. em Page 10 The Haileyburian Mission Society Hears Mrs. Orr Mrs. Orr, president of the Lar- - der Lake Women's Federation and a past. president of the WMS Pres- byterial, was the guest speaker at the | April Thankoffering meeting of St. Andrew's United Church Wo- men's Federation. Introduced by Miss Muriel Rice, the president, Mrs. Orr gave a very interesting talk entitled "Ere Black Bearded Barbarian', which told the story of the life of Rev. Dr. George McKay, who was the first missionary sent out by the Presbyterian Church in Canada in 1873. He was sent to Formosa where he converted many of the people to Christianity. Mrs. M. B. Glazier thanked Mrs. Orr on behalf of the mem- bers. During the short business per- iod, it was decided to postpone the Father and Son Banquet until May 8, because of other conflicting ac- tivities. Mrs. G. Kirk was named as the convener for a wedding dinner be- ing catered for on April 25. Mrs. J. W. Wilkinson announced a change in the date of the Work- shop on Family Life May 9, in Trinity United Church, Kirkland Lake. This workshop has come into be- ing because of the growing con- cern for education of children in their physical and emotional de- velopment. Parents want their children to grow up into whole- some and decent teenagers and eventually take their places in life. The Presbytery, realizing many ministers, educators and _ par- ents feel inadequate to give child- ren proper guidance in these mat- ters, has decided that a workshop conducted along these educational lines will be of great assistance to all who have children under their care. The services of two outstanding authorities on the subject have been secured for the Workshop. They are Dr. R. S. Hosking and Dr. W. E. Boothroyd both of Tor- onto. Dr. Boothroyd is a United Church Minister, head of the psy- chiatric department of the Uni- versity of Toronto and a practic- ing psychiatrist, chairman of the United Church Marriage Guidance Council, a member of the Com- mission on Marriage and Divorce and the Temperance Commission. Dr. Hocking is a United. Church Minister, a former judge, and chairman of «the .United Church Commission. on;Marriage and Di- vorce, and until recently, he was the General Secretary of the Na- tional Council of YMCA's of Can- ada and isa well-informed and ' dynamic. speaker. Following the business session the meeting was closed with the Mizpah Benediction and the la- dies adjourned sto the basement where Mrs. L. Childs -was in charge of serving tea*from:a* beau- tifully arranged tea table.

Bernard Lagace, organist, start- ed out the program with brief ex- planation of the different parts of the organ, which is a wind-pipe instrument. Therefore, the artist performed behind the instrument so that the sound could be heard more distinctly. He began with variations from a German song by J. P. Sweilinck, Petite fugue en do majeur by D. Buxtehude, Musique pour positif by R. Dave- luy. Then Louis Quilicat, baritone, native of Montreal, exhibited jhis talent by singing selections | in French, English, German and Spanish, such as "'Where'er You Walk" by G. F. Haendel, and "'Je suis las" by J..S.-Bach. After a brief pause, Mr. La- gace played compositions by Pur- cell, F. Couperin, P. Martini, L. C. Daquin. He accompanied Mr. Quilicat while he sang '"'Amarilli mia bella' by Caccini, "Vittoria'"' by G. Carissimi, '"'Bois epais" and "Air de Caron" by J. B. Lully. We take this opportunity to thank our members and hope to have the pleasure of seeing them again next year. the series held in the Academy's |: Cobalt Mrs. T. Leonard and Mrs. D.
