on the hauds of Secretary B. S, Scott in
arranging for the distribution of the

Brussels Society for its upwards of loo

be imagined when it is stated each mem-
ber had 4 options and hardly any two of
them are the same, covering a wide
range. We are sorry to say the Begonia
order has not been filled, although sev-
eral houses were applied to. The war
and the submarine menace debarred
many of the shipments from Hol-
land reaching our shores. A substitute
for the Begonias may be arranged for.
The fruit trees sent tor are expected!to
arrive by the close of the week and per-
sons who ordered them should be on the
alert to get them planted, Several lots
of shrubs and bulbs have not been call-
ed for yet and may be bad at THE POST

one of she principal features ou the
program and looked forward to with
interest. It was a summing up of the
year's work, the eifferent departments

on the increased interest in various de-
partments was marked throughout
and was a stimulus. We were grieved
at the annual meeting last year, that

year that it has been wiped out and
the Society bas stood the test, and each

zealous and persistent effort in the
future. The address was delivered by
Mrs. Mann in an earnest and tactful
way and will bear much fruit in the
incoming year.

spoke appreciatively of the Presbyteri-
al and its broadening horizon,
Rev. D. Perrie, \Gingham, gave the
first addrese on the theme, "The pos.
session of the Missionary spirit" and
the impossibility of disassociation of a
Christian and Missions. There must
be included the spirit of life, convic.
Hon. obligation, achievement and a
new interest in the home life ea to the
Bible and Ohristian living. The earn-
est words of the speaker were, most
timely,
Anaddress brimfull of interest and
instruction was given by Rev, elr,
Goforth, on Corea, He pictured its
past history and the ;progress that
marked the passing years in their em-
bracing Christianity. As proof of the
thoroughness of the work the speaker
dealt with their evangelistic zeal ;
their generous contributions ; their
love for the word of God ; their desire
to may aucl attaud worship ; the way
they stand persecution for Christ's
sake and urged the home church. Lo
seek after the larger consecration and
a life of vigor and earnestness.
The visit of Rev. Mr. Goforth to the
Convention as the representative of
the work in China, was etimalating
and will do much to cause increased
zeal and financial help in carrying on
the work of the Master both at honkie
and abroad.
