And over 11,000,000 volumes of the Seriptures are sold or distributed amually by this society. The - B. *. B.S. should never be counted as an organization separate from the work of the Christian Church. | It is in truth, an integral part of the whole Church of God in the world. The whole Church depends almost entirely upon this society for the Seriptures in the native tongues of all peoples. The Society does not confine itself to one communion, but stands a handmaid and help for all. It is but a bare statement of facts to assert that without the circula- tion of the Scriptures amongst com- batants and non-combatants, there can be no return to the principles of Christian civilization.

Thé bride and groom entered: the living room to the tung of the wed- ding march, the former looking most charming in her wedding gown of blue sheer, Mr. Angus MacGregor very ably acted as master of ceremonies and spoke a few words of advice to the groom, after which community singing got everyone in a jovial mood, and the presentation was made by little Audrey Skerratt wheeling in a beautifully decorated wheelbarrow loaded with gifts. The groom re- sponded with a few well chosen words --but we do nét know whether the warm evening or nervousness caused the great beads of perspiration on Leslie's brow, The bride also thanked her friends and asked them "to come and see us sometime, but do not all come at once." Lunch was then served by chums of the bride assisted by Mrs. L. Bond, supervising the cof- fee. After another sing-song led by Merle Hope, the cars gradually pulled away into the storm in the early hours of the morning. " W. M. S.
