Sufficient to cover return postage should accompany the records.

Collection for April.—The Collection (first) for the Home Mission Fund (Missionaries and Catechists) is to be taken up this month.

Day of Humiliation and Prayer.—As intimated in our last issue the Presbyteries have decided that a Day of Humiliation and Prayer be observed throughout the Church on the 8th or 9th day of April (whichever day is most suitable to the congregations) in reference to the low state of religion in the land in general and the troubles in our own Church at the present time in particular.
