Mrs. Paul Doig, presiding. There was
a splendid attendance of members
and visitors. The roll call was ans-

cleaning and several excellent ideas
were brought out. The motto "And
so is the whole round world, in every
way, Bound by gold chains about the
feet of God" was beautifully taken
by Mrs. Jas. F. Scott, and was a
worthy prelude to the talk given by
the guest speaker, the Rev. H. V.
Workman, who spoke on the Aims
and Meaning of the World Security
Conference at SanFrancisco. Mr.
Workman noted the vast difference
in the attitude of not only the dele-
gates at the conference but of the
peoples of the world, as compared
with twenty-five years ago after the
first Great lar,. when the slogan
seemed to be "Get as much for my-
self and my side as 'I possibly can.' The following accounts were pass -

WILL PROSECUTE FOR
DUMPING ON STREETS
The regular May meeting of the.
council was held on Monday evening
with alt members . present except
Councillor Reid. The highlight of
the short meeting was the disclosure
by Reeve J. F. Daly- that after the
town had gone to the expense of
cleaning up rubbish from a little
used street at the northeast corner
of the town, some person or .parsons
persist in dumping their old cans
and other refuse in the street instead
of using the town dump which has
been provided for the purpose. The
members of council expressed disap-
pointment at the complete lack of
civic pride' shown by the guilty per-
sons and promised an example would
be made of them if caught.

WINTHROP
The community was very touch
saddened by the news received on
Sunday afternoon of the sudden
death of the Rev. Mr. Chandler at
Parkhill. His heart had been giving
trouble for several years. He was
apparently well enough on Sunday
morning to conduct the service but
after coming home he lay down to
rest before setting out for Lieury,
his outside appointment, and passed
away before Ian, who was beside
him, could summon his mother. He
spent most of his ministry in Huron
with Fordwich, Walton and Kippen.
Before coming to Huron he was at
Kilsyth near Owen Sound, and after
leaving Walton he spent a year at
Guilds in Lambton. His heartiness
and energetic manner was very
much appreciated. The sympathy of
the whole community is with the wi-
dew and, children who are left to
