THE *HURON EXPOSITOR
SEAFORTH, Friday, December 16th.
Annual Meeting of W. M. S. -The
annual meeting of the Women's Mis-
sionary Auxiliary was held in the
school room of First Presbyterian
church on Tuesday afternoon, Dec.
12th_ There was a very good attend-
ance considering the inclemency of
the weather. The president, Mrs.
Archibald, occupied the chair and
conducted the- devotional part of the
programme. The reports of the var-
ious secretaries showed activity in all
departments of the work. The secre-
tary reported three life members dur-
ing the year and a total auxiliary
membership of 93, which is consider-
ably less than last year, a number of
the younger members baying joined
the Barbara Kirkman Young Women's
Auxiliary. The Supply Secretary re-
ported $31.20 donated for an outfit
for an Indian boy, which was shipped
to Ahonsat; a donation for the Mc -
branch was included in this
amount. There are 15 Home Helpers
contributing $26, and 78 subscribers
to the Messenger, which is three less
than last year. The election of of-
ficers resulted as follows: President,
Mrs. R. Archibald; 1st vice -President,
Mrs. A. McQuaig; 2nd vice -President,
Mrs. W. Freeman; Secretary, Mrs.
James Watson; Treasurer, Mrs. T.
S. Smith; assistant Treasurer, Mrs. J.
G. Mullen; Messenger Secretary, Miss
Robb; assistant, Miss McDermid ;
Home Helpers' Secretary, Mrs. Neil
Gillespie; assistant, Mrs. J. Cowan ;
Supply Secretary, Mrs. J. Beattie;
Press Secretary, Miss H. I. Graham;

the Lord's Prayer. Following the
programme a delicious tea was serv-
ed by the ladies of the Social Com-
-mittee. As the books do not close till
the end of Decemizer, the Treasurer
was unable to give ict full financial
report.

against it by the liquor interests. He
scored the tior*Ied .Christian
#es • America add Britain, who sent
their missionaries toistdanize the
heathen and perntitterbreweries to
be built in these coup leasto debauch
the natives. It would bring back 98
per cent., Dr. High -said, of the liquor
business if wines and light beers were
introduced, and conditions will be
worse than when we had the saloons,
for there will not be the same regula.
Lions as in the time of the saloons.
You saw a big headline in the papers,
stating that the Wets had gained the
victory in the United States. Don't
believe it; it is a Yankee lie. This
great cause is going on to victory and
in many ways the prospects for pro-
hibition are brighter than before. He
hoped the States and Canada would
fight together as they did in plunders
against this common foe. The party
was conducted by Rev. F. J. Oaten,
DD., who gave some of his impres-
sions of the convention in Toronto.
On Sunday morning Dr. Kempbell
and Dr. Oaten conducted the service
in Egmondville; Dr. High, in the
Presbyterian church, and Rev. N. F.
Pascoe and Mr. Kackn, in the Metho-
dist church.
Temperance Rally. -A banquet, un-
der the auspices of the Ladies' Aid
Societies of the Methodist and Pres-
byterian churches, was held in the
school room of the Methodist church
on Saturday afternoon, December
9th, in honor of the visit to the town
of four delegates from the conven-
tion of the "World League Against
Alcohol," held recently in Toronto, at
which sixty-five different nations were
represented. Mayor W. H. Golding
extended a civic welcome to the vis-
itors and several citizens. Mr. F. T.
Fowler, Mr. W. Hartry, Mr. F. S.
Savauge and Mr. J. Finlayson gave
short after-dinner speeches on the
present system from the standpoint
of education enforcement, business
and industry. Following the banquet
a mass meeting was held in the audi-
torium of the church, at which Mr.
W. Black, M.P., presided. Dr. Kemp -
bell, of Rigs Latvia, chairman of the
Anti -alcohol Society of the Baltic
Provinces, was the first speaker on
the programme. An interesting and
rather remarkable feature of his ad-
dress was t Ike fact that, although Dr.
Kempbell is distinguished linguist,
his acquaintat ce with English began
only two months ago. Notwithstand-
ing this he has acquired during his
two weeks' visit to Canada, enough
of the language to be able to con-
verse well and to address a public
meeting. Latavia, the country from
which Dr. Kempbell comes, was the
scene of the greatest conflict between
the German and Russian forces in
the World War, and, as a result, was
devastated more than even Belgium.
A movement against alcohol began
there thirty years ago and many so-
cieties were formed, but the Russian
and German Governments owned all
the stills and worked against it, but
the national press favored the move-
ment. The same spirit against alco-
hol found expression in many of their
large collections of folk songs. Mr.
Ram of Formosa, who is now study-
ing theology in New York, the next
speaker, conveyed greetings from
Formosa. He said that the darkness
of the gist had been brightened by
the light of Christianity brought to
them through one of our Canadian
heroes, the late Dr. G. L. McKay, of
Forniosa. He paid a high tribute to
his first teacher, Mrs. George McKay,
formerly Miss Jean Ross, daughter
of the late Rev. John Rose, of Bruce -
field, who married a son of the
famous missionary and is assisting
- him in his missionary•work in For-
mosa. He Said the social evil was
much in evidence in Japan, but right-
, ecitieriess will gain the victory, in the
gnit. The power to destroy its power
is in the hands of the churches. Rev.
V. P.: Paseoe, B.A., B.D., reported
that less progress had been made
along the line of prohibition in Mexi-
en) than til any other country, and the
. - Work was marked. by much discour-
agement becitte of the open saloons,
dative Whiskey and drunkenness at
,itlir...yrifret. There were some encour-
` . i

Sad Death. -The sympathy of the
entire community is extended to Mr.
and Mrs. Henry Johnson and daugh-
ter in their very sad and sudden be-
reavement in the death of George,
the youngest eon, which took place
on Saturday morning from meningitis,
after a short illness of two days. He
was a very popular young man in
the prime of life and his passing is
deeply regretted by his numerous
friends. The floral tributes at the
funeral on Monday were most beauti-
ful and were carried by eleven inti-
mate friends of the deceased.
BRUCEFIELD
Notes. -Mrs. W. D. McIntosh vis-
ited friends in Toronto last week. -
Miss Ida Taylor spent the week end
at the home of her friend, Mrs.
Lawrence Forrest -The Brucefield
chopping mill has closed for the pres-
ent and the Stanley Threshing Co.
has opened a mill at Mr. Was. Mc-
Kenzie's and will chop Tuesday and
Thursday afternoons. This should
prove a great convenience to the
farmers. -Miss Mary Gibson is in
Toronto this week end as a delegate -
to the U.F.W.O. Convention.- The
many friends of Mr. Wm, Murdock,
formerly of Stanley, will be sorry to
hear that he is very ill at the home
of his daughter in St. Thomas. -Mr.
Henry Horton has purchased Mr. Ed-
gar Armstrong's farm, also his farm
stock and implements, paying the
sum of $13,000. We welcome Mr.
and Mrs. Horton and son to our com-
munity. -Mr. Frank Aikerihead, Geo.
and Walter Baird, Arthur McQueen,
Thos. Baird and John McCowan at. -
tended the stock show in Guelph this
week
Kelly Circle. -The December meet-
ing of the Kelly Circle held in the
basement of the church, proved to be
one of the most interesting meetings,
of the year. The regular work of
the society was taken by Miss Jessie
Aikenhead and the topic, "Home Mis-
sions in the Maritime Provinces,"
taken by Mrs. George Baird, which
proved very interesting as the home
part of our mission work seems near-
er to us. Another interesting item
was the report of a very successful
year financially by the treasurer. The
total givings for the year amounted
to $355.66, of which the sum of $331
will be sent -to the general fund. That
gives us about $35 more than we had
last year. This amount more than
covers the amount allotted to us for
our share of the deficit money. Our
bazaar and chicken dinner held on
December 1st was also a great suc-
cess, and we are grateful to those
who so kindly helped to make it so
by their donations and work. The
total proceeds amounted to $163. The
officers were then elected for the
coming year and are as follows: Hon.
President, Mrs. (Rev.) McIntosh;
President, Miss Kate McGregor; 1st
vice President, Miss Edyth Bowey;
2nd vice President, Mrs. Hugh Aik-
enhead; Secretary, Miss Margaret
Aikenhead; Treasurer, Mrs. James
Thomson; Mess. Sec., Miss Beth For-
rest; Press Sec., Miss Aggie Beattie;
Organists, Miss Ruth Caldwell and
Miss Alice Rattenbury. The leaders
for the January meeting will be Mrs.
(Rev.) McIntosh and Mrs. Jack Wat-
son.

ing feature of the meeting was the
introduction of the W.M.S. Banner,
by Mrs. Mustard, and the presenta-
tion of a life membership_ to Mrs.
Mustard, from her mother, Mrs. A.
McGregor. The social hour at the
close was spent in a birthday party,
to which the Home Helpers, as well
as auxiliary members, had been in-
vited. Each lady brought with her
some old relic and interesting tales
were related in connection with what
had been handed down, in some cas-
es, from great, great grandparents,
dating back as early as the 17th cen-
tury.
Gauld Mission Band. -The annual
open meeting of the Gauld Mission
Band to which they invite all the
mothers and fathers and friends of
the band, was held last Friday even-
ing. About 70 members of the Band
were present and a ,goodly gathering
of parents and friends. The Presi-
dent, Mrs. Monteith, was in the chair.
The usual programme was followed in
the opening exercis,es, singing, the
M. B. prayer, Scripture reading led
by Olive Cooper. The Secretary,
Erna Hyde, and the TreaSnrer, Jas.
Mustard, gave reports of the year's
work and the roll was called. It was
found when everything was totalled
up that the Gold side had won in
the contest for attendance and mem-
bership by- about three points. They'
are expecting, any day now, to re-
ceive notice of the day and hour when
the treat from the '"Blues" will be
forthcoming. The primary class of
the Band sang "Little Helpers," and
gave an exercise entitled, "Ten Little
Pennies. The intermediates gave two
exercises, "Wen Sheen' and "Topsy
Turvy Land" and all joined with
them in the M. B. hymn, "The Whole
Wide World for Jesus." The senior
class sang "Go and Tell to Others."
Mary McDonald presided at the or-
gan. Instead of the usual lesson, Mrs.
Lundy told a story, one that young
and old might draw a lesson from.
A very interesting part of the pro-
gramme was the presentation of
junior memberships to the following:
Doreen Copper, Elva McGregor, Hazel
Thompson, Jessie Finlayson, Florence
Thompson, Edna McGregor, Grace
Fairbairn, Jas. Mustard, Flora Sbuter.
A very unusual and happy event of
the Mission Band evening was the
presentation of a life membership in
the W.M.S. to Mrs. J. B. McLean by
her children, and her mother at the
same time making her the gift of a
life member's pin, The contents of
the M. B. barrels, together with the
evening's open collection, amounted
to $107.60.
Young Peoples' Club. -The Young
Peoples' Club meets this Friday
night. The young men have full

night but all ;are heartily welcome.

Small Fire. -On TueisdaY evening
last a hurried call by telephone was
rung in to our Reeve, that the resi-
dence of Mr. Wm, Pearce, a little
northwest IA our village, had caught
fire from the furnace. The Reeve
quickly reSponded to the call giving
the alarm Jo our villagers and ar-
ranging for the sending out of our
village equipment, while he and many
more quickly got out to Mr. Pierce's
when it was, found that the fire had
originated from some green wood
which his Sons had put on the top of
the furnace to dry out a little. Be-
fore they realized it, however, they
had caught fire and communicated
the same tothe floor and joist over
the basement, where the furnace was,
and had burnt quite a large hole in
the .first floor of the dwelling. But
'through the good help of those pres-
ent the fire ,wati got under control be-
fore it had got between the parti-
tions, and what threatened to be a
very serious fire was happily quench-
ed by a quick supply of water. Mr.
Pearce and family are to be congratu-
lated on the saving of their fine dwel-
ling and they are indeed very thank-
ful to their kind. -neighbors and
friends for their very timely help.
