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 since they are in the other coup. ties as well as Huron and Perth. The young people under 21 are the special clientele of the boot- legger, 2, Sons and datightess of today are strongly influenced by the attitudes of their parents toward the consumption of alcoholic bev- erages. 4. No matter where drinking is done the drinker may go thence in a ear and cause an accident. • 5.

ENeR 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.
