Gibbard intro- duced the speaker of the evening, Rev. J. H. Hanley, whose subject was the "Soul of Business." He spoke eloquently of the spiritual needs in the business of today.

The church women's guild raised over a thous- and dollars for these and other ob- jects. The mission apportionment of $498 was paid én full and all oth- er obligations met. The Sunday school contributed over $100 to the mission apportionment and also pre- sented the church with an addition- al insurance policy for $10,000, with the premiums paid {or the next three years. Among the Interesting sta- tistics given in the annual report it may be stated that there are 151 families in the parish, the total church population is 715 and the Sunday school has 140 scholars.

Herrington, K.C., and W. J. Doller, and all the other officers were re-appointed. The lay dele- gates to synod are F. F. Miller, R. G. Wright, and T. B. Wallace.
