H. French with 19 ladies present. Mrs. W. Connell led in prayer and Mrs. M. Brad- burn read an interesting paper on the history of the Anglican Church in Moosonee. Since the sea was the main line of traffic for this area in the early days, the ship chaplains who used to go ashore first brought the Christian faith to the area. At this time a shipwreck or evens delayed ship meant hardship for the people. Later the kludson Bay company with. headquarters in London brought out ministers of the Church of England These men endured great hardships as they travelled among the scattered settlements and lone trappers until churches were established. In 1850 John Horden of Exeter was appointed first bishop of Moosonee. The building of therailroad brought supplies from the south and young .people left for the cities, sometimes for advanced education. This influence was felt but not always appreciated by the older people. The present church on Moose Factory Island is the second on this site. Built in 1860 and opened in 1864, it has always had two ser- vices every Sunday, ope in Cree and one in English. It is a very modern church also beautifully furnished and fills a large place in the life of the people of Moo - some. Mrs. Hawthorn read a prayer.

Mrs. Stan Gallagher led the rest of the ser- vice and introduced the guest speaker, Mr. Stuart Shier of St. Marys. Choir anthems were "The World Is Green and Fertile" and "Tell It Out". The offering was received by Mrs. t. McMichael and Mrs. Stan Hayes. "Take Time To Be Holy" was the theme of Mrs. Shier's ad- dress. She spoke of the beauty of the ' countryside and the quarel- ling in Israel and Syria. The trees are a flaming word from God as was the burning bush of ancient times. Each church is a burning bush and the place we stand could be holy ground, she said. When God wants work done he calls on a busy man: Saul was called while looking for a beast; David while looking after sheep; Elisha while plowing and James and John while` mending nets. We'hould take time to gladden someone's heart, ease the load and make a brighter life, Mrs. Shier said. We should take time to love.

Well, the first step is for each of us to begin to understand our fellow Canadians. They may live a thousand miles away. They make -speak a differ- ent language. They may be Canadians, not by birth but by choice. And the more different they are, the more understanding they rieed. That's easy to say.. But how do we do it?

That we cannot solve 144 The our problems unless we help a lot of Canadians to catch up. It's not easy to understand the other fellow.
