Note—

Notice of any additions to, or alteration of, the above dates should be sent to the Editor.

Appeal—

When the Fort William congregation bought their church property there was a house attached which they intended to put in repair for a missionary’s house, as Fort William, like other places, is handicapped by scarcity of houses and there is difficulty in getting lodgings. The congregation, with the help of friends, have cleared off a debt of £800 on their church building and they now appeal to the friends of the cause to give a helping hand to them in this new undertaking. The Southern Presbytery have sympathetically endorsed the above undertaking. Contributions will be thankfully received by Mr. Alex. Colquhoun, Mrs. Morison’s, Glennan, Fort William.

Synod Meeting—

The Synod of the Church will meet (D.V.) within the Hall of St. Jude’s Church, Glasgow, on Tuesday, the 20th day of May, at 6.30 p.m., when the Rev. D. A. Macfarlane, M.A., Dingwall, retiring Moderator, will preside.—E. R. S.

Mother’s Catechism—

This excellent booklet is now obtainable from the addresses given in our Magazine for February. The demand is encouraging, and all who desire copies should order early. They are worthy of wide distribution among children everywhere.
