mteresting experiences of work in the mlsison field in India. were

related to the boys of the Crescent Club of the Y. M. C. A. at their regular monthly supper on Saturday night, by Rev. c. F, Grant, who is Maritime Secretary of the S. C. 1V1.

'I‘he speaker told that he was the

only Christian minister in a native state approximately the size of Prince Edward Island, and was at first met with suspicion and an. tlsonism by the Maharaiah, who

was opposed. to the wprk of mission-

aries in his province. He explained how the attitude of the native ruler had been changed to one of friend- liness when the "padre", as Mr, Grant was called by the natives. de- footed a number of the Maharaiahk men in a sports competition.

Mr. Grant related how a. club had

been formed among the boys of the district and how the fine sports- manship displayed by these boys had the effect of raising the prest- ige of the Christian community in the eyes of the native town.

The speaker described several of

the native boys of the community; in particular. one who had been changed, from a thief and outcast, to an honest and trusted boy lhrwzn a Christin-n appeal on the part of the missionary.

Prof. W. J. Duchemin. of Prince

of Wales College, was also guest of the club at their supper, which was presided over by Mr, Roy Hennes- sey. President of the Society.

English at St. Dunstanb College, before a large assemblage of people Wednesday evening. Febmary 13th,

Briefly tracing its development

from the time of Plato to the pres- ent day. the speaker showed how literature-June humanization of h the whole world"—bas preserved to the race the ideals upon which all our civilization is founded and as a consequence is one of the most important mid delightful subjects that can occup the human mind. The works of Shakespeare, Milton, Samuel Johnson, Dickens and Car- lyle were recommended to us as masterpieces which have preserved those ideals which have been hand- ed down from fathers to sons. while men. cities, governments and civil- izations have vanished from the face of the earth. with regard to

modern dav writings, the speaker

cautioned us to be prudent in our selection. as much that comes from the press today is written by men who have been given ovei- wholly to maicrialism and are therefore in- capable of literary greatness.

At the conclusion of the lecture

Rev. l’. R. A. MacDonald, on behalf of the Catholic Women's league, under whose auspices the lecture was held, moved s. vote of thanks which was supported by luv. Leon- by ard MacDonald and presented to the speaker by His Worship Mayor MacPhee, presiding. ,
