Many changes have taken place since then both in your Corps and in my life. but the Christ is unchange- able.

From Mrs. L. Ursaki, (nee Cup- taln Lulu Large) in joint charge of No. l Corps, Montreal.

‘Dear Commandant, Comrades and Frlends:—-lt affords me great pleasure to send a message oi‘ goodwill and best wishes to the dear old Home Corps on this the 88th Anniversary. ‘Alany are the happy memories oi‘ the "Little Corps by the lSea," that sacred spot where ll received Salvation and al- so conescrated my life to God for Service, lhsve never once regrett- ed that step and thank God for what I am and where 1 am today. Sixteen years have rolled by and many have been the changes; just u. few of the old comrades I soldier- ed with are still left and true to God and the Salvation Army. Scor- es have been taonverted and new faces have taken the place of the old ones. Thank God for a living Army that never (lies out. ‘I believe some of my Sunday School tallies ‘that ll taught ‘prior to leaving home are today Senior Soldiers. This fact rejoices my heart more than words can express.

May this 38th anniversary be rich in bbesings. TheLord bless thee and make lIiis face to shine upon thee, be generous unto thee. 111111 give thee continual victory and n harvest of souls, is my 80111051 111,14 sincere prayer.

It was twenty-four miles of close-knit conservation. during which all the pros and cons war-e well thrashed out; but the good minister lost out, to,- (gquyjc. 11°" 911111101- ‘118 easily quenched. ‘He must have thought J was st least a herd-shell, 1r not, a hard. shell Baptist, .

I had looked forward to a period of relief from responsibility when 1 111111911 111's Army. after ‘many years of activity in the ohm-ah 1 wanted to be just a soldier. But. I failed to know the Army, which is a. poor refuge‘ for drones, l tound 111111. while in church, music was my work. in the Army one was sup posed to speak a little, pray a 1n tie, preach a little, sing a little, and even dance a illttle. Few ol' you ever saw me dance at Charlotte- town, but Emmellne Worth and George Higgins and some others M iually saw me dance at the st, John Councils, and .1 admit to doing it very well. You see all l hm] m do was to watch how Ensign D. J. McRaQ and Ensign Alwlird and others of those worthlcs did it. l never could quite manage some of Emmellne's fancy steps, though,

lln due time it was my privilege to fill in here and there in the corps, bllt my special ‘bend then, as it is now, was toward the Juniors Biit there was at all limes splen- did veaun work with young iind old, and especially at Christmas, with 11111 101008. the programmes were to me a great pleasure. Then the Drill Girls were my particular pri- de, and the times w-e had together will never be forgotten. l trust they are ever remembered in like lDiLllIlGl‘ by the girls—l know they are, lfor one alter another of lhe girls writes to me every so often lo this effect; and they remind me of tho good impressions that were ulude, and that among them foun- dations were laid on which useful lives were lbuilded.

At Charlottetown also there came to me my inspirations for many Gospel Songs. which have been used in the Army. It still giv- es me a shock of gratitude lo have the band start iip “Shall You, Shall ‘l" to the words, "My lSoul is Now United.” d am still writing songs. and perhaps should publish more, but the calls for songs and chorus- es to fit special occasions absor-b much spare time, It may rbc oi‘ in- terest to know that last ‘Christmas at Calgary l put on some of the pieces we used at Charlottetown, nolaibiy the Double ‘Chorus, “Mer- rily Ring the Bells," with the chor- us of nearly one hundred voices;
