    Notes:

    HARDER. - Bernice May, daughter of the late J. K. and Suzanna (Cressman) Devitt, was born at Kitchener, Ont., May 23, 1883; died at the K-W Hospital, Kitchener, Sept. 17, 1945; aged 62y. 3 m. 25 d. On Oct. 27, 1920, she was married to Henry J. Harder, who survives. She also leaves one brother (Roydon, Windsor, Ont.) and 3 sisters (Elsie - Mrs. W. Yantz, Waterloo, Ont.; Alice ? Mrs. Henry Gremm, Calgary, Alta.; and Lena - Mrs. E. C. Dreyfus, Detroit, Mich.). Sister Harder was converted during a series of meetings held at Breslau, Ont., by Bro. S. F. Coffman and united with the Mennonite Church there. Shortly after, she went to Toronto and helped in the opening of the Toronto Mennonite Mission. Recognizing her need for further training for Christian service, she graduated from Toronto Bible Training School in 1911. She, with Bro. T. K. Hershey (now in South America), started the mission in Youngstown, Ohio. The years 1917-1919 she spent as a worked in the Kansas City Children's Home, and 1921-1945 as a minister's wife in the Carstairs, Alta.; congregation. She was always interested in spiritual and benevolent work, Sunday School, and summer Bible school. "Others" seems indeed to have been her motto. The only note of sadness in her home-going seems to have been the fact that she couldn't take her friends with her. May her faith be ours, and may her example be a real incentive to us to be faithful in our service for our lord. Funeral services were held at the First Mennonite Church, Kitchener, Sept. 21, in charge of S. F. Coffman and Oscar Burkholder. Text, II Tim. 1: 12.
