They had a large crowd on Wedwesday, and had enough left over to / warrant having a second supper on' Thursday. The tables were well arranged with six at each table instead of joining them up in long rows. Mrs. Burnham, who was in charge of the pies, made sure that there were enough shelves to contain them, which made the, work very much easier. June Crozier, the president of the W.A,, welcomed the guests: as they arrived, which created a warm feeling of friendship. Rev. Braham played many selections on his violin, accompanied by Allene Kane on the piano. We thank you one and all for your sup- port, which will place hundreds of dol- lars at the disposal of our Church, Everyone was happy because of the splendid congregation at Grace on Sunday. Our problem now is to keep on filling the Church, now our summer guests have left us, Our session agreed not to make any changes in our hours of worship until the end of October, when we would be through with anniversary services. We are hoping to give Manchester. a morning service, so that all the little children will be able to come to church and Sunday School, It is never ah easy task to minister to three churches and have one hundred percent satis- faction. The School at the "Foot" was beautifully decorated with bou- quets, - potted plants, and coloured leaves. The atmosphere of church was created by the addition of a pul pit, and chairs for the choir. The younger folk came out in goodly num- bers; but we missed the older ones. The minister's theme in the morning was "Liberty and Loyalty" and in the afternoon "An Optimistic Outlook." We say "Thank You to Grace Choir for their contribution at both services. This Sunday will be World Commun- ion Sunday, and the Sacrament will he given at all four Services. We give a special invitation to our neighbours at Utica to come and worship with us at Manchester at 7.30 p.m. Our approach with 'Head Memorial' with regards a union of all our forces on the Island, is progressing very fav- ourably. We met again on Monday evening, and outlined a basis for union which will be--submitted first to the members and adherents of Grace Church; then presented to our Official Board; and then taken to our Presby- tery for their approval, We will not publish the particulars until the whole matter has been discussed: with Grace Church. : It is possible for many of our little rural churches to unite, without the closing of this church and that. It is far better to have one strong rural church in which all the buildings are utilized at some time or other, and have the larger numbers worshipping together. We shall never have a Minister for every little rural Church; and many will either join forces or die. Your minister visited Oshawa Hos- pital on Monday and saw Mr, Edward Moles who is slowly gaining strength; and also Mr. Albert Wilson, who is undergoing a minor operation. Mus.
