The Convention of 1917 w is a meniorable one. It met in the Queen Cit) of the North. Its keynote was Advance. The spiritual tone was d.stinctly marked in every sess on. Politicians and reformers addressed it on
six o’clock closing; an cx-Cabinet Minister conducted an eleciion on the basis of proportional repiesentation; a lady lawyer addressed it on “Women in Parliament”; the Rev. Knowle Kunpton preached a mighty Conven-
tion sermon in the Baptist f »bernacle to the assembled Delegates. Convention is over. May its holy influence and deep spiritual tone inspire us for our vear’s work.
