was hold in tlie National School, wlien shout 20 people nsseiubled. The Rov. R. D. U. Gmy, chairman of the Pariah Council presided. The attention of the meeting was called to the dan­


gerous state of pait of the road leading from Downham road to Pendle vi-w. A long disunssion ensued ns to the owneiship of the load,and aftor- waids the following resolution was proposed by


Mr. Jells:—That the attention of the Rural District Council be drawn to the unsatisfactory and even dangerous condition of tho road and channel adjoining it, loading from the main


road to Pendle view.” This was seconded and carried. Mr. W'illiam Yates drew attention to the profit


of about £ l-J , made by tho water supply, and thought that some reduction in tho charges for


for water should he made. Mr. W. Uanson, (District Councillor) however


explained that tho Rural District Council had decided that the surplus should he paid into the Chatburn special expenses account, and that in this way tho rates of tho township w-ould be


reduced. Mr. John Falshaw asked tor information in re­


gard to the lighting scheme, and the chairman informed the meeting that the total expenses for gas, lighting, and maintenance for the past win­ ter only amoiiuted to JlS Us. 2d., and that tiiere was now- only a small lialance in hand. The meeting concluded witli a voto of thanks


to the chairman, PAKIall COUNCIL MEETING.

The best treatment for whooping cough, is that which aims to relieve the ^mploms, prevent complications, and improve the general health. Angler's Emulsion does all this, and does it better than any other remedy. It not 6nly greatly relieves the spasms of coughing and retching, and prevents catarrhal complications, but it builds up strength, increases vitality, and enables the child to throw olT the disease.more quickly and with Ie.ss danger of after ill-effects. It should be given as soon as the first symptom is noticed and continued until the whoop has ceased. Of Chemists, i / i j , c/9 and 4/6.

BAND OF HOPE CONCERTS. Whooping The twelfth popuUir cortcett arranged


by the) Clitheroe and District Band of Hope Union 'was held in the Assembly Room at the Weavers' Institute. It was unfortunate that the attractions of the Fair should affect the attendance, as the con­ cert was perhaps the best that has been given this season. Mr. J. W. Blackhurn liresided and opened the proceedings with an excellent little address. Tho artistes included Miss A- Dugdale, of Burnley; .Mrs. Morris, Clitheroe; Mr. W. Aspinall, Great Harwood; Messrs. F. Margerison and C. Holt, Clithoroe; and Mr. W. Sut­ ton (the liutghiiig comedian) who ,hl.is (ire- viously amused Ciitheroe audiences. Miss Diigdale jiroved herself a very pleasing soprano vocalist, her songs being “ Thu .Swallow” (Cowen), “The Valley by the '.'.i" (.Adams,) and “Theres a Tand" (.-Xlit-


snn)—-songs well sinled in her voice. -Mr. Asiiinall is an exce])tioiWlly good bass e.icalist, especially in the lower register, and he .so iileased the andience that they recalled him for each ilem- His songs in- chided f’etrie's clever eompo.sition, “Down in the Deep,” the ever ])n))ular and nielod- ions “.'\slee|) in the Dci'p, and an old naiilieal evergreen, “The AdmiraTs broom” Mrs. Morris eontrilitlted an -entertliiniiig reading which was a pk'.asiint break in the ]irngramme. and instrumental duets (cornet and euphonium) bv Messrs.

creed, the old thought, the old articles- seemed to l>e crumbling away and there was disquiet in the minds of men. If the foiiniV.itions were removed, what would the righteous do? Let him tell them that God who made the world would not let it loose mil of His hand; and that God who loved the world would not cease loving it in the 20th century. The making of all nhings new in the material world had made a new epoch in civilisation, and the making of things new in the religious world had made a new conce)ition of Chrislt .iiiiy. What he wislied to sfiow was that this new con- ceplion of Christianity exactly fitted new problems in social affairs. The new Christianity had been the return to Christ, and that was due to new methods. Tlve nicthnds <>f the jireaiihers had changeil. Uiiih-r the old methods the preacher first formed his theory, then sought for the fact lo jirove it. In the new method the invaclier collected liis jacts and confirmed them, and then, so far as he could, brought out his theon- to explain his f.act. By tho new niethoil tihoy had discovered a new hemisphere in the Kingdom of God—a dis- coverv wliich might be made as important to the World as the discovery of lieinis- phere bv Columbus. Up to the last cen- turv Clirisli.anily ;had only looked ii]>nn the heinisiihere of man's duty to God. It hail been <‘ssentially individi(;listic- It spoke ol the soul's dutv and honour and love nf God. That hemisiihere remained, but the new hemisjihere had discovered man's duty to his Iirntiier man. 'That was the prolilem of this new century. I.making back over the lllth century to liie end of the 18th centiirv. it was an age of muscul.hr power; now it was siqierseiled by m-jehanical ]iiiwer. Tlie steam engine had had a mar. Velloiis effect on .society. It had brought the interdependence of man niKin man. The age of tlie home-simn, when man, to make [iruvision for himself and family, had to know from three lo twentv trades, had passed. To-day, we were more dependent upon each other. Only the previous week he had read that in America ii n-qnired fil different machines lo make a shoe. F.ach man worked a tlifferent madiine, sn lh..t instead of one man knowing everything in regard to the making of ashoe he only knew nm- sixtv-fmirlli itart of his trade. Tliere was this 'groat interdependence in one trade, and so also society seemed to be woven together. To-day. in this 20tli cen- tnrv. no man livetli to himsell, .and no man ditt'h to liiniself- In the 17th ceir (nrv eacli family w.a.s a little world : now we were attaining to a state of the whole world D'coming a single family. Dwelling upon the laws of God, and t''- laws nf nature, lie sliowed that they were laws of service and laws of sacrifice. So it was in


the social state, only that we Rad the power of free will, and the problem that confronted u.s to-dUy was how were we to be made to accept these laws ul service and sacrifice that were essential to the welfare of the community. He ehilined that it "fas bv the new (jliristianity. 'I'he essentials of Christianity were surely sacri- fiee and service. 'I’hey might say it was a beautiful idea, but while human nature was human they would never attain it. He admlued that Inintin nature was individ- nali.siic, and that there was a .s.ruggie lor existence, lull there was the existence of others also to consider. It had liemi cus­ tomary to have put into their hands when yoiuig, .Mr. Smile's hooks on thrift, but so far from ir. .Smiles being an clncator of youth, he held he was


eo.rnpter of


youth. The doctrine that they w.i'e in the world to be hostile to others, in shove a man to tiie wall and t'.u-ii ttead over his Fiodv in order lo get on. he held was im­ moral. They had to realise that man was not supremely individualistic. They had to recognise that he had other duties ih.aii '’getting on." He I'he.ughi they would agree with Mr. Bernard .Shaw that all seheines of reformation had failed F.ecause ihev I'onid no. prodnee the sniier-maU. Was there anv iinwer that could make this sui)L'i'-man ? He claimed ihl.i man was mid in Jesus Christ. .'\ny man tliat was


in Christ was a new ni:in. From the fir.si moment of Christ's ministry it was marvel­ lous the power lie had over man. To-day we had the self-denial of the .Salvation .\nnv, and the fact that many of the finest imellccts h.ad given up their lives to His work in the slnnis and mission fields were evidences of Fils power. In cuncinsion. tihe preacher held tliat


where Christianity had failed, it was not b-ecause of any intrinsic weakness, but l>ecause they had not tried to live it, and that when they lived it as the Apostles -I'inisiercd, then it would be that the new het.ven would begin on earth-
