David Wren, Stratford A very successful anniversary event was held at Chiselhurst United Church. The Rev. David Wren, M.A., B,D„ of Central United Church, in Stratford, was the guest speaker. Mr. Wren's visit was deeply apprec- ated because Chiselhurst Church was Mr. Wren's boyhood church and the first church in which he preached a sermon. Mr. Wren touched upon a few reminiscences in the opening part of his afternoon address, that caused laughter, and immediately won the wrapt attention of all pres- ent,to his inspiring discourse on the theme, "An Old Gospel for a New World." The evening service was as helpful as the afternoon service when the theme was "The Shepherd - less Flock." The church was full for both periods of worship and the mes- sages will long be remembered for their searching and inspiring quali- ties. The music this year -was also particularly enjoyed. Much credit should go to the choir leader, George T. Wren, and the pianist, Benson Stoneman. In the afternoon the choir assisted by members of the Hensail choir sang ^'I Heard the Voice of Jesus say." Benson Stoneman sang a beautiful solo, "The Lord's prayer," accompanied at the piano by Miss Greta Lammie. In the evening the choir sang two numbers, "Temple Bells," and "The God of the Nations" with Miss Lammie playing a splendid violin solo. The church was beauti- fully decorated with autumn flowers. Rev. Mr, Brook was present at the afternoon service assisting Mr, Wren but had to substitute for Mr. Wren at Stratford for the evening. REBEKAH LODGE NAMES OFFICERS 1T'.
