There are a number of very interesting and clever women" in the membership, women of rich'. exper- ience in many walks' of life, young .women,: old .women and many in be- tween; women who are earnestly en- deavoring to do- the ..work which comes to their hand to the very best of their ability and who• are riot afraid to step out of their ownspher•e when occasion element's, if they can thus. serve their day and generation. The Women's Press Club 'wet formed on the train as a few news- paper women,' (they were but few in number then) were returning from the World's Fair at Chicago in the early part .• of • this century .° Amongst the two or three women was "Kit" of the . Mail, a pioneer, and with that rare soul, the late' George Ham of the Canadian Paci- fic, who . Was termed the "father," of the Club was its only male member, For 192 m otor.il.' or conditions 4INII ,DN 'AL Here is the 1929 tire for the 1929 car. New in design and construction. Extra thick tread has deep -cut blocks to give greater non-skid mileage. Rugged carcass is built with web cord. It has" strength where 1929 motoring con-• ditions demand it. Side-walls are strongly buttressed to resist rut and curb wear. For safety and long mileage, for the job your 1929 car has to do, the new Royal Cord is the one tire for you. ..

The work is only begun. Farmers, knowing their personal loss through weeds, co-operate to end the nuisetice. n/fhnicipal councils and individuals in villages, towns and cities are wholeheartedly joining in the fight against the common enemy -WEEDS. NOW is the time to 'strike, to prevent most weeds from seeding. Cut the weeds down BEFORE they flower and seed. Fight weeds as you would firel You wisely protect yourself from losses by fire, . .'. which are a possibility. Protect your property from heavy losses by weeds. Neglect makes these losses a certainty. Weeds spread like wildfire if neglected. Destroy all noxious weeds on your lands. Notify your municipal council or weed inspector of weed growths found pix roadways, vacant properties, cemeteries and other public places. WARNING Under the' provisions of the Weed Control' Act, everyoccupant of land and every owner of unoccupied land is required to destroy noxious weeds be- fore their seeds ripen. Road. Authorities are required to destroy all weeds growing upon the. highways.• .. Ontario Department of Agriculture Parliament Buildings, Toronto Hon. John e. Martin • • e. A.

Nellie L. McClung, ' a public speaker of note, who has in- terested herself in the cause of tem- perance and has done much to bring. about changes in the laws of Alberta,. Which were until very recently Moet 'unfair to Women. She has also writ- ten several popular books. The late Mia. Isabel Ecclestone MacKay of Vancouver, a charming woman and 'one of Canada's sweet singers, hav- ing' ,written -many very delightful - poems, was also a member for many years ,and up to the time of her lam- ented death a year or so ago, Moss Cora hind of the Winnipeg Free. Press, an authority on agricultural subjects, is, also a member. These are but a few of the many gifted womenwho make ftp this organization. The president for the past three years has been Miss Clem denning of the ,Farmer's Advocate, who beforethat had acted as secret a2y-tl'oasurer. Rebekah has been a,menther of the Club since 1010 and went with the organization on lis first Jong • tripto the West in 1913. Phe convention was held that year in Eldrnonton, with a trip to- the Coast later' for those whowished to go ,on. I have not at- tended all the '^conventions since, (they ale held triennially);; but was at the laet one, held in Toronto, in.. 1926. Staying at home, however, I am in good company, as Janie Can - eels is, planning. to spend her holiday in her own back garden at Edmon ton. The convention will be the poor- er for her absence, (oh .I am not vain enough to believe 'I shall be missed), for she is full of bright id- eas and shrewedly-kind .suggestions and is greatly beloved bythe mem- bers. But there will be piepty of' others and I have not the slightest doubt abut that a "good time will be had by all." At the.conclusion of the business sessions the party take a trip down through the Annapolis Valley, "Evan- geline's Land,;' to the 'historic city of Halifax and those who wish will also visit Prince Edward's Island.. This Is all made possible by the. generosity of the , C.N.R. and the C.F.R., who are themostthoughtful and kindly 'hosts and who always make these trips s6 enjoyable that they live in the memory ever after. The wome'nwho are taking this trip through our provinces by the sen are to he congratulated.
