The lord bishop and Mrs. Mills received in the library, from where the guests moved to the drawing room, through the hall, out into the conservatory, and even to the lawn, finally convening in . the dining room for refreshments. A de lightful little musical programme, with Mr. Harvey in charge, was taken part in by Mrs. Beits, Miss Bates, Miss Mona Knight and Mr. Charles Harvey. Perhaps nome enjoyed the affair more than the clerics, many of whom have but one holiday in the year-+synod week. "This is all very nice for us you know," said one hand- working priest, as he glanced round the wide rooms, and the. pretiily frocked women, and there was gen uine pleasure in his tones, and if its pleasant for the clergy who come to Kingston from out-of-town pariehes, to come in touch with the city's so cial life, its doubly pleasant for the city to come in contact with the eager enthusiasm, and the practical zeal, which is found to such a refreshing extent in the ranks of the country clergy. Many of the guests had the plea sure of meeting the Rev. I. Norman Tucker, and the Rev. H. J. Cody, both guests at "Bishopscourt," who moved about through the throng, chatting here and there, and the deep and pleasant impressions left by their most enjoyalie, public speeches, were renewed on closer acquaintance. Amongst the out-of-town guests present were: Mrs. Forsythe, Mrs. Beamish, Mrs. Wright, Mrs. Forster, Mrs. Edward Moore, Mrs. George White, Miss Ethel White, Mrs. Fred McGachen, Miss Ethelwyn Loucks, Miss Florence Nash and Miss Lola Henderson. * - .

Isle of Wight. He is believed to. bave written 500 hymns; meny are medi- ocre; a féw will last as long as the English language. One of Wesley's First. 'Losus, Love of My Soul" was SuggRSted to Charles Wes by a seabird flying to him for i during a storm. Tt was one of the earliest that he wrote.

Wyman for Brides The now popular wedding hymn "0 Perfect Love' was written 1883 by Mrs. Dorothy Gurney, her sister's marriage, the tune "O Strength and Stay." for the wedding of Princess Louise . pf Wales. Canon Ellerton's "0 Fath- | er, AllCreating," was composed ati the request of the late Duke of West- | minster for 'the marriage of his daughter to the Marquis of Ormonde | in 1876. "From Greenland"s Icy Mountains' was written by, Heber in twenty minutes in 1819, and the puly correction he made was to sub- stitute "'heathen" in the second verse for "savage." A most interesting chapter is that on children's hymns. Charles Wesley wrote the best known of, all, "Gentle Jesus, Meck and Mild," in 1740. It has been said that he wrote it for his own children, but this is a mistake, for he did not marry until some years afterward, "There is a Happy Land' was writ- ten by Mr. Andrew Young in 1838, at Rothesay, to go with a tune which he had heard a little girl playing.

The magnificent 'Eternal Father, Strong to Save," was composed by Mr, William Whiting.
