MEETING HELD ON FRIDAY Mr, James McIlrath of Whitechurch • Was Guest Speaker 1•11.111•1•••••••••• The regular meeting of the W,C.T. U. was held on Friday, November 8, 1946, at the home of Mrs. John Fal- coner, with an attendance of 22. The President, Mrs. Cosens, occupied the chair, Time theme of the meeting might be sununed up in the following, "Life has but two ends, and time one end has been used, Take care of time other." The scripture taken from Hebrews 11 was read by Mrs. John Falconer, "0 Man of Galilee was beautifully sung By Capt. Agar of the local Salva- tion Army Corps. Mrs. Frank Collar led in prayer. Mrs. Johnston read a paper telling of the recent visit of Dr. Jellinek to Toronto. Dr. Jenninek is a noted scientist, and is director of the Yale School of Alcoholic Studies. At this year's session there were 180 students, six of them from Canada, and thirty of them were members of the Alcoholic Anonymous. The pur- pose of the school is an attempt to place before the student body the find- ings of scientific research in alcoholic studies concerned with the problems of alcohol and alcoholism as they affect the individual and society. A short paper was read entitled "On Cocktail bars". Like so many slang expressions, the word cocktail origin- ated in the Army about th'ree centur- ies ago, used as ,a term of reproach, to describe a coward. The main meaning of "cocktail" however, according to Partridge's English dicitionary (1936) is that of "harlot" or "prostitute". Thus, according to this definition, Premier Drew's "Cocktail lounges" would strictly describe lounges frequ- ented by harlots and prostitutes. De- butantes and female members of Ont- ario's smart set might do well to re- member this unpleasing origin of time word. The speaker of time afternoon was, Mr. Jas. Mcllrath, a retired Inspector of Police of Whitechurch. Mr. MeIl- rath began his duties as a police officer in Toronto in 1912 when thei4 were the open bars. Liquor was easily ob- tained, .and many wage earnem spent their pay envelopes at time bar- room rather than taking it home for the upkeep of the family. In 1916, the Ontario Temperance Act came into be- ing. There were still many ills to con- tend with, among them, the bootleg- legger. The further change, was time beverage rooms of jody, which have resulted in a great increase of women drinkers. Mr. ,McIlrath related some of his experiences during his 30 years with time police force in Toronto, and stated, that in the case of time worst crimes, such as the Ruth Taylor case, (on which he worked) liquor has been consumed. In answering a question, it was stated that being under the in- fluence of liquor or a drug is no excuse if a crime is committed. The roll call was answered by a verse of scripture containing the word, "faith", A number of members expect to at- tend the Temperance Federation Con- vention in Clinton on Tuesday, Nov. 12.

LOCAL INSTITUTE VERSUS A MERE MAN , This reporter for the Women's Institute would like to take issue with that immortal (almost) Scottish bard, will, said "Oh would the god's the gift to gie us, to see ourselves as others see us". We wish the same dieties -would give others the power to see us as we tee 'ourselves. Our usual seren- ity was much perturbed the other clay! It all came about in this wise, We overheard a much respected gentleman .(he's Scotch too) of this town say, "and the wife's gone to an, Institute meeting. That's one 'place I don't see why she wants to go." What came be- fore we don't know, and what came after we certainly don't know. We moved on. That was enough. We 'hap- pen to know that that gentleman? talc- -es The Advance-;Times and we present the following for his deep concentra- tion. We have taken to our bosom more needy, worthwhile movements than -any other similar society of which we know. We shall inumerate but Charity begins at home: Very well, The slogan of all Institutes is For Home and Country. A part of each meeting is devoted to ,developing mentally those present as an end to which we have some perfectly splendid papers read to us, or have addresses given; .Some of them are Citizenship, Social Welfare, Home Economics and His- torical Research. A part of each meeting is devoted also to being good neighbours to those less fortunate. My friend will recall our recent tag day for the Blind. Every cent of the money raised that day went to help the Blind. Ask the Red Cross and the local hospital if he would know what we have done for those societies, 'Our big card parties don't just happen. But each meeting we do repeat in un- ison the only prayer ever given to all Mankind. We do avoid discussions which only rancour and destroy friend. -ship. Time is given freely, no reward is asked, em cept the glow of feeling that it is More blessed to give than to re- ceive. We are too busy to gossip or even flap our ears to gather in the news, We don't even stand on street corners discussing the doings of our husbands. Forgive us for lauding OWN- -selves, but we feel we must justify our world-wide institution, (Sotnethnes -called a World University) which -opens every meeting with these words. A goodly thing it is to meet In friendship's circle bright; Where nothing strains the pleasure Or dims the radiant light, Sweet, No unkind words our lips shall pass, No envy sour the mind; But each shall seek the common weal, The good of all Mankind.

SIXTH LINE FORUM •••••••••••I••••••I On November 11th the 6th Line Farm Forum met at the home of Hel- ford Cook with 22 present, There was an interesting discussion on Improve- ment of Farm Homes. They feel that shortages of help and materials were the main reasons why, more of this work has not been done. All were go- ing to try to improve their homes and surroundings as much as possible and hope for a spirit of co-operation rath- er than competition. Next meeting will be held on November 18th at the home of Stanley Cook, Suitable Bill had found a new pet name for his wife. He called her "My Cherub" so often that at last time lady became suspicious and asked why he used that particular form of endearment. Bill looked rather uficortifottable for a moment, and then decided to put a brave face on it.

Workers in other fields whose income varies periodically-will also find-bene- fit in the new plan. "The Canada Savings Bond was of- fered as a convenient facility for then investment of peacetime savings. When the terms were announced, no date was sat for the termination of the offering.. A restriction of sales to a limited per- iod would not be fully consistent with the principle of time offering. Never- theless, some initial period of sales act- ivity seemed desirable in order to in- troduce the new security to the pub- lic, and to prove the degree of accept- ance before commitment to a more ex- tended programme." "It now being certain that the Can- ada Savings Bond was correctly con-, ceived to meet widespread demand, I wish to announce that it will continue. to be available until further notice through banks, authorized investment dealers, stock brokers and trust or loan companies. This decision will enable some to invest later who are not able to do so at present. While I do not expect the number to be great, the fac- ilities can be withdrawn at any time demand does not appear to justify them."

Nimmo, who read the responsive Psalm, and Rev, Jack Jam- es delivered the address, basing his re- marks on the text, "Greater love bath no man than this, than a man lay down his life for a friend".
