TAVENER RE-ELECTED HEAD PRESBYTERIAL WMS The auditorium of Wingham United Church, was filled for the 20th annual meeting of Huron Presbyterial Woman's Missionary Society, United Church of 'Canada, on Thursday, April 25. The president, Mrs. C. O. Tavener, Holmesville, very ably conducted the morning and afternoon sessions. "Forward in the Crusade for Christ and His Kingdom" was the theme for the day, "What is my part in the Crusade,' was the thought in the morning worship service conducted by Mrs. W. McVittie, Westfield and Mrs. H. Wilson, Brussels. "Quiet Places" was the thought in the afternoon worships led by Mrs, R. Lawson, Seaforth, and Mrs. R. Batten, Exeter. • Mrs. A• W. Irwin, Wingham, brought welcome greetings from the Wingham Church and Mrs. Lorne Nichol, Brussels, replied on behalf of the delegates and visitors. An amount of $15,961 was sent to the Branch Treasureran increase of $878 over 1944. This increase was accounted for by 46 Auxiliaries, seven Evening Auxiliaries, five Mission Circles' and 39 Mission Bands reach- ing or exceeding their allocation. Progress Reported The story of the year in the various organizations and departments was given in a panel discussion. From Baby Bands, Mission Bands, C.G.I.T. groups, Mission Circles, Exening Aux- iliaries, increased interest was shown in the individual groups. Eighteen Mission Bands qualified for the Standards of Recognition. The Supply Allocation was exceeded greatly. ln• crease in subscriptions to Missionary Monthly was noted and there was ar increase in visits made on the sicl and aged. There also was a new awakening to the urgency of th need of having Temperance an Citizenship presented at the meetings While the discussion indicated that a successful and encouraging year had elapsed, the secretaries pointed out the need of more missionary training in all groups, more sacrificial giving and more loyal working church people, The children of the Wingham Mis- sion Band sang "We Thank Thee, C Our Father," Mrs. R. Nay, F'ordwich dedicated the offering and Mrs. W. C. Hackwell, Walton, closed the ses. sion with prayer. London Woman Speaks Mrs. J. H. Childs, President of London Conference Branch, compared the work of the Woman's Missionary Society with that of the Early Church which Christ started. He was inter. .ested in the children, we look after them in our younger gioups. Our Missionaries are going nut just as the early church went out, so that they who know not of "The Truth that makes men free, may have life an have it more abundantly." "The need is great:—need of mon missionaries, more money, and neer to practice more definitely and mor positively the gospel 'we send then out to preach," stated Mrs. Childs At the conclusion of her talk Mrs Childs installed the members of th new executive, Mrs. A, W. Gardiner, Egmondville conducted the "In Memoriam" servict in honour of the 38 members who hat passed Un during the year. A message was brought hem Pies• bytery by the chairman, Rev. Gordoi Hazlewood, Walton. Delegates appointed to attend Con• Terence Branch in St. Thomas May 8 and 9 were Mrs. H. Cook, Hensall; Mrs. A. W. Gardiner, Egmondville; Miss Minnie Currie, Nile; and Mrs Gilbert 'Beecroft, Brick Church. Mrs. L.
