There will be a special musical serv-
ice in the cathedral on Sunday even
ing at 7:3O. The choir for some weeks
has had this service in preparation.

at that time cannot fail to be soul-in
spring. The offering received at this
service will be expended in work
among the choir boys.
The dinner given by the second
branch of the auxiliary on Tuesday
evening last proved great success
in every way. Every effort was put
forth to make it thoroughly appetite
ing and enjoyable. irrespective Of what
might be realized from it in the way
Of profits. The spirit and enthusiasm
with which the members worked is
cemmendable to q high degree. The
president. Mrs. Carl Dirks. has re-
quested that the thanks Of herself and
the whole auxiliary be extended to all
those members Of tn congregation who
20 generously assisted by their con-
cess.

A quarterly statement has been sent
out by the finance committee this week
to all our envelope subscribers, so that
they may know how their account
stands on the finance treasurer's
books. II every subscriber would try
to meet their church obligations
promptly, the committee would have
no anxiety as to paying the monthly
bills. The fact that this year the
church has made fine payment on
itse debt, and is receiving no assist
ance from the two branches Of the
auxiliary their funds being reserved
for large payment on the Easter
debit, makes 1t more necessary than
ever for every member to pay sub
scriptions promptly.
The small room In the futile house

Cd with a fine new stove. This will
enable us to heat this room in a very
few minutes, thus making 1t useful for
many special meetings at short notice
