the members and the refreshments
which were served later in the eve

More than one hundred of bis
friends and well wishiers were gather-
ed together in the Buuday school room
when Rev, Jones was called by tele-
phone to come tothe church. When he
asked what was wanted he was told
that members of his consistory were at
the church and that they wished to
gee him. His eurprise, as he entered
the well filled room, can be imsgived
bot not described. The entire audi

in social pleasure, in congratulation
to him for the love and reverence ip
which Le is held by all the members
of the congregation and to warm them-
selves in the sunebine of each other's
friendship. The minister respondeo
feelingly and joycusly. He thankeo
them for this expresgion of their af
fection and esteem and expressed the
wish that he might be able to cele-
brale many more such birthday anni
versaries. The entire audience then
joined in singing the hymn ** Blest be
the tie that binds our hearts in Chris
tian love.” Approprisie addresses
were also made by Prof. C. R, Neff and
Dr. G. W, Hosterman., An elaborate
