Day of Prayer, Women the world over will gather to observe a dlay of prayer for a better world for all ' people. Never did Lhenworld. nation and governments stand so in need of prayer. What this worid needs is “Love ‘S-weel Love." the sweet love of God, and of Jes s ‘Chr‘lSll, God's son. Do the leaders of our country turn in God. in prayer with one voice for help to solve lheir's and ' our country's problems? In times like these we neccl a Saviour. In times like these we need to pray more. A memI-y of a World Day of Prayer our extra leap.year (lay. Feibnu y 29. 1952.

(Psalm 146:5.‘9, 10). On this day our prayers become a part of the great volume of pray- er that as in flood surrounds the Throne of Grace. and we plead with our Heavenly Father on beâ€" half of all sorts and conditions or men. We see about us “man's in- humanity to man," we realize the failure 01‘ even the best of human efferls: we turn with: living God. in whom alone there is Mal-p.

The country Church where that day of prayer was held. has been closed for ‘a number of yea-rs. 'Dhe W.M.S. and Missionary Monthly are no more, and most of the members of whom I was one. who met format sew-ice of prayer. have passed on to their re-wall'd.
