Address on Liberalism Was Special
Feature.
Theen r l
op meeting r ;, o f f t u Liberal
Women's Club held in the Council
Charnber Tbu.i.:y sdaevening of last
6
week was wellattended and those.
present enjoyed an excellent program•.
At the close of the businessar
1' t of
r
the program, Mrs. D. Rae sang in her
usual Pleasing manner, accompanied
by Miss Ella Rae, The feature of the
program was the paper which follow-
ed, prepared and given by Miss Eliza-
beth Dey and entitled "A Study of
Liberalism as Applied to Canada.
The romantic history of Canada
was traced from the early French re-
gime to the passing of the Constitu-
tional Act in 1791 and the subsequent
period of political strife which result-
ed in the formation of the two great
political parties. The Liberals of' Can-
ada found their models in the Liber-
alism of England, in the men who
had fought the battles of orderly free-.
dom and repsonsible self-government
against privileged and selfish inter-
ests.
' The life of a. Liberal is one of
unceasing effort towards progress and
development of mankind. Miss Dey
quoted that great statesman and Lib-
eral, Sir Wilfred Laurier and traced `
his long and colorful political careen
She urged her listeners to a staunch
support of their present able leader
and true •Liberalism.
Miss Sara MacLean sang two de-
lightful numbers and these were fol-
lowed by a short ,address by Mr. R.
S. Hetherington. Mr. Hetherington
spoke briefly but in a very clear-
sighted manner on the Italo-Ethiop-
ian'situation, with its far-reaching ef-
fects on European politics, and sub-
sequently American and Canadian re-
actions.
Mr. Hetherington read a message
which came by wire from Mr.' Deach-
man, in which he expressed his re-
gret in having to missthe meeting.
The singing of the National Anth-
em brought the meeting to a close.
To the Boy Friend—How about ,a
