BORN * the Fennante were presented at Mem­ orial School at the Monday morn­ ing assembly of the Canadian School Financial Corps. To enlist in the Corps it is nec­ essary to purchase two stamps. Each pupil receives credit for the stamps he purchases from the teacher, whether they be for him­ self, Ms immediate family, or some member of the community. Upon enlistment each member receives the button of the Corps, which is returned to the teacher when the pupil earns and receives a button of I higher rank. Ranks in the C.&F.C. are the same as the non-commissioned ranks in the Army. When a member , has sold 32 stamps he becomes a Lance-Corporal. (His membership button is replaced with a button bearing one red stripe of the Lance- Corporal’s rank. When he has sold 64 stamps the Lance-Corporal's but- ’ ton is replaced with a full Corpor- , al’s button, bearing two stripes. tWith the sale of 128 stamps he be- , comes a sergeant in the Corps, and the Corporal's button is replaced with a Sergeant's button, with three ] stripes. The Sergeant-Major's but­ ton has three stripes and a crown, and is given him when he has sold 256 stamps. Boys wear the badge on the left coat lapel, or on the cuff of the left sleeve. Girls wear the badge on the right lapel, or on the cuff of the right sleeve. Mr. L. B. Hyde, Inspector, ex­ plained the workings of the Canad­ ian School Financial Corps. He complimented the pupils on reaching their quota of $8500—Memorial School, $2900, and Princess Eliza­ beth School, $600, since February 1st, Mr. Hyde introduced the speaker, Mr. J. R. Henley of the National War Finance Committee and Mr. J. J. McLeod, Secretary- Treasurer of the Board of Education. Mr. Henley praised the boys and girls for their war effort. He also paid tribute to the teachers for the part played by them. The speaker said that the War Finance Commit­ tee was well pleased with the sale of stamps among the boys and girls. The Memorial Pennant was presented to Harold Waterhouse, a Sergeant- Major in the Memorial School force by Mr. Henley. Mr. McLeod complimented the pupils on their assembly. He went on to congratulate both schools on their war effort. The speaker point­ ed out that sometimes the buying of stamp meant the 'doing without’ of some of the things that boys and girls like to have. However, he said that it was a ■ good sign when the boys and girls were buying stamps in such large numbers instead ofspending thrf money on leu im­ portant things. Mr. McLeod present­ ed the pennant to Princess Elizabeth School. !t was received by Jim Nancektvell. It is also worthy of notice that besides exceeding their quota in War Savings, the Ingersoll pupils have raised over $250 for Junior Red Cross.

The annual picnic of the Ingersoll Junior Institute and Junior Farmers was held on Tuesday last at South­ side Park, Woodstock, with a large attendance. Scores of friends were shocked to hear of the death shortly before 11 o’clock on Friday morning of Mina Thompson, beloved wife of A. Leo Law, at the family residence, Canterbury street.

Australia and In­ dia were sent material valued at over $21 million.— Uy Jim Greenblat — The urgent plea has gone out for 10,000 extra workers in the expan­ sion of Canada's ammunition pro­ duction program. Do you know that this year the shell program will ab­ sorb 15% of our total steel sup­ plies, or about tiwice as much as used for that purpose last year. The Allies are not running short of ammunition, but they’re using it up fast as the tempo of the battle everywhere increases. At Waterloo, in 1815, the British fired 37 tons of ammunition in one day. At Passchendaele in World War I, the Canadian Corps averaged 1,370 tons every 24 hours. But to­ day a single 25-pounder gun can fire 1M tons in half an hour. Dur­ ing the battle of the Moro River in the Italian campaign, our 25- pounder batteries pumped 250,000 rounds of ammunition, more than 3,000 tons of the stuff, into Ger­ man line*. • The fire power in Normandy these days may make that figure look like a country fair fireworks display. Ottawa advise* next-of-kin of Canadian prisoners in Japanese hands not to put too much credence in radio messages from Japan from their relatives. Many messages are released for propaganda purpose*. Our service handles them if they are deemed reliable and sends them through. Both the United States and Canada have organization* that look after this sort of thing, so don’t be taken in by some unscrupulous people who offer to send you a mes­ sage they picked up on the radio, 'for a consideration.” Sound advice in connection with coal supplies as summer will soon be on the wan*: Place full orders for coal at once; accept it whenever your dealer can deliver it, and take what ever suitable kind he can de­ liver. It is also suggested that now is the time to clean heating equip- Sent; to have it in good operating mditon and have storm doors and windows repaired ready for next winter. We all know we should fol­ low this advice but sometimes pro­ crastinate. David H. Gibson, C.B.E. Presi­ dent of the Navy League of Canada has reported that nearly two mil­ lion visitors to the league’s hostel* and clubs on the east coast were looked after last year, a marvellous contribution to the war effort. Up­ wards of 80,000 naval ratings and Wrens enjoyed the privleges of the Navy League's clubs at Digby alone, and another 23,350 at Pictou. Farmers will be interested In this answer to the enormous disappear­ ance of feed grain in Canada dur­ ing the past two years. Since 1941, total number of cattle, hogs, hones, sheep, hens and chickens on our farms increased about one-third. Hens and chickens rose_ by 14000,- 000; hogs by nearly 3 million and cattle 1,250,000. During the crop year 1942-48 the quantity of oats consumed for livestock and poultry feed totalled 433,000,000 bushels, while barley was fed to the extent of 146,000,000 bushels. Besides this no less than 94 million bushels of wheat went towards the mainten­ ance of Canada’s livestock and poul­ try. Preliminary estimates are about the same for the current crop year, although less oats, more wheat like­ ly to go to animals. The Garden Party under the aus­ pices of the Ingersoll Choral So­ ciety, held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. F. N. Horton, Oxford street, was a decided success. The various booths were well patronised and the financial returns iwere most grati­ fying to the society. wbere they were called owing to the critical illnew of Mr. fleet, Sr. Misses Dorothy iBain and Miss Susan Richardson attending the World’s Fair at Chicago. Arrangements are now complete for the annual boya' camp at Fich­ er's Glen, conducted under the joint auspices of the Woodstock Y.M.C.A and the Ingersoll Triangle Club. - Miss Grace Wood of Toronto, spetat the wjek-end in town with her mother and sisters, on Skye street.

We do not recommend pro­ cessing food in tin cans placed in the oven. 2. There are three types of tin cans available. The plain can la a general purpose can which may be used for all foods. R enamelled cans have a special coating which assists in maintaining the normal colouring of red berries and beets. C enamelled cans have a special coating to prevent discoloration of corn. They are also suggested for processing green beans, <rpeas and kidney beans. C enamelled cans are not recommended for acid fruits or tomatoes. 3. If the food is not precooked, cover with hot syrup. The contents of‘the can should be processed ac­ cording to the following method: Place covered cans on a rack in processor with boiling water about two inches from the top of the cans. Keep the water boiling during the processing period, but do not let it bubble over into the cans. Seal with sealing machine according to the manufacturers* directions.

With the substantial increase in early sales, greater hatchability, and a good growing season, there are ample potential supplies of eggs and poultry in sight to meet all an­ ticipated requirements, states the Dominion Egg and Poultry Market Report There is also the grave ques­ tion of the use of feed for the pro­ duction of anything the essentiality of which is subject to doubt in war time. July and August chicks have al­ ways been a problem. In the past the main justification for hatching them has been to Obtain a second crop for poultry meat While some persons have undoubtedly been suc­ cessful to a certain extent it is doubtful if, in the aggregate their efforts have been profitable. This year, with a big supply of poultry products in sight and the necessity of saving feed whenever possible, July and August chicks are just not needed. There is a possibility that some difficulty may even be ex- perienqpd in marketing poultry al­ ready on the farms. z JUDY SHIRLEY Judy Shirley, who is frequently heard in the British Broad­ casting Corporation General Forces Programme, is a special fav­ ourite with the Forces in the Mediterranean theatre of war as she has just finished a sole tour of that area.

It works better than starch, not only with most rayon fabrics, but with delicate organdies and fine voiles as welt The amount of gelatin used de­ pends on the stiffness desired; two tablespoons is usually enough for a rayon dress. Soak the gelatin a few minutes in ajittle cold water, then dissolve with boiling water. Strain and use as you would boiled starch. Add cold water to make enough so­ lution to cover the dress, about two quarts. After washing the dress in lukewarm water and gentle fine fabric suds, rinse and dip in the cool gelatin solution, squeeze gently and roll up in a thick towel until ready to iron. Diagnia* Overnight Cream and Curlers. ' From the young bride who's too clever to appear in “smeary cream and curlers”, come these welcome tips on bedtime grooming. c First, it really isn't necessary to retire un­ der a heavy eoat of cream, since lubricating and other creams do their maximum amount of good in the first half hour or so. Her rou­ tine commences with a whipped cream lather facial of gentle beauty soap for absolute cleanliness. Next, for dry skin, smear on generously a special oil or lubricating cream.. Now a bath scented with bath oil or bath salts, and a brush of dust­ ing powder for a velvety finish. By this time the half hour is up and off comes the lubricating cream. If she looks pallid, the bride applies the slightest touch of cream rouge to cheeks and lips to give a faint natural glow under the skin. Last, the hair comes in for a vigorous brushing. If nothing further is needed, she can tie on a pretty rib­ bon and leave her hair loose. But if it’s the kind that requires con­ stant attention, the necessary pin curls or rolls can be hidden under a dainty chiffon scarf. No matter how tightly the back hair has to be done, the front part can be loosely pinned and showing. Painting Tip* Here are some handy tips that will save you work when you next feel like painting furniture or wood­ work. To start, see that your paint­ brush is in good condition, clean and free of hardened paint or varnish. If the paint you are using has thickened in the can, set it in a dish of hot water for a few min­ utes; it will then flow on easily. To keep hands and fingernails free of paint, simply dip them in melted paraffin before commencing the job. When you tackle high mould­ ings or ceilings, tie a piece of old flannel around the brush just below the bristles; it absorbs the paint that runs back, and prevents it from dripping. Don't neglect ypur brush before you put it away;•re­ member a good' one is hard to re­ place nowadays. Use turpentine* or paint remover to clean it of paint, and follow by washing well with warm water and extra soapy suds. This softens the bristles and keeps them in good condition until you need the brush again. One of the demands of warm weather is more open windows, with dusty sills as a consequence. Here’s a tip that will allow Mrs. Tidy Housewife to keep her windows open as wide as 'she pleases—with a minimum amount of dust collect­ ing on the sills. After a thorough scrubbing with warm water and extra-soapy suds, give window sills a light waxing with * o.dinary floorwax. The wax forms a smooth dir| and moisture resistant surface that I requires only dusting. SALFORDMr and Mr*. Jatnea Porter ofttiHl, arrived Saturday to spendpan of their vacation with the for­mer'.

The tunnel seemed to continue into the ground. Some 50 neighboring fanners gathered with high-powered rifles and shotguns, and the haystack was set afire, while the fanners waited for the bears to come out. Nothing happened, however, and the embers were too hot to permit examination in the same evening. A vigil was being maintained, how- been notified if the farmers ought sight of the bears, dead or alive. Up to noon the next day be had re­ ceived no word. Many felt that the bears, gorged with pork, theiff fav­ orite delicacy, may have gone to sleep in the stack. In such instan­ ces. it is not unusual for them to sleep thre^ or four days, and if they were in the underground tun­ nel they may have escaped suffo­ cation.

Saturday, June 3rd, 1944 Sirs: Given in marriage by her father, the bride was lovely in a street­ length frock of white sheer, made on fitted lines and with inserts of lace at the waist and neckline. She wore a white halo hat with veil and carried a white Prayer Book from which fell a cascade of carnations and white snapdragon. Mrs. W. C. Garrett of Ingersoll, was her Water’s only attendant, and wore a becom­ ing street-length frock of turquoise sheer with a white hat and veil and a corsage of red rose* and white snapdragon. Marcus Haig of Wat­ erloo, was his brother’s best man. Following the ceremony, a recept­ ion for immediate relatives and friends was held at th home of the bride’s parents, where a buffet lun­ cheon was served by Mrs. Kenneth White, Misses Doris Burton. Adeline Hollands and Theresa Stephenson, girl friends of the bride. Rev. Mr. Merifleld read two telegrams from the bride’s brothers, Gnr. Fred Sheldon in Italy and Leading Sea­ man Ben Sheldon at sea. Mr. and Mrs. Haig left later on a trip to points east, the bride choosing for travelling a smart silk jersey frock in floral design, with beige accessories and carried a beige coat. Upon their return they will make their home in Kitchener, carrying with them the best wishes of a host of friends for a happily wedded life. The bride’s attendant received a gold compact and the waitresses gold earrings, as mementos of th^ happy occasion. Dear I thought, it was away overdue for this letter, so while I have some spare time just now, it seems a very good time to get it written. I re­ ceived your gift of 300 cigarettes, for which I am deeply thankful. It gives us fellows over here a lot of morale to know that every­ one, whom we left at home in Ing­ ersoll, is right behind us until we can all see this thing through. We chaps from Ingersoll, think we are most fortunate when the factories there and the clubs like your own send us cigarettes. I cannot imagine that very many of you men have ever tried the English brands. But I would never advise any of you to try them. They are not worth going out of our way to buy. The weather over here now is very nice, and the scenery of the country at this time of the year! Never in my life have I seen so many different shades of the per­ fect greens, so well blended by nature. The trees, the grass, the numerous hedges, and the shrub­ bery. all over the country; all are various green colours. It is very beautiful to see, and to me the long trip here is just worthwhile to see this country in spring, even if there were no war on over here. But I guess all of us would like to see the end of the battle so we could return once more to our own peaceful way of life there in Inger­ soll. Well, once more, thanks a lot for the smokes.

With the farm labour shortage just now so acute and when all out production of food is so essential to the war effort, the accident toll is particularly serious, A survey has disclosed that mach­ inery is the chief source of farm work accidents; that live stock run* a close second and that falls are in third place. The wise farmer is he who learning the causes of accidents on his farm takes steps to eliminate such causes and all possible hazards. For example, the fact that loose clothing causes one-third of all farm accidents involving machinery should make anyone avoid that par­ ticular hazard like the plague. And the ever-present threat of fire, which annually destroy* mil­ lions of dollars worth of rural prop­ erty; ought to be enough for a far­ mer to justify devoting at least a part of one morning per month to looking round the farm for fire haz­ ards, and accident hazards, too. Prevention of accidents means avoiding making an aeute farm labour shortage more acute and also means an even bigger contribu­ tion to food production.

POLITICAL. REPERCUSSIONS INFORMATIVE AND AGREEABLE It is said along Parliament HiU that the conference in camera of Fedenal-mnd Provincial officials, in­ cluding provincial health ministers and their deputies, had a rather in­ formative and agreeable three days’ meeting when they gathered in Ot­ tawa to study a draft of a national health bill. of caution at the time when he said in part in the House of Commons: “These men are facing a strong and desperate enemy. We cannot expect that operations will keep REASON FOR INCREASE In answer to a question asked by a member of Parliament , Hon. Major General L. R. LaFleche, Min­ ister of National War Services, has The great activities in several provincial political fields, including the recent sweeping results in Sas­ katchewan and the coming test in Quebec, are adding fuel to the fires of already excited feelings of anger, animosity and resentment among the politicians which have been aggravated in the Federal political field by the excessive heat in the nation’s capital, by the amazingly heavy legislative programme in this session and by the history­ making events in the war. In other words, the political atmosphere in Ottawa now is rather possessed of inflammable or explosive material which can break out suddenly in possible repercussions along Parlia­ ment Hill depending in no small measure upon the exact results of the other test of pdblic opinion in the provincial political field and the developments in the war situation, with thecate of these provincial ad­ ministrations bound to serve as a timely barometric reading for the present administration in Ottawa, particularly since the recent election in Saskatchewan where Federal pol­ itical forces entered into the ballgt battles and the results seemed to indicate a strong political opinion in favour of more and more changes in conditions. Indeed, the outcome in this provincial political field in Saskatchewan is certain to reveal itself in reactions in the Federal field since in the last Federal elect­ ion of 1940 about 70 per cent of the voters in Saskatchewan cast their ballots and they expressed an poin- ion at that time in sharp contrast to the latest trend in the recent pro­ vincial election when these voters indicated an- entirely different pol­ itical thought from what 33.5 per cent of these elegibile voters had shown in the 1938 provincial elect­ ion that saw 440,270 votes polled, including 200,370 for the Liberals, 82,568 for the C.C.F., 69,720 for the Social Credit, 52,366 for the Conservatives, and 35,249 for other groups. indicated that Canada’s new short­ wave station at Sackville, N.B., would cost 11,100,000 compared with an original estimate of |800,- 000. with the increase in cost having been due to a new and more elab­ orate antenna system which, it was believed, would provide a signal equal that which would have been provided by transmitters four times, the power operating on the type of antenna originally considered. LATEST OUTBREAK Again and again, the absence of the official head of the Opposition Party in Parliament, the Progress­ ive-Conservative Party has been raised by the supporters of the Government. The latest outbreak occurred when the possibility of the creation of a Forestry Department was indicated by a prominent mem­ ber of the Progressive-Conservative Party in the Honse of Commons and the supporters of the Government shouted t “Where is Bracken?” The Official Opposition spokesman re­ plied: “Mr. Bracken is out studying problems you don’t undentend. This caused a Minister of the Gov­ ernment to say in part: “I think he is more interested in forestry policy than in the Official Opposition in this House.” “What did you think of your present leader when you came into this House?” accountered another Opposition member. “He does not need to barge into this dis­ cussion,” replied this Minister. "He went into Manitoba and campaigned against Mr. Bracken.” However this Opposition member denied flatly this allegation.

A Fuller World •> - of The Future (By G. R. Snyder) New chemical wonders, helicop­ ters and cars, are being widely ac­ claimed as the means for creation of a post-war prosperity. Undoubt­ edly all these will play a notable part, but with each passing month it becomes abundantly clear that government circles in all the United Nations are counting on the “food plan” as the key to continued pros­ perity and goodwill. President Roosevelt started the food strategy idea rolling when he covened the United Nations Food Conference at Hot Springs. The Conference was a remarkable suc­ cess and created a precedent for the efficient handling of international goodwill meetings. Since the Con­ ference, great enthusiasm for the principles outlines has been aroused in Great Britain by Sir John Boyd Orr's book, “Food and the People” and the new motion picture “World of Plenty”, sponsored by the Brit­ ish Ministries of Information and of Food. The ‘I’m from Missouri’ type of personality will be very skeptical of the success of the ‘More and Better Food for All the World” idea, and undoubtedly many great obstacles will have to be overcome. However, the war has taught United Nations statesmen how to work together and also how to co-ordinate the efforts of the people along desirable lines. The general idea behind the the food plan is that even in the moat prosperous nations great masses of the people are not get­ ting enough of the health foods. In countries of huge populations like India and China, the majority of the people are always perilously close to actual starvation. It is estimated on the basis of 1941 figures that in the United States the fruit and vegetable output will have to be increased by about 75 per cent, milk by about 39 per cent and eggs by 28 per cent to feed the whole population on an ade­ quate health standard. On a world­ wide basis it is estimated that the production of these protective foods would have to be increased by between 100 and 200 per cent. As to the situation in Canada, the Advisory Committee on Reconstruc­ tion suggests that consumption and tional levels could providing children and free mid-day meals at school, also by the establishment of cheap factory canteens. Increased production of food will require huge increases in product­ ion of farm machinery. Better dis­ tribution of food will demand im­ proved transportation facilities. muaity “Y” Mrs. West had endeared heroelf to a host of friends since com­ ing to Ingersoll, by her kindly and gracious manner. She was a member of Trinity United Church and of Lady Dufferin Chapter, I.O.D.E. Left to mourn the passing of a dearly beloved wife and mother are her husband and one son, Godfrey, at home. Also surviving are her mother, Mrs. Mary Robinson, Elmvale, Ont.; two brothers, James Robinson in the forces, in Nova Scotia, Frederick, Port Arthur, and one sister, Mrs. Gordon Darling, North Bay, to all of whom the sympathy of their many friends is extended. The funeral was conducted on Wed­ nesday afternoon from the Fred S. Newman Funeral Home, where an impressive service was conducted at 2.30 o’clock by Rev. R. H. Parr, assisted by Rev. H. E. Merifield. There was a profusion of floral tributes which with the large atten. danee of friends at the service, testified to the esteem in which Mrs. West was held. The Y’s Men's Club attended in a body. Interment was made in the Ingersoll Rural Ceme­ tery, the palbearers being Gordon Henry, Gordon Pittock, Harold Uren, Gordon Waters, Louis Martin and Howard Horton, all members of the Y’s Men’s Club. ♦7.

FULL COURSE MEALS 3 WHOLESOME FISH CAFE luaeneU No. 3 Hi* Friday, J 7th capacity; 30 ST The final report of the Canadian House of Commons Sub-committee on Post-war Problems of Women contains a section on, the problems of farm women, indicating that un­ der present conditons young ‘ wom­ en are leaving the farms and older women are bearing intolerable bur­ dens, writes Frank Shefrin, Econom­ ics Division, Dominion Department of Agriculture, in the Economic Annalist. Accordingly, the Sub-com­ mittee has listed some special needs of the farm women. It is recognized that the woman on the farm has special problems due ’ to the fact that she is a homemaker engaged in productive work. It was on this basis that recommendations were made with regard to the extension of electrification of the farm home, farm housing, provision for a plen­ tiful supply of running water, and provision for farm sanitation. The report urged the establishment of adequate health services in rural areas. A rather striking recommendation, observes Mr. Shefrin, was the one listing a number of remunerative enterprises in agriculture, such as mushroom culture, dehydration of fruits and vegetables, boarding houses, and other projects that might attract young womep back to the farm. It was recommended that where necessary some sort of assist­ ance should be given to help estab­ lish young women in small enter­ prises. Sira To was COOL OFF!

Chemical factories would make fer­ tilizer in place of explosives; liberty ships would be carrying food to Europe, China, India and other needy lands. In other words, the new food policy will be a self­ starter for a movement to pull agri­ culture, industry and trade out of the trough and post-transition de­ pression and set them on the road to an expanding world economy. On hearing of the food plan, the average citizen immediately asks: ‘But where would the money come from to pay for the food we would ship to needy peoples?’ and again, ‘If we start feeding the people of highly populated countries to the extent that they become healthier and live twice as long (average life expectancy in India is 27 yean on basis of 1930 figures), won’t they soon crowd the rest of us off. the earth?’ To the first objection Sir John Boyd On* replies that conjur­ ing wealth for oneself out of some­ one else’s scarcity is as dangerous a pursuit for nations as it is for in­ dividuals. Trade in food involves trade in other commodities, and a well-fed world will (be a prosperous world. To the latter objection he claims that according to world his­ tory* as a country becomes prosper­ ous there is a reduction in birth­ rate, apparently a result of people’s desire to get pleasure out of life and to see that their children get a better education and rea­ sonable opportunity for pleasure and health, ------- A strong point in favour of the food plan is that the good neigh­ bour spirit engendered wfll exert a strong influence. on international politics and will accelerate the march of mankind towards the higher civilization which science has made possible. A clergyman having performed [he marriage ceremony for a couple, undertook io write out the usual certificate, but being in d^ubt as to the day of the month he asked: “This is the ninth is it not?" “Why parson,” said th blushing bride, “you do all my marrying and you ought to remember that this is only the third.” . (From the Ontario Department) of Agriculture) Reports of early crops which were threatened with disaster being saved by the prompt action of Farm Commando Brigades in send­ ing out volunteer help to meet the critical need are already pouring into the office of the Ontario Farm Service Force' at the Parliament Buildings, Toronto. Two such re­ ports of particular significance come from the southwestern section of Ontario. A few days ago a crop of approx­ imately 100 acres of onions in the Chatham district looked like being a complete loss on account of the lack of help to do the weeding and thinning of the young plants. An emergency call /was made to the Chatham Farm Commando brigade and on Wednesday some 300 volun­ teers responded and were rushed to the onion fields. On the next day, Thursday, 388 volunteers offered their services and were sent out to the area where help was required. A similar group went into action on Friday and as a result of their effort the onion crop on 100 acres of land was saved from disaster. A letter received from the Chair­ man of the Farm Commando Brig­ ade at Tillsonburg tells a somewhat similar story. This newly organized brigade has already proved its worth. The letter says: “We made a good start this week as a farmer two miles out had given up nine acres of onions. Through our organization we sent out an emergency appeal and in two days and evening we sent out a total of 137 boys and girls to save this onion crop. This now assures us that we hav^ the boys and girls of Tillsonburg well organized for any future needs and that we will meet with better success in round­ ing up yolupteers to help the far­ mers.” Jt-• '’ Xi* i ~ This testimony to the worth of the Farm Commando Brigades should give an impetus to the organ­ ization of such brigades of farm volunteer workers in every urban community in Ontario, particularly M the need for volunteer labour this year is far beyond any demand which has had to be met during the last three or four years. The president, Mrs. Oliver Smith, was hostess recently for the regu­ lar meeting of the St. Columba W.M.S. The first vice-president, Mrs. Jaek Mackay, was in charge of the meeting which opened with the National Anthem, followed by silent prayer for the armed forces and prayer by the president. The devo­ tional exercises were in charge of Mrs. George Matheson and Mrs. Wilfred Hutchison. The regular reports were read and approved. It was decided that the July, August and September meetings would be held in the evening. Mrs. James McBeth read an in­ teresting paper on “Missions”. The chapter of the study book, “For All of Life," was reviewed by Mrs. (Rev.) Elmer Taylor and a selected reading on “Missions," which was the theme of the meeting, given by Mrs. James McCaul. Two lovely piano solo, “Cantalene”' (E. S. Hosmer), and “Alleluia., Alle­ luia", (W. Armstrong), given by Miss Jean McCaul, were much en­ joyed. The report of the sectional meet­ ing held recently at Embro, was presented by Mrs. Oliver Smith. The meeting closed with a hymn, prayer by the president, and the Lord's Prayer repeated in unison.
