He based his message on the parable of the widow's mite, pointing out that even the smallest talent can be put to use for God.

The proposed plan of union with the Anglican Church, as suggested by a joint committee of the two churches, will be examined in detail at the next meeting of the Presbytery. Presbytery gave its approval for the building of a new burial chapel for the United Church owned cemetery in Brussels; the cost will be about $6, 000. The new dining hall at the Goderich Summer School was designated as Huron Presbyterys Centennial Project; it will be officially dedicated and named Centenary Hall in 1967. The greater part of the cost is to be raised by an extra appeal to all the pastoral charges at a sug- gested allocation of $1.00 per family. A highlight of the meeting was a panel discussion on the subject of the New Curriculum; papers were delivered on Lit- eralism, Inspiration, and Text- ual Criticism as related to the understanding of the Bible. One veteran member of Presby- tery commented: "This was the finest thing done in a meet- ing of Presbytery for as long as I can remember."
