On the occasion of your twenty- fifth anniversary celebration will you kindly convey to the gathering' this word. "Out of Evil God's sovereign power brings good." and among the many evidences already appearing of the fresh manifestation of this great truth stands the condition! of the church of ,Gott in the world at this tune—while the nations are fighting one another in the most deadly strag- gle in history— the church is emerg- ing, into new significance as a Catho- Ile or world-wide power for good =•truly man's need is God's opport- unity—not for many centuries if ever before has the world embracing spir- it and vision of the church been so clear—that spirit is showing itself in co-operative efforts—particularly of the non -Roman Communions -spread- ing everywhere, The forces of the INiugdom of Heaven are marshalled to make the kingdoms of this world the Kingdoms of God and of Christ. The Missionary movement in the, •church -so enormously stimulated and developed during the past cent. ury is of central significance and im- portance and with the other mission- ary forces of the Church —the W. A. holds an honourable place. I rejoice in the twenty-five years service of the Mirth Deanery, W. A. I recall my late mother's interest in it, as she spoke of its meetings after her return hone from attending them. I therefore have a special per- sonal interest in the Huron. W.A. I trust that the celebration of the anniversary will be a great inspir- ation to all --and that you will go forward in the futurewith that high faith and confidence which has al- ways characterized .the women of the church and lies at the root of the great achievements of the W. A. I am—With Rind Regards, Yours Sincerely, Charles Huron. A history of the Huron Deanery W. A. was prepared by the President, Mrs. Graham and read at the lifter - noon session—Mrs. P. N.

Robinson was born in Japan, the son of the missionary Rev: .1. Cooper Ro- binson, and he spoke of the mission- ary life of the church, as its most important duty. The purpose of the church be said is to expand, to in- clude all humanity, not for social on intellectual improvement not even, for corporate worship • alone but to afford man the opportunity to meet God to worship, to go out for Him, and al- Iowing Christ to work through him to influence all with whom he comes in contact. The fundamental sin to- day, he said is self dependence, try- ing to pull ourselves up as it were by our own boot -straps while the .. force in the world, the only Hope for the world of today is the Gospel of Christ" and we shall not win the war -shall not have lasting peace so long as roan set's up his own judgment against God's.
