all happy. We are going to miss you
very much'indeed, especially in our
dramatic activities, our choir and our
regular Y.P.S. gatherings. We take a
bit of comfort from the thought, how
ever, that some city church is going
to awaken to the fact, some of hese
days, that a small country church has
sent a well equipped and well trained
worker into their midst; one who can
show them just how things ought to
be done when they are done right.
As a group, Mildred, we give to you
our very best wishes for a long and
happy married life, and ask you to
accept this Casserole and this Table
cloth as a visible expression of those
wishes.
On behalf of the Young People’s
Society of Brick United Church,
Yours very sincerely,
Jas. McGee, President;
Mary Dow, Secretary.
The document was also signed by
the other officers of the society. The
presentation was made by Misses Jes
sie Finlayson and Margaret Robinson
to which Miss Perdue made an ap
propriate reply. Rev. J, B. Townend
also voiced the good wishes of the so
ciety. The gathering was brought to
a close by lunch and a brief devotion
al service. Miss Perdue has been a
valued
Y.P.S.
worker in the Brick Church
and will be greatly missed.
