A meeting of the livestock men of the county was held in the agricultur- al office, Clinton, on Saturday after- noon, April 2Sth, at which a County Livestock Improvement Association was formed. About seventy livestock men and other interested parties were present and listened to a very inter- esting address by R. W. Wade, Dir- ector of the Ontario Livestock branch. Mr. Wade answered a numlber of questions relative, to the different phases of the livestock industry and also explained the conditions on which the 20 per cent. bonuses were paid to farmers who purchase a ptire- bred bull for the first time. One director was appointed for each of the sixteen townships' and an exe- cutive body of five chosen from among the sixteen directors, The following constitute the execu- tive: President, Hugh Hill, Goderich; Vice Pres„ Isaac Wright, Wingham; Sec.-Treas., Ian McLeod, Clinton; Directors ('Saudi Huron Wm. Oes.. tricher,, Crediton; (North Huron) Ol- iver Turnbull, Brussels. The directors for each township are as foliows: Ashifield, John Parrish; Colborne, Hugh Hill; Goderich, Herb. Cox;' Grey, Oliver Turnbull; Hay, L. H. Rader; Hawick, R. J. Sanderson; Hullett, Howard Armstrong; McKil- lop, Gordon- McGavin; Morris, W. Henderson; _Stanley, Clifford ICeyes; Stephen, W.m, Oestricher; Tucker- smith, Melvin Crich; TurnIberry, Is- aac Wright; Usbotne, E. J. Pym; East Wawanosh„ Melvin Taylor; West Wawanosh, F. G. Todd. A notion• was passed at the meet- ing to the effect that any farmer in the county who had purchased a pure- bred sire on or after January lst, 1931, would be eligible for the 20 per cent, bonus, providing such animal passed official inspection. Any far- mers who would be in line for this bonus should get in touch at once with their township director or write direct to the secretary, Ian. McLeod, Dept. of Agriculture,' Clinton. It is hoped that through the med- iunt of the Livestock Improvment Association, some 'good 'work may be a'cdomplis'hed in the improvement: of livestock and the Associatilon will appreciate the support and co-o.pera- tion of all livestock hien and other interested men in the county.

Mac- kay, of Formoosa, While in town Mr. Mackay was the guest of his, cousins, Or: Charles Mackay and Miss Minnie Mackay HURON PRESBYTERIAL should be in our young women. They raised $1,545,99, Fifth Annual Meeting Held .in the The Baby Band report by Mrs. Bremner showed 325 members and having sent 870.68. There are 19 Baby Bands organized, Many interesting' items were pre- seuted by Mrs. Scobie on the, Mis- sion is •sion Band work. Two bands were forced to inactivity because of the lack of a leader. We are hoping andpray- ing that' God.will call forth one to su- perintend in each.of these fields. Two, new groups have organized, one in Ontario street, . Clinton, and one in Cavan Church, Winthrop, on April 18th, Egmondville' has both girls and boys groups meeting separ- ately, except on special occasions, Seaforth is laying plans at present to organize a boys' Band. Goderich, North street, have divided their Band into three groups.

Total ,membership, 901, in 33 Bands, Our greatest advance is the World Friends Column; sub- scribers increased from 167 to 327. Considerable- increase in Easter and Autumn thankoffering which amount- ed to $223.50, Total amount sent $1,- 277:81. We want to adopt the slogan of the annual Board of a ten per cent. increase in every department. Mrs. Davidson, Wingham, secretary, said there was an increase of two groups. There are 132 mem- bers raising $85.00 for missions, an in- crease of $24.75. The main object'of the CG.I.T. program is not money, but the question of the snore abundant life as exemplified in Christ' Jesus. After the devotional exercises after the noon hour, Rev. Mr. Moorhouse brought greetings from the Presby- tery. Miss Lawrence, Press Secretary. reported having a secretary in each auxiliary but two, which was fine. She thanked the secretaries and mem- bers for their co-operation and made special mention that the Press be thanked for giving us space to report our sessions.' She stated power, re- sponsibility and a great opportunity belong to the press secretaries. Long shall be remembered the Old Mother Goose Rhymes given by the Hensall Mission Band. It was thor- oughly enjoyed by all. The speaker of the day was Mrs. R, S. Longley of West China, the largest mission field in the world, and also the largest body;cj people to be ministered to. She asked the ques- tion, "Does it Pay ?" to give the re- ligion of Jesus Christ to others. She gave living examples .of Chinese Christians who were bearing respon; sibility and living such consecrated unselfish lives that snakes us almost ashamed of our inactivity. She told of a rich woman who donned the dress of the middle classes, rode in a simple chair and carried with her, her Bible to the tribes in the north country to teach them the gospel story. Have you a spiritual Christ? Depression and un- rest, in Canada is because men have not lived up to that standard of Jesus Christ andbe hall s herepeace t no p o until the world has learned to work out that 13th chapter of 1st 'Corinth- ians.

United Church, 'Tues•day, April 28th, 1931. With the weather threatening, yet with unddunted;'spirit the women from North, South, .East and West assembl- ed in the United Church, • Hensel]. The auditorium by 10 o'clock ..was Well filled and for the ,afternoon ses- sion there wasnot a vacant seat, Mrs. Lane, as vice president, was in the chair. After the surging of 'the Doxology and invocation by Mrs. Lane, the devotional exercises were conducted by Mrs. Fowler, reading Isa 6:1-8, and Mrs. Anthony leading in prayer. Mrs. Sinclair extended a hearty wel- come which was aptly responded to by Mrs. Goudy, Safeni. Mrs. Greer was appointed recording secretary pro tens in the absence of Miss A, E. Consitt. Finance committee appointed was Mrs. Moorhouse, Exeter, Mrs. Greer, 'Wingham; Mrs. McKenzie, Egnrondville; Mrs. Graham, Goder- ich, Mrs. Venner, Clinton. Resolu- tion committee—Mrs..

We :feel this is a very gratify- ing report. Our women are develop- ing a deeper sense of their responsibil- ity to the missionary work. They are becoming more systematic, both in study and meeting their financial ob- ligations. Egmondviile, Hohisesville and Victoria' St., 'Goderich, all report increases because of the use of the envelope system, Seaforth, North Side Church,_ is the only auxiliary which sends in its quarter's allocation quarterly. Let us increase our mem- bership by 10 per cent. She gave tis four suggestions: (1) Use envelopes; (2) Send in quarterly amount for each quarter; (3) Get new members early in year; (4) Conte to the meeting in prayer. Have Mere faith in ourselves, in our fellowman and in God. Then we will measure up better. Let• us be true stewards giving of our time and prayer so that we know we have' gi- ven.

YES don't go wrong all at once. Gradually little faults creep in, faults that may later cause serious harm to you.
