M. S. have had charge of the ser- vice and on Sunday, Mrs. Wallace, Vice-President of the W. M. S. read a sermon of the late Rev. Robt. MacAl- pin, who was a cousin of Mrs. John I- ___ Marshall, and at his death was pastor of Central Presbyterian church of Buffalo. The subject was, “The length and breadth and height of the soul”. We may have the length in our own attainments, the breadth in our service to our fellow men but to attain the height we must reach out after God and accept the Christ as our Redeemer Mrs. Johnsthallgaveagoodad- dress on “The extension of the kingdom by faith and sacrifice”. If we are Christians, we should be happy, but that is not our chief aim. At least it ought not to be for “man’s chief end is to glorify God”. We should have fellowship with the Master in prayer. “The effectual fervent prayer availeth much” and “prayer changes things”. Mrs. T. MacAlister read of some of Paul’s ideas of prayer as found in his letters to the different churches. The roll call was answered by Bible pro- mises. Mrs. T. and Mrs. C. MacAlister, Mrs. Picken and Mrs. Smallman were appointed a committee to pack a bale of clothing for the needy in the West, for which two quilts have also been made. Mrs. Bin' served a dainty lunch at the close. The programme prepared for the Day of Prayer was followed. Prayer of in- teroeaslon by Mrs. MacAlllster, prayer for Canada by Mrs. Smith, for our young people by Mrs. Wallace and for the work overseas by Miss T. E. Byers.

Repeatedly at country hotels, for ex- ample, I have called the proprietor’s attention to telegrams, laundry, or hot baths which he had overlooked. Yet a hot bath in a country hotel is a major operation. shaking the whole establish- ment to its foundations. Porters, firemen, chambermaids, waiters, all join in the process. It is akin to getting up steam on an ocean liner. It takes time. it takes approximately half a day, but ah. what triumph when the tap is finally turned and hot water rushes out. Everybody must see the triumph; indeed it is only with the greatest difficulty that the bathroom is cleared. The hotel staff is helpful, gra- ciously polite and marvellously ineffic- ient. The prices «are ridiculous. two or three dollars a day. including more than one can possibly eat. Tips are often not expected. and if they are, amount to nothing. One is as likely to be under charged as overcharged on the final bill. You are let alone, you are fed well, you are charged little, you are bathed in friendliness, if not hot water. Let us take a turn around the Oaxaca market on fiesta day. Each booth is presided over by two or more persons. One person fulfils every economic need, but two or three can gossip and have a better time. This is a fiesta, not a bourse. Mexicans have an incurable habit of performing by groups rather than individually. Taxi drivers take a boy friend along and often twoâ€"one on the front seat and one supine on the mudguard.

Hub my 9 designer of the British dirigible 8.100 aremNewYorkwithanewm'eam- Sir Dennistoun brought his model No. 10 with him on the Berengaria, at the joint invitation of three Detroit automobile manufacturers. Holding that motor cars have an imprOper dis- tribution of weight. he has designed the present model on the principle of an “air-slashing” dirigible. Sir Dennistoun said the car was his tenth experiment. More than $1,000,000 has been spent on experimental cars, he said. Only four are at present in use, one by the Prince of Wales. The model he brought with him. he added. is still in the experimental stage. The car has a bow like that of a naval cruiser. He claims that at high speed it has half the resistance of the ordinary car and can turn corners safe- ly at a speed of 70 miles an hour. His car seats eight persons and, according to Sir Dennistoun, the increase in com- fort is so marked that they may read. write or pour drinks in the rear seat without feeling vibration. TONGUE TWISTERS FOR RADIO ANNOUNCEBS Twenty-five hundred voices during the past two years have repeated this sentence: “The seething sea ceaseth and thus the seething sea sufliceth us.” By pronouncing these words in a way that pleased the ears of Patrick J. Kelly, supervisor of announcers at the National Broadcasting Company, ten men qualified for the key position at the micrOphone. The other 2.490 aspir- ants were rejected. With few "exceptions all the appli- cants stammered or “whistled” the test script’s figst sentence regarding t_he seething sea. according to Kelly, who listened to them all. The examination usually lasts only two minutes The applicant must know at least one for- eign language so he can speak it flu- ently at the micmphone. A musical background is essential. Ability to pronounce musical names and terms is an important factor. But Kelly has discovered that his first tact sentence has been broadcast far and wide. so he is no longer using it. He says it won’t do any good for applicants to rehearse in advance of the examina- tion. He has substituted a new tongue twister. He reports that most of the candi- dates fumble names of foreign com- 55m And in the script use in the examination usually five groups. French, Spanish. German, Italian and Russian, appear at intervals. 80 few meet the requirements that auditions It has often been prophesied that radio would make English an interna- tional language.
