Though great effort was made, and some gave liberally, the missionary offerings only reached about £75 out of £95 quota. The offerings on Whitsunday were £19 4s. The Guild is making great preparations for the Spring Flower Show and Sale of Work on Tuesday, September 10th. Mr. P. F. Hunter has promised to come and judge the flowers.

Eadie, on "Home Nursing," all of which were most interesting, and the thanks of the Union are offered to them. On June 23rd the Bishop paid his annual visit to the parish and confirmed 16 candidates.
