The jubilee celebrations of the Kno* Presbyterian Sunday School were commenced last week. The celebrations concluded on Tuesday evening with a re-union of old scholars, a function which was most Successful and drew a large attendance. During the evening Mrs Brownlie, a daughter Of tfye Rev D. M’Kee, the first minister of Knox Church, gave a very interesting address, and Mr D. Davidson, who represented the original scholars, gave some reminiscences of the early days of the school. Other speakers were the Rev T. W. Armour, the present minister, and Dr R. Erwin. A number of items were given in the course of the evening. “One thing that cannot be stressed too much,” said Mr E. H. Marriner at the annual meeting of the Industrial Association last night, “is the necessity for loyalty and co-operation between manufacturers. There are instances of firms which arc anxious f6r assistance in their own line, but at the saine time are using imported raw material* when our own are available. There is one instance Of a gentleman who was representing a LttU&dn house ahA very anxious to have a heavy duty placed on American gOOde of the same line, and .saying that we should support England, who buys our products. Yet outside his office was one of the latest American ears which he had recently purchased.”
