Mrs. Wil'son has acted in the capacity of organist in this one church for fifty years, having been appointed organist at the age of ten years and upon her recent resigna tion the opportunity was taken to acknowledge her service to the choir and church. During those years there have been well over 120' per sons w.ho have been .attached to the choir. Miss Audrey Dinnin read the address and Mrs. O.- W. Reed and Miss Edith Tuffin presented the gifts on behalf of the cho'ir. Mrs. Wil son made a very fitting reply. Mr. Wilson on behalf of Mrs. Wilson thanked the choir for the beautiful gifts and also gave a very interesting account of the organization of choir and the changes that taken place during these years, spoke of the splendid support had been given her from the mem bers of the choir and the church which made it a pleasure to carry on during these years. After enjoying some games the visitors provided a very dainty lunch and all joined heartily in singing “For She’S' a Jolly Good Fellow.” Dear Mrs. Wilson,— We, the members of the choir of the Staffa United 'Church .have gath ered this evening to express our ap preciation of the faithful service which you have rendered in the posi tion of organist of our choral group. Your untiring efforts in tlhe execu tion of the duties allotted to) that of fice have Ibeen, without doubt, one of the greatest factors in maintaining its standard of efficiency. If it may have seemed at times that co-opera tion has been lacking, yo'u have not allowed that lack of co-operation to turn from your tasik which we real ize has not been an easy one and has required self-sacrifice and constant devotion of time and talents. (The example that you have set be fore us, is one that we can, with pro fit, strive to follow. We deeply regret that you are com pelled by existing circumstances to surrender those duties which have, we trust, afforded yon a great deal of pleasure. However, we hope that you will be able .to continue to pro vide assistance wihilch will be always welcomed. Thus may many more years be added to the years, which have already been spent in the ser vice of our church. We believe that there are few who have given a part of so many years in this Way. As a token, ’•fc'ich can only slight ly indicate our esteem and approba tion, we would beg you to accept this present, We earnestly hope that It will con tinue to be a reminder of the best wishes which we extend to , you for the future.
