make us feel free and easy at one
of these informal gatherings.

to Rev. R. E. Moss in the begin
ning of his pastorate here. Mr.
W. 0. Perry as toastmaster intro
duced a number of lay members,
who made appropriate talks for
this pleasant evening. After all
had spoken Rev. R. E. Moss feel
ingly and 'eloquently expressed
his deep and sincere appreciation
for the kindness and words of
welcome by the ministers and of
others who spoke and the unsel
fish efforts of the ladies for mak
ing it one of the most pleasant
jnemories of the years to come.
