and prayer conducted by Mrs. E.

E. Donnelly, Burgessville, conference
branch president, In/A., spoke on be-
half of the Woman's Association, She
appealed to all to reach out beyond
ourselves—to others who are in need.
The W.M.S. and W.A. should be a
team working together, not rivals
working against each other. Some
people find that they can serve better
in one than in the other so each should
find her special place. A square peg
cannot be fitted into a round hole.
Since every organization in the church
belongs to one body, the body 'of
Christ—all members of this body
should work togetheetharmoniously.
