of Acts, "The Birth of the Church,"
and spoke on the foundation of the
church to its present time. Mrs. B.
Edwards offered prayer; Mrs. J. B.
Fox, wife of the minister of the
church, introduced her sister, Mrs,
J. I. Richardson, wife of Rev. Rich-
ardson, Baptist missionary in In-
dia, both now home on furlough.
Their Canadian home is at Hamil-
ton. Mrs..Richfirdson, guest speak-
er, addressed the groups, choosing
for her theme, "Religious Condi-
tions in India," and opened her ad-
dress with the first verse of "Be-
neath the Cross of Jesus." The
speaker stated that the question
might be asked, "Why not leave the
people of India to their own re-
ligion?" The native religions are
not an intimate relationship of
love with the Supreme'Being, but
beliefs based on fear. India is in a
state of transition. Some are dis-
carding their old religious beliefs
and profess a form of atheism.
Some are good subjects for Com-
munistic doctrine, which is getting
a, foothold. Others are hungry for
the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and this
is the time to defeat 'Communism
with that Gospel. In speaking of
the danger of Communism, she said
the problem is not Hinduism vs.
Christianity, but Communism vs.
Christianity. There are great oppor-
tunities in India at the present
time to do missionary work, and
stressed the value of prayer for
conditions in India. Mrs. Richard-
son concluded her address with the
53rd chapter of Isaiah, and said
what a comfort it was to mission-
aries when they became discourag-
ed in their work. Soloists were Mrs.
Harold Simpson, Exeter, and Mrs.
Jas. W. Bonthron, Hensel]. Mrs.
Earl Mitchell, on behalf of Exeter
Society; Mrs. W. B. Cross, for the
United, end Mrs. R. H. Middleton,
St. Paul's, expressed a vote of
thanks. Refreshments were served,
including a " birthday cake. 'Recep-

W.M.S. Holds Meeting
The regular meeting of the W.M.
S. was held Tuesday afternoon
with Mrs. Ross Scott, Associate
Helper's secretary, in charge, and
Mrs. Alton Johnston at the piano,
with. a good attendance of mem-
bers and \associate helpers present.

trusts us." Mrs. Allan, president,
had charge of the business period.

forfth„ to visit them on the eve-
ning of June 24. .Miss Edith Bow-
ey gave the supply report and said

been sent, also a complete outfit
for an Indian girl. Mrs. Dalrymple
gave a very encouraging treasur-
er's report, The program on' Chris-
tian Stewardship was taken by sev-
eral members, The first reader,
Mrs. Stackhouse, read several pass-
ages of Scripture proving God is
the owne rand giver of all. "Stew-
ards of Ourselves" was taken by
Mrs. L. Wilson; Stewards of the
Gospel, Mrs. H. Dayman. Prayers
were offered by Mrs. R. Allan, Mrs.
R. "Watson and Miss E. Bowey. Af-
ter Hymn 362, Mrs. 3. Cairns sang
a beautiful solo, "Others." Read-
ings on Christian Stewardship were
very,thought provoking and inspir-
ing. Mrs. R. Scott on "What is
Christian Stewardship," was fol-
lowed by Mrs. Allan, who spoke on
Jesus' attitude toward the acquisi-
tion of wealth; Mrs. L. Eyre on
Jesus' attitude toward making of
money, and Mrs. W. Haugh on
"Can possession of wealth be a
blessing?" Mrs. W. Maines led a

peating Hymn 364.

"Mr. J. Petty and the secretary

of Mr. Hallies, now in the church.
Mr. Petty paid $1.00 and Mr. Deuch
45 cents. Mr. Petty read a state-
ment of the finances as treasurer
of the 'building committee. The
Vestry took into consideration the
practability of getting up an en-
tertainment of some kind in order
to replenish the -coffers of the
church without arriving at any
definite conclusion. A committee
was named to consider the matter
and act, after which the incumbent
closed the meeting by the benedic-
tion. F. Ryan, chairman,:
The building was raised in the
summer of 1922 daring the incum-
bency of Rev. H. Naylor, to provide
a place for the furnace and Sunday
School room. This replaced the
quaint little M'ission Hall whirh
stood right beside the church near
the shed. This Mission Hall, re-
nowned for its hearty it somewhat
cramped social gatherings, was sold
and moved to a neighboring farm,
but its pleasant associations will
live on in the memories of the peo-
ple who met there.
With the coming of Rev. H. O.
Bridgman, a new parish was form-
ed, of St. Paul's, Hensall; Grace
Church, 'Staffa, and St. Mary's
Church. Dublin, with the clergyman
resident in Hensall, though as yet
there was no rectory owned by the
parish. During the summer of 1919
a new rectory was bought on Ox-

bath were installed.

ful memorial window was placed in

St. Paul's Anglican Church, Hen-
sall, was built in 1876, and the
original building still stands. John
Petty and William Wilson, the first
Wardens, along with Cornelius
Purdy, were selected by the churci
members of the community as a
building committee to erect a
church. Their efforts were so suc-
cessful that the present frame
structure—then without a basement
ett
—was completed early in 1877, prior
to the station, a year before the
post office was located in the vil-
lage.
The church was opened for wor-
ship on June 10, 1877, as an out-
station from Exeter, with regular
service at 3 p.m. each • Sunday,
Dean Boomer, of Huron College,
preached in thd' morning, and' Rev.
John Gemmel, curate at St. Paul's
Cathedral, London, preached in the
afternoon, and the rector of the
new church, Rev• F. Ryan,•conduct-
ed the- evening service. The liber-
ality of thea congregation was so
good, Mr. Ryan wrote, that with the
help of their fellow churchmen in
Exeter, the new church was entire-
ly free from debt when it was com-
pleted, except for the organ and a
Pet” details of furniture. The struc-
ture built by sturdy pioneer work-
manship, combined with Old Coun-
try achitecture, has remained a ser-
viceable and • attra.ctive place of
worship for the succeeding genera-

The regular services were usual-
ly at 3 p.m., until May 2, 1886, when
alternate morning or evening ser-
vice was held at Staffa by Rev. 11.

How Much Will
YOUR Dollar Buy_ .
Today, thanks to inflation, our dollar will buy 52 cents worth of
goods by comparison with the full dollars worth it would buy in
1939. ,
,
The buying power of the dollar has gone down because prices
have been forced up. Prices have been forced up through infla-
tion because the amount of money in circulation has exceeded the
volume of goods and services available to consumers.
The two main sources of inflation are high government taxation
and wage rates which are not related to man-hour production.
Unless production and wages are held. in balance, and unless at
the same time non -defence government expenditures are held in
check, our dollar is bound to lose more buying power.

service at the opening of the church
and that a copy of this resolution
be forwarded to him; carried.
"Mr. J. Petty and the secretary
paid' the freight due on the organ
of Mr. Hallies, now in the church.
Mr. Petty paid $1.00 and Mr. Deuch
45 cents. Mr. Petty read a state-
ment of the finances as treasurer
of the 'building committee. The
Vestry took into consideration the
practability of getting up an en-
tertainment of some kind in order
to replenish the -coffers of the
church without arriving at any
definite conclusion. A committee
was named to consider the matter
and act, after which the incumbent
closed the meeting by the benedic-
tion. F. Ryan, chairman,:
The building was raised in the
summer of 1922 daring the incum-
bency of Rev. H. Naylor, to provide
a place for the furnace and Sunday
School room. This replaced the
quaint little M'ission Hall whirh
stood right beside the church near
the shed. This Mission Hall, re-
nowned for its hearty it somewhat
cramped social gatherings, was sold
and moved to a neighboring farm,
but its pleasant associations will
live on in the memories of the peo-
ple who met there.
With the coming of Rev. H. O.
Bridgman, a new parish was form-
ed, of St. Paul's, Hensall; Grace
Church, 'Staffa, and St. Mary's
Church. Dublin, with the clergyman
resident in Hensall, though as yet
there was no rectory owned by the
parish. During the summer of 1919
a new rectory was bought on Ox-
ford Street, and later a furnace and
bath were installed.
In December, 1924, a very beauti-
ful memorial window was placed in
the chancel by 'the heirs of the
Petty estate, in loving memory of
( By Mrs. Maude Hedden)
St. Paul's Anglican Church, Hen-
sall, was built in 1876, and the
original building still stands. John
Petty and William Wilson, the first
Wardens, along with Cornelius
Purdy, were selected by the churci
members of the community as a
building committee to erect a
church. Their efforts were so suc-
cessful that the present frame
structure—then without a basement
ett
—was completed early in 1877, prior
to the station, a year before the
post office was located in the vil-
lage.
The church was opened for wor-
ship on June 10, 1877, as an out-
station from Exeter, with regular
service at 3 p.m. each • Sunday,
Dean Boomer, of Huron College,
preached in thd' morning, and' Rev.
John Gemmel, curate at St. Paul's
Cathedral, London, preached in the
afternoon, and the rector of the
new church, Rev• F. Ryan,•conduct-
ed the- evening service. The liber-
ality of thea congregation was so
good, Mr. Ryan wrote, that with the
help of their fellow churchmen in
Exeter, the new church was entire-
ly free from debt when it was com-
pleted, except for the organ and a
Pet” details of furniture. The struc-
ture built by sturdy pioneer work-
manship, combined with Old Coun-
try achitecture, has remained a ser-
viceable and • attra.ctive place of
worship for the succeeding genera-
tions.
The regular services were usual-
ly at 3 p.m., until May 2, 1886, when
alternate morning or evening ser-
vice was held at Staffa by Rev. 11.
O. Bridgman.
A copy of the first vestry meet-
ing, held in 1877, reads: "Pursuant
to notice, a vestry meeting (bhe
first atter the formation of the con-
gregation) was held in the church
at Hensall, Monday, June 25, 1877,
