V1', VVilfred.Jur•y, Curator of the Mu emn of Western Iiniv,�:'-sty was ' the speaker of the evening. Mr. Jury said: The very important duty of the librarian is to direct the reading or the younger generation. Librarians deal with writer. records. It is Mn. Jury's duty to et -arch for reeer•ds unconsciously left by men in unexpected places, Speaking of the North Amerian Indian's culture Mr, Jury said that until the white man came to corrupt. hits the Indian had attained quite a high state of civil- ization and his morals were essent. Jelly good. He lived in more or less established abodes and planted corn, tobacco and squash. He also carried on some manutaturing as with the flints of Ipver•wash which were trad- ed as far west as the Rockies and east to what is now Nova .Scotia. Mr. Jury emphasised the importance of teaching history with the use of relics peculiar to each period an• urged the establishment of suitable quarters where local relics could be collected, catalogued, displayed and, preserved. Following the meeting a generous and tasty lunch was served by a committee of our local Library Board which was in charge of Mrs. Robert Thomson and Miss H. Downing, Brothers, Dorothy Dennis and Ruth Wilson. The service as a whole was under the capable leadership and fellowships more varied and more adventurous than the family 1 circle. But if the home at times forgets the world has its moments when it knows its need. Fellowship—what do we who are in the world say? That there is neighbourhood but little brother- hood. That we have a hundred acquaintances but few friends. The Christian hone is the first fellow- ebip. Education—+)m• world has become a technical world and to live in it much instruotlon is required, but we are weary of instruction which leaves us Iittle but poor skeletons, and we begin to see that in the most important matters the truth was declared long ago: "It is Duly atter long association in the great business itself .and a shared life, that a light breaks out in the soul." The shared life of the home in religion, in a.rt, in government, in daily wads, gives the clue to the communication. of real knowledge. Worsb,p—We know that we carr rot live without offering our last loyalty somewhere outside ourselves. Either we are on the road to being Gocipossessed or devil -possessed. The Christian home is the first Church that we know, It is "the sacred school of the knowledge of God," Annual Meeting Of Maitland Presbyterial W. M. S.
