Since then we have fallen off Considerably. • Thetotal contributions in 1932 were 'almost • •$160,000 less than 111, 1930; and in the "Huron Presbyterial $3,55.9 less. - The returns, for the first three quarters of 1933 show a decrease of $42,462' 'as compared with _.-_thee cos- r'es-po' Ldatig`1;hree_ ent teraof the see vious year.- In the achievement' of His purposes int this generation, God is seeking to work through us and hence the immediate future of 'tihe !missionary enterprise depends on men and worinen like ourselves. Our en- thusiasm and self=secrirficing efforts will 'enable 'Gods Kingdotm to extend its bounds, in our day; our failure to study and to serve will" retard ,its ex- pansion. The • policy. of the Society is not o estimate or spend beyond what tthe branches. raised. The de- crease .may cause a serious sit, atioi1. The 1934 budget calls for $9.00,000 sand our allocation is $750. Our Fin- ance Committee has made the fal- lowing estimates' for the first quar- ter: 'IEnsaelop collections, $90.00; 2 Life M,einlbers, $50.00; fees and donations,: ar.00two social meetings, $2'0.40; Associate Hlelpe'r's, $4:00.

They need our sprayers and the very best assistance we can give them.' There has also been a marked de- crease in membership throughout the Society, almost 9,000 fewer members in 1932 than in 1930. 3n ,1932 in Hur- on Presbyterial alone,- there ' were 183 ferwer members than int the previous year, and in our own Auxiliary' sev- eral hatvle fallen out. VVhy this loss in membership? There may he seve oral reasons=tlack of consecration, lack of knowledge, inability to con- tribute as others are doing, etc. Death of Samuel Fleming = • The details- of. the deartleeof .(Mr. Samruel Fleming, a prominent citi- zen of Wolseley, Sask., who was killed in a tmlator accident in Novem- ber ovember last have been received in Exe- ter.

They are odious; yet ever since history has been written peo- •ple have been doing it. It began in. the Garden of Eden, by the • devil•himself, and usually' excuses are not -altogether honest-- Jesmass Christ con- sidtered the making of 'excuses such a •gr'ave Matter' that, • He spike a par- able against it: The Parable of the Feast. WIe read: "And -they all with one consent began to Make excuses." How paltry were the excuses made 'y some of the invited guests — "I have beught a field," "I have bought five yoke of oxensi' `aI- have married a wife." No doubt they all thought their• excuses very passable, but the lord of the feast had the last word. Hear it: "None of those who were bidden to the feast Shall taste of my supper." We can go on offering ex- cuses "to the end of out days --excus- es 'for not joining the W. M. S.; ex- ruses for not attending its meetings; excuses for not 'accepting office, for not taking part in the programmes, for, not visiting, for not contributing, etc., etc., We are left free to do so, but in the last analysis the' Great Judge will have the last word. How serious a matter is .that..af our Stew- ardship! Perhaps as an. 'A-tient:se-Yr we' have been working from the wrong end, and have been stressing money, fees, ets., too strongly. We have been say- ing that if we could get the women interested, the money would take care of itself. Irl 1934 let us put more into practise, what we preach and strive to arouse more interest and enthusdastm. in the work.' It is regrettable that the splendid missionary addresses given art • our Presbyterial and Sectional meetings cannot, reach all=the members and the ndlemembers. It is not an obli- gation on the part of those who hear, to tell and. tell and tell until every 'woman knows. or course, the wo- men would tell the men, for has not some one well said that the women get their being from men, but the mien get their well-being frosni women. Then again -our organization is not the only avenue for the eependiture of otir tithes. In • these days there are many appeals in behalf of causes, just as worthy as our own, and: we could wish our purse strings were elastic and would stretch to no end. As members of our Auxiliary, I think most of us (notice I said most of us, not •all of us) most of us have been giving about all we can, 'arid to those of you who have,• whe:,her yoar gifts have, been large oz small (as men count mnoney), I have only words of commendation, and a prayer that God ill bless and prosper you, as you lave en•Eleavoured to lelp others. And 1.' will, for He Fla., promised and -Hiss premises are sure.

' These are indeed tines of . testing. We are undergoing a severe test of OUT love for our faith in and our allegiance to our Master. 'Many ,any ple have the idea that giving means parting with money for whitish no material value is received. The more one studies Stewardship the more one realizes that our gifts of money are but a fraction of what 'sur giving ought to be. Consecrated self hood is worth more than millions of dol- lars. • .... ,. . •Girve strength, give • thought, give deeds, give wealth, Give love, give tears and give thyself; Give, give, be always giving, Who gives not, is net 1•fvduig.

If God's King- cloce has come into our own hearts and into the lives of some of the groups to which we belong, we shall want to devote ourselves to the mis- sionary Cause, which aims to estab- lish His Kingdom in all hearts and in all groups." He also said: "The second basis for our, interest and de- votion "to the cadre of foreign mis- sions is knowledge—knowledge of the 'people of other lands, of their past history and traditions, of their pres- ent life and problems -knowledge of 'the: work of our missionaarises and of the native Christians who are work- ing side by side with thea.

On his death in 1922 the "Bell" sheep went to then Dominion Experimental Farm at 'Nappan, •N. S., but in 1926 the flock was disposed of.

We know, therefore, says the Scottish Journal of Agriculture, that 890 Musk rats have been killed dur- ing the last three years, all descend- ants of the few rats that escapee} in 1927. Evolution Of - Tractor flitches The "success of big vcale farming depends largely upon the amount of ,work one roan aagom'plishes.' By the use -of large power units his ability is increased in praportiou to the in- crease in the power he directs. A rector used under too light a load is not only working inefficiently but the amount of work accomlplished by the operator is less than he is able: to do. The purpose of the traitor hi'tc'h is' to permit, 'building up an economical load for the traztor and driver. Forc- ed by the necessity of devising means of pulling More than one intiplement by tractor, many farmers in Western canadaedeiveloped many typesof su- cessful Etches which were studied by engineers towards the designing of the standard 'hitches now in vogue.
