Hancock gave the opening prayer, followed by scripture from 1 Tim. 2, 1-7 read by Mrs. E. Carleton. Three verses from Hymn 394, "Happy the Home" were sung by everyone. Mrs. F. Lycett read what Miss Coombes had to say about prayer. She finds it helpful to look at the hands for what can be learned from themf. The thumb is far away from the other fingers. We, can.pray, for those people far away from us. The index finger reminds us of people who are pointers - teachers, leaders etc. showing us the way to heaven or leading us. They need our prayers. The long Middle finger represents thosé in authority. Heads of government and others in prominent positions need our prayers. Looking at the third finger, we think of weaker psns-those who are iii or weak spiritually need our prayers. The littie finger. represents the young or those who are kept down or consider themselves of littie importance. Such a method helps us pray for a host of people. In unison, everyone repeat- ed slowly, The Lord's Prayer. Continuing the Devotional, Mrs. Wannan, Mrs. C. Baird, Mrs. R. Hlancock and Mrs. B. Touchburn, each in turn, reviewed the petitions in the Lord's Prayer, and each explained that we sbould understand what our relat- ionships should be, in becomh- ing part of God's great purpose. We should be willing to say, "Not my will, but Thine be done". In ail the demands and clashes of wills, which enguif us, we may turn to lm as our sure bulwark. Offering, was received and dedicated with prayer. Sing- ing two verses of Hymn 388, "O Master, .Let Me Walk With Thee", losed the Devotional. Business was conducted and reports given.
