I Women's Missionary Society discuss theme of remembrance GORRIE--Mrs. David Neilson hosted the Women's Missionary Society of Knox Presbyterian Church, Gorrie, when members met earlier this month for a time of fellowship while sharing desserts. "Remembrance" was the theme of the meeting which the president opened with the poem "In Flanders Fields". The Aim and Purpose was repeated in unison and all joined to sing "Dare To Be a Daniel". Mrs. Glenn Underwood read Paul's description of the battle dress of the Christian, as recorded in his letter to the Church at Ephe- sus. She presented the history of Remembrance Day which originat- ed when the Armistice was signed at the I 1 th hour of the l I th day in 1918 to end World War I. The observance of this day was confirmed in 1931 and in 1970, Re- membrance Day was declared an official holiday. While the majority of veterans from World War I were men, Mrs. Underwood observed, she noted that the stellar perfor- mance of women on the home front was responsible for the franchise being extended to women in Cana- da. Mrs. Underwood concluded the worship period evith prayer and "0 God, Our Help in Ages Past" was sung. The roll call was answered with a thought on remembrance and six visits were reported. Mrs. Alvin Mundell and Mrs. Harvey Adams made contributions to the birthday box. A letter from Armagh, a home for families in crisis, was read. Mrs. Mundell spoke on the top- ic, "Threatened by Resurrection". After reviewing the story of the women's visit to Christ's empty tomb and their discovery of the res- urrection, their reactions to this momentous event were examined. Using the background of the WMS purpose, the future of the so- ciety was considc,ed under the fol- lowing topics: strengths, weakness- es, opportunities and threats. Mrs. Mundell concluded .the study by reading an article entitled, "What is the WMS?" "Breathe On Me, Breath of God" was the final hymn and Mrs. Neil- son closed the meeting with a prayer. Mrs, Underwood hosts ACG November meeting GORRIE--St. Stephen's Anglican Church Guild held its November meeting at the home of Jean Under- wood recently. She was assisted by Barbara Bennett.

A representative of the Chil- dren's Aid Society had asked if the guild would donate new clothing for older girls. A box will be placed in the church for these arti- cles.
