received the new minister kindness, inquired whether the Methodists would fight for the King, and allowed him to preach m the Court House, where a large congregation of the most respect- able inhabitants listened to him. The rector who officiated in the morning in old St. Paul's, attended the Methodist services with his family in the evening, and his eldest son soon became a member of the class.

After a year's labor. Reverend Mr. Bulpitt in reporting to the Mssionary Committee wrote: "After much mature deliberation, some of the respectable inhabitants of this town have come to the de- termination to build a chapel for our use and a dwelling house for- the preacher." The Minister who followed Mr. Bulpitt wrote on August 1. 1816: “Since the erection of our chapel in Charlottetown, we have had a great accession of hear- crs, especially on Sabbath even- ings. It was supposed by many when we began to build that the plan was too expensive for the size oi the place but when it was‘ opened, such was the desire of the inhabitants to obtain pews that I am ‘convinced if we had built small- er we should have done wrong."

These extracts show how great- ly God blessed thg efforts oi His servants, how zealously and with what religious ferver our leaders of those early days labored, and what faith filled their souls as the result of their efforts. An excerpt from a letter written by Mr. Chap- pell reads: "For my own part we hope to labor, working with our hands. the thing that is right. for hitherto hath the Lord helped us

-and to read our Bible to good purpose till we rest from our lab- LIS."

The growth in membership and popularity continued until it be- came necessary to have more ex- tensive accommodation and equip- inent, and so the present Church

Radioactive Mineral Found In Australia

. ) By Leslie Brodie

Canadian Press Correspondent SYDNEY, Australia. Nov. 5 —— iCPl-A highlyxadioactlve miner- al has been discovered‘ in the Cen-

tral Australian desert at Hart's Range. about 40 miles northeast of Alice Springs, it was learned

today.

The mineral now is being inves- tigated by Federal Government geologists as its discovery is like.y to be of great importance to Aust- ralia, It is said to be more radio- active than metals found at the world's only two known major dd‘- posits—-Gieat Bear Lake in Can- ada's Northwest Territories and the Belgian Congo. '

‘Ilhe discoverer refuses to dis- close his identity until the Gov- crnment has ‘ ‘ ’ a 801161116 for rewarding prospectors who snake discoveries of national tm- portance.

The radioactive samples were submitted to experts by a North- ern Territory mica miner same months ago and analysis allowed a high degree of radioactivity.

The mineral is a black. resinous- looking substance like pitchblende and mining experts say it contains a large amount of uranium
