We ne- cail that in Uic village o! yeans ago it was an annual event itac weekly newspaper office. The young lady who was to be in charge o! millineny at the genenal store anniveti before Uic robins. Witain a fcw hours people knew whenc she was going ta board, had formeti an idea o! hier age, anti when she walked down ta work she was readily itientifieti. The genenal store was tac larg- est ativertiser in Uic papen, and on that accounit thene 'was tance- quarters o! a column ticvoted ta Uic miilinery opcning, and the boss was supposeti to write it. As a rule hie was prctty good on gcttig a f air enough showing o! pensonal items. Each time anothen year passed ant ihe camne to the anniversary o! bis ownenship lie always wrotc an editonial in which hie mentioneti that hie coulti anti woulti if occasion de- manded wield a trênkchant pen in tac interests o! night living anti morality. Some penson hati ex- plaincd to him about hog cholena and hie wrotc a couple o! articles orn that. He coulti copy pnize lists 'at thc faîl fair, anti as a rule coulti reati his own writing. But doing a millincry opening was beyonti him; hie didn't know a bonnet lnom a fircmnan's helmet. In Uic printing office we knew the day the boss was going to tackle Uic millineny opcnxng. He'ti have on bis best suit anÏd bis whiskcrs wouhd be trimmeti with unusual scverity; tac bushy ap- peanance wcnt from tacm, anti there was about him the general air o! a man bent on conqucst. He would be presented to Uic milliner and then it was hie turned on tac heat. He bad beard o! hier before she came, and ile in thc village hati .alrcady feit a bit o! uplift from bier presence. Then came tac scnious business o! in- specting thc various bats for Uic scason, and bats at that Urne wene built, 'erecteti, constructed, en- ginecreti, manufactured.

Taking as hen subject "Sitting Where They Sit" Miss McLaurin saiti thant Uteiissionaries or any- one cisc cannot get to know people unless thcy sit down and talk with them anti get to know Uiem. The missionany work is too large for tht. missionaries alone; Uic prayers, sympathies and money o! tac people at home arc needed. "Wc nlissionanies cannot help Uic people until wc feledtant their griefs anti joys are our own. The missionaries spend slcepless nights Uinking o! tac temptations tacir young people arc in; Uiey bave ta have wistiom frorn God." The speaker pteaded for a con- secrateti Christian imagination tant wil look upon tac Telegu people with thc loving look o! Jesus. Jesus always saw thc wonst in people but he also snw tac best.

"'Our only hope is ta train native Christians to carry on so tant taey wiil flot bave ta depend on missionaries fram tac Western worhd."1 Spry, in Bowmanville, on Satur- day, March 9th. Rev. W. A. Bun- ner, a family friend of long stand- ing, officiated. The bride, given in marriage by her father, was charming in a chantrose afternoon frock with small bustie back. Her headdress rwas a dainty brown hat and she wore matching accessories. The 1costume was completed with an heirloom gold chain neckpiece more than fifty years old.

Previous to her marriage she was guest of honor at an after- noon tea given by Mrs. Crowther, Newcastle, where a beautiful cof- fee table was presented. Also a miscellaneous shower was tender- ed in her honor by Mrs. W. E. Booth and Mrs. J. Cooper, Bow- manville. The gifts were cleverly hidden in a huge, four-tier wed- ding cake. Another shower was given by Miss Grace Rundle, Bow- manville, at her home. The room was decorated with lovely pink and white streamers, ev e r.y streamer leadmng to a gift. The Rebekah Lodge, in which the bride has been an active worker, held a social evening with mem- bers putting on a mock wedding, followed by a presentation of an end table and runner to the bride- elect. Congregation Honors Rev. and Mrs.Banister ThursdayEvening A surprise farewell presentation was held in St. Paul's Sunday School, Thursday evening when a large number o! the congregation gathered to honor their pastor Rev. W. F. Banister and Mrs. Banister. Mr. Banister and family expect to leave shontly for King- ston where he will take up his duties as Chaplain at Barriefield Camp. They were completely taken by surprised when at the close of prayer meeting George Webster, one of the elders, ushered them into the room whene the crowd had assembled. Chairnrhan Chas. Canruthers presided and W. H. Canruthers, senior member of the session, escorted Mr. and Mrs. Banister to the platform. Festivit- ies began with an old-fashioned sing-song which Alex McGregor led with vîgor. Mrs. Reta Dudley at the piano played the good old songs. Geo. E. Chase, one of the Church Managers, addressed the congregation expressing pleasure at seeing 50 many present ta pay tribute to the pastor and his wife. He said: "This is no solemn cere- mony of party. On the contrary, this gathering is ta show Mr. and Mrs. Banister how much we want them to stay with us." Mr. Chase expnessed his appreciation of the splendid manner in which their pastor and his wife had led in various church activities; how- they have always kept a wplcome at their door for ail corners; how they were showing admirable courage in takmng this new oppor- tunity for service which doubtless would involve both sacrifice and danger, and how - the congrega- tion would eagerly await their return. The congregation prayed they would be enabled to return shortly. T. H. Knight, Chairman of the Board, presented Mr. Banister with a handsome engraved chrome leather purse containing a sum of money. Roses expressed the sentiment of the congregation to Mrs. Banister. Miss Helen Wil- liams assisted in this presentation. Obviously deeply moved, Mr. Banister said he hoped their absence woulil be of short dur- ation and he thanked ahl the friends from the bottom of his heart. Mrs. Banister also spoke appropriately. The usual sociability n)revailed ýor the remainder of the meeting; there was more singing; the ladies served refreshments and ail en- joyed themselves thereby giving proof to the ancient adage "part- ing is such sweet sorrow." % Rev. Banister bas been granted leave of absence by his congrega- tion for the duration of the war. 2UICKER-Dissolves inimediaely- riany tints require no boiling - 'loesn't stain hands or utensils.
