Owing to a number of counter attrac- tions invtown, the attendance was not what might have been expected. but what the gatheringlacked.-in numbers, it made u in enthusiasm. iMrs. Aik- enhead's ecture was thoroughly en- joyed by those who had the privilege of hearing her. Thesubject People We Meet" is one capable of being .treated humorously, or in a serious ;vein. Mrs. Aikenhead combined both 5 of these qualities, and her story, told out of a storehouse well stocked with the experiences. of life, was well worth hearing.

Douglas, `pastor of the church, stated that Mrs. Aiken- _ ihead had gone into the Muskoka Dis- V .trict.before there was an ordained [ minister in that locality and had done Ipioneer missionary work among the [early settlers there. 1He himself had I been in the district. some time after, ' and had heard at firsthand of the val- iuable work that she had done. ` R - A Early Days in -Muskoka Mrs. ` Aikenhead, before launching` ! into the subject matter of her lecture proper, took a few moments to tell of .some of her experiences in the Mus-. lkoka District in the early days. Shel u said that she was announced to preach lher first sermon before she had ever- { given the matter any serious consider- Iation. Her uncle, hearing that she was going to preach. made so much ,fun of her, that she` resolved that : she would go through with it no mat- |ter what it cost. From that time on gshe preached regularly, baptized the [children and buried the dead. She wen t.into the district before she was twenty years of age,_to teach school. One instance she `recalled. There was a drunkard .living in the district. His home was a typical .drunl s . home. When he was under. the inu- en e of liquor he was a terror, not on- 1y 0 his family, but to all with whom he came in contact. Mrs. Aikenhead re- solved to have a talk with this man. but he always managed to keep out of her way. One day she saw him walking down the road and she took after; him. caught up to him, and walked with himas far as the school. He pretended not to know who she lwas but she managed to draw him in- to conversation. She asked him to` attend service the following `Sunday. lHe said he would if his wife did not ' lattend a dance that was being held in the neighborhood that week, for he knew that his wife was very fond ._ of dancing. The. outcome was that the wife did not go to the dance, the husband kept his word and came to church, and the whole course of his ' life was changed from that time on. Thrilling Experiences Mrs. Aikenhead tookher audience with her through some of the thrilling ' .eer days. She told of drivi g one I experiences she had had in those pion-. night when it was so dark that s e lost her way and finally threw down the c -reins and let the horse find his own c Iway through the forest. She knew ; . she must be very near the edge of a g ` steep cliff, but she could not see 1 ' where she was going, so let matters 5 ' take their own course. The next day, s going back the` way she had come, 1 she traced the tracks of the wheels of : the carriage until they came to the 4 peak of the cliff. At one place, by 1 actual measurement, the" wheel track` ; was not more than an inch from the '. very edge of the precipice. - 1 - Social Climbers ' Keeping up with the Joneses -jmight -have been the title of ._9ne part of the lecture, as Mrs. Aikenhead told of the efforts of an acquaintance of hers whose idiol was society, -and ' whose greatest ambition was to have everything like Mrs. So_and`So,, who was the recognized social leader of the town. ' She had never been in this lady's house, so she_ took advantage of the first opportunity that presented ng Store First i-gt` is more than. zcrcbalxiu `tself when a reception was being eld and made a mental note of all the furnishings. Everything could be duplicated except a big book on a centre table. It was bound in leather and had gold clasps and gold corn- ers. She hunted everywhere but could not find anything like it. Finally she saw a directory. It was about the size she-wanted. She had it. bound with leather, and even had` the gold clasps ` and corners attached. She then plac- ed: it on the table in her parlor. The ` book was utterly useless. It was there i for appearances only. This was like * many people, who were always striv- ing to do things for appearances only.

League of Collier St. Methodist Church Monday even- ing, Oct. 22. Three Baraca boys dealt with various phases of the subject in a most interesting manner.
