About one hundred and twenty-five guests were received by Mrs. Kelley, Mrs. Ken nedy and Mrs. Rudd, members of the reception committee, and when all had assembled some real old-fashioned community singing, led by Mir. Tom Rees, put everybody on friendly, cheery basis. Then followed old-fash- toned English singing games, partici- pated in by everyone present, 1t seemed, and for a few hours best of fellowship prevailed. After the games light refreshments were served by the young girls of the congregation under the supervision of Mrs. H. G. Ehlers. Quite few new members were re- ceived into the church during the month and these were given well come that evening.
