HURON PRESBYTERIAL
The following is the report of
the Huron Presbyterial Society • as
presented at their annual meeting held
in Clinton recently:
As we review the work of the past
year we feel deeply grateful to Gad
for His guidance and blessing. While
the receipts for 1 91 7 have fallen
$54 below that of the previous
year, which however, included the
special effort of $488.00 for
the deficit in the General Fund;
considering this, our ordinary givings
have -advanced rather than decreased
:and we find sufficient indication of
progress to warrant us in saying that
under existing conditions the report Is
a very satisfactory ane. We regret
the removal of our efficient president
Mrs. E, F. M. Smith, of Hensen,
from the bounds of the Presbytery,
but are glad to know that she has
been promoted to the important posi-
tion of Provincial Press Secretary,
Mrs. Montieth too, our esteemed Home
Helpers Seeleary, has been obliged
to relinquish her office for the pres-
ent. The work of these departments,
however has been carried on most ef-
fectively by our vice-president, Mrs.
James Hamilton, of Goderieh, and
Mrs. W. Sproat., of Kipper.
The Huron Presbyterial now com-
prises twenty-two . ! auxiliaries, live
circles and one associated society,
with a total membership of 748, con-
tributing $3695,76, and ten omission
bands with a membership of 397, con-
tributing $311, making a total contri-
bution of $4006.76. Fourteen life
Members have been added and 6S1
copies of the Messenger subscribed
for, it decrease of 17. Exeter records
one In Memoriam subscription. There
are 258 home Helpers who Have con-
tributed 5201.27, Twenty-six bales
of excellent clothing have been shipped
to Teuton Home, Manitoba. The re-
port of the Strangers Secretary is en-
couraging Strangers secrta'ies have
been appointed in 18 out of 23 of our
Auxiliaries. There are evidences of
activity also in Hie Literature and
Press Departments. We are pleased to
report an increase 0f 25 in the Aux-
iliary membership. Could we not
double our membership this year by
each member, bringing in one new
member, as was suggested at the Pro-
vincial meeting in Kingston?
We regret that the MacGregor Cir-
cle 01 Hensall, which was formerly
such an interesting, active organiza-
tion, has pracically disbanded for leek
of a leader. In looking over the list
of life members given in the January
issue of the Messenger, we find some
echoes from "the far flung batttle
line." Mrs. Jane Stirling, of Bayfield
being presented by her daughter,
Nursing Sister Maude Stirling, Univer-
sity Base Hospital, C. E. 1'., with a
life membership, Mrs. H. Strong, of
Exeter auxilliary was also presented
with a certifieate in memory of her
son, John Colville Strong, who was
killed in action somewhere in France.
.The reports from, the various aux-
iliarities show a spirit of loyality and
devotion on the part of the members.
Most of the secretaries speak of the
inspiration received from Miss Mc-
Laren's visit (1141 address, 44,141 also the
report of the General Council and
Provincial meetings read by the dele-
gates, Mrs, Hamilton, Mrs. Strachan,
and Miss Graham, Duff's Church, Mc-
Killop, increased their offering to cele-
brate their Jubilee Year, and present-
ed' their pastor's wife,' -Mrs. D, Cars-

bership. Leehurn reports the past
year one of great blessing and golden
opportunity to'ativaince,. They • were

Hilary, Goderieh, suggests that a copy
of the Messenger be placed In every
Bonne of the congregation. • Blyth
Auxiliary has the honor of liaising;
the largest tnembership, while Sea -
forth holds the banner for the largest
thankoffering: and yearly contribution.
Much of their success is attributed to
the use of Ole envelope whereby every
woman in 'the congregation, is appealed
to for a monthly offering. By this
method $245 was.. raised and the an-
nual contributictn increased $76. • This,

pointing, a president for the „year and

At the annual business meeting in
Clinton on Tuesday, February 5th, the
following resolution was passed: "le
our own Presbytery we would extend
our sympathy to Rev. and Mrs, Mc-
Intosh, of Brucefield in the loss of
their only child; to Mrs, Gardiner, of
Kirkton, and Mrs. M. Y. McLean, of
Seaforth, who have but lately received
the sad news that their sons had given
their Young lives in the service of
their country. To all others who have
suffered bereavement or .anxiety on
behalf of their loved ones, during the
past year, we extend our tenderest
sympathy and we pray that the Heaven-
ly Father may ever be their source of
consolation and strength."
