MAY TO THE RATEPAYERS OF THE VILLAGE OF EXETER * Ladies and Gentlemen,— I wish to take this opportunity of expressing my appreciation of the splendid support given me at the polls on Monday. Sincerely, yours H. O. SOUTHOOTT THE LATE MRS. WILCOX On Tuesday morning of last week Mrs. Robt. Wilcox, one of the most respected residents of this commun­ ity and widow of the late Robert Wilcox, passed away in her 85 th year The deceased was born in Torquay, England, coming to Canada in 1878 and had been a resident .of this com­ munity since th-a* time. Her husband predeceased her in April 1924. Mrs. Wilcox had been in her. accustomed health until about three years ago and since that time she had bom her affliction with calm fortitude. She was a member of the United Church and on May 26th, 1933, was honored with a life membership in the W. M. S. She is survived by one daughter, Beatrice, at home, also three sons, Robert, at home; John, of Chicago; George of Cali­ fornia; also two' nieces, Mrs. Row- cliffe, of California, and Mrs. Ha­ vens, of Alexander Bay, New York. The funeral was held Thursday af­ ternoon conducted by Rev. J. W. Penrose who1 paid worthy tribute to the Christian .character of the ber­ eaved. Interment took (place in the Exeter cemetery. The floral tribut­ es were very beautiful showing the high esteem in which the deceased was held. The pall bearers were Messrs. J. H. Jones, Franklin Skin­ ner, R. D. Hunter, John Herdman, Jackson Woods and Wffi. Johns. JAMES STREET W. M. S. Tho regular' monthly meeting of the W. M. S. ofl James St, Church was held in the Sunday School room on Thursday evening, January 14th. The president Mrs. Kyle, conducted the business period. Tho yearly re­ ports of all the secretaries were giv­ en showing activity in all these .of­ fices nearly $450.00 having been raised during tho year. The installation of officers for 1937 was conducted by Mrs. Page. This -was a solemn effective service each officer was surely impressed with the grave responsibility of hei’ part in the work of our society, as we took our pledge to give of our best in this important work of our Master, Mrs. F. Sharpe and Mrs. Page were appointed to meet with the community to plan the program for the World’s Day of Prayer. It was decided that the group leaders would ihave charge of all the devo­ tional exercises during the year. ■Mrs. Samson McFalls took the chair for the devotional period. The Scripture readings were given by Mrs. Godbolt, Mrs. Hicks, and Mrs. Harvey Perkins gave the devotional leaflet, entitled, “Jesus the Friend of Women and Children.” In this was given interesting occasions of the meeting of Jesus wiith' women, how He praised them, criticized them, helped them, and met their needs in the same material way that He understood men. We know that Jesus must have delighted in the friendship of women who were last at the tomb and first to know of the Resiurrection, after the Resur­ rection women entered ’ into all the responsibilities and labor of the New Way, and our own United Oh'urch has recently decided to or­ dain women and admit them into the regular work of the ministry. The story ofi mothers bringing their children to Jesus is a prec-io-us one. He received' these little ones and rebuked those who' would have kept them away, Jesus is still plac­ ing the child in our midst that we may learn some of the greatest les­ sons of life. Mrs. Page gave the chapter from the study book entitl­ ed “Pioneer Missionaries-”. Begin­ ning with the life of Paul, Mrs. Page portrayed the early missionaries’ life in a very vivid way, how won­ derfully thrilling is the story of the marvellous way 'he brought as many to Christ. Then we think of Cary, Moffat, Livingstone and many others, who began Christian mis­ sions in every .country of the world and the wonderful power with which they carried on and we are here to­ day enjoying all the benefits of Christianity because of the pioneer work iof these missionaries. We have learned that there are 600/000,000 Christians in the world today, but there are many more than this num­ ber who have never seen a mission­ ary or heard of the love of Christ. Mrs. Page told .of .heroic word of early missionaries in China and Africa, who .under the most dis­ couraging circumstances carried on for long periods, without any seem­ ingly success but these men laid the foundations where now stands suc­ cessful Christian missions. The following is the list of offic­ ers for 1937: Past President, Mrs. C. W. Chris­ tie; President, Mrs. Kyle; 1st Vice- President, Mrs. Page; 2nd. Vice- President, Mrs. W.
