Miss

111fiss Wellwood, of Chip, Principal,
Speaker at Conference of United
Church Women
(Gaderich Star)
The W1r,M.s, Conference et the west
section of Huron Presbytery- of the
United Church was held at Dungan-
non on Wednesday, the 21st and was
largely att ndv3, Mrs. W. J, Andrew,
of Godericb, presided and Mrs.
George Harris,, of Dungannon, was
appointed secretary.
After the opening period of song,
prayer and Scripture reading,some
necessary committees were appointed
and then came the roll call of Bands
and Circles, responded to by repre-
sentative's who placed special empha-
sis un methods and plans rather than
on number of members and amounts
raised. Some of the leaders reported
plans already made for the fall and
winter tvork in Bible study and mise
sionary topics; several reported that
stress was being laid, on raising funds
by voluntary gifts offerings.
After the Circle and Band leaders
had retired to hold separate confer-
ences for an hour, the, roll call of
auxiliaries was held and most encour-
aging and helpful reports were given.
Mrs. Orme, of Crediton, called the
.attentionof the delegates to the lit-
erature table, and spoke briefly of
books and leaflets that would prove
helpful in the work of the different
missionary organizations.
Miss Hunte, of Gpderich, gave an
address on the missionary work for
girls and young „Women, She urged
that the leaders of young people
stress giving systematically, propor-
tionally, and sympathetically.
Miss Rowe, of Exeter, addressed
the conference on the work 'of the
Bands, speaking.:af the importance of
arousing interest in missions among
the boys and girls, and recommend-
ing, as an aid in this line, the use
The a of Palm B ranch
Dinnerwas served in the basement
,by the ladies of the Dungannon aux
illiary. After full justice had been
done to the good things provided ,an
address of welcome was made by Mrs.
(Rev.) J. A. Walker, of Dungannon,
and responded to by Mrs. E. V. Law-
son, of r'eeburn. .•
The afternoon''session was opened
with devotional exercises by members
of the Auburn and Blyth auxiliaries,
The pastor of Dungannon church,
Rev. J. A. Walker, made a 'brief but
happy address, declaring that the men
of the church needed a- society 'like.
the` W.M.S. because of its educational
value along the line of missions.
The Presbyterial treasurer, Mrs.
Gardiner, of. Blyth, could not be pres-
ent, • but sent a letter reporting a
great increase in the amounts receiv-
ed during the first quarter of this
church year, over those of the same
period in 1926.
iVLrs. (Dr.) Wilford, whose husband
is still on .the field in Wrest China,
brought to the conference a most en-
couraging message. A letter, received
recently' from Dr. Wilford spoke 6f a
journey of fourteen days among sev-
eral of the mission stations of the
church, during which time he had
heard not one unkind word from the
Chinese people. He reported that in
every station where Chinese had been
leftin charge, nothing had gone
wrong, nor had the buildings car
equipment been damaged in anyway.
On the other hand, where the build-
ings had been closed, they had been
seized by the `soldiers. The'Chinese
Christians, Dr. Wilford wrote,; ,,,had
proved themselves worthy. ;
A quartette of ladies from Blyth
sang very pleasingly, "Where hast
thou reaped today?"
The principal speaker of the day
was Miss Caroline Weliwood, of
China, who gave a deeply interesting
and inspiring talk on present 'condi-
tions in that land. Never before, :he
said, had there been waged such a
struggle between• the forces of evil
and the forces' of righteousness. In
this struggle, she said, the Chinese.
have suffered more than the foreign-
ers. She spoke, of the influence of
Russia and the insistence -of Borodin,
that nationalism could not flourish. in
China until they got rid of the for-•
eigner and of Christianity. She gave
instances of Chinese faithfulness and
steadfastness in most trying circum-
stances and, declared that the work
among that people was well worth
while.
The question, drawer was ably ban-
died by Mrs. %Lundy, of Nile, who
also spoke: . of theo new study book
for auxiliaries. The closing words of
the conference were spoken by 1\ii8s

Wingham curlers 'were forced to

They secured the Bell property on

It is the intention., to use the old.

to put in a glass partition in' the rear:
so members and spectators may
watch the sport under comfortable
conditions. Messrs. A. M. Ciasi'ford,
D. 'Rae, Harry Diamond and ,Wil.liani:

DEANERY S. S. ASSOCIATION
The Sunday School Association of
Huron Deanery held its annual meet-
ing in St. eGorge's Parish hall on
Tuesday evening, the various parishes
of the Deanery being welt' represent-
ed. After the opening exercises Rev.
T3: W. ,Snell, B.A., of Stratford, gave
an interesting and helpful talk on
""Better -trained Sunday School Teach
eds, stressing the need of deeper. -
reading and recommending to all the
course of study provided by the
church. The lively •discussion which
followed showed the interest taken in
the speaker's remarks, Rev, Walter

MEMORIAL GATES FOR AGRI-
CtTLTU',AtI., PARK
For a long time interested people
in Turnberry township', have quetly
but persistently advocated some suit-
able' memorial to those from the
township„wlto gave their all on Flan-
ders fileid,s. Among the many sugges-
tions made, perhaps the most .accept-'
able and quite, as appropriate, is the
erection of memorial gates at the
entrance of Turnberry Agricultural
Society park, in Wingham town plot,
The ^situation is ideal for such a me-
morial; which would be seen By many
driving through the town to the west,
as Well as an ever present remem-
brance to- the people.: locally of the
great sacrifice our peace and 'content-
nlent cost.
Lt cart easily be understood that
Turnberry Agricultural Society would
offer no objections to the project,
even, though it meant the securing of
an extra piece of land to place the
gates in a direct line with the road
leading to the park from the town.
And it is equally acceptable to other
orgariiaations which have been active
in' raising fonds for sone such rne-
morial. Tt is suggested to erect two
large stone pillars for the main en-.
trance With two smaller ones on
each side, the cost • of which might
well be 'met by the combined 'efforts
of the township and. the Agricultural
Society; while some other organiza-
tions might be willing to assume the
cost of a bronze tablet bearing --the
names of the fallen heroes. There
are •foto municipalities in this land to-
day whish have not some memorial,
and• the above suggestion seems'air
appropriate one when, viewed from
evei•y'angle. It is located in the mun-
icipality in 'a fairly • central point,
where the travelling 'public would
have' the best opportunity of seeing'
it. Then it, would add a beautifying
finish to a property that is essential-
ly of personal interest to every res-
ident in the township. Cannot ;the
project,, so. long. considered by the
Cauncil, Agrictilturai Society, Wont
en's Institute, and private citizens,; be
brought to a successful issue, and
practical steps taken to have the Me-
morial built next spring and the form-
al dedication and opening made the
occasion of a real gathering on some
public holiday early next year?
