho Now Testament conception of a Christian was not to be wondered at, said Mr Fletcher.' It had been so since the time of Christ. He would try to givo them a bird's-eye view of religion. Tho first thing that really happened in religion was the overcoming by the individual of the unworthy and evil things in his nature. If religion did not issue in action it was useless. If ono was not changed in life one was being doped by a religion that was no good. The power to overcome, was> given by God. "The White Stone" was the proof of guiltlessness. The marvel of the Gospel was that to the guilty God gave "The White Stone." God was not a Judge, waiting to damn, but a Father desiring to love and save. At the close of the service there were many requests for prayer.
