The Woman's Missionary Society
met again with Mrs. Henry this month,
the evening of Tuesday, the eth, and,
as usual, that lady proved a charming
hostess.
The little business Of the meeting
was rapidly disposed Of. that there
might be plenty OF time to devote to
the book on David Livingstone, the
study Of whose life the Society is now
taking up. Mrs. Henry, Mrs. Robert
Brown and Miss Ethel Rhodes, Rho
were in charge of the program, proved
equal TO the occasion, each in turn
delighting the audience with sketches
from the biography of that missionary
hero and discoverer, and explaining in
a most entertaining manner the views
used TO illustrate the incidents re-
lated.
The first yice-president is still en-
thused over the organization of a Ju-
nior Society and as soon as Mrs. Har-
per, the Conference first vice, ssn come
over for that purpose, the Juniors will
be organized.
The building fund is slowly (but let
US hope surely creeping up to the
coveted one hundred mark.
Every lady in the church should be
a member of the Missionary Society.

OF birds build their nests and rear their
young. Most of the nests hold two
eggs. some only one. The incubation
of these is delayed 50 long that before
they are hatched the water has dried
up. leaving the nests as mounds OF
mud and fiber along the edge OF the
lake. On the top Of the nest the parent
sits. with her long legs doubled up and
projecting behind her for some dis

has a greeniSh blue shell, is protected
by an outer thick. chalky coat, which
can be removed.

pioneer Builders,

A family began one day you'd think it
quite tax
To build themselves a house without 4
hammer saw or ak
And not a square or plane had they. and
yet they did not fail
To build the house as they had planned
without a screw or nail.
They went 10 work with right good will,
and when a tree they found
That they could use in builfing they fell
ed il 10 the ground
And sawed it up in just the lCngths they
needed for the work,
Then put each piece together, and no one
thought 20 shirk.
And so they built their house complete,
above and underneath.
And all the tools they had 70 use were
only just their teeth,
The beavers built their houses thus In
pioneer days
And with the new inventions" have new
er changed their ways
