JAMES ST, W. M- S.
The W. Ma g. o£ the James Street
United church held their annual an
niversary and thank-offering ser
vices on Sunday last. The special
guest-speaker for the morning ser
vice was Dr, Crawford, of London,
a medical missionary from China
home on furlough. Beautiful floral
decorations adorned the pulpit ros
trum. The choir furnished special
music. An anthem and a ladies’
chorus was sung at the morning ser
vice with Miss Lulu Lindenfield and
Mrs .E. iLindenfield taking solo
parts in the anthem. Miss Pearl
Wood sang a solo. At the evening
service an anthem was sung with
Mrs. T. Coates taking solo obligtfto.
A male chorus was also sung. Sev
eral young men acted as ushers and
collectors for the day. Dr. Craw
ford stated that it was thirty years
ago that he first went to China as a
medical missionary and since that
time great strides had beep made
in-Christian missions. Native--Chin
ese ministers, doctors, nurses and
teacheTs trained in the mission
schools and hospitals were now do
ing magnificent work and had as
sisted greatly in extending the work
and influence of the missionaries.
Over half of the members of the
Chinese Federal Calbinet are Chris
tian gentlemen. Over half of the
cost of the missionary work in
China was now betng raised by the
Chinese people. Dr. Crawford told
of numerous personal experiences
with native Chinese showing the in
fluence of the missionaries in not
only spreading Christianity but in
assisting the people of China to im
prove their living conditions. In
the evening the pastor Rev A. Page,
chose a missionary topic “Why
Christian Missions’’ and delivered a
very interesting message.

The Duchess range, cabinet style, makes a beautiful choice

and large roomy ovens.
Disagreeable weather which pre
vailed in this district during the
past week had its effect on the an

Huron Plowman's Association whicn
was held Thursday last on the
farms of Thos. Ballaatyne and Henry
Rhode, of the Thames Road', about
four miles east o* Exeter. The
event proved to be a splendid suc

most of the day. However the at

down a little from otner years.

UNDER-DISTRIBUT(ION
‘‘Side by side with the alleged
over-iproduction, one is confronted
with the stubborn fact that approxi
mately two-thirds of the world’s po-
, pulat'ion is living under conditions of
actual want. Indeed, in a substan-
] tial measure, below what ia known
as the line of bare subsistence. Con-
i sequently, it is only reasonable to

MT. PLEASANT PLOWING
MATCH
Participating Plowmen, However,
Turn in High Quality Work
Cold and damp on Friday after
noon somewhat interfered with the
annual Mount Pleasant Plowing
Match held on the farm of John
Wallace, Hibbert Township, half a
mile from Cromarty. The weather
was said to have been responsible
for a smaller attendance and a
somewhat smaller entry, there be
ing twenty-two .plowmen taking
part in the various events.
But there wasn’t a thing to
stop the participating plowmen from
turning in work which was of a
high order and work which won
the praise of the judge. Clark Young
of Milliken, treasurer of the Inter
national Plowmen’s Association,
Nelson Roach, the president of the
Mt. Pleasant Association and Frank
Allen, the secretary, . expressed
themselves as being fairly well sat
isfied although they had hoped for
more entries in some of the attrac
tive classes which had been listed.
