'Winghan•1 attended the fall Dean- ery meeting held in Trinity Cliureh, Bayfield, 'on Wednesday, October 24th, Miss Dorothy Parks, of Seaforth, the Deanery president, conducted the 'worship service. Mrs. Gardner of Bayfield extended a very gracious welcome to the members and the business proceed- ed with Mrs. Higgins, secretary- treasurer giving her report on the business of the previous meeting and the financial stateineiit. Mrs, Epps of Clinton read a letter from Mrs. Henry Thompson, extending thanks to the branches of the W.A. in Huron ,Deanezty :for acting on her suggestion that ,trees be planted around the camp . at Bayfield. There is need of camp extension as last year there were 756 campers and some applications had to be, refused owing to lack of accommodation. A leadership training course for G.A. workers was outlined by Mrs. Wilson of Goderieh, who stressed the great influence G.A. work is having on the life of our girls. Mrs. Taylor, wife of the rector of St, George's Church, Godorieh, introduced the guest speaker, Miss Lilies Powell, Reg. N., who before the war was superintendent of nurses-' at New Life San., Obuse, Japan. The ,first difficulty was to find a site for the San owing to the very great prejudice about con- tact with T.B. patients. There is in Japan; great' indifference to human suffering and many, times relatives refused to allow advanced cases to enter the San as paying patients. In 1940 all missionaries were sent home •and the San was turned ever to the Japanese cchul'ch. After the war the Canadian missionaries went back only as guests of the over to the Japanese church. After help from the Anglican church, in. Canada and U.S., the san was reno- vated and where previously • there was no central kitchen and rela- tives went in and cooked food and Washed linen for patients, all this was changed. Modern equipment 'fwas installed and all cooking and laundry done by a resident staff. When she went back in 1947, they took many supplies to etluip the San and also a ton of food so they would not eneroach on the very short supply of food for the native Japanese. In 1900 fire destroyed the main building arid again the Canud laac church has been helpful in re- building, ..„ Most of the staff at. the San are Christians and about one-half of the patients beoorne °Christians. Although less than one per Cent of the Japanese population of one hundred million lire Christians, yet the Japanese govethntent rceog- niyes Christianity on the same basis as :its native relighohs of Buddhisin and Shietoism. Mrs, Powell was warinly thanked by Mts. Jewell of Brussels. The ladies Were invited to the parish hall Where afternoon tea was sere. ed and a• very pleasant social hour Was spent.
