Lane, Seafo•rbh, Ont. Dear Mr. Lane,—Your car of ,rutit and vegetables came through the city today ((Tuesday). • In company with tate officers of the (Relief Commission we inspected' it and were `dmazed at the quantity of produce that was packed in it. T'h,e representatives o'f the IGover.nment had their eyes opened' to what the Church can do when they set their minds to it, and we ,want to thank ytou most sincerely for this gift. it is be- ing shipped to Briercrest for distribu- tion. The people there have suffered crop failure for three years and .from personal observation I can say. that there is practi'c'ally no vegetation, ex- cept such as has grown, since the re- cent rains. - T'he corning of this ' car will be a veritable Go'd'send. IWe are greatly encouraged by the .generosity of you good people of the East. At1 the same time we take cour- age in the fact that this Fall •we have had more rain' than for •three years past. We are .hopeful for better times, I am asking the minister to write to. you and let you 'know how your gift was d'istributed. I'Vith many thanks, Yours very sfnncerely, GEO'. DOIREY.

The greatest :of spoken 'dramas as presented by the player's from Frei- berg possesses olf wealth -of ,scenic splendors, ,massive dignity and beauty beyond -description. at tells the, ever new story of the passion from the first entrance of the Ohristu•s into 'Jrerus'al- •eitn until his resurrection from the dead. The character of. -the -Chris'tus is played 'by (Georg Fa'ssnac rt; Junior, and his intenpretation of the role is such that arouses the deepest sym- p'a'thy of the entire audience, The role Of "Judas" is portrayed by Georg IFassaia'cht, Senior. It is u•nsuual in the (drama..world to have two charaoters .so, diametrically op'p'osite as are -those .played by father and son. One, the enactment of Christ betrayed and the other that of "Judas" the 'betrayer. In additions to the cast of 31 •play ers upwards of two. hundred "Supers" will take part in some of the scenes.
