In appealing for additional funds for the deficit. Dr.. Laird ex- plained that it was not due to de- creased givings on the part of the congregations as there had been a steady advance, but to the increased cost of maintenance, which has in- creased 75 per cent. Seven years ago it required $500 to send a missionary and his wife to China; now it takes $1,000. He said that if congregations would forward the money to the hands of their treasurer every month, or even 25 per cent. of the amount the church gives. during the year every three months, $29,000 would be saved yearly in interest. When they do not receive- the money, they are obliged to•borro v ` he banks to carry � from t ion the work; Special music was furnished by the choir, assisted by Mr.. Arthur Scott, of Windsor, also a quartette by Messrs, Rennie, Beattie, Arthhr and James Scott. The offering, bleb included a life erg, w membership presented .by tate oldest member, Airs. L. 'L.
