At the outset the retiring presi- dent, the Rev. E. H. Bean of Ken- slngton. reminded the members of the mine disaster In Spring- hill which for some has ended in joy and for others sorrow. At this point he called for prayer to be offered, first, of thanksgiving for those whose lives have been sav- ed. and second, for the comfort of God for those who have suffer- ed tha loss of their loved ones. Af- ter the prayer. it was moved and carried that two letters be sent. one to the Mayor of Springhili expressing concern for the bereav- ad and another to the Sprlnghill Ministerial Association.

The speaker was Flt. Lt. Har- sld Cox, the P. testant Padre at Greenwood. N.S., who has been intimately connected with the work of the Alcoholics Annonymous Group. Out of the wealth of his experience Padre Cox gave a viv- id picture of the problems of the
