The King's speech read by His Opening of Majesty on Monday, February 19th Parliament- is a document of the highest promise laid before the country during the last 25 years. Seven days prior to this speech,, the General Committee of the National Coun¬ cil of the Evangelical Free Churches, under the presidency of Rev. Dr. R. F.

Rail¬ ways in England and Wales yielded the investor ^400,000 more in dividend in 1905 than in 1904. We fervently trust, therefore, that churches of the Denomination and our friends throughout the country will heartily respond to the urgent appeal made on behalf of the Annual Collection, from which grants are made to our Centres. Our General Treasurer— Mr. Edward Jones, J.P , Llandinam,Montgomeryshire, is face to face with a deficit of over £1300. To withold the grant for one month would paralyse many of our Centres.
