Mrs. W. J. 'Geddes, a dearly loved
Member of our W.M.S., who was call-
ed recently to higher service by the
Master, whom she had loved and sere
ved so faithfully, Mrs, Geddes was a
life member of our Society and will be
greatly missed, Her cheerful willing-
Iless in giving of her time, talents and
money was an inspiration to all who
worked with her and was an example
for all to follow, "By their fruits, ye
shall know them,"
Mrs. Bruce had charge of the topic
for the day' and it dealt with the Mis-
sionary work of our church in the Far
East, Most interesting and inspiring
were the accounts of the work of Dr.
John Geddie, the Gordon Brothers and
Dr, McKay in Formosa; Dr. Goforth
in China, Dr. Wilkie and Dr, Buchan-
an in Indita. Their names too will go
down not only in the history of Mis-
sion work of the Presbyterian church
in Canada, but in the history of the
lands to which in their Master's Name
they dared to go as His witnesses,
They have laid sore foundations
carefully and prayerfully. May we be
given grace to help build a church
worthy of these foundations.'
The Easter Thank Offering was re-
ceived and the meeting closed with
prayer by the President.

Shock Absorbers grid . warming rays of the sun, There's the
steaming syrup kettles and the smell ao
of woodsmoke velvety morning.
There's the smell of time stable as the
warmth penetrates through the stone
walls and sends the frost out to con-
geal glistening globules on the side.
I like the seufniNf spring, There's
the high pitched yellsaof the children
playing down the read in the school-
yard, They have been released from
the prison of a wintry dark school and
at recess time glory in a brief but new-
found freedom, I like to hear the cars
and trucks rumbling over the river
bridge on moist and foggy days in the
spring. There's sound of tractors
rumbling in the distance and of dogs
barking as they set out for pre-sea-
son look at the haunts of the wood-
chuck that will soon be fair prey.
There's a feeling about Spring that
man has never been able to really de-
fine. Things look different, The world
is being released from bondage, In the
villages and towns the storm windows
are coming off, People are painting
their houses and some are, poking
around in their gardens. The' men are
carefully raking over the lawn in front
of the church on Main Street. They
even give the old pump in front of the
hotel a coat of paint,
The door of the blacksmith shop is
open. Cronies are sitting on nail kegs
gossiping and the smithy is outlined
in the red haze of the blazing coal as
he turns the forge. His helper is
pounding out an iron bar and the
sounds echo and re-echo along the
quiet street. At the implement shop
there is an array of shiny, new red
machinery waiting for buyers,
Lovers are strolling down the back-
streets hand in hand ...serene-
ly confident that the world is theirs
alone. And the crows are starting to
caw in the swamps and swales and
soon there'll be the dignified bass of
the bull frogs joining in the refrain.
Spring comes and is welcomed in
the country,
