The pastor gave a cartoon chalk talk on "The Carpation." The choir sang "Faith of our Mothers." In the evening the pastor‘s sermon was on the "Message of Mary. His Mcother" from the text John 11: 5, "Whatscever He saith unto you, do it." In the song service, Mrs Priest sang a solo with choruses in which the choir and congregation joined, enâ€" titled "The songs my Mother sang in the Long Ago." Both services were well attended and many expressed their appreciation. & Announcement has been made by | the Canadian Pacific Railway of the‘ appointment of J. A.
