The June meeting of the Woman’s Missionary Society of Wingham. Un* ited Church was held bn Tuesday af ternoon with Mrs. P, Gowans presid ing. The Scripture wag read by Miss Turner and Mrs. John Blake offered prayer. Mrs. Gowans gave an inter esting and instructive description of Eskimo life in the far north, Giving her report as temperance Secretary, Mrs. Wm- Field laid special emphasis on alcoholism, telling of its rapid growth and the methods used to combat it, The theme, "One Solitary Life”, which was the life of Jesus was pre sented by Mrs. Thos, Bowers in a pleasing and effective manner. She followed Jesus from His birth down through the years till His death, showing that from His life we learn the brotherhood of man, which is true religion. We get nothing out of life unless we put something into it, and the really happy people are those who Jive unselfish lives. Carrying out the theme, Mrs, McKnight sang the ap propriate solo, “Teach Me How to Live”. An interesting letter was read by Mrs. Lloyd Hingston from her son in Korea, picturing conditions there and telling the great need for food and clothing of all kinds for the natives.

McDonald Passes in London The latg Catherine I. McDonald, Who died in London on June 5th, was born in Puslipch Township in 187?, In 1902 she became the wife of the late Rev, A. R. McDonald, % minister of the Baptist Church. Her husband died in 1918. Since then she raised and educated their two gons, Archie of Wingham and Alex of Agincourt, who are now teachers. She devoted her whole life to the cause of Christ and was actively engaged in the Lord’s work in the Baptist church. In the Chesiey Baptist church she had been clerk and steward for many years, besides being a Sunday School teacher and a member of the Mis sionary Society. Sh« was also active in the work of the Women’s Christian Temperance Union. During the last six years she had been in failing health and finally passed to her reward on Saturday, shortly after a paralytic stroke. The funeral wag held in Chesiey, being conducted by the Rev. John Mil lon of Chesiey Baptist Church. She was of a kind disposition and had. many friends, as was shown in the many floral tributes at the funeral. The pallbearers were Messrs. Roht. Open Letter to the Community: Some of the citizens of this commun ity at least, will not accept the magis trate’s decision in two cases brought UP on Monday last, without at least a word of protest. We believe we speak for a large number of citizens, including police officers and church leaders when we say we were disap pointed' and amazed to hear that one of the persons charged was allowed to remain free to carry on his nefar ious trade instead of going to jail, for the simple reason that there was not enough evidence to convict him of "having for sale, intoxicating li quors." We would like to point out to the magistrate and citizens of thia county that in the Canada Temperance Act, section 141, it states clearly, “In prov ing the sale or barter or other un lawful disposal of liquor for the pur pose of any proceeding relative to any offence under the Temperance Act, it shall not be necessary to show that any money actually passed or that any liquor was actually consumed, if the justices, magistrates or other officer or court, hearing the case, is satisfied that a transaction, in the nature of a sale or barter or other unlawful dis posal, actually took place.” Apparently, the magistrate involved felt that no transaction hacl taken place. We would like to ask him if anyone could dispute the evidence of dozens of cases of liquor in a home as being there for any purpose other than for sale.

This failure to enforce the Canada Temperance Act for its rightful pur pose, to make this county temperate and God-fearing, leaves many Chris tian citizens’ not only disappointed with law enforcement in “this county and its officers, but fighting mad. The Wets need not think that the Drys just sit back and take it lying down. We are confident that justice will pre vail in this, and other cases, so that the County of Huron will be rid of traffickers in what has come to be known as ‘'Death in Bottles”. We are sick and tired of the unnecessary deaths on the highway due to liquor, and the scourge to the countryside provided by empty beer bottles and loud talk and unseemly behaviour and broken homes.
