Last September Mr. and Mrs. Archie Etherington took a trip to Russia, Mr. Ether- ington showed his pictures which were very good and he also gave a wonderful com- mentary which was much en- joyed.

The usual business was dealt with. The° ladies are invited to Kirkton this Wednesday May 12 at 8:30 p.m. Group U. are to houseclean the upstairs, Group C the basement, and Group W. the kitchen. We closed the meeting by singing "All Things Bright and Beautiful and prayer by Mrs. Duncan. Lunch was served by Group C and the hostess Mrs. Ross Hodgert. The Mother's Day service at•Thames Road was truly a Family Serive with many of the Young People of the con- gregation taking part in the service. The choir sang and enhanc- ed the worship with their ren- dition ofthe selection "Mother" Remember When was the title of the message, and was delivered by Mr. Lorne Thrower. It nealt with remembering all the things that were of im- portance in our lives and how it all revolved around Mother, the Christian Family, A story written by Temple Bailey entitled "A Little Parable For Mothers" show- ed both the concern and love of a mother, plus the growing and returned love to a mother by her children seemed to sum up the lesson Paul was trying to put forth. The children's story was given by Brent Dawson. The story was about a family that wanted to do much for their mother on her special day, everything fell apart and mother's special day was no different than any other. It. was pointed out that plans should be carried through, and that mother's day be made special in some manner. Rather than naming all the Young People that took part in the service, a thank -you to all is in order, and we want to tell you that you did a wonder- ful job.
