Street Afternoon Auxiliary of the
Woman's Missionary Society on
Thursday was an temperance re-
ferring particularly to the Can-
ada. Temperance Act.
Points emphasized were:
1. In 1935 the Supreme Court
ruled that the 1.CA was not more
restrictive than the CTA and
stated that the CTA should be
re -instated.
2, The repeal of the CTA would
trot do away with :bootlegging

The young people under 21 are

attitudes of their parents toward
the consumption of alcoholic bev-

Just Like c
.family party
By MRS, WILFRED MACK
EDINBTJRG,II, SCOTLAND
It is a wondklrful and enriching
experience to be attending this
ronferenee of Associated Coun-
try Women of the World. Mrs.
Berry in her opening clay speech
spoke of it as a family gathering
and indeed it is just that. 1 am
the' only Canadian staying at
`[Mayfair Hall. Others are from
Ceylon, British Guiana, the United
States of America, England, Den-
mark :and Finland. I have met
only one person, in attendance,
who .does not speak English,
At meal time, on the bus, at
the meetings or just sitting down
to rest you meet other members
and eonversetion never lags. To-
day it was a lady from North-
ern Ireland. She .lives just six
miles from Belfast. I told her
that my husband's family come
,from near Belfast. We had a
most interesting chat and she
tolyl me where I might obtain in-
formation about our family.
Last evening we had a long
discussion with a delegate from
Maryland on 'the racial difficul-
ties in the United States. I don't
expect that we solved any of the
problems hut in this exchange of
opinions and ideas we learn what
other people think,
On the bus 1 talked with a
member of the civil defense.
She told me that she had been
one who had guarded Queen
1dary's carpet when it was on
exhibition an London. She said
they were all so pleased that
the Daughters .of the Empire
had bought it, and that ti.t had a
permanent home at Ottawa,
Another interesting experience
I had was at lunch one clay. I
met a member from Manitoba.
I had seen her name on the list
of those attending the confer-
ence and wondered about her as
the name is so well known in our
community. In talking to her I.
discovered that her husband had
been born in Crediton and al-
though. I didn't know him I had
known his parents • and other
m.eiribers of his family quite
well. We had a long chat and she
promised to send some family
history for our Tweedsmuir His-
tory.
These are, we might say, some
of the by-products of the eon-
ference but in many ways they
are just as important as the ses-
sions. Many of the members at-
tending this conference have
been visiting delegates whom
they met at previous conferences.
In this way continuing links of
friendships are. being built a-
round the world.
In a previous article 'l men-
tioned that there were 13 con-
stituent societies in Canada. 1
see by the lists published that
there are 14 and the United
States of America .has 52, These
two .countries have the largest
.number of societies represented
at the ACWW conference.
We were entertained at a Civie
Garden Party at Laureston Cas-
tle, it was given by the Lord
Provost, magistrates and coun-
cil of the .city .of Edinburgh.
Laurestan. Castle was presented
to the city by Mr. and Mrs. Reid.
It is.administered by Edinburgh
Corporation, as trustees.
The rastie is maintained in a
large measure as it was when.
the owner died. This was their
wish. It is open to the public
and we were able to see the
beautiful furniture and furnish-
ings of the late Victorian and
Edwardian times.
The grounds are spacious and
overlook the .Firth. of Forth. It
is regarded as one of the most
attractive of the city parks, It
was a colorful party; the sun
shone, there was music by the
Royal Highland 'Fusiliers and the
Edinburgh Police hands and the
delegates were there in gayest
dresses and national costumes.
We were served a delicious tea
which featured ,Scottish fonds.
Scotland Day was another in-
teresting event. At every ACWW
conference one day is set aside
as the national. day of the host-
ess society, They provide some
form of entertainment showing
aspects of ehe country's national
characteristics in art and his-
tory. This was presented in a
pageant, "The Daughters of
Scotland,"
The mistress of ceremonies
presented women of many oc-
cupations from many parts of
Scotland, from the islands of
Shetland, from the mining areas
of central Scotland, from the
Highlands and from the fishing
villages.
One scene depicted The Auld
douse, another the Scots kitchen.
We saw the products of seafood,
grain, the kitchen garden and
meat. The housewife toldhow
these were combined to make
cockle leekie (soup), haggis,
brose, and partan pie (crab).
Then the girdle (we call it grid-
dle), the broth pot, the frying
pan and even the haggis appear-
ed onthe stage.
Another scene was a country
wedding. Genuine or. authentic
