"Happy the Home When God .Is There" was the hymn which opened the May 6 meeting of the Women's Missionary Society of Knox - Presby- terian Church. Seventeen members met at the home of Mrs. Jack Jenkins. Mrs. Alba Mundell read from John 3:14-21 and Mrs-. Jenkins gave the comments, saying that,;God gave us life, land, die -ark and the 10 commandments. 'He also gave us freedom, fresh air and plenty of water, 'for which we should be thankful each day. Mrs. Mundell read a poem, followed by prayer. UCW members' stud focuses on Psalm 119 BRUSSELS—On May 5 Mrs. Ida Evans entertained the members of the af- ternoon unit of the United Church Women in her home with 17 ladies in attendance. Mrs. Evans welcomed everyone and led in prayer followed by a poem, "The Door of Happiness". • The Bible study of Psalm •119 was convened by Mrs. Alice Brothers. This psalm] is often referred to as David's Diary, as so much of the thought contained in it is repeated. It is composed of 22 stanzas.of eight verses. Each ' stanza is headed with a letter of 'the Hebrew alphabet in consecutive order. David's theme throughout the psalm is "Thanks be to God" and his appreciation of the word. Due to his deter- mination to keep and obey God's •law, he became a strong man although David too, fell as it was, and it is still possible for man to be obedient to God's laws at all times. The word is a light—a lamp unto our feet and a guide at all times. Do we appreciate the 'great heritage which is ours in the Bible as the word of God? Verse 72: "The law of thy mouth is better unto me than thousands of gold and silver." In our modern world we are guilty of placing so much importance pn money and the love of material wealth. Yet at so many times these things are meaningless compared to God's love for us. Through earnest prayer, faith and study, it provides us with the peace that passes all understanding. Mrs. Eleanor Hemingway had charge of the Mission Study which considered the work of Reverend Chandoo as an exchange minister in the Alberta conference. He, his wife Aurora and two children came from Trinidad—and island almost the size of Huron County. A question and answer period followed the study. Mrs. Sara Stephenson favored the group with two solos, accompanied on. her guitar. A bake sale will be held on May 23. The general , UCW and visitation will take place on May 19.

One of the gifted members, . Mrs. Gordon Mundell, presented the topic by posing as aa African missionary • who 'had returned to Cape Town, South Africa, . from Toronto. The 'setting of the meeting was. a group of African ladies who had in-. vited Mrs. Mundell to speak at their' meeting during her furlough and talk abqut the Canadianway of life. She said she found Toronto to be a very large city and the Canadian language to be a burden: There were large churcrhes, some with good attendance and some not. Also it was difficult to under- stand why some ,people eget so upset if . the. service is a little more than an -hour long, when in Africa it is two .or three hours. There are many teenage problems such as alcohol, drugs, premarital."shacking up", single parents . and abortions. " They have huge stores' called supermarkets with so much food. Both men and women wear pantsuits with the younger people all wearing jeans. ; You must have a sweater, because sometimes it gets; very. cold .

Money can buy everything but heaven. Please pray for the people of Canada. Mrs. Mundell concluded with a variation of the 23rd -Psalm. Mrs. Bernard Thomas, presented a life membership to Mrs.. Mundell, thanking. her for ' her devotion and contributions -to meetings in the past years. Mrs, Mundell expressed her surprise and thanks' to all. A hymn was sung to close the meeting, followed with lunch served by. Mrs. Mundell and Mrs. Jenkins.
