Yours till nixt wake, Timothy Hay, 50th ANNIVERSARY IS CELEBRATED Maitland Presbyterial W. M. S. Held Anniversary in Kincardine. 1884 - 1934. Mrs. W. Joseph Henderson Elected lst Vice President. .... On Tuesday of last week the Mait- land Presbyterial W. M. S. marked their fiftieth anniversary in Knox Church, Kincardine. It was fitting that the meeting should be held in Kincardine in that the first meeting was held in this town on July 8, 1884. Since the organization of the Presby- tery many changes have taken place and although times of .strife have been experienced the society has continued to flourish until now it is a widely known organization. Members were present from the fol- lowing centres which showed the in- terest which the ladies are taking in marking this important milestone: Teeswater, Ethel, Cranbrook, Wing - ham, Whitechurch, Lucknow, Kin - lough, Molesworth, Ashfield, Ripley, Dungannon, Brussels, Bluevale, Lang side, Eadies, South Kinloss and Kin- cardine. There were five charter members present having been in the societies for over fifty years. These were, Miss L. Baird, Lucknow; Mrs, M. C. Mc- Kenzie, Ashfield; Mrs. P. F. Link - later, Wingham; Mrs. J. Breckenridge and Mrs. William Bell, of Ripley. These latter two ladies were present- ed with life memberships during the afternoon service. Morning Session Following the opening hymn at the morning service the Lucknow Society led the Scripture message and prayer. Mrs. W. J. Morrison of Kincardine, Recording Secretary, read the minutes of the previous meeting which were adopted. Mrs. Morrison also gave an interesting report of the Provincial Annual meeting at Toronto earlier in the year. Reports of Mrs. Martin of Ripley and. Mrs. McDonald of Luck - now were also accepted. The treasur- er's report stated that there had been a decrease in givings last year, The Young People's Society of Lucknow met' its allocation. The Home Help- ers announced an increase in their members and in their giving by 10 per cent. Miss McCallum welcomed the soc- ieties to. Kincardine on behalf of the Kincardine society. Mrs. Alex, Strachan of Brussels who is Hon, President of the W.M,S. of Maitland. Presbytery, addressed the meeting telling of her appreciation of the work being done and urging that the;;menbers continue with • enthus- iastn, It was a pleasure for the members to have Mrs. McKerroll, of Toronto, present.

The 'hid- den nuthber was 3012., 1• 4111 work being done she stated that it cost 30 cents per minute to carry on missionary work, All societies should make it a point to work out what their contributions are paying for in min- utes of work. By doing this each soc- iety should own so many mintites of work. Rev. McDonald, of Lucknow, ex- tended greetings to the W.M.S. from the Presbytery. • Rev. T. D. McCullough spoke brief- ly, expressing his regrets at not being. able to attend all the -meetings but stated that from his past experience he was well acquainted with the won- derful on-d rful work being carried on by this organization. The Molesworth Society concluded the morning meeting by prayer. Luncheon was served in the base- ment of the church. Afternoon Session The afternoon session opened with the singing of the hymn after which the Devotional Period was taken by the Brussels Auxilia5'y. In her address as President of the Maitland Presbytery. W.M.S., Mrs. R. McWhinney of Dungannon . Raid tri:, bute to our forefathers who' were pioneers in this land. They did not stop when faced by hard and difficult problems but worked all the harder to make the thing they were striving for a success. Such is the duty of the W.M.S. It is a pioneer society and must not stop now, rather must we strive harder than we have in the past. Miss Marie Finlayson delighted the audience with a vocal solo. An important item of the program was the report of the Historical com- mittee. Miss J. A, -Mather, the con- vener, told of the early history of the annual meetings. "In following the history of the Presbyterial through the records we have been deeply im- pressed with a number of thoughts, Thoughts of thankftilness for the growth of the Presbyterial. Begin- ning with four auxiliaries at the first meeting, Societies began to spring up. here andthere until there was an aux- iliary in nearly every preaching .sta- tion." Mrs, J. R. McKay told the his- tory of the Women's Foreign Mission- ary Society front 1884 to 1914. At the time of organization four societies were representedat. the:. convention and was in charge of an/officer from Toronto, When a society was start- ed in, I:loran tart-ed.in.Irloran the addresses were given in Erigli,sh and Gaelic: Three mission- aries and two deaconesses have come from i'4 itlend Preebytery.r Speaking of the I4oine Midslb'niSo- ciety during the period of +1898,'ittt 1914 Miss McCallum told of the splen- did work done during the Klondike rush of 1897 when not only clothes but food and nurses, were sent to dis- tricts in distress, Four men were sent to the klonclike in the following year and these were shortly followed by supplies to care for the sick. Hospi- tal tents were started under the aus- pices of the Home Missions. During this time Dr. Perrie was one of the greatest workers. In 1914 the For- eign and Horne Societies were amal- gamated under the Women's Mission- ary Society and they took for their motto at this time "The World for Christ." The first annual convention under the amalgamation was held in Brussels. On the occasion of their fiftieth an- niversary Miss Annie McKinney pre- sented the Kincardine branch of the W. M. S. with a beautiful banner 'in memory of her Mother. The story of the W. M. S. for the years of 1914 to 1925 was given by Mrs. A. A. 5. Simpson of Kintail. Dur- ing this period the two branches of the societies were united under the heading of the W.M.S. At the 30th anniversary Mrs. Perrie was chosen as President. For the years 1925 to 1934 a most thorough history was given by Mrs. W. J. Henderson of Wingham. This was very well received as all details were easily recalled by those present at any of the conventions. Following this Miss Margaret Mc- Kay delighted the aduience with a vocal solo. The history of the mission band was given by Mrs. K. MacLean of Wing- ham. The mission band was organiz- ed in 1856 and at the ,present time there are 15 bands in this Presbytery with a total enrolment of 332. The Wingham branch had charge of the closing devotional period. The afternoon session concluded with the cutting of the birthday cake. The lighting of the . candles was in charge of Mrs. McKerroll of Toron- to, council representative at the Pres- byterial. Evening Session In the absence of Rev. T. D. Mc- Cullough the chair was occpuied by Rev. MacLean of Wingham. Follow- ing devotional exercises, Mrs. McKer- roll of Toronto gave a most interest- ing and instructive talk on Historical Events. This year marks the 70th an- niversary of W.M.S. work in Mont- real. Organization took place in To- ronto in 1870 and in 1877 there was one life member. At the time of or- ganization in Kincardine. there were 4000 members. In her remarks, Mrs. McKerroil recalled the dress and cus- toms of those members who attended, the society meeting 50 years ago. The difficulties with which the missionar- ies in the eighties were confronted, were also recalled. In conclusion the speaker told of the success with which missionaries are meeting in many lands and tangible evidence of the success was given in a letter from an Indian girl graduate of one of the mission schools, Mrs. McLean, Provincial Represen- tative of Toronto spoke on "The Fut- ure." This year the W. M .S. had pledged itself to pay off $25000 of the deficit and it was gratifyingthe response with which members were making. Following this interesting address the men's quartet entertained with a number. Greetings were received from Coun- cil, Provincial and mission workers. Especially of interest were the letters from overseas workers. Presbyterial Officers for 1934: Honorary President—Mrs. Alex. Strachan, Brussels; President—Mrs, L2.

Thousands of Canadians wishing to visit friends or relatives either in Eas- tern or Western Canada will benefit greatly from the announcement by C. P. Riddell, chairman of the Canadian Passenger Association that from June 10 to June 30 inclusive, a round-trip fare on both Canadian railways of one cent per mile will;, be .effective to Western Canada from all points east of and including Windsor, Sault Ste, Marie, Sudbury, Capreol and Coch- rane in Ontario, and from all stations in Quebec, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island and Nova Scotia. The cent -a -mile coach excursion tickets will; `be good to all points in Ontario' west of and including Port Arthur and Armstrong, and to allsta- tions in Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Al- berta and British Columbia. On the other hand an equal oppor- tunity is presented residents in West- ern Canada :by th•e announcement that cent -a -mile rates to 411 points in Eas- tern Canada will be placed on Sale June 8 to June 30. A very generous return limit of 45 days is granted on these excursion tickets, whichhowever, providesthat the going and returning journeys must be made over the same railway except where the interchangeability of tick- ets is permitted in the existing pool. zones. Stopovers will be allowed at Port Arthur, Armstrong and any point west thereof, going and returning on tickets issued in Eastern Canada and at Port Arthur, Armstrong and any point east going and returning on tic- kets issued in Western Canada. Market Quotations At Lightning Speed A new high Speed ' telegraphic ticker service developed by engineers of Canadian National Telegraphs enables brokers a thousand miles from the markets to receive quotations sooner than the man actually in the stock ex- change. Quotations are punched on a typewriter -like keyboard which are repeated simultaneously by machines installed in the broker's office, and of- ten before the attendant on the floor of the exchange can list the transac- tion on the notice board. The new ticker service, believed. to be the fast- est in the world, is in increasing de - man dand machines have been install- ed in broker's offices in every prov- ince of the Dominion.
