rapidly increases the official labors of our 

 association, until in 1899, the executive, 

 recognizing- the needs of the work, engaged 

 a regular assistant in the person of Miss 

 Wilena Brodie, who had already been for 

 ten years engaged as private assistant at 

 the expense of the Secretary. And since 

 this young lady is now officially connected 

 with our work, and is so intimately connected 

 with every department of it, we have secured 

 a photograph of her to be engraved for the 

 the readers of our journal. Miss Brodie is 

 the daughter of Mr. Jas. Brodie of Grimsby, 



a son of the late Rev. Geo. Brodie, of 

 Trinidad. Her education at high school 

 and business college, united with great 

 natural business capacity, admirably qualify 

 her for the work of bookkeeper and stenog- 

 rapher for our association. Added to this, 

 she has become an expert in photography, 

 and the larger part of the illustrations used 

 in this journal are her work, though not 

 often credited. By this means we are able 

 to give originality to our illustrations, which 

 could not be had without such able assis 

 tance.
