Duff's Church W.M.S.—The open- ing meeting for the year was held at the home of Mrs. J. H, Hislop with the newly -elected president, Mrs. Campbell in the chair. The meeting was opened by singing hymn 571 fol- lowed by prayer by ' the president. The Scripture lesson from Phil. 4,1-9 was read by Mrs. Jno, McDonald, Mrs. Gardiner, Sr„ introduced the new study •book and spoke" -on the "Bible practise of Prayer," taking in- stances from the Old Testament of marvellous answers to prayer. She showed how prayer permeates the whole Bible, also is fundamentally important to the success of missions. Unless our efforts are backed by prayer they are without avail. Ail defeats in religious growth proceed from lack of prayer. Mrs. P. B. Gardiner took instances from the new Testament showing through Je- sus' teaching the need for constant. watchfulness and prayer on the part oi all true workers. Christ himself. was always in the atmosphere of prayer, It was his habit. We should follow in his steps. The current ev- ents were in charge of Mrs. Drager. in speaking of our responsibility as Christians she said that daring 1924 104 lives per :minute passed out into eternity, :Do we really believe in our hearts what we profess to believe with our lips That men and women•are• lost without Christ? Surely then 'if we hesitate. in , this divine .task that has !beers committed to us in pointing' the uncounted millions to the Lamb or God their blood will God require at our hands. Miss Knox; spoke briefly on the .World Missions Con- ference held at St. Catherines show- ing how the Gospel was spreading to the uttermost parts of the earth, while 'Mrs, J. McGavin spoke on the Christian Outlook in India".

Dundas.—Scarcely past the prime of life, William Al- bert Dundas passed away on Sat- urdey, January 16th, aged 60 years, 5 months and 14 days at, the Seaforth hospital, Mr. Dundas had never known what it was to be ill until about three days 'before his death, when a severe attack of quinsy de- veloped, It was found an operation was the only hope for his recovery and he was removed to the hospital at Seaforth where he passed away before the operation coeld be per- formed. The late Mr. Dundas was a life long resident of McKillop. 'be- ing born on Lot 17. Concession 12. son of the late John Dundas and Mrs. Dundas, Thirty-five years ago he was married to Miss Susanna Steen Boyd, daughter of Anthony and'Mar- garet Boyd, and had "'since lived on Lot 21, Concession 12. In his young day he was active in athtetiee and took a 'greet interest in r --'},alt, ss have alsn his sons. Resides his widow, four sons and a daughter sur- vive,• Armour. of Walton • Willie ant, 'GENERAL OBSERVATIONS BY W.H.T. On the 29th of last October, the people of Canada, by their votes, told Mr, MacKenzie King that they want- ed no more of his administration of Dominion affairs: Four years of `the worst adininistratlon' that 'Canada eve er had. Four years of 'Which part' was spent in doing nothing-,mecely'mark- ing time—part in trying to do some- thing, and making a blundering mesa of it, pi4f, in tinkering with elle tariff so as to make it work mote tei the advantage of our American, cousins than of the people of Canada; part'in bidding for political suppott"by vo't ing large sums of money for • addi- tional dock and elevator facilities in. ports where the present facilities are more than adequate, part supposedly at the behest of the big American coal interests, in blocking the bring- ing into Ontario and Quebec of Ah berta and Nova Scotia coal, eta, etc. Four years of this were enough for the people of Canada, and they did what they could by their votes to bring about a change. But Mr. King, despite the voice of the, people, •hangs on like a drowning man to a spar. What it is that makes Mr. King hang on with such tenacity we do not know. Surely it cannot be a. liking for the dignity, the emoluments and the spoils of office. However, even though he should be returned for Preece Albert it is not likely that,with his present small and precarious uta jority he will be able to retain power very long. Even meitbersof his own party cannot agree with his dilly- dallying policy, and his pro -American sentiments, So far his record will not redound to his credit on the pages of history. sea Following on the death of John R. Booth comes the announcement of the passing of another of Canada's veteran business and public men in the •person of Adam Brown, "the grand old man of Hamilton." If he had lived until next April he would have celebrated his one hendredth birthday. Until the end of his life he kept up his Interest in public and national affairs. A man of diversified t interests and of boundless aeflikies he has had a lifelong connection .with,,, nearly every good movement In the embitious City.

FROM TORONTO. • To the Editor of the News,— It is like writing a line or fwo home, sending a bif of news to the home paper. -There was a fail of snow here ten days ago but Saturday and Sun- day were very mild and today (Mon- day) it has been raining all day end the snow is all gone, which is a very good tiling althoughathe unemployed want snow and more snow as it gives them a job at good wages removing it from the streets.' ' A tragic affair which has. finished not so badly took place here recent= iy. The parents and some of the members of two families were out for a spin when their car was strudk by a railway train at a level crossing. Out of six in the car, all were ki,led except one little three-year-old girl, little Hilda Froud. When 'the train stopped Attorney -General Nickle, who was returning from Kingston, found the little girl all covered with blood and cinders. -He took her in his arms, carried her to. the train and never let her go until an hospital was reached, where it was found that her chin was broken and a gash in her face Which •required several stitches, Mr. Nickle got into com- munication with Sir Henry Thornton, the result being that the C.N.R. have consented through their management to pay her $25 a month until she reaches 17 years of age. She now re- sides with an uncle and aunt. There was a great deal of interest taken here in the doings at Ottawa last week. It would be' idle to pre- dict what the future will bring, but Forke, the Progressive leader,'1de; clares that if they don't carry out their pledges to 'his party, out they will go.

Kingsville, the son of Simon Wigle, who was the son of a U. E. Loyalist,•and the old homestead has never passed out .of the name of 'he Wigle family. Incidentally, we might relate that when a lad, having received his primary education at Kingsville, he had a very keen desire to qualify himself for the medical profession, and when he realized that -is mans rite' not meet with the ap- proval of his father, he decided to make his way himselfand hired with a farmer for a very small remunera- tion. however, his father under- standing his determination to earry out his ideal, induced him to reliant home and he was sent to Kamoka ,to attend a Grammar School. From there he entered McGill University, and was, a college chum of the late Dr. W. Osler, the world's greatest physician. Following, his graduation at McGill in 1875 he practised medi- cine in Essex Centre for about six months. At that time settlers were becoming more numerous here, and they decided to advertise for. a doc- tor. He applied and was accepted, d and during the fifty years of resid- ence here, has been a most successful practitioner. Just here we may say that Mr. B. B. Miller was at that time Postmaster of Wiarton. "The deceased gentleman was a very public-spirited man in leis earlier life, and devoted considerable time to municipal matters and furthering the interests of the community. He will be remembered as one of Albemarle's former Reeves, in which capacity he served faithfully for two years. He also served on the Wiarton Public School Board and also on the Coun- cil Board. He was Reeve of the Town in 1887 and 1888, and it was during his term of office that the present system' of waterworks had its origin. In the meantime, Wiarton was grow- ing rapidly, and its numerous in- dustries coled,.,, with • its increased papulation was ' developing into' a thriving town, and it was largely due to, the co-operation oil his part. that Wiarton was in that year incorpor- ated as, a, town, and the late Dr. Wigle anMr. B.

Later, the doctor was elected to the High School Board, on which he served for 'ten years, and was also Chairman of that Board for two years, consecu- tively. , As ,Medical Health Officer, he had served the Twp of'Atbemarle for thirty-five years, which office'he held up to the time of his death, In pol- itics, -he was a life-long Conservative, rend a ,was in 'whom his . co- weekers confided as' one who pos- sessed a ,weatth of lonowledge in mat- ers political;„ , He , always' took an etive part even, in tie recent,Federal mnaign; h:' being President of•; the neat C..opservetive Asksociation, and in him, his meter. loses one of their most faithful ,and energetic supports ers in this dis't'rict.
