Mrs. Newell Geiger and Mrs. Peter Gingerich led in prayer. Mrs. Harry Hess sang the select- ion, "Take your grief to Jesus." The ladies chorus sang, "My rec- ompense to walk and talk with Jesus." Mrs. D. MacDonald, Hensall, gave an inspiring meesage on In- dia. She said that, "this is the middle of the evangelistic time in India. The last two weeks in February men and women go out in evangelistic work. "Only about 150 years ago, the people in Europe decided to go to India with the gospel. In every generation since, people have gone. Others have stayed home to pray or to send money. The church that sends money abroad is the church that does more at home. God has given us a command, "Go ye into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature, here in Zurich and to the end of the earth. This is not optional for the Christian. Boys and girls axe watching you today, by listening to what we say when we go home from church, and while at our work. WE must set them an ex- ample and influence them for God." CWL Meets In Church Sacristy (By Mrs. Wilfred Corriveau) A fair attendance was on hand for the regular meeting of the St. Joseph's Catholic Women's Leag- ue, held in the sacristy of the church on February 11, with Mrs. Lawrence Regier presiding. Mrs. Remi Denomy, who read the minutes of the previous meet- ing, also gave the treasurer's re- port. Arrangements have been made for the making of a com- forter by the ladies.

The film will run for aipproximtely 90 min- utes. Before adjourning the meeting, prayers were read by all the members. The Evangelical United Breth- ren men had charge of the evening service, with the president, Mr. Menno Steckle as chairman. The male chorus sang the selection, "Joy of the soul." Oscar Greb read the Scripture lesson. The male octette sang, "A little talk with Jesus makes it right." Rev. C. D. Daniel, Hensall, was the guest speaker. He spoke about the Lenten season, which is being used by more and more de- nominations as a time of spiritual renewal. He then challenged the men as they were observing Men's Day. He described a tribe who would rest every once in a while when they were on the mar- ch. They wanted their souls to catch upp to their bodies. "In the rush of modern day living, we too, need to let our souls catch up to our bodies." He urged more reading of the Bible, and prayer for God's guidance and blessing. He also urged all to get their vis- ion higher, and aim to move on to higher ground, spiritually speak- ing. Our prayer should be, "Lord, lead me on to higher ground." 0 BLAKE Zurich.
