P, Rogers, who pre- sided throughout the evening, opened the meeting with devotional exer- cises. Mr, A, O, Parker screening the hymns used with the Sunday school lantern.

The total number of members and adherents was 602, Mrs. (Dr.) J. A. Butler, superin- tendent of the Mission Band, told 'of the band's several enterprises by means of which it had raised and sent to the Presbyterial treasury $95.

Mrs, Butler, in the absence of the secretary, Mrs. Floyd Butler, also re- ported for the W.M.S, speaking in praise of the several departmental secretaries and the good work each was doing. The Society began and ended the year with a few cents in the treasury and raised and sent $648 to the Presbyterial Treasury. This together with the $95 from the Mis- sion Band brought the total up to $743, or $20 over the allocation. W.M.S, had at the end of the year 87 annual and 26 life members, 94 contributed regularly through the monthly envelopes, and 83 members subscribed for and read the Mission. ary Monthly, Mr. J. BE. W, Philp, treasurer of the M. and M. Fund, urged a more general use of the red lettered end of the duplex envelope, A minority of the church members, were carry- ing all the burden of the Missionary and Maintenance Fund. The com- mitee began the year with a balance on hand of $1.64, received, through contributions $1359.42, and sent $1, 361 to the general treasurer, Robert Laird, leaving a balance of $.06 as a nest egg in the treasury. In ad- dition to this, the congregation made a specidl contribution to the M. and M. Fund, last Sunday of $218, It will thus be seen that the local church through the Mission Band, the W.M.S, and the M. and M. Fund contributed a total of $2317 to the missions and to the United Church's maintenance program, GOVERNMENT 15 GAINING IN MEXICO (Continued from Page 1) of possibly a few thousand troops would be no match for General Cal- les, and retirement from the city northward to Chihuahua was not improbable, Guarding the Coast Vera Cruz, Mexico, Mar, 11-- Mexican naval vessels patrolled the coast south of here today to prevent the possible escape by the sea of General Jesus Maria Aguirre, de- feated revolutionary leader, The ships arrived yesterday from Tam-| pico and immediately left for the south, Another Rebel Defeat Mexico City, Mar. 11--Decfeat of General Urbalejo and his rebel de- tachment at Canitas, state of Zaca- tecas, was officially announced here last night.
