Following the sup­ per, a splendid program was provid­ ed including readings, duetts, quar­ tettes, flute solos; a dialogue by the members of the group and the Hicxs trio of Greenway was very much en­ joyed by all. The proceeds were in the interests of the Woman’s Assoc­ iation, Mrs. Willis’ group in charge Those taking part in the dialogue “Reception Day at the Parsonage” were as follows: Mrs. Geo.

The Scripture lesson was found make a wood bee. One car load in Matthew 6th chapter verses 24-34 missed the directions and arrived in what they thought was the bush for the wood bee which was to supply one of the local churches for its annual supply of wood. When they arrived each load looked around for the other load wondering why they had not arrived. They saw the wood and got out their saws but. when they saw that the other load of would-be wood arrive it looked would-be wood bee a flop.

The special speaker for the day was Rev. L. C. Harvey M.A., B.D., of Brantford, a former Exeter boy, son of Mrs. J. S. Harvey of town. For a number or years his father was superintendent of the James St. Sunday School and it seemed fitting that the son should be present to conduct the annivers­ ary of the school. Mr. Harvey at the morning service recalled the days when he was a lad in the school and paid a loving tribute to some of his former teachers. As a prelude to the sermon he delivered an interest­ ing sermonette to the boys and girls present. His sermon was particu­ larly applicable for tne occasion, the theme “Suffer unto me.” The service well attended, primary together witn their teachers occupied seats on a raised platform and sang two selections. Little Dor­ is Penhale sang one of the a solo. The Robert Raikes and seals were distributed who had been perfect in tendance during 1932, and er 57 were distributed; ten for the first year, 46 seals, three were for the ninth year, and one Alumni Diploma which marked the eighth year. The class were con­ gratulated on their faithfulness! Rev. Mr. Harvey delivered a very fine address to the cflHGren, taking “Building” as his theme; the folly of erecting a building without a plan or an architect and urging all to live their lives according to the plan laid down by the Great Architect. Miss Ella Link sang a solo. The or­ chestra, as recently organized under the direction of Mr. Goulding, play­ ed several selections. The superin­ tendent, Mr. J. H. Jones presided. At the evening service the attend­ ance was not large owing to the in­ clement weather and the slippery condition of the roads. Mr. Harvey again delivered a very inspiring ser­ mon. The choir privided special mu­ sic for the day. At the morning ser­ vice Messrs. Walter Cutbush and P Vahey sang a duett and at the even­ ing service M'rs. Goulding and Misses Pearl Wood and Margaret sang a trio. THAMES ROAD Johns was- they not was and read by Mrs. Allie MicFalls. Mrs Arthur McFalls then read a paper entitled “Food and. Raiment.” A very pleasing duet was rendered by Mrs. W. Essery and Mrs. C. Skinner “Anywhere With Jesus.” Mrs. Geo Thompson gave a reading entitled “Not Understood.” Hymn 240 was sung and the President, Mrs. Bow; den took the chair for a short busi­ ness session. It was decided that the April meeting be in the evening when the captains of the groups will hand in their money telling in detail how it was made. Hymn 3 28 was sung. and Mrs. Bowden closed the meeting. A dainty luncn was serv­ ed by Mrs. Albert Mitchell, Mrs. Langford, Mrs. A. Isaac and Mrs. H. McFalls. cutters did not as though the would be sort of was of the soft variety and while the men were not soft they were soft at the job and they found before night that while the weather was soft the job n’t. As each gang worked away wondered why the other had turned up and wondered if it just a frame up to get a. load up to cut the wood up. The next time they planned .a wood bee there would be enough would-be wood, cutters ro make a wood bee. They would see to that. Each gang accumulated a fine pile of wood and it was not until some of the parties met later that they found out what happened. One party had gone to the right bush to saw the wood saw the wood sawed it but had had the the we have not heard what adjustments have been made with the owner the wrong bush. while the other party in another bush and after they saw what they wished that theyhappened never taken their saws, noi* saw bush, nor sawed the wood for wood-bee.
