This book, like the two companion books previously offered on the meaning of prayer and the meaning of faith, is rapidly becoming recognized as one of the great devotional books of modern times. Sunday morning, January 30, a ser- vice, which promises to be a memor- tble one, will be held in Brown's lall. The sermon on the theme, ^'Caesar's Due and God's," will be de- livered by Emory W. Luccock, of [the graduating class of McCormick [Theological-seminary. Mr. Luccock [is the younger brother of Mrs. Stifler, tand rs the son of George N. Luccock, ~io was Tor fourteen years the pas- of the FirstPresbyterian church of Oak Park. The son is now serv ihg as the associate minister of that church, in charge of its young peo- ples' work.

The going of the Rev. C. A. Kelly to be pastor of the MethodisTchurcli at Wauke-^ gan, leaves a big hole in our official board. The going of Mrs. C. A.

AUGUSTINE'S PARISH In the Annual meeting of the Con- vention of the Episcopal church in the Diocese of Chicago, each Parish sends its rector and five lay delegates to make up the governing body. The Annual meeting -of-St. Augustine's -parish^held on January 12, to elect these delegates, passed a resolution recommending the admission of women as lay delegates to the Dio- cesan convention and elected two of the leading women workers of St. Augustine's along with three men as its Lay delegates. The women elect- ed -were Mrs. H. Hr^lkfussonT^pres- ident of the Associated Women's home of Mrs. Leslie Millar, 510 Washington avenue. Mrs. Worthen-|-Guil4s,^andMrfr-F.-Z»jMv^i^uperâ€" visor of the Primary Church Sunday schooi. Mrs. Musson was detained by illness in her family -from attending the convention' btit Mrs. Favor at- tended and on presenting her cre- dentials was accepted by the Cre- dentials committee and thus became a part of the convention, voting on all the legislation affecting the dioces One of the Chicago dailies comment- ing on this said; "For the first time in the history of the Chicago diocese, and probably for the first time in the history of the Episcopal church in America, a woman is attending the Episcopal Diocesan convention at the Cathedral of SS. Peter and Paul as a regularly accredited delegate." The question is to the fore in many dio- ceses but St. Augustine's seems to have led the way in giving a woman an official position in the official council of the church. The number of lay delegates at the Diocesan convention greatly exceed- ed the attendance at any previous convention and the interest shown in all the affairs of the church was ex- ceptional. Reports presented show- ed that the Episcopal church during the past year had made a great ad- vance all along the line, largely ow- ing to the_ success of the Nation- wide campaign.. A spirit of optim- ism pervades all the delegates and the outlook for the coming year's work in the diocese is exceedingly bright. The women of St. Augustine's are spending today, Friday, at the parish house in working for the different ob- jects of the Associated Guilds, the day's work beginning at 10:30 o'clock. There will be a public luncheon at St. Augustine's parish house today, Friday, at 12:15 o'clock, to which all are invited.

Under the auspices of the women of the Associated Guilds there will be a dance at the -Women's club on Thursday evening, February 3, at 8:30 P. M. Refreshments will be serv- ed and there will be a special or- chestra. Tickets are on sale by mem- bers of the guilds.
