A. sprig from a Forsythia shrub was brought to the editor's desk on Tues- day, with several bright yellow bell- shaped flowers. These blooms usual- ly appear in the earliest spring before the leaves, but this branch had both leaves and flowers.—Listowet Banaer. Beet Had Long Root You've all seen beets, the common ordinary garden beet—but how many of us have seen the equal of one lairs.. James Harkness, Colross, pulled from - her garden? It was just an average beet with no unusual quality except the root. That important section of. the vegetable measured over a yard long, to be exact 3 feet S inches.iThe root tapered along it's length to end up no larger than a fine thread. How it held intact while being removed from the ground is miraculous—but it did.—Teeswater News.

He found no one in- jured or ill it the Laithwaite place and no one there had sent the call. Spdderily he remembered he had left his store door unlocked.. He also thought of $40 cash he had left in his register. • When he returned he found the cash missing. The telephone call was traced to a pay station, but that is the only clue police have to work on. , — Accepts Kincardine Call The congregation of Kincardine. Baptist church has extended a call to Rev. R. Lamb, of Leith, to become minister in succession to Rev. T. J. Hi Rich, now of Brownsburg, Quebec.

Wali&rton Band Gives Up Owing to the poor attendance at the weekly practice sessions, the yal- kerton band, which has been spons- ored by the local Post of the Canad- ian Legion for 'the past number of years, may be disbanded. The secre- tary, Bert Cartwright, is calling in all instruments, music and other equip meat and it appears that Walkerton will shortly be without the services of the brass band. Most of the reports of the Junior organizations showed enthusiastic Nvork being done in these departments, A pleasing solo, "Living for Jesus" was rendered by Mrs. Leslie Lake of Union Church„a very helpful featnre of this session was "What would also do in?" A number of problems were presented, •discussed by all and very ably summed. up by the Presbyterial President, Mrs. R. G. ;gay, In her remarks Mrs. Nay stressed our obligations when we take office, point- ing out that our W. M. S. is the van- guard of church workers striving to bring in the Kingdom of God. The all important subject of Christ- ian Stewardship was well presented by Mrs. J, C. Batton, Clinton, who said that we can judge how much our Mas- ter means to us by what we. give. She emphasized that how much we give- isn't as important as how much we have left, giving as an example the widow's mite. She further pointed out that as Christain Stewards it is our duty to see that what influence we exert is for good. Mrs. Ralph Batten of Elimyille, stressed the importance of Christain Literature at the present time in helps ing give us the proper perspective of the world to-day. Prayer led by Mrs. Jas. Michie of Belgrave, closed the session. Following an excellent dinner serv- ed by the St. Helens ladies, Mrs, J. A.

Miss Beeeroft pointed out that we are saying, "We must win the peace as well as the war," but that we will not finally win the peace nor build a new world order 'unless we build it in the name of Christ. In the press re- port o auxiliaries were urged to send in outstanding news -to be forwarded to the Missionary Monthly, Also anyone with ability to write articles is requested to send in her name and the subject she could write about as the Missionary Monthly is desirious of developing writers in our own com- munities. Miss Maud Wiltse of Clinton, the Treasurer, presented the financial re- port. An excellent introduction to our new Study, "The Church in my Com- munity" was given by Mrs. G. Howes of Wrcdieter. She showed how this study puts responsibility on every W. M. S,7 member. It is a challenge and action is imperative. We must liven up if we are going to keep our church the bulwark of the nation. Missionary Gave Fine Address The highlighat of the convention Was- the privilege cif having as our guest one of our 11•01.;t outstanding mission- aries, Miss Margaret Brown, Miss Brown spoke chiefly of the work of the Chrietain Literature Society of Chine. She has been with this Society whose headquarters were in Shanghai since 1929. She traced the amazing increase in the circulation of the liter- ature, Some time after the occupation by the Japanese they saw they must establish a depot in a safer place. They decided on Kunming at the Chinese end of the Burma Road, it looking entirely raft at that time. She told of what seemed insurmountable difficulties in getting this literature transferred. But in spite of everything, :including bombs, they got huge quant- ities moved, where the found art even greater demand for it as books were needed so desperately to keep up the morale. In the Camps Christ is being discovered through the simple litera- ture. In referring to atrocities com- mitted by the Japanese, the Chinese Christains adopt the attitude "Father Forgive," Mrs. -Andrew Gaunt of St. Helens, then favoured the gathering with a solo, "If •I Forget." . In Mrs. Nay's closing words she challenged the ladies to be big enough not to be angered by little aggravat- SAVL" IsAONfy ions, This convention which was filled with help and inspiration was closed by Rev.
