Ma g. o£ the James Street United church held their annual an­ niversary and thank-offering ser­ vices on Sunday last. The special guest-speaker for the morning ser­ vice was Dr, Crawford, of London, a medical missionary from China home on furlough. Beautiful floral decorations adorned the pulpit ros­ trum. The choir furnished special music. An anthem and a ladies’ chorus was sung at the morning ser­ vice with Miss Lulu Lindenfield and Mrs .E. iLindenfield taking solo parts in the anthem. Miss Pearl Wood sang a solo. At the evening service an anthem was sung with Mrs. T. Coates taking solo obligtfto. A male chorus was also sung. Sev­ eral young men acted as ushers and collectors for the day. Dr. Craw­ ford stated that it was thirty years ago that he first went to China as a medical missionary and since that time great strides had beep made in-Christian missions. Native--Chin­ ese ministers, doctors, nurses and teacheTs trained in the mission schools and hospitals were now do­ ing magnificent work and had as­ sisted greatly in extending the work and influence of the missionaries. Over half of the members of the Chinese Federal Calbinet are Chris­ tian gentlemen. Over half of the cost of the missionary work in China was now betng raised by the Chinese people. Dr. Crawford told of numerous personal experiences with native Chinese showing the in­ fluence of the missionaries in not only spreading Christianity but in assisting the people of China to im­ prove their living conditions. In the evening the pastor Rev A. Page, chose a missionary topic “Why Christian Missions’’ and delivered a very interesting message.

Disagreeable weather which pre­ vailed in this district during the past week had its effect on the an­ nual plowing match of the South Huron Plowman's Association whicn was held Thursday last on the farms of Thos. Ballaatyne and Henry Rhode, of the Thames Road', about four miles east o* Exeter. The event proved to be a splendid suc­ cess with visitors coming and going most of the day. However the at­ tendance and the list of entries was down a little from otner years. W. Oestricher,*’ of Milton, judge of the various events.

Pleasant Association and Frank Allen, the secretary, . expressed themselves as being fairly well sat­ isfied although they had hoped for more entries in some of the attrac­ tive classes which had been listed.
