Bracken, M.A., mission- ary on furlough, from China, was the preacher at the evening service in Sydenham Street Methodist" Chiireh on Sunday. Rev. Mr. Bracken wha has been in China for many years, is in touch with conditions there, and knows whereof he speaks. The ques-| tion which the eastern people ask, after dealings with the westerners is! "Can the Christian nations deliver the goods?" If they don't, it is not the fault of the missionaries, as they have accomplished great things and if the work fails it will be because the Christian people from the west- ern countries have failed to support the missionaries, said the speaker Calvary Church. This church held its annual Har- vest Thanksgiving yesterday when the church was nicely adorned with a goodly supply of fruit of all kinds. Referencé was made to the bountiful harvest, by the preacher, and less- cuc of gratitude and thanksgiving were inculcatéd in a suitable sermop from John xii, "The house was filled with the odour of the oint- ment."' This deed of Mary's was com- plete in itself. It was no half mea- sure, for the box was broken never to be used again and all the contents were poured in profusion over the feet of her master.
