of real help and self forgetfulness.
Your influence i the lives of the
people cannot be easured, but what
you have done for the Church is at-
tested by the large increase in itsmem-
bership, the wide ng of its activities
and the more gen ral part taken by
the people in its ife and work. Its
material progress i shown by the new
church edifice and i provements to the

judgment and ent usiasm. In yourre-
lations with the . oung people of the

your ever -ready ympathy with their
ideas and your : idance was always
softened by patie ce and pleasantness
while you went o tside the sphere of
your own work in aiding those in search
of self improve nt.
Your genlalit and your interest in
the every -day liv s of your people won
their friendship, the hospitality of your
home enriched • the kindliness of your-
self and Mrs. est was generously ex-
tended to all. s a tangible expression
of regard, we eg you to accept this
