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. 1 U McGILL Radio Service 'Phone 380 Wingham Sat., April 24th, 1948 The -ripest engineered NEW Shock AbSorbers cost no more than taa price or rebuilt ones, We specialize in shOck absorbers; let us cave yea money tool izilitiavimpaiontattill11 111111 11.1 1"imitiiiiirillillowilioloullsihulill1111111111111111111.11111111, ii Good-bye to R010 Rida$— MOTO.MASTER 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, Power Tool Grinder MEETING OF tHE EXECUTIVE AT 7 P.M. in the TOWN HALL, WINGHAM HON. FARQUHAR OLIVER will address the meeting.
