H, Millar. and the presentation of the presanhfby D, T. Fraser, Mr. andl Mrs. Howard made _a feeling reply, thanking thdir many friends for re- membering them at this time and as- suring them that the old` friends would DJWBYS have a large place in their hearts, and recounting the Christian fellowship enjoyed' with the members not only of their own church, .but of the neighboring churches. Short addresses were also made by D. T. Fraser, Hey. H. Mil. lar, H. Macmillan, all expressive of the loss to the community of Mi-_ Howard and his family, as Mr. How- ard took a deep interest in the ailairn of tho community in which he lived. The singing of God be With You Till 'We__)daet Again ended the program. Before departing the visitors were kindly entertained with cake and cof- fee by Mrs. Frank Howard. Our hearts do follow them and theirs For Hea.ven's best gifts they have our prayers. Following is the nddress:-- Wlliiam J. and Mrs. Howardr Dear Friends:--Having learned of your intended removal with your family to the land of the “Stare and Stripes." in behalf’ of your many friends of the surrounding communi- ties we have met here this evening to bid you farewell and wish you God- speed. _ You have been so long associated with us ln the social circle and espo- cially in church work that your dc- parturc will create a blank, which we fear will not soon be filled. Your as- sociations in these relations have al- ways been of the most pleasant chur- actor. We have ever found you ready to second every effort put forth to and to the efficiency of church and state, you have, without remuneration, giv- en your time and talent to the ever occurring demallds oi the surrounding communities. ' We shall greatly miss you and your talented family but bp assured that wherever your lot may be cast you will have the best wishes of former associates, and we trust that when far from us you will carry with you social and pleasant lnenlcries of thc time spent in association with us, und now as a slight token of our esteem of the valuable service qi you and your estimable wife, we present you with this gold watch and chain and to Mrs. Howard this diamond brooch, which we trust will remind yOu, Whtn fB1` away, of "Old Lang Sync."

God stooped to lllcu because he loved them, and the Incarnation, and the privation, and suffering, and death, which it implied were counted a joy and uncertaiuly, we may be sure that the trouble lies in this, that men are trying to do Cllrist's work without Christ's'spil'it. It is that alone that has dynamic enough in it for the task of world-regeneration.
