The guest speaker, Miss Sibyl A bouquet of daffodils and pussy willows on the table in Knox Pres- byterian Church made a spring- like atmosphere for the Women's World Day of Prayer service on Friday afternoon last, Mrs. C, W. Brown, president of Knox WMS welcomed the ladies and also presided at the organ, Mrs. H. H. Ormond played soft accordian music while the wor- shippers were assembling, and also during the offertory.

Larson and Mrs. Rob- ert Scotchrner offered prayer. The collection was taken up by Mrs. Charles Toms and Mrs. R. J. Lar- The theme' "One fleck, one shep- herd," was presided over by Mrs. Dwayne Elliott Among Better Spellers In Huron A young Brucefield speller will be among four contestants in the Hensa11 area who will go to, semi- final competition in Exeter next Wednesday for the South-Huron finals. Dwayne Elliott, SS 3, Tuckersmith, (son of Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Elliott, Brucefield), was one of the successful contestants, at the semi-final held in HensEill Public School on Monday of this week.

"We have here a somewhat am- using but typical male assertion that this is' a "man's world." In a sense it puts; woman in the pos- ition of the Victorian child who was expected to be seen but not heard. "Today we are observing the "Women's' World, Day of Prayer." .You cannot appreciate the real significance of such a movement until you have given some thought to the position of women in the time of our Lord some 2,000 years ago. "Good women have always been revered, but the old Jewish law was harsh, and judged by our pres- ent-day terms, its treatment of women was intolerable. Woman in that ancient world was valued altogether with reference to her husband, he was first and central; woman's value was rated by her meaning and service to him. She was not a person in her own right as he was. She was at his dispos- al to be regulated, suppressed, cod- dled or discarded as might most please him. "Against such an attitude, Jesus' ministry was a sutained protest. He treated women as he treated men-as persons sacred in. their own right; as souls loved of God and full of undisclosed possibilit- ies. He never condescended to a woman, but habitually showed them deference, and to the sur- prise of His followers came to their spiritual defense more than once. Christ brought a new mean- ing to woman and elevated her to a position of dignity =like any- thing that she had ever known. "In St. Luke's. gospel, we read of the countless merciful acts of Christ towards women, and his has been called the Gospel of Woman- hood. It is to him that we owe teaching of Jesus on this subject, "The stories, of the Infancy are Old in Luke from the woman's point of view. And there are a ntunber of other evidences• in the Gospel which suggest that he is indebted to Women for his infor- mation. Much of what we know about Mary, the mother of Jesus is told to us by him. Luke• alone tells us about Elizabeth, the moth- er of Jahn the Baptist, and Anna, the aged prophetess who welcom- ed the babe Jesus in the temple He alone records the first sermon at Nazareth, the reference to the visit of Elijah to the widow of Sidon. From Luke's Gospel comes the moving story of the restora- tion of the only son to the wid- owed mother at Nain. He alone records the annotating by the prostitute in the Pharisee's house. I should like to read you this mov- ing account from the 7th chapter of St. Luke beginning at the 36th verse. "It is from Luke alone that we get particulars about the women who shared the missionary journ- ey. The mention of the names suggests that they were well- known in the church, and perhaps known personally to Luke, him- self. "Our Lord was fearless. We never get the impression that he preferred the companionship of women to that of men. But of one thing we are certain: He came to save all mankind. It was no simple task to stand opposed to a stern law that said, in this world the male goes first; what is left is for women. Christ's compass- ion to women was rewarded with love and devotion which caused a woman to wash His feet with tears, and another to anoint his body to the burial. There were women that wept when He was going to the cross; and women that followed Him from the cross; and that sat at His sepulchre when He was buried. They were woman that were first with Him at his resurrection morn; and wo- men that brought tidings first to His disciples that He was risen from the dead. "Women therefore, are highly favoured, and show by these things that they are sharers with men in the grace of life. That is• the rev- olutionary doctrine of Christianity. And wherever Christianity has gone it has brought a new idea of womanhood and tranformed her place in society. "There are doubtless very few women today who have ever stop- ped to consider that they have been especially blessed by our Middleton and Mrs, Daniel. A duet was sung by Mrs, .W, Brown and Mrs, H. Belt with Mrs, Doegall es pianist. A short address was given by Mrs. E. Geiger, with an Indian version of the twenty-third Psalm as the basis of her remarks, The .Indians are students of Cook's Christian Training School in Phoe- nix, Arizona, The founder of the school is Dr, George Logic, son of the Rev, John ',ogle, 'who formerly Preached in a Presbyterian Church et Redgerville (just - two, miles south of HensalI), and the school wee named for Rev. Charles Cook, who was a missionary to the Pima The speaker stated that as many illiterate peoples of the world are now being taught to read, it is very important to give them the best Christian literature. The offerings given oh The World's Day of Prayer are being used to help Bible Societiee and to spread Christian literature in many countries of the world. Lord, Should we not ask oursel- ves if we love Him enough? Can we really afford to let the hectic business of every-day living Come between us and Jesus Christ who loved us enough to give His life that we might live? "Perhaps we should ask oursel- ves how much love to Christ our lives portray. As the Sundays roll around, do we attend, church or would we prefer to stay at home to watch television; or do some- thing else rather than make the effort? God wants us in Church. Do we lave Him enough to wor- ship with fellow Christians? Are we supporting our church organ- izations to further God's' work? Or do we prefer to seek personal pleasures and leave God's work to someone else? "Jesus expects our homes to be different from those of non-Chris- tians, If we love Him, we will abide by His teachings, and there will be love and understanding, patience and forgiveness. We should read our Bible. and teach our children to read them. When was the last time that we asked a stranger to come to church, or helped someone in time of troub- le? "What is our attitude toward our neighbours, toward other wo- men? Do we love our Lord en- ough to forgive an unkind word or a selfish act? "As we come near to the Wom- en's World Day of Prayer, 1956, may we listen very carefully for the voice of God, and be guided by Him to do things in His way, and according to His plan, always looking forward and moving on- ward, so that we may be able TOGETHER, to say: "And so we come pledged to new consecrat- ion, pleading for a new vision of the world's need, and a vision of the world's Saviour pledged to wit- nessing and testimony, in our words and life and deed; which shall go on and on until the last woman has reached through this world fellowship of Christian women."
