S. 0. E, or Knox church was givenover entire- ly to the Mothers. Mre. Wm, Kelly led the meeting Mrs. MoCleuuaghan took the Scripture reading, and Mre, Oliver Anderson addressed the meet- ing in a splendid manner. Subject was "Being a Christian in the Home," She said there were three important points : (1) That Christianity in the home should be practical. There was no uee preaching to the children and not living up to it yourself. It took school children only about a day or ea to size up their teacher if she taught one thing and did another and just so with parents. (2) It should be healthy and constant. One needs to be ever on the guard against Satan who goeth about as a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour, (8) It should be pray- erful, We should not only pray for nor family or others but with them, Many a young person has been kept from doing wrong by the remern• brance of his mother's prayer. She quoted from Scripture Gal, 5:22.26, also I Peter 6;5.11. These are beauti- ful paseages and she thought were the key to the whole matter. Mrs. Vin- cent; led in prayer, Mrs. Jas. Michie rendered an appropriate solo Mies Annie Geddes gave a short reading entitled "Mother" ; Mr. Goodwell led in prayer and the singing was enjoyed.
