"His leader- ship in college days was a forerunner of his career through life. It was not long before he readied the top of his profession and . adorned that pro- .fession to the last day Of his life,' The Star underwent a great expan- sion during his term as, managing editor, and this was due in no small 'degree to his .ability, "John Bone was a man of •purpose, of sagacity, ,persistence and reliabil- ity. He, was a good man and a faith- ful pian, and he did things which re- mind us of the passages in the scrip- tures, `Well done, ,thou good anti faithful servant.' "But as a friend .I would' far rather dwell on his qualities of heart and especially because we are all gathered here, his friends, to honor him. A friend from the heart' is a wonderful' phrase and .it was abundantly true of John R. Bone. He was a true friend. ' "And the greatest test of oat Christ: aanity is in our own home life, I3eauti- .

When we met to organize last December, I am sure none of us de- velop thought it e- l velop into such an enthusiastic so- ciety and large membership. At our irst meeting in December Sir Geor- ge Foster spoke on 'Ile League of ations",. It was a great privilege to listen to such and eloquent speaker and he explained : clearly the objects and methods of the League and what it has accomplished since organized. We as Canadians feel proud to know that we have a place among the na- tions that are members of the Lea- gue, Then in January, Rev. Mr, Martin, M. P., Brantford, took us on, a;' de- lightful imaginary trip 'across Canada as far as Alaska and back. His lan- tern slides gave a very vivid picture of the country through which we jour- neyed. In February, Mrs, Livesay, Toronto, gave an interesting informal talk on her recent book "The Savour of Salt" as well as a few side lights on some of our prominent Canadian writers. During March Mr. Frederick. Grove addressed us on the Spiritual Awaken- ing of Canada. His subject was real- ly 'a synopsis of his book "The Ad- vance of America", a book which the literary critics declare to be one of the outstanding ones of the year. Our last meeting in May took the form of a banfuet at which Mrs. Ed 11 L. Groves of Toronto, .spoke on "The Kingdom of Childhood", Her charming personality bewitch d us all as she took us back to the realm where youth reigns supreme, sn In conclusion I might add that I have .been in communication with Miss Marshall Saunders, author of `Beautiful Joe';. Mrs.. Ballantyne, Mac Lean's Magazite; Hon, Wm, Finlay- son, Hon, Jas, Malcolm, Bishop Brew- ing and Professor Landon, all of whom have promised to visit us in the near future. Thus I feel that our coming year will be filled with intel- lectual treats. i Edith J. Barr, Sec'y, Executive for 1928-1o29—Hon. Pres, Mr. Morton; Pres., Dr. Redmond; est Vice Pres,, Mrs. G.

I will therefore now make preparation for it. So David, prepared abundantly be- fore his death", David wished to erect a temple to Jehovah, but God prevented this, paci- fying David with a promise that his sou, Solomon, would do this work. The task required 70,o00 ordinary la- borers, 90,o00 Allied, woi kmen and 3,500 overseers.
