HARVEST TH ' NKSGIVING Services at Belg ave, Auburn and Bly h. AN IIeP • • SSION, It was my privile•o on Sunday last to attend the annual . arveet Thanksgiv- ing services in the . •ove named planes. The day was suck glad and inspiring one that I feel covet aimed to write down my impressions. T • e weather was de. lighttnl—an ideal 0. y for snob services. It filled the heart w th the joy of living, as well as with th spirit of gratitude. The first service of he day was held at Trinity Church, B: grave. On our ar- rival we were met y the church ward- ens, who gave us a ery waren welcome. The service oomm:need sharp on time and the clergyrna • Dame out of the 'vestry to fade a con regation that peek- ed the ohuroh to the doors. And such a service! The singi1g was so thoroughly hearty and inspiri . g; and though per - baps not so true o even es one would find in the ohoir of . city oathredal, yet it ascended as i ..ense into the very presence of God • imself. For it was reverent, it was f om the heart, it was the expression of a thankful spirit. The sacred edific:, always neat and chaste looking, wa farther enhanced in beauty by decora•ione gathered from the products of fi ad, orchard and gar- den; an offering, a: it were, of the first fruits to the Giver .f the Harvest. The thank -offer ng at Belgreve amounted to the ,:um of $116.00. An appeal had been m. de for $85.00. I shall let these two facts :peak for themselves. At the close of t servioe there was a short time of 1 • gering around the ohuroh door. A • easant word of cheer, a warm grasp of t.e hand from many a true -hearted servant of God, and we were on our wa to Blyth. Here re- freshment was p ovided for man and beast. The service in he afternoon was at St. Mark's, Anbnr . , Again the church was crowded, ag: in had loving kande beautified the plat= of God's sanctuary. Atthis ohuroh t ere was a great pro. fusion of planta, ,c owers, . grain, vege. .i tables and fruits o all kinds, testifying at once to the b.nntiful harvest, the wealth of the soi , and the devotion of the people. As : t Belgrave, so here, the singing was splendidly hearty. It was indeed inspir ng to glance down the ohuroh and see he gray-haired saints of God, with hea• uplifted feebly chant- ing "Come ye t,ankfni people come, Praise the song of Harvest Home." Truly the precept was observed "Young men and maidens, old men and ohildren praise the name of the Lord." The children, too, wee there. Infants prat- tling away in heir own particular manner, interjeo ng a sound here and there. But their west sounds all blend- ed with the har ny of song speech, for He was there wh once blessed the Iittle children of Galli . The thank -offering at this ohuroh w a devoted to Missions. The sum of $45.0 was asked for and the people presented his with $20.00 in ex- cess, for the wor of the church in other planes. One left the church with the feeling "truly t e Lord was in that place, it was none other than the gate of heaven." The closing ser ce Of the day was at Trinity Church, lyth., Here the con- gregation is larger, and the ohuroh more oommodiOns than t the other stations. The people began to gather early and soon the ohuroh ' • s filled. The same spirit of Ioyalty nd tender, reverent love for the House •f God wise manifest in the chaste and asteful decorations. The church seem:, to be a mase of bloom. Certainly i looked well. The ohoir et Blyth is a excellent one and Under the leadeashiof an organist, rev- erent and tuneful, r:ndered the tamilar thanksgiving hymn: in a manner befit- ting the worship • the Lord of the harvest. In one e:nee the crowning feature of the day ' . s the magnificent Thankoffering preee ted to God by the members of Trinity +hutch, Blyth -the sum of $701.00. Tr' y e noble offering! It was given with a will, too, "not grudgingly nor of is *malty" but cheer- fully and gratetull Every fade was Wreathed in smiles a the knowledge of what had been ace mplished, and this found expression in t e heartiest render- ing of the Doxology t • et the writer has ever listened to.
