Shipping and wharf installa-
tons at Rabaul on New Britain
were devastated over large
area.

laria or starved to death.

Presbyterians Destroy
Mortgage at Specidt Rites

A smorgasboard dinner opened the
22nd annual rally Of the Presbyterian
church last Thursday.
Ed c. Jones, program committee
chairman, was unavoidably absent, ana
the Rev. H. Russell Browne acted as
chairman. A brief history Of the er-
ection Of the church for some $1,000
less than the contract price OF $4,000
and the work OF securing the money
was given by the chairman, who said
that the remaining mortgage had been
settled and would be burned. This
ceremony was prefaced by the darken-
ing of the room, by the lighting OF the
red, blue and green candles, described
by the Rev. Mr.. Browne as the red
standing for courage and sacrifice,
the blue for loyalty and devotion, .
and the green for light, permanence
and hope" Another lighted candle
represented the congregation and an
other the incendiary for the mortgage.
Following the ceremony the con-
gregation sang Praise God from
Whom all Blessing Flow" and the
lights were turned back on. With Mrs.
E. W. Hanson at the piano and B. o.
Strachan directing, songs were sung.
Jas. I. Laing spoke on benalf of the
trustees.
The Rev. Marshall Olson, Eyeleth,
here for the occasion with Mrs. Olson
and their daughter, made the pr1nci-
pal talk in which he complimented the
congregation on its beautiful church
and the excellent work in getting the
edifice paid for. The Rev. Mr.. Browne
has been pastor and instrumental in
the erection of the building for the
past II years.
