HURON PRESBYTERIAL
Almost 400 Women from 14
Auxiliaries gathered in Wesley-
Willis Unitel Church, Clinton,
for .the 32nd annual meeting of
Huron Presbyterial W. 'M. S. of
the United Church of Canada,
on Wed, March 27th, 1957.
Both morning and afternoon
sessions ware conducted by .the
President, Mrs. W. McVittie,
Blyth. The theme "Christ in
Faith and Witness" was devel-
oped through opening worship
service, led by two vice-presi-
dents, Mrs. J. A. McGill and
Mrs, a Dennis in the morning
and Mrs. W. Love and Mrs. T.
Clark in the afternoon. Music
for the day was under the dir-
ection of the organist, Mrs. M.
R. 'Rennie, while during the af-
ternoon session 'Mrs. B. Sutter
and Mrs. W. Rolland sang a
'beautiful duet. During the day
greetings were received from
Mrs. Chas. Nelson, president of
the hostess auxiliary, Mrs. N.
'Reid, president of the Presby-
tery W. A., and Rev. G. Eagle,
chairman of Presbytery
There were 2290 .members of
the W.M.S. in Huron for 1956
a decrease of 18 members. The
treasurer reported that the al-
location for 1957 would be the
same, namely $21,900 an
amount which had been exceed-
ed in 1956 by more than a
thousand dollars! This surplus is
to be divided equally between
the 'Scholarship, Fund and the
Board of Information and Stew-
ardship, for use in providing
Christian radio and television
programmes in Canada. A .new
feature this year was a printed
report of the year's 'work as sub-
mitted by the department secre-
taries. 'These enabled every del-
egate to take home to her own
auxiliary, accurate facts and
figures as a helpful reference
and for further study ,by local
officers. It also allowed each
secretary to speak about her
hopes for the coming year, the
"Forward Look". These can only
be realized as each member first
concentrates on the "Upward
Look". Not one recruit for full
time service in the church has
came forward in the whole of
London !Conference during the
past year. The Literature Sec-
retary reviewed many interest-
ing and worthwhile books and
presented the book award to the
Crediton Auxiliary. The report
of the -Resolutions .Committee
was given by its chairman, Mrs.
C. E. Zurbrigg, Exeter.
The 'highlight of the after-
noon session was the address of
Miss Emma Palethorpe, retired
missionary from Korea. In clear,
concise language, she painted a
vivid word pioture of conditions
in Korea, which greatly increas-
ed her listeners interest in, and
sympathetic understanding for
this country which has suffered
more than any other from the
destruction of modern war-
fare. The division of the coun-
try at the 38th parallel leaves
the communists in control of
the wealthier North where all
the hydro electric power is con-
centrated. The 'poorer agricul-
tural south, lacks resources and
fuel of any type with which to
develop eleotric power. No pow-
er, no industry, no jobs. The
people exist in unbelievable ,po-
verty, living under .bridges, in
eaves or cardboard and tin huts.
80 per cent of the government's
budget is spent on defense,
leaving government 'officials
grossly underpaid, whioh causes
corruption and sliding moral
standards. Under such condi-
tions the Christian Church, hin-
dered by the lack of senior, ex-
perienced missionaries, strives
to serve. an the field of educa-
tion and medicine- muoh has
been done, (Christian broadcast-
ing stations and agricultural
centres are making wonderful
contributions,
"Christian Citizenship and
You" proved tobe a panel dis-
cussion, chaired by Mrs.. H.
Pollock, challenging all mem-
bers to practice their Christian-
ity in all phases of Citizenship.
An impressive memorial service
conducted by Mrs. C. Tavener,
honoured' those who, had passed
to higher service during the
year.
(Mrs. McVittie spoke of the
wonderful co-operation in the
Presbyterial and urged all mem-
bers to pray constantly for
strength to advance in our work.

The Voice Of Temperance
The Mother Motive • •
Liquor manufacturers are de-
finitely gut to capture the home.
'n ,beautiful full-page adver-
tisements one sees ,the mother
motive used skilfully to break
down• sales resistance. Not as
yet do they have mother drink-
ing. But She, the gracious host-
ess serves her guests, --beer,
wine, hard liquor 'perchance:
She probably gives kindly ad-
vice to youthful guests. "You
bad better be content with a
light wine, This sherry now. You
can't get drunk on sherry."
How wrong she is! .Even nat-
ural sherry is; high in alcoholic
content. But "fortified" sherry
is something else again. Sherry
(natural) has 16 degrees of al-
coholic content, (fortified) has
20. (Claret bas 10.5, champagne
11, port (natural) 16, (fortified)
22. Youth GAN get drunk on
sherry. Few people do, perhaps,
for it is usually taken in small
quantities. It would seem to be
an ideal "first drink" wine for
young people in that type of
home where mother serves bev-
erages to her guests.—Advt.
BLYTH CO-OP PLANS
OPEN HOUSE
Milk and cream producers in.
the area and their wives are in-
vited to an Open House at the
Blyth Co -Op cheese factory and
creamery. The (Blyth 'plant is
one of the most modern in West-
ern Ontario and was 'built in
1952 to replace the previous
plant that was destroyediby fire.
Proof that quality is the keyword
at the .Blyth plant is borne out
by the fact inthe recent Ont-
ario Creamery Association Con-
test, Blyth was fifth inthepro-
vince and first in Huron Coun-
ty
oun ty for high score butter. During,
the past year over 99% of the
cheese produced at Blyth grad-
ed one. Open House will be held
Wednesday, April 10, from 2
p.m. to 5 p.m. Producers' will
