The machinery for spinning cotton-yarn will be in working order in about twenty days in Canton. Visitors from Hongkong should go and have a look at it. The superintendent says that the quantity of yarn spun will be at the rate of 800 Ib. for every 24 hours. There can be no doubt that Mr. Vrooman is going to work the right way, it is the introduction and use of Such mechanical appliances that will tend to enlighten the mind of the Celesti unselfish love and service of all men for Christ's sake, May God grant that all teachers may strive to keep the Holy Child and His growth in Wisdom in mind thatsothey may be able to help these children of God to develop their God-given talents to be used in the service of God. May God grant that all parents may receive God's children, entrusted to them, to be brought up in the nature and admonition of the Lord, that from their earliest years these children will love and worship God and use their lives in His service, for ever thanking God for their parents' teaching and example, And most of all, dear children, boys and girls, big and little, may God help you that you may use aright these precious years in school, that you may follow in the steps of our dear Lord and increase "in wisdom and stature and in favour with God and man." May you learn to know and love God that whenever and to whatever He calls you you will be ready, that you may so develop and use the talents that He entrusts to you that He shall call you "good and faithful" servants, and so go out and live your lives in the world in unselfish service of our Lord Jesus and His brethren, that He will say to you "Come ye blessed....inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the World."

'O Lord who never failest to help and govern them whom Thou dost bring up in Thy steadfast fear and love. Keep us, we beseech Thee. under the protection of Thy good providence and make us to have a perpetual fear and love of Thy Holy Name, through Jesus Christ Our Lord. Ame:
