Mr. (linton Goforth who has recently returned from France gave a short but very enjoyable talk. T hen refreshments were served. ( Below is the poem composed by Mrs. Wood: A church, unshepherded, sought far and wide A leader who should be to them a guide To higher planes where richer truths are found, Where joy and peace and faith and love abound. They would be led to sweeter, simpler living, To truer service, more unselfish giving; To visions of a world’s great, crying needs, Clear calls from Heav’n to strong, he roic deeds; To gratitude for all God’s daily care, For food and raiment, and for friend ships rare; For sunshine bright, for happy songs of birds; For bounteous harvests anil contented herds; For fragrant breath of countless glow ing flowers; For shades of night, for sweet, refresh ing showers; For happy children shouting at their play; For worthy tasks to fill each passing day; For health and rest, for strength to do their part; For living faith in God’s great, loving heart. Aye, for all blessings, whether great or small, To thank the loving Father for them all. To find a man who’d be a worthy guide, The search was prosecuted far and wide. Through north and south, through east and breezy west, They looked to find the very best. And then he came, like magnet to the pole, And promptly into their affections stole. A case it was of love at sight, you see, Nor would the flock to part with him agree. He must remain—he must accept their call— He must become their pastor, that was all! And so he did. And all the church rejoice To own him leader whom they made their choice. They love him well. They have but one regret— He’s brought, with him no Mrs. Moss ns yet! No Mrs. Preacher! What were they to •lot They didn't know—it was a problem new. The complications rising quite dismayed The Elders, Deacons, and the Ladies’ Aid! Rut bravely faced, they’re settled now and past. This afternoon they solve the very lust. They had to “shower” the preacher, nothing less Would prove the welcome that they must exj>*#ss Since pantry stores would scarce to him appeal, fWhnt’or the coning days may yet fdleaf,) The f.rtdies’ Aid heve soiught a gift to find That e'en-a bachelor's benighted mind Would find acceptable. They trust that he Will In' this gift their loyal welcome see; • That an ho rests withjn its ample arms All weariness and cares and dread alarms Will pass away, and burdens be forgot And gentle peace will soothe his lonely lot. For years to come may he refreshment find In its embrace for body, soul, and mind; And may the God he serves His blessing send, That church and pastor, close as friend to friend, Through many years may labor, love and pray, Their felloship grow sweeter all the way, As together faithful service bring In loyal tribute to the Heavenly King. —N.
