committee is expected to get their
campaign under way as soon as pos-
sible. '

activities such as Carnivals, and the
arrangtments for these affairs was
left to a Committee of j. R. M. Spit
-
tale H. Garlick, H. Cannibell, J. H.
Crawford and J. W. Hanna.
Considerable discussion took place
re the local rink and the meethag
went on &cord recommending to the
Council that they give favorable con-
sideration to purchasing the Arena,
and that a plebescite be put to the
people for such purpose at the De -
ember elections.

POLITICAL FIELD
New Organization of Huron -Bruce
• To Be Formed.
The annual meeting of the North
Huron Political Association of the
'United Farmers, was laeld irt the
Council Chamber on Friday after-
noon. The attendance was small, but
the enthusiasm shown by those pre-
sent made up in measure for the
small attendance.
It was decided unanimously"' that
candidates be placed in the field in
both provincial and federal ridings
and the arrangements for a conven-
tion meeting were left with the Ex-
ecutive.
The principal 'speaker of the after-
noon was H. H:Hannam, Education-
al Sec'y of the U.F,O., and he was
entheilastic over the progress that the
organization had made in the last
year, and also endorsed most heart-
ily the affiliation with the C C. F.
He also said that the farmers were
not getting a hir share of the pro-
fits from their products as the dis-
tributing companies overlapped in
distribution and also paid dividends
on watered stoek, He felt that pro-
per co-operation between the city
people' and. the farmer would elimin-
ate high cost of milk and give more
to the farmer for' his product.
W. J. Henderson also spoke and
he said the old order was bound to
change and quoted the resolution that
was advanced by the United Church
Conference in Toronto to support his
statement.
R. 5. Scott, President of the U.
F. 0., gave a comprehensive talk on
present-day problems and stated that
the old parties were antiquated in
policy and the C.C.F., with which the
U.F.O. was affiliated, were the only
party that had a policy/that would
bring 'a new order and benefit the
ordinary Irian.
Mrs. a G. Anderson, the vice
President, also spoke, and stated that
the representatives of the U.F.O. to
the C.C.F. Convention in Regina in
July, R. J. Scott, H. H. Hannam and
W. C. Good, were worthy represent-
atives, and could be relied on to look
after the interests of the people of
Ontario, and in particular the farm -

o'clock Mr. J. E, Honnith was return-

muth, and when about two miles east
of Gorrie Ins car was struck, Mr.

and leg were fractured, but he is now
progressing gavorably, Mr. J. E. Ho -
ninth and his daughter escaped seri-
ous injury but were bruised, and bad-
ly shaken up.
It appears that Mr. Robert Mc-
Laughlin, in driving from Ins farm,
turned out in front of Mr. Hornuth's
car, and to avoid an accident, Mr.
Homuth turned Ins car toward the
ditch, but failed to avoid the collis-
ion. His car rolled over the ditch

Latnont, Field Sec'y of the Women's
Missionary Society whose address
was most instrctive and helpful. She
spoke on the objict of holding sec-
tional meetings, it being the develop-
ment of leadership among the mem-
bers. She also gave some interesting
suggestions on how best to conduct
these meetings. Her report on the
enlarged County meeting:which was
held in Toronto in May, was most
interesting. Stressing Mission Band
work, she spoke about the uses to
which these funds were applied. They
support Miss Soritax, the nurse in the
Children's Hospital in the Bhil Field,
also these Funds are sufficient to car-
ry on one day a month the work in
the foreign field, therefore the first

Bands, Mission Bands, Girls' Auxil-
iaries, Young Women's Auxiliaries
and the Senior W.M.S. As the Wo-
men's Missionary Society throughout

membership and as there is now a
campaign for new members, Miss La-
mont unfolded plans which whereby
this campaign will reach a success-
ful conclusion.
