We all-with a degree of pride are proud to call our- selves citizens of the - Great British Commonwealth. whose privilege it is to enjoy the mutual respect and equal- ity of all in all phases of national life. During your sojourn with us you have_ given yourself most unsparingly to_all 5 objects which tend to the upbuilding g of a strong and vigorous type of citiz- enship, a citizenship which must first begin within the individual then in the sphere of local `or community life, and from there. to the greater sphere of na- tional life `and usefulness. But` our greatet, our sincerest, and our heart- felt desire this evening is to express to` you. our appreciation of your- life`. and services in our midst in the. high end -exalted" office of the Christian .ministry. In these days , of boasted citizens p, our. time is more largely concerne ` "with `commercialism ` and `. materialism. We, too, often\ neglect to ponder up9_n the exalted greatness` the importance. the responsibility of ' the office and high calling of the min- istry. Let us each in this gshering this ` evening, ponder for a moment on this n question: the office of the ministry. Whence are they called. but from the ranks of a ommon humanity? Olfi` . great Creator has so ordered it in the 3 fulfilment of His great purpose and 5 will toward us. .In the work of the s|\Christian ministry to which you have - n consecrated {and devoted your life and 5` energyyand in the wise Providence ex and counse_l- of God you_were sent to our midst some three years ago ._to" y witnes in life (which is but the com- d mon` duty of every Christian person) - ,,- and also to declare from the sacred Lt desk the imperishable and incontro- rr tr vertible word of truth. This assembl- , r age this evening (as well as many who 3;, for various reasons have been detain- ed) irrespective of denomination, blass or creed and whose privilege and plea- sure it has been for three years to ,. listen to and live with you have receiv- , ed a living; and lasting impression in L- their lives of the fire of inspiration, the `earnestness and zeal and that bold- y ness which is born only -`of the spirit 0 of truth, which together, have char-, |- acterized your life amongst us and ya also your proclamations from the pul- It pit.

"Wlw can't you stop grumbling, Kitty Bray?" ` B - ` That was unjust,` for ~Kttty never grumbled; it was only her passionate round her` that stirred her once in a while to gentle rebellion. The other two boys. Nat and Thomas. laughed at her, too; Thomas was/ somewhat only mischievous.

Kitty wants to rig up the rooms, you knowl ` ~- , But as they all knew well, Kitty wanted nothing fine or expensive; -all she wanted they could `easily afford. However. as the months went by, lip `became plainer and plainer` that th big. old house was to remain as forlorn ' as it had been through the generation lsehind it. And at last her longing took the form of a special desire; she want-` ( ed. she would haveya guest chamber! since her uncle and cousins were con- tent with bare floors. and stark walls, she-would try to be, too; but at least 1 one single spot in the house should be easy and fair+--a spare room; a guest rchamber set apart._ ~ ~ i It did not daunt her to remember ` that guests at the Bray farm were `as 1 rare as robins in January. At long in- : tervals they did drop ,in: sometimes, - "a wayfarer, asking for shelter for the i night; sometimes a cattle dealer. who was stopping over on business; or the country doctor, storm bound in winter. Once a boyhood fvlend of Uncle Wil liam's had come unexpectedly, and he had to sleep in Nat's ramshackle single bed in the dingy room over the hall. Again. Mrs. Herndon, the pretty little lady from the `adjoining'f6._rm, had been caught overnight in a f-irece thunder- storm. and all Kitty's pleasure in pre- y paring the dainty supper had been shadowed by the thought oi!~ the little shabby room in which her guest woul A have to spend the night. But most sh minded the ministe -'--a gentle old man` who came `down four times` a year` for services at I-Iebron Church. and who always stayed at the Bray farm. He seemed older and feebler each time he] came. and over and over again Kitty taught herself thinking of the Shun- ammite woman in the Bible who,kept Rho prophet's chamber" ready for the weary pilgrim. - \ ` ` _Tnnl- nnn ulna-In vnnm " aha unit! in U 5c 0::-n every.
