been termed the largest indooi gatheung in canada last sunday and it waptriily a magnificent spectacle sixteen or seventeen thousand people gathered into one building reverently worshipping on a sunday true of course there was the attraction of a two thousand voice choir and a fine military band but throughout the service there was not a semblance of anything but quiet reverence and the whole throng taking part fhe planning and organization of the whole meeting seemed perfect and the lact that the class leader mr denton massey had developed such nu organiation fiom a group ofsixteen lads a few years ago to the present proportions was indeed a o testimonial to bis abilitic and personality rut it was not done in one sudden luiist of populanty it took a period of yeais and undoubtedly much hind- work we along with thousands of othcis have enjoyed the thought and service of his energy through the radio and two yeais ago had the pleasured mooting with mr massey when he visited acton somehow as we viewed that vast gathering and we lead that thousands of olhus could not gam admission and the visitois came fiom as rui north as orilha the thought of regret passed thiough oui mind that on mr masseys visit to acton two year ago there was not a packed auditorium in one of the churches that would barely accommodate foil hundred wo expressed the regret in conversation locally and were told it would be different if the opportunity presented itself now just another lost opportunity and bow often we pass such opoprtum tie up until a man has surmounted the highest pinnacles and

however that canada had alieady sufhcient terntoiy and limited purchasing powers abroad at least it seems peculiar and hardly fair that all other annual banquets should be staged at the end of the year when the stomach is called upon to do justice to the christmas festivities lhe annual meetings of the various institution are mteiesting events these days and some timea the flguies presented are
