It is planned to hold a Festival of Days sometime in December, with the idea of making money towards paying off the: auxiliary’s debt to the new as- sociation building fund, Mrs. Charles J. Twist to have general charge of the af- fair, naming her' own committees. All business being concluded, the aux- iliary next had the pleasure of listenfng ta a delightful talk on the South Sea Is- lands, givem by Mrs. R. D. Rhone, whe spent several years on the Island of Nauru, in the Pacific ocean. Mrs. Rhone laid much. stress on the infiwence for good or ill, of the white races, who have come from time to time to thess beanti- ful coral isles, which were settled in vortions by the Dutch, English, French and Spanish—with Germany making her wedge in 1833. ‘The missionaries and friendly white folk have often had- to pay their lives in reprisal for the white traders’ wickedness, for the natives find it hard to discriminate a friend from a foe. Under German rule the iglanders Wwere taught to make copra which is one of their in¢iple industries. The story of phosphate, treated to become a fer- tilizer was interesting; the export of guana forms an isldmd industry, alse. Just who these Istanders are, as & race, has never been emtirely decided; their ethnology is still a puzsle. They abound in legends of evil spirits ana are firm believers in ghosts. Protest- ants, Cathelies and Mormons hawe all started missions among these people, end many néw ways have beeén intre- duced among them; the history of the South Sea Islands cannot be. adeguately written without taking into account the efforts of the missionaries. After the conclusion ef Mrs.. Rhone's interesting talk, tea was served by Mrs. Lester, assisted by various members of the auxiliary, and a social half hour followed. This winter finds the auxiliary with 344 members, and an effort is being made to raise the mmmber to 500.
