Following is the address to Mr. and Mrs. Ros.® Forrest at the Hen- sall United Church 'last Thursday evening. Dear Margaret and Ross: It is our great delight and privi­ lege as members of Hensall United Church .Sunday School Staff to* do hondr to one of oui’ number who has 'been promoted to matrimonial bliss. Also it gives us pleasure to extend to you, Margaret, a very Cordial welcome to the fellowship Of our church. It has always been the custom of our bhurch to honor members of the 'Sunday .School staff Who manifest courage to launch out on the sea of matrimony. Some think that when anybody makes such a move ,he requires the sym­ pathy of 1 his1 friends, because It means a loss of singleness and free­ dom and marks an entrance into a bondage from which there is no escape. However it is not sympathy that promotes our action today but the desire to congratulate you and extend to you our felicitations. There is- a bondage that is true -free­ dom and nothing else can Ibe said in greater sincerity than When two. hearts that beat in one accord are joined together for life by the 'bonds and rites of marriage. May we take this occasion Ross of thanking, you for the valuable contribution you are making to our Sunday 'School work, It is not always easy for you to get Out Sunday after Sunday. But you have done this for consid­ erable time and your work is ap­ preciated and whatever energy is spent and sacrifice is made, only the future will record' its worth- whileness >as the boys who are under your care and instruction and who afe influenced by your character go ultimately into the world to take theii* places as Canadian citisehs who Will seek to support and pro­ mote 'Christian standards of life and conduct. Wo are pleased that you have made your life partner one who is not a stranger to the life and work of the church ahd 'who has of chairman.

A comment mad'e iby a friend from the Old -Country about our scones will long >be remembered. She said: “This is just as good as cake. In fact, I would never miss cake if I 'had '.breads like this.” It is evident that even English people are changing theii" tastes since these quick -breads were -made with less sugar and no butter compared to old-time reci­ pes. Tea biscuits, muffins, scones, cof­ fee cakes and quick loaf breads use a small amount of sugar and short­ ening. Of course, some -buttei’ will disappear1 when freshly baked bis­ cuits and scones are served, but as ■these take the place of both bread and cake, there should be a notice­ able saving. We should save now for the festive goodies.
