Eustace of Orono, addressed the meeting on Christian Stew- ardship. Miss K. Rutherford of Angola brought greetings from the church in Africa. Reports were presented in a different form from other years in that each person present was furnished with a mimeographed report of ail the various organiza- tions of the church and the repre- sentative of each, instead of read- ing the report only spoke to it, pointing out the most noteworthy1 features. In this manner less time was consumed and greater in- terest was created. The Session reported a decrease in the number on the roll of church membership due to a larger num- ber of transfers to other churches, stimulated by the efforts of the session to relate ail who have set- tled in other communities to the church of their new location. During the year eight persons were confirmed in church mem- bership. Three separate efforts in the raising of overseas relief were reported.
