WINGHAM DISTRICT.

The Kitamaat missionary is the re-
presentative of the Wingham Distriet,
While in the East just before returning
he had the pleasure of visiting several
central points on that District and of
personally coming into toueh with the
Leaguers. He will not soon forget the
heartiness of his welcome, in spite of
stormy weather and drifted roads, It
was gratifying indeed to see the leagues
actively doing intelligent work for the
Master, on the PRAY, STUDY, GIVE,
plan. One thing most cheering, was in
Several places, to hear an expression of
this nature, “We have prayed for you
every day since you became our mis-
sionary.”

WELL DONE, CHINA HAT.

China Hat is an appointment of the
Bella Bella mission. For along time the
converts felt they needed a new eburch.
Under the able leadership of Mr. Edgar
missionary, one was built costing in ma-
terial $525, subseribed by the people; of
this amount, the women of the mission
gave $200 which they earned by serub-
bing «nd cleaning fish at the canneries
last summer. On the first Sunday of the
New Year, this neat solidly built echureh
(seating eipreity 150) was dedicated in
a delightful service, by Dr. Large the
superintendent of the mission.

Well done China Hat, your example is
worthy of imitation. {ft must be most
encouraging tothe Missionary Soeicty to
know how you are striving to help your-
selves.

THE MARTHAS.

The Marthas and other ladies of the
‘Sherbourne St. Methodist Chureli, Toronto,
presented Mr. Raley with atent and sail,
both are much appreciated. The outfit
of a missionary on the Coast is not eom-
plete without these adjuncts.
