urday of last week with over 200
delegates in attendance. The mem-
mbers were accompanied by their

Fergus, president of ‘the National
Association was given the honorary
degree of LLD. at the recent con
vocation.
From the university the ladies
were taken for a trip through the
plant of the McCormick Biscuit
Company and were each presented
with two half pound boxes of bis
cuits. From there they were taken
to the Woodeden Camp for crippled
children where they were surprised
and delighted with what the Rotary
Club have provided for the crippled
children of Ontario in an all-the-
year-round program.
The association -dinner was held
at Hotel London in the evening
when an address was given by Hon,
Paul Martin, Secretary of State for
Canada. The address Was broadcast
over CFPL and in a masterly and
impressive manner Le appealed for
unity in matters of rhee, religion
ahd politics to assure Canada her
rightful place among the nations.
He spoke of the place Canada had
gained among the nations in her
war effort and appealed -for her to
take her* place in helping to relieve
the distressed conditions overseas.

Itching, Burning, Stinging
Eczema or Salt Rheum
Eczema, or salt rheum as it is commonly called,
is one of the most painful of all skin troubles.
The intense burning, etching and smarting, espe
cially at night, or when the affected part is exposed to
heat, or the hands placed in hot water are most un
bearable, and relief is gladly welcomed.
", The relief offered by Burdock Blood Bitters is based on the knowledge
that such ailments, as eczema, and other skin troubles, are caused by an
impure blood condition.
