in the early hours, that is. For
Dorothy’s bus was to leave Wilkes-
'| Barre at 8 and we had to be up.
Catherine was to go with her to see
her off at Idlewild. I took Cathy to
vote at seven while Dorothy took
her mother to the bus depot to pick
up the reservations. After voting,
Cathy went with me to join Dorothy
and her mother in Wilkes-Barre.
To my surprise there was a crowd
around Dottie. Rev. Leon Bouton,
our District Superintendent, was on
hand with his camera. Mrs. Bouton
was among the women who turned
out to be the Wilkes-Barre district
executive committee of the W.S.C.S.
They were, Mrs. B. Everett Lord,
president, Mrs. Edgar Sutton, Mrs.
Percy Berninger, Mrs. Willard Mer-
riman, Miss Florence Austin, Mrs.
Carl Hontz, Miss Pearl Averett, Mrs.
Louise James. The ladies gave
‘Dorothy a chrysantheum corsage
and wished her bon voyage. Dr.
Bouton took several pictures. Mr.
Frank Martz was also on hand and
wished her a pleasant journey.
From New York Catherine phoned
us that some relatives and friends
were there also ‘to give Dorothy a
good send-off. The jet plane took
off from Idlewild at seven in the
evening and was expected to be in
| Africa by seven the next evening.
| By ‘this time everybody knows
that Dorothy is a missionary nurse-
midwife working under the
Woman’s Division of Christian Serv-
ice of the Methodist Church under
assignment to work in the Republic
of Congo. Her work this year will
be teaching nursing and Public
Health in the school at Kimpese
near Leopoldville.
We here at home were pleased
Sunday night when Dorothy called
up a former African student of hers
who is in this country now studying
at the Allen High School in Ash-
ville, North Carolina. She knew no
English when she arrived and has
! been homesick and lonesome for
some time while trying to get ac-
dion
Last Tuesday was a big day. Just
customed to American ways. When
Dorothy got her on the phéne the
girl was quite delighted to hear her
own native tongue from this mis-
sionary friend. To us it was a de-
light to listen to Dorothy talking
away in the Otetela tongue which is
so musical that one hardly knows if
the words are being sung. or just
spoken. |We sensed how eager
Dorothy was to get back to those
whom she calls “her people”. As
she wrote in closing a letter to
some of her friends recently: “No,
I am not afraid.”
Our friends the Rev. and Mrs.
Ralph Weatherly spent 12 days with
their son Rev. Theodore Weatherly
and family’ in Homestead, a suburb
of Pittsburgh. He held a number
of services for his son and had a
thoroughly good time. They came
home to vote.
We went over to Dymond Hollow
to supper the other night. Those
people are so friendly that it is a
pleasure to be among them. The
pastor, Rev. Watson, has a deep,
musical speaking voice to go along
with his friendly ways. We met Mrs.
Howard Willetts, widow of my for-
mer colleague in the conference.
Irene and her son Fred and wife we
met, too. - Fred's wife was from Dy-
mond Hollow. And Mildred Bell
Eyett I hadn’t seen for years. Rus-
sell Eyett to whom TI married her
was from Dymond Hollow, now
lives in East Dallas near the Martz
farm. It was a pleasure to meet
them. Mrs. Dan Dymond was busy
around the kitchen; Mrs. Daven-
port whom we knew years ago
when she was a district officer in
W.S.C.S. was in the bazaar booth.
And others from around the coun-
try. Incidentally the supper was
very good too. :
Our pastor, Rev. Reid, returned
last Friday from taking part in the
preaching mission in Langhorne
near Philadelphia. The services were
similar to those held in many cen-
ters in our Conference during the
same period. \

Mr. Reid's sermon Sunday was
especially good. He began by quot-
ing from Eugene O'Neil: “Man is
born into the world broken; he sur-
vives only by being mended, and
the grace of God is the glue.” The
Bible carries out this theme of the
grace of God by which men live.
Soon after Ruth and I were in
our seat Sunday Audrey Earl whis-
pered to Ruth: “Congratulations!”
Ruth asked, “What about,” Then
Audrey pointed to the note in the
church bulletin: “At Mt. Zion the
flowers are presented by Miss Cathe-
rine Gilbert in honor of Rev. and
Mrs. Charles Gilbert's 45th wedding
anniversary’ . (Which is Nov. 14)
Ruth and I were deeply moved by
Catherine’s thoughtfulness in sur-
prising us.
Catherine, though not a profes-
sional organist, played for ‘the
church service last Sunday and for
her | junior choir’s anthem which
the boys and girls sang beautifully.
Sandy Saunders, our regular organ-
ist, has been having trouble from
internal hemorrhaging of blood ves-
sels in her hands. Nothing shows
outwardly but she has considerable
pain. We hope for her speedy re-
covery.
