RALLY HELD
AT LUCKNOW
Mrs. A. MacDonald Of Ailsa Craig,
Guest Speaker At Maitland
Presbyterial
The annual rally of the Maitland
Presbyterial of the W.M.S, of the
Presbyterian Church in Canada was
held in the Presbyterian Church, Luck-
now, on Wednesday afternoon, with
the vice-president, Mrs. Guthrie Reed,
presiding.
The opening .devotional period on
the theme "The World Needs the
Light of God's Word," was conducted
by 'members from South Kinloss.
Words di welcome were extended
by Mrs. Porteous of Lucknow. The
roll 'call was answered by represent-
atives of 14 auxiliaries giving a brief
account of special features of their
work. A most encouraging report
was presented by the treasurer, Mrs.
John Bell, Kincardine, showing the
financial standing to be better than
last year at this time.
The conferences were of special
interest and educational value. Mrs.
C. McCarrol, Molesworth, outlined
some' essentials for a- good W.M.S.,
namely: definite Christian leadership;
untiring devotion; prayer; well-plan-
ned program's with variety; givings in
order to carry on; "Victory can't be
ours if we let God down.';
Mrs. K. MacLean, Wingham, gave
some worthwhile suggestions on "How
to present our study book." They
were: make a thorough study of the
book, If you do not know it yourself,
you cannot impart it to others; put
real life and personality into the sub-
ject; prepare questions on the subject;
by means of posters; in the form of
a radio broadcast.
Prayers were offered "For a spiritual
revival," "For 'teen-age girls" and "For
those who are struggling for victory"
by Mrs-. McCarrol, Mrs. John Mc-
Kibbon and ,Mrs. Linklater.
The guest speaker was Mrs. A. B.
MacDonald, Previncial :finance secre-
tary of 'Ailsa Craig. She based her
remarks on 2- Cor. 5:20, "We are am-
bassadors for Christ." She spoke of
the W.M.S. as the first women's so-
ciety to sweep across Canada and ask-
ed for increased membership in order
to meet the increasing demand for
finance. She said it is necessary "to
build a strong church to meet the
needs of postwar conditions. Christ
must be the foundation for lasting
peace." The W.M.S., as ambassadors,
must be filled with the power of God
and have a vision "if we are to win
Canada. for 'Christ and Christ for the
w r lhed." T
report of the provincial board
meeting held recently in Toronto was
presented by. the Presbyterial presi-
dent, Mrs. F. G. Fowler, Bluevalc.
She outlined the highlights of the re-
ports of the different 'secretaries, and
the main points- 'of the addresses and,
rep6rted the provincial finances in
good shape with good prospects of go-
ing over the top in Ontario, She spoke
of the valuable work of the deacon-
esses, and asked for special prayer for
the success of their labors,
A vocal solo during the program
was enjoyed. At the close of 'the
meeting refreshments were served by
members of the Lucknow auxiliary,

BLOOD
URGENTLY NEEDED
Next Clinic Will Be Held Here
November 25th
The Red Cross 'Blood Donor Clinic
held here October 11th was the third
in the standing of such clinics held-
that week in the province. This is an
outstanding achievement .for a district
such as ours considering the size of
the population in comparison to other
places which held clinics that week.
However the committee has inform-
ed us that- there are many who have
not as yet taken part in this service
and it is impossible to keep up to the
mark of, the last :clinic unless there is
a great increase in new donors. ,
Mobile clinics are• providing about
one quarter of the blood serum obtain-
ed in Ontario. It is the objective to
do much better. You may save the
life of a soldier, airman, or sailor by
your ,donation... .The next clinic here'
will be on Wednesday, November 15th,

OVERSEAS LETTERS
OF LOCAL INTEREST
The first two letters were received,
by Ernie Lewis from George Lloyd,
and Bill licigg in appreciation of the,
cigarettes sent to them by the Serg-
eant's Mess of the 99th (R) Battery,
R.C.A, The Mess also received replies
from Jack Orvis, Ted Elliott, and.
Clarence Ohm, thanking them for
cigarettes.
Dear Ernie:
Just a short note to thank the boys
of the N,C.O's, mess for the carton of
cigarettes that they sent me. It was
yery kind of them and I appreciate 'it
very much.
I haven't seen very many Wingham
boys since coming over, but I did run
into George Baker from Brussels, who
used to be in the 99th. I also had a
letter from Al Williams last week and
he seems to be doing all right.
I read in the paper where the 99th.
went to camp for two weeks again this
year. I would liked to have been
there as I •had a lot of fun the year I
went.
So far over here I have clone hardly
anything but, fly, particularly at this
stage of the game. They 'are flying
us day and night with very little rest
in between flights. However, I don't
expect to do very many operations
from this country and will probably
go other places in the near future.
Anyway, I will certainly see the -world-
Say hello to all the boys for me and
thanks again for the cigarettes.
Sincerely,
George H. Lloyd.

Dear Ernie:
Just a few lines to let you know I
received the cigarettes from your boys
last night and thanks a million, they
are certainly welcome, We. get,issued
.English cigarettes all the time but they
can't touch the Sweet Caps any day.
-Well we're doing pretty good over here.
Ernie, at least we think so and liking
the country, people etc pretty good.
Have seen most of Belgian and
France and part of Holland so we have,
seen quite a lot of country and it is
sure beautiful. They seem glad to see
the boys coming and no wonder, if the
stories are all true about the Jerries,
and I guess they are.. Red Elliott
and I are together yet on the same
crew, he got his cig's also last night
and will likely 'be writing today. He
is fine and right in there pitching,
Well I am not much at this jab Ern-
ie, but just wanted you to know I got
the fags O.K. So long for now and
hope we are -back there pretty soon.
Sincerely,
