ST. JAMES CHURCH NEWS.

The Junior Auxiliary held their
first 1917 meeting with Mrs. j. r.
Brumby, Jr., on Monday at $50
O'Clock. Nearly all the members
were present and one visitor. The
meeting was opened with prayer
and Junior collect in concert.
A very interesting letter was
read from Miss Inez Sprinkle, editor
of the Junior Annual. She wants
all members to write missionary
stories, essays and poems for the
Annual and also send in drawings
to be used as corner designs and
frontispiece Some of our St.
James Junior have already begun
work on theirs.
Miss Louise Kerley and Miss Ell
len Cambos had their stories ac-
cepted and printed in the Annual
last year, and we hope to have our
branch as we'll represented this
year
Mrs Brumby gave each one pres
ent a card bearing the name OF
our missionary bishops. From this
name the girls are to make a puzzle
and return them at the next meet
ing, when they will be exchanged
and a guessing contest held to see
/ Who is most familiar with the
names ana territory Of eacn bishop.

instruction in Sunday School work
was given. -
The Rector attended meetings of

this week.
The banner in The school was a.

needed to act as substitute teacher
and to prepare the lesson each week
in case of need. He will be called
upon nearly every week.
The Union Service last Sunday
night was all that could be desired.
About 500 attended it is estimated.
/ Every obtainable seat was brought
in, many stood throughout the ser

May the New Year, as it I'M
folds in beauty and strength, de-
velop all that is best within you,
and may you be a blessing to all
with whom you come ia touch, re-
membering that no joy is so great
as that of service, and this joy is
my wish for you"
IT'S EFFECT.
At the close of the heartfelt and
heart-touching message from our
beloved President, such an air of
serious thoughtfulness, earnest de-
sire, and spiritual uplift pervaded
the room, that pledge was asked
of each woman present that she
commit herself to this appeal for
truer living, higher ideals, more
earnest endeavor ana loving unset
fish service in the Masters cause.
So tender, wise and deep-reach-
ing had been this appeal, not for
her sake, but for the Saviour's, that
those present rose as one woman to
respond, pledging their best to
Him who gave His best, that the
nations of the earth might be re-
deemed and live.

OUR PRESIDENTS MESSAGE"

After the Woman's Missionary
Society of the NJ. (. Church, which
met on Tuesday, January End, for
it's first meeting of the New Year,
1917, had transacted it's usual bust
ness, the President, Mrs. NJ. R. Ly-
on, delivered her message for the
incoming year.
So deep was the feeling, and so
earnest the appeal of the reader,
that a responsive chord was touch
ed in the hearts of the women pres
ent, and desire that each absent
member might receive this message
was expressed, so resolution was
offered and carried that it be pub
lished in the secular press, and is
as follows:
THE MESSAGE
The New Year brings us new
opportunities, we can all look back
through the past year and see OPP
portunities that had they been i'm
proved, would have glorified Our
Father" frightened somebody's
path, and made our own lives bet
ter
Many Of us, | fear, are letting
the small things go by undone, be-
cause we are waiting to do big
things, forgetting that life is made
up of little things
ooh! let us do the little things;
we know not what one little act of
kindness TO siJme poor despairing
soul will mean in results.
Opportunities were never so
great, the demand for workers in
the Masters Vineyard never so pres
sing as now.
God has work for each one Of
us to do, let us not shirk it, no enc
else can do what was intended for
us.
I'VE may be so poor that our own
wants ARE hard to meet, yet we

pathy, and an encouraging smile,
which may infuse new life into some
poor despairing heart, ready to
faint under life's heavy burdens.
Are we not commanded to bear
each others burdens, and so fulfill
the law of Christ?
owe must work TODAY, for
aught we know it may be our only
opportunity. My prayer for eacn
one of us is, that in this year-1917
We may by Gods grace do with
our neighbor what our hands find
to do"
And let us give Him our best,
remembering that it was the first
fruits that were. required before
Christ came;/ shall we who are so
richly blessed do less? No, we will
give Him ourselves, without any
reservations, and then, the best will
follow, and when the roll is called
up yonder', may many come to us
and say: Through your influence
and Cody life l was brought to
| Christ"
Il am so glad We can have a part
in bringing lost ones to Jesus, not
! only here in this Christian land. but
in the whole world; don't you
hear them calling come over and
help US?

The Value Of Potatoes.

Washington, Aug. 20.-"There is no
food which exactly takes the place OF
the potato when one Is accustomed
TO 1t. says a statement issued by the
United States department of agri-
culture, urging an increased con-
sumption Of this vegetable now that
the markets OF the country are well
supplied. 1T has come to be such q
part of our dinner that we miss ii
when IL is not served Besides. any
leftover potato can be used in many
very palatable ways for breakfast or
supper, and this Is a convenience
from the housekeeper's standpoint,
since 1t helps her to make palatabie
meals. Not only Is it useful from the
ease with which 1t can be prepared
and the number Of palatable ways in
which II can be served, but 1t is very
important for the food material IL
supplies. 1t is one OF the most
wholesome sources of starch and is
also fairly rich In the mineral mat
ter which the body needs. CT the min
eral salts one must not overlook
the importance Of the mild alkaline
salts IL contains, because these are
greatly needed by the body to coun-
terl1alanGe the acid salts which
meats and eggs produce when assini-
lated. In this we have a justification
Of the use Of potatoes In the diet in
liberal quantities and OF our common
custom OF serving them with meats.
When the price permits. potatoes
should, BY all means be made q part
OF the diet"
