There war a large and rePresentenive attendance, twenty out of the twenty-two auxiliaties of the District having sent delegates. In the afternoon Mrs. Finlay of Gorrie, gave a very inetructive talk on "The Duties of Officers," treating each officer separately, this led tosan interesting discussion among the dele- gates, A feature of special interest was the reading of a message to the District sent by Miss Wellwood from China, telling of her work there since her return. The Convention was for- tunate in having two excellent speak- ers from ,the Mission fields, Miss Edith Sperling on furlough from China and Mrst. Sutton from Lethbrid- ge. Miss Sperling presented the con- dition, and needs of China in a new and interesting manner, treating par- ticularly the work among the women and children and the new child wel- fare work that is being opened up in some of the cities to save the babies of whorn £3o per cent. die every year. Mrs. Sutton was most interesting, corning from our own Canadian West. She spoke of the -work among the Uk- raulans, there being 400a000 persons in s Western Canada speaking that la.ng- s liege.' She also told of the • work among the non English in the mining camps, each church, trying to do its bit, and sounded a strong note for Church Union as the only safe work- ing basis in those places. The program was varied with solos from Mrs. Johnston of Bervie and Mrs. Joynt of Lucknow. Supper was served in the school room, daffodils making cheery decorations. During the tea hour, Mrs. Cragg welcomed the visitors in a few bright words, this was replied to by Mrs, Peters of • Belgrave, Mrs. •Perrie of the •Presby- terian church and Mrs. Anderson of the Baptist church brought greetings, and each told sornething of. the mis- sion work being done by their respec- tive eocieties. An ineritation was • accepted from Lucknow, to hold the next convention in thee town.• The reports from the auxiliaries were both interesting and encouraging, showing a total member- ship in the District of 547 and $2415 raised last year, an increase both num- erically and financially over the prev- ious year.
