('Continued from page One) Wingham next, $615,00; Brussels next, $549.00 and Teeswater $491.00. The, allocation was $5000.00. The aim and ideal of the General Interests Department is—To keep before the women of our church the need for prayer and effort; for the advancement of the Kingdom of Christ; to see that all departments of the W. M. S. are operating; and to help. each woman of the church to assume responsibility: "Go For- ward” is the watchword for 1932, in prayer and thanksgiving to God, for His Divine Mercy. . The dedicatory prayer was offered by a member of the South Kinloss W.M.S. and Mrs. George Douglas in a pleasing address welcomed the ga- thering to the Lucknow Church. The closing prayer was given by Mrs. S. Bowers of Ripley. A bounteous repast was served in the Sunday School room by mem- bers of the Lucknow congregation. The afternoon session opened with devotional exercises conducted by members of the Teeswater auxiliary. Mrs. McWhinney in her inspiring presidential address, spoke of the purpose of all our efforts — to give the gospel to all the world. The an- nual meeting renews our zeal and our consecration. We are dependent upon God for everything. Our gifts •are an outward expression of our zeal. We should not be satisfied to stand still, but shoutld go forward follow fhe gleam. We' should listen to God's voice speaking in our hearts. A comprehensive report of the Provincial Annual meeting at Peter- borough, was given by Mrs. Wesley Huston. This meeting was charact- erized by its interest and enthusiasm a "vision" of the lands beyond the sea. Increased intereste in Girls' works, Mission Bands and C.G.LT. groups saved the day' during 1931. Have we done our best? We may have less to live on, but we have more to live for. The church is fac- ing a crisis and a call to action was sounded. "Lowest Thou Me?" What is our answer? Love for God' is not sentimentalism. Love never faileth. Love must serve—goi We may give without loving but we cannot love without giving. We cannot pray, "Thy Kingdom Come" and not sup- port missions. The word "depres- sion" should be changed to expres- sion" in mission work. Mrs. '(Rev.) D. T. L. McKerroll of Toronto, a representative of the 'Council Executive, was the guest speaker •of the day. Her opening re- marks were quite touching, as she recalled former happy associations of over a score of years ago, when her husband served as pastor of the Lucknow :congregation. She extend- ed greetings from the Council, and congratulations from herself upon the success of the Maitland Presby- terial. Her subject in the afternoon was "Our Overseas Work" and for over an hour she carried her audien- ce with her to these far -distant mis- sions in India, China, Formosa, New Zealand .&c., where, in the past 60 years, so much has been accomplish- ed. in leading those people to a know ledge of the Gospel, through schools and hospitals and churches. Great change has taken place, The awak- ening has been gradual, but the op- portunities are marvellous, and in spite of poor equipment the harvest has been plenteous. The offering was received and the dedicatory prayer offered by Mrs. Coombe, the Honorary President.

Craw, who ex- tended greetings from the Lucknow United Church, and spoke of some of the accomplishments of the Mis- sionaries to China, in which she is particularly interested, having a daughter doing missionary work in that field. The work• of the W.M.S. is the greatest enterprise of the world, and it is undertaken by the largest organization of women in the world. It took 100 years to bring in the first million people, but only 12 years for the second million and six years for the third million.

"I lost strength and energy rapidly, and felt draggy and tired out all the time. I never had much en- thusiasm for anything and simply wanted to sit around. My stom- ach was badly disordered, I was billions and constipated almost continually. I've just finished my fourth 'bottle of Sargon, and the new strength and health I have is simply wonderful. My appetite is splendid, every trace of indigest- ion •and stomach trouble has dis- appeared, and my whole system is built up and strengthened. I sleep better than I have in years.

S n O e m v e e h v 5 S e e c At the evening meeting, Mrs. D. T. L. McKerroll was again the guest speaking, choosing for her subject, "Our Opportunities in the hone field." Happy memories of her as- sociation with the Lucknow congre- gation were again recalled before she launched into her wonderful address. She spoke of the great task laid upon the women of the church. It is no time for soft words. We must sift and see what is important. Have we a message—a mission, for Canada? Some people, who do not believe in missions, have cut out part of the Bible. Has the Gospel lost its pow- er? Emphatically "No". "We know in whom we believed." The hearts of the world are ever the same. What would this community—or any com- munity—be without the church? We need the spirit of Christ—the only cure for the gins and sorrows of the people. The Saviour died for all. The needs are more exacting to -day. We must restate fundamental things. The spirit of Jesus must permeate every soul in Canada. All problems of war, etc., can be solved with the spirit of Jesus. If we have a task to perform every one stands ready to help. In the early days of the church its members were swept in one at a time—first the individual then groups —then larger groups. Our church., is democratic—it has a message. What are we accomplishing. What about our Indians? She then launched into the work undertaken by the church in the home fields, speak.-ing of the schools, hospitals, relief work. Wel- 1,come and Welfare woks, Deaconess' work, etc. Is it worth while? A mil- lion tines `Yes'. "Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these—ye have done it 'unto me." "I was sick and ye visited me", etc. Di- fficulties are smoother, lonely hearts made happy. She reviewed the fron- tier church .extension work,—relief work through bale of clothing and cars of food, and told of the faithful- ness and preservance , of the church members on the frontier settlement. We must study the Bible so that our prayers may be intelligent, Not only must we pray, but .we must give, and give the Lord's portion first. She concluded her address by an appeal for better and more .regular atten- dance at church, emphasizing the fact that we have a mission, a mes- sage and a reward. The Presbyterial is touch indebted to Mrs. McKerroll for .her splendid presentation of the work in both the home and foreign fields. The choir of the Lucienow Presby- terian church was present and led the service of praise and rendered spec- ial music. Mrs. R. Davidson, Press Sec'y EAST WAWANOSH COUNCIL A special meeting of the Council was held on the evening of April 28 to deal with drainage matters, also regarding the operating of the stone crusher this season, All the mem- bers were in attendance.
