WRITE FOR CATALOGUE TODAY MIDLAND MILLS DEPT. 27 MIDLAND, ONT. n The annual fall rally of Huron Presbyterial Women’s Missionary Society of the Presbyterian Church in Canada wras held in Caven Presbyterian Church, Exe- I ter, on Tuesday, September 14, , with morning and afternoon ses- i sions. There was an excellent at- 1 tendance of delegates from Au­ burn, Blyth, ’Clinton, Exeter, Go­ derich, Hensall and Seaforth, and Mrs. 'Gordon Bisset, of Go­ derich, Presbyterial president, expressed her pleasure in seeing so many of the members present. The Scripture lesson was read by Mrs. A. H. Erskine, Goderich, and prayers were offered by Mrs. J. Parkins, Seaforth, Mrs. G. Roberton, Clinton, and Mrs. A, d. MacEwen, Hensall. The president gave a splendid message of inspiration, empha- sizinz the theme of the rally, "In the beginning, God”. "The question was asked, ‘What is the most important thing in our lives today?’ To some it may be fame, or pleasure, or wealth, or good housekeeping.. All these i things are good in their place, but Jesus said, 'Seek ye first I the Kingdom of God’. We have jail kinds of appliances'today, to I save time and labor, but what ! are we doing with the time wt save? Are we so busy doing ■ things that don’t really matter j that we have no time for the * work that God is waiting for us {to do? Are parents taking time - to teach their children to love ! God and to serve Him? Are we j helping in the work of the Sun- I day school, the Mission Band, I the young people, or visiting the ' sick and shut-ins in the hospitals j aud the homes? There is some- j thing that each one of us can ’■do if we rely on God for help,, i and what an impetus would be given to the work of every church if we would always put I God’s work first!” i Mrs. W. Sillery of Exeter wel­ comed the visitors, and the re­ port of the treasurer, Mrs. Russell, of eaforth, showing an. advance over last year. A letter was read Una MacDonald and thy Raynard of Goderich, who were the delegates sent by the Presbyterial to the week - end camp for young women held re­ cently at Kintail. An interesting summary of camp activities was given and the girls expressed their thanks to the Presbyterial.

Scott of forth, asked for increased terest in this work, and sugges­ ted that the children would love a "white elephant” table at a sale or tea, and each one would be able to bring something. The Mission Band rally will be held on October 2 in Hensall. The literature secretary, Miss B. Campbell of Seaforth, gave a list of hooks available, and asked that a literature secretary be appointed in each auxiliary, that the sale of church calendars be encouraged, that more maga­ zines be sent to Frontier College and suggested that a synopsis of the various books on sale might be prepared and passed on to other auxiliaries. Mrs. G. Walker, Hensall, membership secretary asked the members keep up terest shown last year department. Mrs. C. Hudson of welcome and welfare secretary, asked that each secretary ans­ wer all questions on the annual report form, and send the name of the new secretary if there was a change of officers. The press secretary, Mrs. A. Taylor of Goderich,, asked that members be prepared to nomin­ ate a new press secretary at the annual meeting, and as record­ ing and corresponding secretary ’asked that all reports be sent in promptly at the end of the year; otherwise it makes too much confusion at the annual meeting. A number of good ideas were contributed by the various auxi­ liaries. Some find it helpful to meet in the homes, one member responsible for the music, one to bring the hymn books, others to help the hostess part in the program. One auxiliary had program provided by ning Auxiliary and the Mission Band. Another had group lea­ ders who did splendid work, and messages were sent to the meet­ ings by those unable to come. • Other activities were weekly 'hospital visits to all Presbyte­ rian women there, which was especially appreciated by those out of town; the sale dars by the auxiliary, profit going to the Band; a talent -table meeting, and a number of extra copies of "Glad Tidings” placed in the homes, which brought new subscribers to the magazine. There was discussion on Mis­ sion Band work, and a plea was made for the churches to do something for the boys. The W.M.S. has shown its interest in the work for the young child­ ren and teen-age girls. What is' the church going to do for the boys?

The speaker brought greetings from the Synodical Society of Hamilton and London (which will hold its annual meeting in Knox Church, God erich, next year), and her topic was "Mis­ sionary Work in Your Own Con­ gregation”. She spoke of/condi­ tions in Canada at the present time, of the thousands who have no church connections, of the children who never attend Sun­ day school, and asked "What are we doing about it?” "Our faith came to us from afar. Are we passing it on, or are we too busy with material things? When the disciples were given the Divine Commission they were to begin at Jerusalem, their own home. Most of us are unable to go to the foreign field, but there is a great deal that we can do in our own church. "When missionaries come, ask them to speak to your young people and the children, knows the blessing that come from the seed that is in this way? Years ago the born was always dedicated to God.

"All these things, take time, but there is a joy in the service of God that we can find in no other way. There are open doors everywhere, and God will give us the strength for the work He is waiting for us to do.” The speaker closed with the words, "If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them.” Mrs. D. J. Lane thanked speaker for dress, The offering was received and dedicated by Mrs. H. Rivers of Goderich. “The Mission Barrel” A short play was presented by the Barbara Kirkman Auxiliary, Seaforth, entitled "The Mission Barrel”. The play visualized the theme of the rally, that social activities and money - making plans should not take first place in the work of the organization but that love for God and desire to help others must come first. Each member of the cast gave a fine performance, xind their presentation was enjoyed by all. Mrs. D. J. Lane of Clinton paid tribute to the memory of Miss Laura Jeckell, a faithful member of Exeter Auxiliary, and a past president of the Presby­ terial, and announced that a be­ quest of $500 had been received from her estate which will go to the work of the W.M.S. in Jhansi, India.
