A Petmanent Wave By Tomlinson’s -............ SPECIALS .50 tor .75 .00 ♦ Thankoffering Service of Malin Street W.M.S. * On Sunday morning, April 19th, Mirs. M. A. Hunt gave an inspiring and challenging address in Main Street church at the Women’s Mis­ sionary Society Easter thankoffer- ing service. Taking as her text, “Go ye into all the world and teach”, she reminded her hearers of the necessity and urgency 'of carrying out that last command of our Lord. Only as the gospel is made known in all lands, and nations learn to heed its teaching, can there be any hope for the world. ‘ The speaker illus­ trated .the worth of Christian mis­ sions by reference to the Soong sisters, of China, whose father ear­ ly in life came in contact with Methodist missionaries from1 America and had imparted his Christian faith to his now famous family. One of his daughters married Sun Yat Sen, the founder of the Chinese Repub­ lic; the Chinese minister of finance; third became the wife Of Chiang Kai-Shek, the generalissimo of China. It is no accident that the leaders of China today are Chris­ tians, but rather it is the direct re­ sult of Christian missions, here on this continent, have part in the attempt to form? a tian democracy in 'China, So not now,” urged Mrs. Hunt, sake our Chinese brothers, and sis­ ters but continue to support mis- sions in China by both our prayers i and our gifts.” A splendid congregation was pre- ’sent for the service, which was con- t ducted by the minister, Rev.
