Edwards, Kowtoka, Again Chairman of Con- vention Committee (London Advertiser) On the ground. that the present temperanee situation has been in- volved in party politics, the delegates at the 12th annual meeting of the Women's Institutes of Western On- tario, decided to refrain from pass- ing any resolutions on the stand they should take in the coming election, owing to the fact that the Women's Institute as a whole, is nonpartisan. However, Mrs. Geo. Edwards, the president„ trusted that the women would meet the situation with due regard for their children and their homes. Insofar as the Wornon'e Institets is able, it is th r aim to greatly raise the moral . tandards of Canada in every respect. Yesterday, they put themselys on record as opposed to the prominence • given to books, papers and movies of obsence char- acter, and the prominence given to crimes. They also expressed them- selves as anxious to combat the drug evil by requesting the Department of Education to deal fully with the menace in the new text book on Health and Hygiene. They put them- selves on record as requesting that legislation he enacted for stricter oh- srvance of the Lord's Day. In regard to the present day pop- ular music, they put themselves on record a's desiring all institute mews - hers to use their influence to encour- age a higher ty,pe of music, both in their homes and in public, and pro- posed that institutes consider ways and means whereby the children in rural schools might be given system- atic training in vocal music. Elect Officers In their own sphere of activity they put themselves on record as asking exemption from the amuse- ment tax without making application for each event, since the institutes are organized to do community work and are advised to raise money for that puvpose. They also put them- selves on record as desirous of peti- tioning the Government to grant farmers' daughters equal franchise with farmers' sons.
