'UNUSUAL PROGRESS OF IBE
LUTHERAN CHURCH
Since the Rev. W 0 Miller 13. A,,
took charge of the local Lutheran con-
gregation, it has been makingunusual
financialandspicitual progress, eyiden-
sed particularly by the new life taken
on in the various societies and, organ•
zations of The church .and the ;harked
increase along all lines of financial
efforts.
In the aurinal report of the pasta
it was shown than during 1914 the,
Ladies' Aid society had raised over
X1810„ contributipg $100 for educat-
ional purposes, $50 for the furnishing
of a room in the new administration
building in process of erection on the
Seminary grounds at Waterloo, Ont.,
$25 for needed decorations in the local
parsonage etc. This society has close
to 40 members and meets the first
Tuesday afternoou of each month.
The Mens' Missionary society, how-
ever, has been no less active, for ever
since its organization about a year
ago, it has proven a most effectual in-
centive to spiritual and financial pro-
gress along all the lines of church op-
erations.,
At Christmas these members had
secured for the pastor a handsome
present, considerable over $100, glad
to lcnoty that the pastor's incolne for
1614, meant not only a free pareeenage
but over $1,000 in cash. This organ
iration has even extended its inftaence
into the greatDominion itself by being.
most active in the organization of the
C'anadianLutheran Layrnens associa-
tion, -an organization embracing all
mens' societies of the Oanacla and
l Central Synods.
What an intelligent congregation'
and what 'a blessed power for good
this, and others in the Canada Synod
could easily be, if all male members
took such active interest in church
affairs, and in the moral and socialup
lift of their community.
Here is where they could and would
learn the crying needs as well as the
glorious opportunities of their beloyed
Lutheran church the mother of Prot-
estantism. '
This society meets every Tuesday
at the church at 8 o,clock and studies
successively, home, foreign and inner
inissions,church history, biblical doctr-
ines, and social services. Over 80
names have already been entered ou
the membership roll.

It is perhaps remarkable that not
a member during the past year failed,
to pay his tines at the appointed time.

of the church, on New Years day, all
seemed delighted over the successful
year. May 1915 see ' the expanding
work continue to grow, and prosper,
each one doing his appropriate share.

In October Pastor Mille; refused a
flattering call to St Peters church,
London, at a salary of $1,500, because
he felt that for the present his services
were more urgently needed here,
and because at a meeting held after
the evening service, Oct. ' 25th, the
meinberspresent unanimously request-
ed him toremain with them. If the
liberal present by so many members
to him at Christmas time is to be, con-
sidered an expression of apprecation,
it is beyond a doubt' a source of much
satisfaction to the pastor, to think he
acted wisely in doing as be did.

the quarterly Luther league topics, of
the Lather league of America.
Those taking active part in these
programs of the league, are certain
soon to be the intelligent and snccess-
ful leaders in this and other Lutheran
congregations in Canada and the
United States.
However, the Sunday school has
probably been blessed with the most
marked progress of all. This indispen-
sable church institution, has during
Pastor Miller's pastorate just doubled
its membership and attendance, and
increased its offerings by almost $200
per year. Tho school has been thor-
oughly reorganized, and graded with
English and German classes; according
to the -well known General council
graded S. S. system. Neat and attract
ive diplomas have been 'granted to all
regular pupils.
The English Bible; class has, its
on a class officers, and nnmbere 50
enrolled, it contributed $70 for
missionary and other purposes .during
the year, There are 75 .Hames on
the cradle roll, 185 in the. 5 S proper
a total of 250. The total offerings of
theschool amounted to $248. The
aini of the school is to have 800
names on the roll by .Dec. 31st 1915.
Undotlbtedly.iiiuch of the increased
interest and efficiency of the
school is due to the fact that under
the instruction o'f the pastor, early
in 1914, some twenty teachers and
others, completed the 1ego]ar Normal

"CANADA'S RALLY TO THE EMPIRE"
The Greatest Event in Canada's' History --the Talk of the
Whole World.
When the great Armada of thirty-one big ships carry-
ing thiry•two thousand of Canada's sons, and escorted by nine
teen great British battleships, weiged anchor and sailed down
the St, Lawrence, carrying our men to aid in fighting the
Eni'pire,'s battles, few people realized all it meant to Canada,
It has been the talk of the world, Statesmen and uewspapers
the world over ooinrnented on it and cried -Bravo, Canada."
The Illustrated London News said the arrival was "an event
unparnlled since William the Conqueror," it was truly a
magnificent spectacle to see this great fleet setting sail, a
sight never be'"ore seen on Canadian shores. News of the de-
pairturo was censored and kept so secret that few indeed were
on the scene to see the big ships weigh anchor on the Gasp)
coast. This rpeetucle would have been lost to the people of
Canada'haci not The"Family Herald and Boar of Montreal had
