The whole pro- gramme was prepared and presented by the Evening Auxiliary, the presi- dent, Mrs. Jack Reavie, presiding. The devotions were taken by Mrs, Reavie, And Mrs. Jim Hamilton. Using maPS and posters, Mrs. Wm. Cruikshank told of the schools in Japan operating under the United Church and the work they are doing. She said that Japan has always stressed education, having 99% literary in its population and demanding nine years of school edu- cation for its youth. General MacAr- thur was quoted as saying that Chris- tianity now faces its greatest oppor- tunity in Japan. A short skit led by Mrs. G. W, Tiffin assisted by Mrs. Hodgins, Mrs. Hamilton, Mrs. Cruikshank and Mrs. Reavie, depicted the work being done in the two schools in Japan under the direction of the Woman's Missionary Society of the United Church. An interesting discussion "Why Are We Justified in Continuing Our Edu- cational Projects in Japan?" was led by Mrs. Cruikshank. This was followed by a solo, "Teach Me Thy Will," by Mrs. Norman Keating. Mrs. G. N. Underwood had charge of the business. An interesting letter from Mrs. (Rev.) Jack Thompson was read, in which she thanked the Aux- iliary for remembering her baby girl, and also told something of her work in Trinidad. Mrs. Jim Hamilton closed the meet- ing by reading two poems which were written by Kagawa of Japan. Lunch was then served and a social hour spent. Mission Band Rally Held in Wingham A rally for Mission Bands from the Eastern section of Maitland Pres- byterial was held in St. Andrew's Church, Wingham, on Saturday. Mem- bers from Whitechurch, Teeswater, Brussels and Wingham were present. Mrs. Farish Moffat, Langside, pre- sided. Teeswater Band was in charge of the devotions and Gloria Stabo read the Scripture and Joan Marshall led in prayer. The chorus "Jesus Loves the Little Children" was given by members of the Wingham Band, Mrs. R. Mowbray, Wingham, Presbyterial secretary, read the minutes. The offertory prayer was given by Helen Wilson, Brussels. Mrs. Mowbray introduced the guest speaker, Miss Lily MacArthur, Child- ren's Work Secretary, Toronto. Miss MacArthur spoke to the children of the early pioneer's work and of the early church, also the work of the Missions. Mrs. A. Nimmo thanked the speak- er and the closing prayer was given by Betty Newman, Whitechurch. On Wednesday evening, May 2nd., a Mission Band Leaders meeting was held in Knox Church, Teeswater. The leaders of Teeswater Mission Band were in charge of the devotions. Miss MacArthur spoke to the lead- ers and displayed a number of helps for work with the children. The rally for the Western section was held in Knox Church, Kincardine, on Saturday, April 28th. 41•1441114161111•10111•11001111111..145 BOX 273 Editor Advance-Times, Dear Sir: The recent decision by the Town Council to "cease payments for re- creational activities" has come as a surprise to me, and I believe, some other citizens of this town. This de- cision actually means that Organized Recreation under a competent, qual- ified Director is being abandoned as a municipal project. It would be quite impossible to carry on the program without the grant hitherto made avail- able to the extent of two-thirds of the director's salary, (the remaining third being made up from a grant from the Provincial Government.) The movement for an organized program of recreation was started some five years ago, as a result of popular public support and interest in the project. In my opinion, that support has not diminished with the years and iS just as great today as ever. Therefore, it is surprising, that the decision to abandon the project should be made with so little refer- ence to public opinion generally, and more specifically, to the Recreation Council itself, who, I understand, had not the slightest intimation that the grants Were to be withdrawn. It is Understandable, that with to- day's high mill rate, ways and means of reducing public expenditure must be constantly sought after, but there are some things that a community cannot afford to he without, and I submit that the general program of Recreation carried on in this town is one of them. , Yours very truly, Norman Welwood St. Andrew's W.M.S. The regular meeting of the Worn- ens' Missionary Society of St. And- rew's Presbyterian Church, was held on. Tuesday afternoon, May 1st., at three o'clock in the church parlour. In the absence of the president, Mrs, Leslie Fortune, the first vice- president, Mrs, Alex Nimmo, occupied the chair and opened the meeting with invocation. The general business of the meet- ing was conducted, followed by the secretary's report and roll call, Ar- rangements were made to send dele- gates to the Presbyterial meeting to be held in Teeswater on May 15th. The delegates appointed were Miss Agnes Mitchell and Mrs, Wm. Ford. It was moved that Wingham Society extend an invitation to have the Presbyterial held in St. Andrew's Church, Wingham, in 1952. The offering was received and Mrs. Geo. Day gave the dedicatory prayer. The treasurer's report was read and adopted. Mrs. R. Mowbray gave a very in- teresting account of the synodical meeting held recently in Sarnia, to which she was a delegate. Mrs. Gordon Godkin led in prayer, The Scripture reading and meditation was given by Miss Agnes Mitchell, which was taken from Matthew 25- 30-41, and Corinthians 1-13, Chapter 3. Miss Cora Gilkinson gave a most in- teresting and inspiring paper from the current study book, dealing with missions in Canada. The meeting for May was in charge of Miss Jean Wilton and Mrs. George Day. The closing prayer was given by Mrs. J, Burchill.
