London, Ontario featured many varied Items, Mrs, Eben Weigand presented an interesting demonstration on behalf of the Dashwood WI on how to make "organdy" candles. In other business, Mrs. James Armstrong, Brussels was in- stalled as the new district secretary. This post has been held by Mrs, Garnet Hicks, Exeter for the past four years. New auditors, Mrs. Harold Wallace and Mrs. Wm. Hum- phries, were also chosen. Other entertainment was provided by a costumed band from the Elimville WI, eomposed of Mrs, Philip Johns, Ruth Skinner, Mrs, Gilbert Johns, Mrs, Howard Pym, Mrs. Gwen Coward and Mrs. Floyd Cooper Welcome remarks were delivered to the group from Miss Molly McGhee, representing Centralia College and Mrs. Michael Connolly on behalf of Kippen WI, hostesses for the rally.

She worked in a Negretto village with the main emphasis on teaching, everything from the alphabet to homemaking skills, Miss Whyte has now entered OCE teachers college in Toronto. Several interesting diplays were set up, with one of the most unusual being a button display, commented on by Mrs. Leonard Prang on behalf of the Zurich WI, Mrs. Prang has about 3,500 buttons, many of unusual con- truction or design and many others of historical significance. She has been collecting buttons for about four years, but has stepped up her interest recently and has collected more than 1,000 button's since June. Mrs. William Dougall com- mented on the Hurondale WI's arts and crafts display which tative of the CA$ froM Goderich attended the rally, explained that the CAS Child Welfare Act has been revised and that many things have been added to it. The ladies questioned Mr. Shanahre, however, as to why they were not informed of the CAS meetings, They seemed to feel that there was a distinct lack of communication between themselves and the CAS. Mr, Shanahan questioned the possiblity of using $500 qut of the $2,100 to outfit a family therapy room in the new addition to the assessment building in Goderich; and an additional $200 for use for literature and film rental. The ladies decided, however, that they would like their sizable contribution to be used for its originally intended purpose. In other business, the WI members decided to send a petition to Premier Wm. Davis and Hon. John White concerning regional government, In short, the petition states they "are in favor of keeping Huron County as a unit," They feel that "Huron County, with its planning boards (should) be allowed to make the decision for Huron County" and they asked the provincial government "to not alter the existing structure of local government" in the county. Almost 200 WI members at- tended the rally. One of the highlights was a presentation of the annual $100 scholarship cheque and certificate to Mrs, J. Hasty, RR 1, Dungannon on behalf of her daughter Irene. County home economist Jane Pengilley presented the award which is made annually to a deserving 4-H homemaking club member to help further her education. Miss Hasty has en- tered nursing.

Q. 0217 Mrs. Reg, Savary, Kirkton was the guest speaker at a meeting of the Christian Womens' Club when it commenced its new season Friday. Talking to the women who meet once a month at the Anglican parish hall, Mrs. Savory, with humor and pathos told of her years in Japan as the wife of a missionary, She and her husband first went to Japan in 1936 but had to leave four years later due to the war, During wartime they ministered to the Canadian Japanese who were transported from the west coast to other locations. In 1952 they again returned to Japan and took up their work there for another ten years. Although Christians are a small minority group in Japan, Mrs. Savary pointed out that Christianity had only been in- troduced to that country 100 years ago, "Perhaps we expect things to happen too quickly," she said. The speaker urged the women to remember the small groups of Christians in Japan and in other parts of the world in their prayers, and said, "We sometimes forget that we are linked to these people by our common faith," Mrs, Vange Warren was chairman for the meeting and Mrs. Shirley Luther led the sing= song,
