METHODIST NOTES.

The prayer meeting of last Thurs
day night was rendered especially in
teresting by the impromptu talks of
Miss Ethel Rhodes, Mr.. Gibson, DR..
Bell, and Mrs. Gibson.
The topic for tonight is THE Rela-
ton of Prayer to Missions" The pro-
gram is as follows:
/. The Conditions of Prevailing
Prayer-by r. NJ. Brown 6 minutes).
2. The Place of Prayer in the Life
of John G. Paton-Mrs. ]. NJ. Henry 6
minutes).
8. The Place of Prayer in Mission
airy Enterprise-H. H. Gibson 6 min
utes).

The missionary program at Sunday
school was good. Ten dollars was col
lected. Misses Miriam Gibson, Grace
Lennox and Thelma Cayard rendered
missionary SelectlOuS.
The beautiful new missionary ban
ner was won by Mr.. Gibson's class of
girls. We are indebted to Miss Luella
Dunn for the banner. The attendance
at Sunday school is most gratifying.
1t is quite the fashion to go to Sunday
school. You Observation-Disclosures
take notice!
We wish the young people would
come out to the League next Sunday
at GAS p. m.
| Brother Thomas sermon Sunday II
IL a. m. was from the words, 1--WE
would see Jesus" and was one of the
best We have heard in long time.
The congregation at the night ser
vice was large. We hope this will
continue so.
After the sermon Brother Hennins
made a very touching talk on the lif,
and character of our late brother
Francois Daniels. He then read thu
following resolutions:
Algiers Methodist Episcopal Church
South.
March End, 1913.
Whereas, it has pleased Almight,
God to take from our midst that gentl
and princely man, Francis A. Daniels
one of the oldest and most devote'
members of this church, observant a
, all times to the cause of Christianity
sensible to a degree to the obligation
to it, and always endeavoring to III
hold the principles of Methodism b
thought, word and deed. Ever read
! to advance to our growing youth
fruitful advice and caution as guit
ance through life. A devoted hui
band, lenient father, whose Christia
. life has been an example for thos
that God has placed under his car
and protection, as followers Of h
faith and who stand to-day to hone
and credit him. A man whose privat
life was of the highest order, gent
and kind, that endeared him to a
who knew him. Faithful at all time
in the recognition of his duty that hs
been as a strong influence and stan
/, ard to all. His constant attendant
to his beloved church, his devote
prayers that have impressed all WI
have heard him of his sincerity an
earnestness that live in the memol
!" of this congregation; and
Whereas, the membership of tn
church has suffered a loss of trl
and energetic member, whose years
service will be keenly felt, and trus
" that the knowledge that his long, us
@ full and devoted Christian life, whit
q was prolonged to the allotted time
