Allen and Mrs. McKague of Castleton Auxiliary. Members of the Dartford Auxiliary opened the afternoon session with a (period of devotion. A vocal duet, "Bless this House" by Mrs. H. Ireland and Mrs. J. LacKaye, Brighton, was rendered in dedication to the new church, after which a play entitled Watch Your Step", written by Betty S. Wolfe, was put on (by members of Carman auxiliary. Worship services at Western section were taken by members of Gore's Landing and Cold Springs auxiliaries, choosing as their theme "God Never Leaves Himself Without a Witness" and "One Day at a Time". Reporting at both sections were departmental secretaries of Presbyterial who gave brief messages in connection with the work of corresponding secretary, press, literature and missionary monthly departments. Mrs. Harvey Bryson, Grafton, Baby Band secretary addressed both rallies and filled with enthusiasm. She said baby band is a link for the mother, family and church. A number of meetings in. the year gives better results than an annual "event". The children pay better attention and believe their leader but stories must be told, not read to hold interest. Giving of money is not the important point but it teaches children to share learning the need of other children they share their coppers and later share their dollars. A two year old baby band member demands a blessing at home meals having learned about the blessing at Band. The Baby Band leader needs the help and interest of the mother organization of Woman's Missionary Society. Mrs. W. H. Underwood brought Echoes of the 50th Conference Branch bienniel held in Oshawa in March, when 150 delegates and officers wer present to hear Dr. Long, Miss Dulcie Ventham, Mrs. L. H. Cragg, and others. Greetings were received from Mrs. E. Lean, Presbyterial President on both occasions bring thoughts from the Dominion Board. Guest speaker at both rallies was Miss Ila Brown of Toronto in Home mission work. Miss Brown asked for our prayers for all missionary work. She told of having worked at various points across Canada, from Victoria, B.C., to Sydney, N.S., with Newfoundland still not visited'. The great need is missionaries. The Board asks not so much for money as for workers. Some fields where two workers had been now have none, though the need is there. Too few are qualifying. Why- are there no workers? The range of work is broad, teachers, nurses, social and medical workers, evengelists, etc. At her last appointment at Sault Ste. Marie her work was divided 'between the work at All Peoples church and church extension work in the new areas. She found people hungr" for God. Not just the new Canadians but Old Canadians living as in one instance in an area which called for a 3-room school but there was no church. Here a Sunday school was started by Miss Brown, then the women asked that something be organized for them. So an association was started, when that was operating they said, "Now we can have a church", so the work grew until a church was built and dedicated. Time for the dedication arrived, in the absorption of the work of building no one had given thought to a name. After a discussion they said, "God is with us", so the name Emmanuel wa3 chosen. Miss Brown closed with a warning that our churches be not "ours" which must not be used or must not be marred because we have built the building well, and drew our attention to the mission Hymn 261. At the end of furlough Miss Brown will go to a new field to her in Pincher Creek, Alberta. The Eastern section were invited! to Stockdale church and the Western section to Gore's Landing for the rallies in 1956. -- Mrs. C. G, Marshall, Press S«(c(r«<tar^.
