The special preacher for the day was Rev. Kenneth McLean, of Wing­ ham, who delivered two very approp­ riate 'sermons. The choir under the., leadership .of Mrs. J. G. Cochrane* furnished splendid music and were ably assisted by Mr. and Mrs. C. R. Howard, of New York. Two anthems were sung at the morning service, Mrs. C. R. Howard taking the solo part in one and Miss K. Strang and Jas. Francis sang a duet in the other. Mrs. Howard also favored with a solo. At the evening service two anthems were sung with Mr. Howard and Miss Strang taking the solo parts in one while B. Cousins and G. Cochrane took the solo parts in the other and Mrs. Sillery, Mrs. Campbell and Mr. Howard singing a trio. Mr. and Mrs. Howard also sang a.duet. Main .Street United Church withdrew their morning service and iTrivitt Memorial church was closed for the evening ancr the congrega­ tions united with Caven for the oc­ casion. Rev. Mr. Young, .of Carmel Church, Hensail, assisted at the ev­ ening service. Mr. McLean, of Wingham, deliv­ ered very impressive sermons. At the morning service he took for his subject Jacob’s experiences as rec­ orded in Genesis, chapter 2S, deal­ ing especially with verse 17: “How dreadful is this place, this is none other than the house of God, and this is the gate of Heaven.” The speaker also dealt particularly with the last three verses of the chapter. “This is none other than the house of God” said Jacob. What then con­ stitutes the house of God? It is the place where God especially meets with his people; his church, the place where there is communion, fellow­ ship and inspiration—where God comes to his own, blessing them and fitting them for the duties of lite. The preacher then spoke of Rever­ ence “How dreadful is this place.” The divine awe that conies to us in God’s House. We may go into mag­ nificent churches or stately houses of worship and feel a certain awe of the building but it is not necessarily the divine awe; the awe that comes through the presence of a sense of God. We must cultivate reverence. We must teach our children to be reverent; to have the proper respect for the house of God. we seem to get away erent and1 devotional God’s house. As soon leaving the House of us are talking of other things, things that do very much, presence; Miss Grigg that her sister-in-law, Mary E. Grigg, beloved wife of Rev. Ernest Grigg, died October loth in Maymyo, Burma. Mrs. Grigg had been in failing health for a long time. She was a native of St. John, N. B. Mr. and Mrs. Grigg have been mis­ sionaries to Burma for 3 8 years. They have returned to Exeter from time ■to time while on furlough and botj< Mr, and Mrs. Grigg were very much beloved by many friends. The last time they visited*here was in 1928. Before going to Burma as a mision- ary of the American Baptist Foreign Missionary Society Mr. Grigg was a former pastor of the Baptist church in Perth Ont. The sympathy of many friends will go out to Mr. Grigg in his great loss.
