A splendid meeting sponsored 'by the 'Women's Missionary Society of Duff's United Church was held in the auditorium of the church on Fri- day evening. The Meeting opened with a song service in charge of J. H. 'Leonard, evangelistic singer, who is assisting Rev. Charles Cum- ming in special revival services. Mr. Leonard also rendered effective solos along the limes of missionary and ser- vice for Christ and humanity. "The Old :Rugged Cross" was sung as a trio by Miss Anne MIIcTaggart, John Fleming and Mr, Leonard. In the ab- sence of Mfrs. (Rev.) Cumming, the president of the Women's Missionary Society, Rev. C. Cumming introduced Miss Mitchell of Toronto, a returned missionary •and traveling secretary for the W.M.S. Miss Mitchell deliver- ed an anvpressive address. A few years ago Lloyd George was asked, while on a visit to Canada, what he thought of the missionary program. His. re- ply was, "If the great missionary pro- gram and enterprise faits, the rest of us may as well give 'up too and close our doors," but he stated "it can't. fail. Go ye therefore and make dis- ciples of all people." The speaker told a story of how hard men worked for the building of the church in Korea. The Koreans are loyal and faithful Christians and Jesus expects us to be His representatives. Those who are privileged to go to the foreign field are helping to gather them in just the same by giving their meney to this cause. Christ wants us to make our soul; attractive, that other -people will want to be like us. The spirit of Christ is needed in Canada today. What an opportunity we have here; 'Three mil - hon people have come to Canada since 1900, hoping and 'longing for sometbing better. T'hey heard of this land and •ca'me..-We .forget that God Taves' them just as He loves us. God has sent them among us that we might help then. A great "door has been opened. Are we going to accept t'hctn?" Scores .of lives are saved in the hos;pitals in the Western ,p'rovim.ces `and the .people realize it was Christ who died a through the mission hos- ' '! prtals and nurses. The Gospel is pee - seated to all who a ter n Canada. Miss Mit/ellen mentioned one instance when newcomers the ew o tete were welcomed to Ga - nada. One of the men :w'en't to see if a certain man who was reacting to them might be a Communist, but he ' discovered he was read'iiig from elle Book of 'M'ark. They said': "This is the 'land we have been teektng for." Miss Mitchell spent some tltne in the dried out area of, Saslaatchewaii last summer where there wasn't a blade of grass to be ,seen and there had been eta ramal 'for three years. She 'told of the 'misery and stiffening in this dis- trict andha 1 wthe 'bales, were appreci- •a!ted, The condlition of the world is ...such that it seams to cry "Do ,some - 'thews:" One thing you an'cl 1 can do.

Mr. Frank Dempsey was in 'Kitch- ener last week attending the funeral of the •late Mrs. Jos. Laurence, form- erly Miss Bridget •Jothnston of this place. She was 'married 50 pears ago to Mr. Laurance, who then conducted a shoe business in Dublin and. 'later moved to Kitchener and carried on in the same line of 'b'usine'ss. He prede- ceased her a few years ago. She was the last sairriving Member of the Johnston family, who moved in here 72 years age when the district was s^'id freest. Mr. and Mrs. 'Thos. MdKay were in London last week wisitiitg .relatives. Our school board, Messrs, 'George Bennewies and John Deitz and W. Manley, were in !Guelph on Saturday attending the educational convention, AIR FLIVVER. Long have aviation enthusiasts dreamed of an air flivver, a plane to sell for the price of an - inexpensive automobile, -Marked steps toward this goal have been taken but, still the price is around $1200 to $1500 for a workable plane. 'Expensive engines are the main problemsince the rest ofthe plane cart be made at relatively low cost even without mass production, Since the engine is the stumbling block, the natural thought is 'Why not use the mass-produced and highly efficient modern automobile motor?" In the past automobile' motors have been 'far too heavy for their power to put • in a plane. Bea two things are making their future use possible. One is that motors of a given weight are much more powerful than they used to be. The other is that better knowl- edge of aerodynamics make it possible to produce machines 01 a given, size having more' lift and therefore capable of carrying the extra weight of the motorcar engine. The designer of this new ship is none other than Mr. Frederick Kooth'oven of !Holland- whc recently e y announced the building of a ship twice the size of the DO -X. He states that the new ship is 25 feet 1 mg ' wish a wing -Spread of 3+1'% feet. A monoplane, it carries its motor in the fuselage behind the, cockpit. This placement cuts down dirt and poise and leaves the front of the machine available for big windows and there- fore good visibility ahead, a most de- sireble feature, Two propellers are used, driven from the •motor by chains, much as the original Wright machines, This permits a very ef- ficient propeller design, for gearing down is easy and slow turning, big pitch and efficient -propellers can therefore be used, the gain obtained this way ,probaihly ,offsetting to quite a degree the loss incurred in the double - Want and For IStale Ads, 3times 50c• chain drive. The only "out" about the THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 1932 Uos indicates that 'too early threshing is largely res'p'onsible for the injury and also unsuitable and poorly=achjusted threshers. Down in the Ottawa Val- lee' nothing like this ,h'as been report- ed and ilii. MdLeod attributes both the lack of damage and .generally large .returns per acre to the fact that red clover is never put through the thresher until winter weather has et in and the crop is thoroughly dry. Also he recommends ;that the job be done with a huller or with .= machine with a clover attachment. rating red .clover through an ordinary thresher is condemned as wasteful. THE OXFORD GROUP :Religion in the ,ball -room of a fash- ionable 'hotel, clothed in 'tuxedo coats and evening gowns, accompanied by bursts of laughter! It is startling, to say the least, but few of ehe thousands attending the meeting had any doubt 'about its sincerity and reality. 'What was earn more unusual was the ab- sence of hymns, prayers, scripture reading or other acoompanimeits of religion. One thing, however, Was there in evident manifestation that the multitudes were moved -and that was the spirit ol God. who 'could listen to Ole striking testimony of transformed lives without realizing that something' vital and dynamic . had entered the lives of the wihesses The Oxford Group movement has brought religion out of the cloister into the drawing room and social areas of life. It has stripped off the ;theological and eccle- siastical vestments and arrayed relig- ion in the garments of ordinary lite. It has *revealed religion as the, mos radiant force in humanexperieirt in- stead of the solemn, sombre, sad-en.d thing that most people have thought' it. Thereis a ring of !genuineness about this Groep •that cannot be de'uied. The hare got hold of something that will change 'the fare of the world. if it tan be multiplied in individual lives. What is the power that has wrought :this mighty change, that has turned wbrlduings into passionate pilgrims of the Way of Life? It is 'th:e old, o»•d power, the eternal, unchanging, all - sufficient grace bI God. Religion is a personal, vital experience -that is the rock foundation of the 'Movement iIt is no new doctrine bast it has been made real in the lives of the Group. It involves the surrender of the life to the will and purpose of God, It believes in the guidance .of 'God, the control of life by the Lire-G-rver. ]That has the right ring about it—there is hard common' sense in it and when a 'person has experienced that spiritual power in. his own life he is bound to share his experience with others. When one has found the way ought he not tell others exactly how- he found it and what it has meant to his ow -n life? This •movement 'begins with oneself —that is where anything aught to be- gin—but it can only find its 'full scope anddestiny when it reaches out and touches •others. Here is the secret 'for solving all our : problems. Get the indivifhu'al set right batore Gad, and how swiftly would our do- mestic, social national 'and inter- national problems be volved! Convert the individual and send him back to his family and tohis community t' witness there to the reality Of his 'own' changed life. That is the program of the 'Oxford:. Group. ILet- us not be too`con'cerned with the accidentals of one Movement, •vitt Matters of form and dress and place; .let us '.fasten ourattention upon its fundamental .principles of absolute t••+ne .v, orritr, unselfishness and love •for the ind'ivid'ual life, ;and then seek to, make it 'effective in all social re- lationships. IThis movement is in tthe final analysis spiritual, and strikes ,in- sistently upon a note , that has beer strangely lacking in our modern life= the presence of a Power that can ranseini she werld, if we wi'l bn' give :1 a chnese. The churches ouairt to weir -me tle Group, support and encourage it, for it may become the most power-ful env in parochial life. It 'knows no :fie- nom!inational` barriers, i•t, recognizes tto 'ecclesiastical wall., The, Move- ment is 'tot 'a system, ,nor an organi- zation, nor e seat—it is a'spirit, a way of life a sharing in, the deepest ex- periences of the could I,ts victories are .the evidences of its powers; its achiev'em'ents are the proofs. ,that re- ligion •e- lf i fit g o works. * * * * * * * * * * * NEWS AND INFORMATION * * FOR THE BUSY FARMER * * QFurnished by Ontario Depart- * Ment of Agriculture,) * * * * * * * * * * * * Threshing Red Clover.

'The grower of a good .com- modity should receive a. premium tfor the extra care and efficiency involved in .producing -a superior product. !Canadian 'farmers' or business men handling farm. products who are look- ing for, new markets . must ,beau in, mind that their products 'will meet competition from other areas and :per- chance other countries.
