E. Haver gal. OuKIInG these last hundred years, 1 he Bible Pociety has grown up into a great it whose privilege it is to translate and spread the Scriptures broadcast over the wide, wide world. It leaves interpretation, and criticism, and comment to be dealt with by those who are adepts in such profound matters, while itself labours with the sole object of placing this Book, which oJl men need, in the hand of each man that will accept it. The Parent Society has published from the beginning 101 Reports of its operations. These Report*, have given a fair view of the work done by this mighty institution. Last year its centenary was kept in a becoming manner in our own neighbourhood, and throughont almost every land. Nobody can know how much light was added to the last century by means of the Society's labours. At least, of this we are sure, that God's Word was put in the hands of millions of the children of men who, but for its help, would never have seen it. In fact, there is no need now cf very clever advocacy to plead this Society's claims to the patronage of an enlightened land. In her hundredth year she is fully able to speak for herself more eloquently than none else can. The utterance of a cen- tury of such labour as she has accomplished is irresistible, if it only have an intelligent and unbiassed hearing. By such an assertion, we do not deny that there is as much need as ever of able speakers on behalf of this institution. What we mean is, that the speakers ought to bo mouthpieces through which the Society is to describe to her supporters what shj has done with the public money entri-isted to We ask seriously why are the Bible bociecy aunivoi-SHnos so muv-ular ?

We inuf-t say that one outstanding feature of the year 1901-05 has been the disorganization of the Auxiliary's ordinary work in consequence of the cen- tenary celebrations, and we find that these have told unfavourably on the usual collections of many auxiliaries besides our own. The attendance at the anniversary this year was above the average, dnd tv;c foot must in a creat measure be attributed to the presence on the occasion of the esteemed District Secretary, Dr. Cynddylan Jones, who, in his characteristic address easily succeeded from first to last to rivet the attention of his listeners. We would hT" to him among us much oftener, but it seems that his onerous duties will not al'ow a more frequent visit to Pembrokeshire, and the next good thing he can do for us is to send, as he usually does, the very best men he can in his btead.^ important, aspect of religious life in the principality at present is "the marvellous Revival which has spread more or less over and beyond the whole land One result of this great movement ought to be an advance in liber- ality, but it is yet too soon to know in full its bearing on the Society's work. P, i ht clad were we to find that in a few places this year in North Wales the anniversaries' were Exceptionally good. Instead of the usual meagre attend- ance, immense congregations have gathered and the character of ne meetings were affected by the religious earnestness of the people. Old formalities of reso- lution and votes cf thanks were discarded, and the meetings became alive with lution and votes of thanks were discarded, and the meetings became alive with the spirit of prayer and praise following the addresses on uhe special work of t.ie Society. a<rain stands by itself for the momentous events that it wit- nessed.
