Smyth 2--The Wife of Pilate As a man of Science recon- structs an extinct species as the result of the discovery of a bone, so the wife of Pilate rises out of Scripture in a single sentence provided by Matthew. She is like a sketch in an artist's note- book evidently intended to be used later as material for a full length portrait. Due to life's haste, the work was never fin- ished and the world is immeas- urably poorer, : 1. She is revealed to us in a situation "where her unrivalled moral and spiritual splendour is manifest. She is known for nothing but her goodness. What a commentary on a life! She illustrates the integrity that may flourish in the fierce white light which beats upon a throne. .2, Possibly indebted to the wife of Chuya, one of her ser- vants, and a disciple of Jesus, her life would illustrate the loyalty and devotion that may arise out of humble places. 3. The wife of Pilate was true to the light which she had, a heathen twilight, if you will, and that was the condition of the fuller light of the Sun of Right- eousness. : 4, She kept an open mind, that is the secret of growth. And keeping an open mind she took her stand in defence of Jesus, "that just man." With, wealth and ambition -against Him; with the religious authorities of the day against 'Him; with in- fluential leaders -against Him; with her husband's interests and her own previous prejudices against Him; she casts in her lot with Jesus and identifies her self with the glorious minority. She is a great example of the "power of impotence." She failed but not because of any- thing in herself, but because of callous circumstances beyond her control. : As Judas represented the de- feat of Jesus, Pilate brings home to us the defeat of earthly friends who love us and inter- cede in behalf of our highest spiritual welfare. : How much of unrequited love, of unheeded and 'unappre- ciated goodnees there is in the earth. And we all have it in our power to reduce that colossal fact and to make goodness a more potent force in life. > o> There was a fine attendance at 'Sunday School last Sunday, there being 58 present. A very interesting talk on conditions as they exist in certain parts of India, was given by Wil Lyle, as special Missionary programme. Missionary collection amounted to $2.72. : The Women's Association held their February meeting at the home. of Mrs. T. E. Philip on Wedesday, Feb. 28.

Did you ever see a man who. did not uke pancakes? But they were not the only ones that night. Following the supper, a splendid one act play "Kidnapping Betty" was put on by the young people from Prospect, which created preciative audience.
