BRUCEFIELD
Mission Service. -Last Sunday the
first half hour in Sunday School was
held in commeration of the 50th en-
n:versary of Dr. Mc Kay's entry to
the mission fields of Formosa. Miss
Bessie McGregor spoke about the
early scenes of his life. One great
secret of his life was his persever-
ance. He would never give up, and
he knew not the word discourage-
ment. Mrs. James McQueen men-
tioned about his first arrival in For-
mosa. The natives ran after him,
shouting, "Foreign devil," "The black
bearded barbarian," She advised all
the young people to read the interest-
ing story of his brave life written by
Marion Keith entitled the "Black -
bearded Barbarian," to be obtained
from the public library here. Miss
Pearl Douglas read the story of a
church in Formosa, which was de-
stroyed. They dug up the founda-
tion stones and showed their hate by
spitting on the site. The natives are
not tearing down churches in For-
mosa to -day, but they are building
them. The days of opposition have
gone -the days of opportunity have
come. "Bring Them In" was sung
very- sweetly by five little girls.
Death of Miss Moodie. -Miss Mary
Murdie passed away last Sunday
night at the home of her brother, Mr.
James Moodie, after a severe illness
lasting over six months, which she
bore with cheerfulness and Christian
fortitude. She will die much missed
in our village and communitrgr as she
was a general favorite with all. The
funeral was'held on Wednesday, ser-
vices being held in the church and
interment made in Baird's Cemetery.
Notes. -We are sorry to hear that
Mr. Hugh Aikenhead's are under
quarantine for scarlet fever.

sented their parents with a wedding
cake. The following is the address:

the auspices of the 'Young Women's
Auxiliary of Duff's church. The young

McRILLOP
A Pleasant Gathering. -The hos-
pitable home of Mr. and Mrs. John
L, Kerr, in McKillop, north of Sea -
forth, was the scene of a very pleas -
ant gathering on Friday evening; un-
der the auspices of the McKillop
Branch of the Women's Missionary
Society of First Presbyterian church,
Seaforth. Although weather and
read conditions were not ideal, over
forty ladiea and gentlemen were cour-
ageous enough to venture out to the
annual missionary social, which main-
tained its past reputation of being
one of the most enjoyable events in
church and social life, owing to the
generous hospitality of the host and
hostess, Mr. and Mrs. Kerr. 'i'he
programme whrcil was pas'ticularly
interesting, was prefaced by devo-
tional exercises by the pastor, Rev.
1'; H. Larkin, D.D., who spoke of the
warmth of the welcome always at -
corded the friends of Mr. and Mrs.
Kerr. Mrs. Charles Aberhart read a
very helpful Bible reading on "Obed-
ience," which was followed by a well
prepared paper on early missionary
pioneers in Canada, by Mrs. J. R.
Govenlock. Mrs. John Finlayson also
gave some interesting items regard-
ing the work of Rev. and Mrs. Gauld,
of Formosa. Mr. and Mrs. J. G. Mul-
len sang a well rendered duet, "I'm
on Business for My King," after
which Mrs, Robt. Archibald read a
suggestive missionary story. The
I'resident, Mrs. Robt. Govenlock, re-
ported a very successful year's work,
in which she commended the enthusi-
asm shown by the members, who were
looking forward to renewed interest
in the year to come. Master Thomas
Govenlock added greatly to the enter-
tainment by an impressive and well -
rendered recitation, entitled, "Those
Millions Just Over the Sea.' Mrs. F.
H. Larkin noted the fact that the
amount contributed by the Women's
Auxiliaries and the Sunshine Missiolt
Band of First Presbyterian church,
Seaforth, for missions during the year
a total of $1,517.73, was the higheA
in the Huron Presbytery and exceed-
ed the givings of any church in Can -
oda outside of the large churches in
Toronto, Hamilton and Windsor'.
Very pleasing vocal solos were con-
tributed by Mr. and Mrs. J. G. Mullen,
Mr. John Beattie, Mr. John Scott,
which were heartily encored. Some
comic songs by Mr. George Turnbull,
also brought down the house. Miss
H. I. Graham read an article on the
Famine Relief Leading to a Spiritual
Harvest in parts of China. Mr. Thos.
Grieve gave some good violin selec-
tions. Mr. Harry Livens and Mrs.
George Turnbull acted as accompian-
ists. After the offering was received,
all present did ample justice to the
good things so abundantly provided
by Mrs. Kerr, who is an adept in the
culinary art.
BRUCEFIELD
The Irish Social. -The St. Patrick's
social, which was held Friday even-
ing, was a "rale" success and we will
tell you why. Our home talent put
un the programme, Rev. Mr. McIn-
tosh, acting as chairman in his usual
happy manner. He gave a short ad-
dress on the Patron Saint. Miss
Lammie, of Hensall, rendered some
choice sejections on the violin, ac-
companied by Miss A. Rattenbury as
pianist. She also gave instrumental
numbers on the piano, and is a real
artist in her profession and is a fav-
orite with Brucefield people. One
number put on by five young ladies
and four young men, was especially
good, the title being "Why We Never
Married," Old-time costumes were
worn and they received a hearty en-
core. One of the best numbers on
the programme was a Soliloquy taken
by Miss Jessie Aikenhead. Jessie is
an original as well- as a natural ac-
tor. The reading of the Circle Gaz-
ette was a great hit and caused a
ripple of excitement. We will be
looking forward with interest for
some of the coming events mentioned
in that paper. The contests were ab-
ly managed by Mrs. Arthur McQueen
and the questions required deep think-
ing, although some of the groups
managed to carry off the prizes. Miss
Laura Swan and Irene Snider sang
solos. B. Boyce and Miss Boyce gave
a musical selection. Mrs, Thos. Chap-
man and Mrs. Aikenhead were the
hostesses of the evening, Miss M.
Gibson and Miss M. Gilmore assist-
ing The buffet lunch was served in
cafeteria style. Sure there were
murphies and green tea and buns
served on the Canadian plan. There
was potted chicken and meats and
mounds of green jelly with other
dainties. The basement was attract-
ivtly decorated with shamrock and
Irish emblems, the harp and picture
banners. The waiters wore green
caps, faced with white, and shamrock
aprons designed and made by Jessie
Gemmel. One of our former mem-
bers, Miss M. McEwen, now of Cleve-
land, sent as a gift a number of green
caps and table decorations, which
were much appreciated by the mem-
bers. Although roads were almost
impassable, the basement was filled,
the proceeds amounting to $45.
Notes. -Mr. James Swan and Miss
M. E. Swan ieft Tuesday morning to

USBORNE
Thames Road Notes. -One of the
oldest landmarks in this vicinity,
Bethany Methodist church, suffered
severely from the wind on Monday
morning of last week. The greater
part of the roof was blown off and
the east gable end was blown In,
smashing the two large stoves and a
number of the seats to splinters. The
organ, pulpit and chairs were re-
moved on Monday forenoon to a place
of safety, and the windows were also
taken out. This church has stood on
this corner for over fifty-four years.
The jubilee services were (held in
October, 1918. The congregation at
one time was a strong one and this
was one of the appointments of the
Elimville circuit until Bethegeda
church was closed, since then the pas-
tor of Main Street Church, Exeter,
has been preaching in Bethany each
Sunday afternoon. The congregation
has been gradually getting smaller
