The 51st. anniversary services of the
Whitechurch Presbyterian Church were
held on Sunday and Monday, May 30th
and 31st with great success. On Sun-
day Rev. Dr. J. G. Shearer, of Toronto,
Superintendent of the work of the
Presbyterian Board of Social Service
and Evangelism, delivered two stirring
addresses to large gatherings at both
services. On Monday evening the Dr.
delivered his famous address on
"Practical Christianity", illustrated by
views of the various activities of that
board. A splendid tea was served by
the ladies of the congregation. It was
regretted, owing to the illness of his
mother after the recent death of his
father, that Rev. G. M. Dunn, of To-
ronto, a former pastor of the congrega-
tion, was unable to be present as an-
nounced. The choir rendered several
selections throughout the services in
their usual effective way under the
efficient leadership of their organist and
choir leader. The proceeds of the an-
niversary services amounted to over
$400.
On Sunday evening last Rev. Geo. P.
Duncan,of Port Credit, a former pastor
of the congregation preached to a
splendid audience. Mr. Duncan recent-
ly passed through a severe trial in the
loss of his eldest son, Lieut. Gordon
Duncan, upon the batfleflieldof Europe.
Last Sunday the young people's
meeting was led by Agnes McKay and
Cora Clubb, the subject being ''Body
under, Soul on top." At the young
people's service next Sunday the sub=
ject, "Christ's Call totthe Young Men"
will be considered by Roy M. Patton,
J. F. Cook and Thos. Garton.

will be dispensed at the Presbyterian
churches next Sabbath at Whitechurch

ing held on Friday at 2.30 at Langside
