In. looking baok over the year, the Rector said there were weaknesses to be marked, but there was also strensth and dens of growth. The weaknesses, he said, concerned

to deliver in the near future. Regarding the marks of strength anfd fggtures of growth, the Rector re err especially to four si .s. First. there has been an incrtiaﬂse in Worship by the congregation. Generally speaking, attendance at the Communion Service is a mark o! spiritual growth, because it signifies that ‘self’ ls giving place to a surrender to Jesus Christ and exaltation of Him. And mere has been an increase in the number of communicants during the last year -.'not indeed a large increase, but one which is cause for gratitude and encouragement. Secondly, the number of persons attending the weekly Bible study class on Wed- nesday evenings is increasing. The clam now numbers over 10o people.
