Dr. erin is a noted specialist in Arthâ€" ritis with many successful recoveries ito his credit and along with Mrs. Irwin is enroute to Los Angeles, Calif., for the winter months. They ~plan to live in the great outdoor, and‘ carry with them by trailer a cabin that is equipped with all the necesâ€" sary comforts and which is collapsible \when not in use. They plan to go via New Orleans and across the southern United States. {And now the. celebration that began :25 a heathen festival is an occasion .[for pranks and merry making and ‘ good-natured fun with never a thought for of religious observance. Mr: Oswald Dyke was an interest- ing speaker at Central United‘ Church on‘ Sunday evening when he related! Mr. Alex MacGregor of Toronto called on friends in town this week. Miss Margaret Reesor and Miss Elizabeth Reesor of Silver Spring were guests of Miss E. B. Russell on Wednesday last Mrs. Sandmdon of Canadian N. West in the guest of Mrs. Cora Cald- well. Mrs. J. A. Gibson spent the week- end with her niece, Miss Mary Gibâ€" son of Toronto. Mrs. S. Ball of Colebrook was: the guest of Mr. and Mrs. A. E. Milner last week. _ Many friends express regret for the serious illness of 'Mr. A. J. Camp- lin following a serious operation at Wellesley Hospital and extend best wishes for a speedy recovery. Mrs. Camplin is also kindly remembered in the especially try'ng hour. A representation of members of Central United W.M.S. attended the Thankâ€"offering meeting of Agincour’c and Ebenezer Auxiliaries during the vast week. “Hallows” was the Saxon name for saints and so, of course, their Chrls- tian festival became “Hallowmas” and :‘he evening before. “Hallowe’en.” lquite out of place on Hallowe’en» 1years ago, when November was a day of religious Thanksgiving. For one thousand years, probably for a much longer time, the nations of the north Iof Europe had an assembly on that [day on which to offer prayers and lpi‘aise to the numerous Gods and God- esses. One of the chief among them after Odin, the all Father, was Frng ‘of the Earth. As the festival was in lthe nature of a harvest home, Fr1gg was the queen of the day and was ‘thought to be the patron of all true love. For that reason she was often consulted by means of charms, many cf which are still put into service by superstitious folk on Hallowe’en. When the converted pagans gave up worshipping their gods and godâ€" esses they did not forget them. Beau- tiful Frigg was no longer worshipped but she became a witch in character. The broom stick she carries shows her protection of mortals for Frigg is supposed to sweep stormclouds from the sky and brush away all trials from those who turned to her for help. Nut cracking, bobbing for apples and masquerading would have seemed at this meeting. Following the pro- gram afternoon tea was served in the Sunday School room to the guests. Mrs. A. L. Burch and Mrs. Newall presiding at the tea table. At this informal social hour the ladies had the opportunity of more intimate acquaintance with Mrs. Dickson and seeing the interesting collection of photographs of Formosa.

Burch presided. known as a missionary chfirch and many missionaries have been given to the ranks of service through in- spiration received there; Representa- tives from Knox United, Knox Pres- byterian, Agincourt; Zion United, Wexford; West Hill Presbyterian W. M.S. Auxiliaries were in attendance {old by illustrated slides, the pictures thrown on the rear white wall of a nearby Buddist Temple. The For- mosans are very sincere in their re- lig'ion and hasten to tell their friends about the Saviour they have learned about. Miss Sterling gave an inter- esting resume of the Missionary work in St. Andrew’s congregation that had it’s inception in 1876 when a small group undertook to adopt an orphan and become responsible for the care and education of the child. A mite box in the Church Lobby for freewell offerings was the only means used to secure financial aid. In 1889 the first Home Mission was formed and later saw the foreign missionary so- ciety organized. The amalgamation of the societies formed the beginning of the W.M.S. Auxiliary now working so zealously in that congregation. Many familiar names of the pioneers were recorded in this interesting re- port. St. Andrews has always been great outdoors on another occasion, the huge crowd listened intently as the story of the life of Christ was The illness of Mrs. Gordon Ogden in Wellesley Hospital is regretted by a large circle of friends and best wish- es is extended for her speedy recovery C.
