Yes,to every listener it speaks a language when it is in the hands o an artist who feels every mood and simply lives the number; the very soul of the artist is revealed in the:in- tettprcta'tion of some numbers—espec- ially the best loved works, of the old masters.

The..Chinese Christian staffers more 'for his religion than the .missionaries. IShe concluded her address by saying that this year had been the most dif- ficult for 'China since '1905 and asked that 'the missionaries might be upheld by our prayers. The Chiselhurst Auxiliary contrib- uted in a marked degree to the suc- cess of the coatventionin their play, "A 'Women's Missionary Society Meeting," in which a 'knowledge of the great work done in foreign lands by the missionaries put to flight the discouragement of almost all their members with the result that they de- cided that they would be having the. thank -offering. .1,Drs.
