Mise Lillian J. Clarke, of St. Helens,

points than those taken in the leesons
This may be done by tracing events

sons for it. Mr. Hume commended the
action of the U. S. government in for
bidding the use of aigrettes on hats,

Prof. McCready then spoke eloquent
ly on Huron Uounty's Rural Pro olem,
He showed that the population of this
county has decrelieed about 30,000 in
the last twenty five years and 7,311
from 1001 till 1911, East Huron has
lost, 15% of their homes in , these ten
years and Old Ontario lost97,124 in the
same time.
Counting the people in the suburbs
of the large cities, the natural increase
of births' over deaths and the immi-
greets to Ontario bound for rural por-
tions of the community, we find that
old Ontario has lost over 400,000 in her
1
rura population from 1901 to 1911.
