Pollowing this summary of . the

:Same of the entetanding Points
streseed were that we should study
and use our Rine Books more ex-
tensively and that we should give
careful and prayerful preparatiOn'to
the worship service at our meetings.
Where the suggested service is used
it should be adapted to suit the
individual auxiliary.,
Miss Wiltse, She Thmasurer, re
ported that 914,190, tad been sent rt.0
the Oonference Branch treasurei
which was an Increase of 9585 over
the previons year. Bequests teft in
trust to three differesit auxiliaries
amounted to $3,25200.
Further encouragement In the
financial aspect of ouir work voas
elrpressed by Mrs. J. 0. Britton
when she stated that the ,givings of
ocr W.M.S, in London conference
Branch have pmretteally reached
their pre -depression- peak. However,
the most important advance in

the Prayer life of 'our members. We
