Exeter District W. Mr S.
Convention.
- The eleventh annual convention of
the W. M. S. of Exeter district, held
at Granton last week, was most suc-
cessful. Mrs. Marsh, the president,
presided. The morning session was
largely taken up with business.
At the afternoon session a question
drawer was conducted by Mrs. \Vitae,
of Lucan. Following this an interest-
ing address was given by Miss Pres-
ton, a returned missionary from Jap-
an. She emphasized the ,glue of con-
ventions in awakening and keeping
alive the missionary spirit in the
church. The great need at home was
for people to realize the gravity of the
missionary problem. She told of the
of the growth of Christianity since the
close of the war with Russia. The
door stood open as never before, and
the opportunity of the ages was now
before the Christian church as far as
the Orient was concerned.
At the evening session addresses
were given by Rev. McTavish, Rev.
Sperling, Rev. Powell, Rev. Abray
and Itev. Bartlett. Interspersed with
these were selections by the choir and
solos.
