The bust"cess of the first session wax
corielud "1 by the apppiniment at Mrs.
Austen, Miss, Dinginan. Mrs. Murch ands
Snell as a courtesy caronnittee.
It was a cause of great sorrow to the
Conveiatl'es that its IIonorary Pres:dcnt
and Vice -President were both , absent
thru illness and that one ;tot its honored
district oi-- inizers was being carried to
her Iasi resting place at tete very hour
at which the Branch Meeting convened.
Special retention Was made of this latter
tact by Mrs. Learoyd, who conducted the
memorial service. After ' reading about
the God "whip has been our dwelling
place from all generations" and the sing
ine; of nit appropriate hymn, Mrs. 'I ea
'esti rns•',a mention of those whohad
s to
h,e1 within the veil during the
-nisi yell's, and especially ' of the .one
w soSe death had been such. a shock and
one ;'f wdvese last messages 1iad been
that she would be resent at the C4onve'n
tion 'in spirit, if not In body.. The ser-
vice was concluded by the reading roil
the beautiful memorial' service front
the Church of England Prayer Book, and
another hynm.
One of the nrost Impressive services of
the Convention was the Consecration Ser
vice led tihitt aiterinoian by Mrs. l7nna-
inore. After the usual exercises of sing
ins and prayer, iiully half • an 'hour was.
given to testim;oniest faroin ide delegates,
the keynote sof the words; spoken being
the joy ;Of doing God's will fully and
deeper consecration to that will. 'After
this ,service, the entire Convention par-
took of the. Lord's' Scupper.
The delegates and visitors were enter-
tained to a most :enjoyable' tea in 'the
church by the Exeter Ladles and a soc-
ial it,our wne g enit afterwards. T con-

World's "Missionary Congress held at
Edinburgh last summer. In speaking of
our Western work Mrs. 'Wright; told the
story of the call and the pioneer work
of Miss Munl}a'e and Miss Edmonds
among the alalicians lof .Alberta. The'.
changed lives of the foreigners touch
by the missionaries was a challenge to
the expansion of our Roane Mission
work. Last year, she stated 300,000.1m
miFVrents Cane into _Canada, and -as
mans' more will ctoble ails year. It Is
our duty to see that these are niadelsthe

a o. -y sf the Edinburgh Congress was
:ult of. -special interest, telling, ,as tit
dill, of a gathering probably the Most
significant tin church history since the
d.i.ys of Penties t. And the dominant
note -o:f the Conesres,s was the supremacy
or the Lsoi-d Jesuls Christ—a, supretllaby
which must be acknowledged by full be

ended the first day of the glnwentlon
The Tuesday moaning session began
with a quiet hour led by tithsdhtne3+
:Wright and Tennant. In her Bible 1•ead-
tn0 Mrs. „ Tennant held up Jesus Christ'
before us as Tie lived here tn.!, t earth.
Then she spoke of the nece'asltY .of his
going away that the disciples might
receive power by the baptism, sof the
Holy Spirit. Sr) we may reeelve this gift,

so shall we leave plower, "If ye' theal!)be-

was filled with defiittjilte, eaanestrequests
for the endlat,nlnent of the Holy. Spirit
and 'equipment -for service.
„After the .reeding of the minutes" of
Tuesday's meetings, the notices of mo-
tion were voted upon, with, the result'
Idat the :hest motilor wast -tabled ;orune

was moved, seclonded and carried that

that it would be beat, that each delegatir

gave her report, Ctrs. McCamue spoke
01" her department as' a very inaporta.lnt
one, because it systolnatic giving coultl
be adopted the money In-eblenn, would
be solved. She s'l wed that the tithe
way the lowest 'fear«n of giving, and was
in existence even among pagan lneople.
Giving should be :pari, 0'f one's ,worship,
and :a part, from vanish 1110+ ohs should
be ex-entpt. She told an interesting
story ;of n woman, on the, Otonabee Riv-
er, who in her dire, ppverty raised from,.
S5 to 10 a' year cEax", the nlissiolEtpries,
one year making an investment /of a
fowl, utnether year of yarn. And from
that district came Rob:,' Emberspn, the
missionary to Japan. Surely the leaven
of self-sacrifice had wlorked.
Mrs. MCCamus' said abet those :report-
rung to her frioin the Dept. of Systematic
Giving showed a fine disregard for stn-
tistics, but yet the Dept. was growing
fast. Cards that she had sent out trio
varlions ',Persians, asking then: what:
they oolnsidered the duties' of system-
atic aunts. btiou'ght "tut some splendid
suggestions, such as discussion. of the
subject at every meeting, the use of
the "Christian Steward," a Bible 'exer-
else ,60 tithing, 'and tile free distribution
of literature. Our auxiliary 'reported'
that . in formeryears, they had made
111010 money by holding a church festi-
val,
estival, but last year they dtscar'ded this
in favor of a smis,sionar'y Sabbath,; with
very good results.
Io conclusion 142ris. McCaanus reoom-

"model tithe study." The questions and
skewers were as follows,
