ENGAGEMENT Hensall. o The Resolution Committee brought in the following resolution, whiali was moved by Mrs. George and sec- onded by Mrs. Mantle and carried- unanamously---Resolved that we,, the members of the Women's Missionary Society, of Exeter District, assembled in convention at Hensall Methodist church, on May 15th, 1924, to the number of three hundred, desire to expresS ourselves in favor of the con- tinuance and strict enforcement of the O.T.A. We believe this to be the best act ever placed upon the statute books of our province in relation to the liquor traffic andevse trust that nothing may be done to weaken its influence but rather that it may be strengthened.
