DI.`DA`l'I1` r-- - ----- The annhhhneeting of Guthrie Presbyter- ian church was held in the basernent on Monday evening with a good attendance considering the-state of the roads. The re- port as a whole was very satisfactory and the reports from the different organizations showed that much interest is taken in the workin all its different branches. The Sunday School report showed an average- attendance of sixty-five; the Superintend- ent urged the parents co-operation in an even greater attendance. The absence of Rev. N. Campbell, who so faithfully pre- sided over the meetings for so many years, was greatly felt by members of the congre- gz-tion. During the meeting words of high- est commendation were spoken of him and an expression given of the respect and hon- or in which he is held in the hearts of-the people. Special mention was made of his research work in connection with the Shanty Bay manse whereby Guthrie church now receives the revenue from the same which formerly went_ otherwise. It was voted unanimously to give this to Mr. Campbell yearly as a token of appreciation of his work in this matter. . RELIEF lNSURANCE-If Iember is taknn =;..1, .....
