DI‘CLL {u conducted the devotional worshipl service and Mrs. A. W'. Stephenson told how we got our Bible. At first it was a long scroll without books1 or chapters. This was changed in} the middle ages and in 1525 it wasl ldivided into chapters and later into |verses. The Old Testament was a ‘written 2000 years before Christ and ’1 !was written in Hebrew for the Jew- % is‘h people. The New‘Testament was lj 1written in Greek and spoken in the it ‘time of Christ. A vocal quartetii was sung by Mrs. H. Moore, Mrs. ,G. Lockyer, Mrs. A. Brown and Mrs. . A. W. Stephenson. Mrs. Walter’] A . Johnson was pianist for the meet! ing. A pleasing feature of the meet- i ing was the presentation of a Life Membership to Mrs. Alfred Brown in appreciation: of her faithful ser- \v1ces as Supply Secretary. Mrs. Jas. ' Murray introduced the guest speak- er, Mrs. B. M. Johnston, honorary vice-president of the Toronto Con- ference Branch and who has been actively engaged in W.M.S. work for the past 58 years. She is row in her 84th year. Her subject was ‘Reminiscences of the W.M.S. Work.‘ i She said “It was just 62 years ago yesterday, March 21st, 1876, that the W.F.M.S. was organized in the Pres- byterian Church with the Methodist iChurch following soon after." The Ileaders in this great enterprise were ‘1n'ot University graduates but ordin- ’Eary good women with a vision, full of faith and trusting in the power of prayer and God’s rich promises‘ lwhich never fail us. The mission- L aries were first sent to India. Mrs. l Johnson’s brother, Dr. Wilkie, an- ‘ swered the call and was a mission- 'lary in India for 49 years. At that time little boys and girls were be- trothedv at 4 and :3 years of age. _ Little widows were thrown on fun- eral pyre and burned, baby daugh< tersi were unwanted, but in India to- day there is a vast change. The women are being educated and are taking a prominent and important pOSition in the state. Are we not proud to belong to an organization that has made such progress? But there is yet a great deal more to be done. She spoke also of the great place medical missions hold in our W.M.S. program. In Canada there are 20 W.M.S. Hospitals. A vote of thanks was extended to Mrs. JOhn- ston for her very splendid address by Mrs. R. F. Hicks. An old time song, “The Chair that rocked us All”, was sung -by Mrs. Harold Moore which was very fitting on this occa- sion and much enjoyed. The meet- n I‘he' 'AuxiliaI ing‘ closed with a hymn: and prayer by Mrs. B. M. Johnston. Refresh- rnents \vere then served by the hust- ess and a happy social half hour en- joyed. mn‘ The Young Peeple’s Union met last Monday evening and was in charge of the Citizenship Convener, Mr. 11‘- win Brown.

A hearty vote of thanks was tend- ered Mr. Jeffries, Mrs. Reesor and Mrs. Graham for their 00ntributions to the meeting. Holstein Breeders Hear W. C.

The disposal of accumulated rubbish in town home surroundings will be in order in a few days, all of which will be fol- lowed- by planting of vegetable seeds and flower gardens. A number of men headed by Reeve N. Geo. Wallace attacked the ice jam a distance above the dam on Mon- day last and with the assistance of crowbars and various other contrap- tions succeeded in starting the jam on its way down stream.
