Visitation organ' tion meeting in the Anglic Parish Hall last Tuesday .e ning, It was unfortunate th every member of the congre ton was not present to see the film, "Through the Looking Glass" and to hear the Canon's enlightening address, for all those present went home with a new conception of the pessibil- lties of such a visitation, which is not an appeal for money.

Visita- tion" to the former name, "Every member Visitation." He said "To secure the best results there must be certain requisite (1) a committee (2) at least month's training hnd prepara- tion (3) regular mailing of ABC literature (Attend, Believe and Contribute) (4) sufficient helpers (to go in pairs) so each pair will have only 5 to 8 calls to make."
