Life --in ,Chile, South America, was described by Harry Ball, Clin- ten, at the regular meeting of the Trinity Club, held last Tuesday evening, in the Hayfield Parish Hall. The president, Mrs. Ross Mid- dleton presided for the devotional period. The meeting was opened with the singing of a hymn, fol- lowed with prayer by Mrs. J. K. Hovey. Mrs. LeRoy Path read the Scripture. After words of welcome, intro- ductions, and all routine business had been; dealt with, the .program convener, Mrs. R. S. Roddick, in- troduced -the guest speaker, Harry Ball, of Ball-Macaulay Limited, Clinton. Mrs. Roddick mentioned that Mr, Ball, a geologist, had been a member of the first class in.. that course to graduate from the University of Western Ontar- io. After graduationahe had gone to Northern. Ontario for some time before leaving for Chile; then he had enlisted in the Canadian Army 'and completed the cycle by going into business in his home town of Clinton. In his opening remarks, Mr. Ball said that as a schoolboy, he had always dreamed of going to South America some day. He was in- trigued by the Incas. So when he saw an advertisement for a geol- ogist he applied for the 'position. He spent the summer in Northern Ontario not receiving any mail. When he came back to civilization, a big brown envelope which had travelled all over the north all summer was waiting for him. On opening it, he was delighted to find that he had been accepted, and proceeded at once to leave for New 'York. Mr. Ball sailed from New York via the Panama Canal. (An in- teresting note 'about the latter is that it runs north and south, and not east and West as might be im- agined.) The geopraphy of Chile is un- ique in that the country is long and narrow. From the tropics to, the Antarctic, it is approximately 3,000 miles, and the width approx- imately 50 miles from the Pacific to the peaks of the Andes. An interesting feature' is the Humboldt. current which is the up- welling of the cold water from the depths of the Pacific, and the southeast trade winds which par- allel the coast, causing the Antac- ama desert. One could sail for days and all one would see would be sea birds in huge numbers along the coast, flying in one direction, apparently following the fish. The current would change and they would fly in the opposite direct- idn. The guano islands off the desert cepted. Dr. Moffatt sent $5 to the WMS for his wife, who' is seriously ill in Victoria Hospital, London. asking the society for their prayers, Mrs. Robert Taylor and Mrs. Gordon Coleman on behalf of the WMS and WA presented Mrs. El- mer Webster with a gift. Mrs. Pitt then took a chapter from the Study Book, "Indians in British Columbia," She was' assis- ted by Mrs. Robert Stirling, Mrs. Robert Taylor and Mrs. Fred Mc- ayrnont. A reading was given by 'Sirs. William IVIcAsh. Mrs. Pitt closed the meeting with prayer, Lunch was setved by the Front Road West grottp. coast of western South America provide an additional source of phosphorous. These off the west coast produce practically all the world's output. This was one of the first eommercial fertilizers and is composed of excrement and re- mains of millions of sea birds which bred and died in these areas, The "Cabinzas Island" is restric- ted by the government for a per- iod of ten years at a time for the guano to collect to a depth of many feet. Then it is removed, exported, and the area restricted again. The nitrate beds of Chile, scat- tered over the Chilean desert, are mined to a depth of not more than 30 feet. Lack of rainfall and scantiness of exterior drainage have influenced percipitationi of nitrates. In the porous beds the salt crystallizes as rising ground water evaporates. In the five years that Mr. Ball was there, it had never rained, but on one or two days there was a mist which put all electrical equip- ment out of order./ He also spent some time in the copper mining district in the northern part of Chile. The speaker said that the in- habitants of the northern part of Chile are a better class and speak almost perfect Spanish. In the southern regions the language be- comes more gutteral. (The climate of Chili is divided into three types—desert, mediter- ranean, and cool and temperate in the southern part), The people in general are inter= ested in art, music, and better ed- ucation. While there he attend- ed many symphony concerts. They have some excellent universities where students go for post grad- uate work. They are a delightful people and lead a leisurely life. After some discussion, ne show- ed some different types of ore. Mrs. IVIajthard Carrie thanked the speaker for coming and giving such a splendid address. The Rev.. W. S. Outrrbridge closed with prayer. A delicious luncheon was served by Mrs. Rod- dick, Mrs. Ervine and Mrs. Alf. Scotchmer, Jr. , The next meeting will be held at the home of Mrs, Jack Ciuff on.
