er at Afternoon Session.

VARIOUS BRANCHES
The annual rally of Hums Pres-
byterial of the Women's Missionary
Society of the Presbyterian Church
in Canada was held in Carmel Pres-
byterian Church, Hensall, on Tuesday.

to .the ladies of the• church mach ap-
preciation was expressed for the de-
lightful Iunch they served.

ing session, after which 'Mrs. Young

well. rendered.. welcome song fr
Viers of the Sunshine Mission
Band.
President Speaks
Miss Jeckell ` of Exeter, president,
opened her splendid address by say-
ing she was taking advantage of be-
ing
able to express herself to repre-
sentatives from every society in the
Presbyterial which opportunity came
to her but once a year. 'She said the
Teaching of the allocation last year
should be an imrpetus to stress for-
ward to greater achievements this
Sear, She wanted to see impro'v'e-
ments in the sending in of reports.
She emphasized the fact that it was
a difficult task for Presbyterial Sec-
retaries to bring attractive reports to
the rallies and annual meetings if the
secretaries of the departments of thea
work in the various organizations, •
sent in bare tabulated forms without
the accompaniment of an account of the
work which the figures represented.
Miss Jeckell pointed out to the presi-
dents that there is no excuse for un-
in'teres'tYrg meetings, as a Missionary
Society has a larger scope from Which
to drew material than any other or-
ganization, for its field' is world -wine.
She urged treasurers in giving their
,monthly statement to compare their
standing with that of last year, and
to check up if 'behind, not wait until
the annual meeting to reach the al-
location. "Aim. at 100 per cent. in
every phase of the work," she said.
"Life is a big'bundle of little things.
Strive to do the smallest task per-
fectly and your W.M.S. will increase
and expand. Let others feel the
power of God within you. Christ
has been transforming Iives for 2,000
years. A 'Christian reflects the spir-
it of Christ in his face. Let us look
"into the face of Jesus and be like
Him."

Peanuts
The price of peanuts in Sea -
forth will no longer be depend-
ent on tariffs and freight and
such things, now that the luscious
nuts are being grown locally. Mr.
James Rivers of the -N ;*vad,
has shown us some peanut plants
which he took from his garden
Thursday, each of which is laden
with nuts. -On one choice plant
was counted 54 peanuts. The
peanuts are attached to the plant
not unlike potatoes,, and were
grown in a a;ap,dy soil and were
planted early in May. Mr. Rivers
procured the `peanuts he planted
from his son, who j rought them
from Kentucky. Mr. 1I1. G. Meir
also has peanut plants growing
in his, garden on the North Road.

1Locat stamp collecting enthusiasts

}Months.

Meetings will be held every week
end. An increase of 100 per cent. in
the present membership is expected.
Talks and -exhibits of stamps will be
a feature of each meeting.
Stamp collecting„ it was pointed
out, is the king of hobbies and the
hotby of kings. King George has one
of the largest and most valuable of
collections in the world. Others of
royalty also Collect including King
Fuad of Egypt and the- Prince of
Wales.
Many persens have made small
fortunes out of these bits of paper.
Through stamps, collectors learn
geography and history of foreign
countries and also part of their lang-
uages, customs and art. .
For the benefit of the club the peo-
ple of the town are asked to save
the higher values of Canadian stamps
and give what old stamps they halve
on letters to any on the executive of
bhe club. Any stamps given will be
highly appreciated.
'Meetings of the club will be held
every Friday evening at '7 o'clock in
the Timis 'Hall beside the Northside
United Church. Persons having col-
lections or wishing to collect are ask-
ed to corrtmunicate with the executive
of the club. Visitors are welcome at
any meeting.

The Secretary, Mrs. Young, read a
very interesting and accurate ac-
eount - of the January meeting in
Clinton and the executive June meet-
ing
eeting in Bayfield. Mrs. T. Swan
' Smith, Treasurer, gave an en-
couraging report of the finances to
date and an earnest appeal to each

so that we may reach the allocation

everyone missed the report of the
faithful Life Me'm'bership Secretary,
Miss MacFarlane, of Clinton, and
wished for her a complete recovery
to health.
The' Mission Band Secretary, Mrs.
Si. A. Reid, stressed the importance
of organizing Mission Bands and
pleaded with Women's Auxiliaries to
realise that it is their responsibility.
"Wherever we have a W. M. S. we
should have a Mission Band if the
missionary spirit is to be perpetuat-
ed in Huron Presbyterial," she said.
The Mission Band Rally will 'be
?veld in* Goderich on Saturday, Sep -
teaser 22nd, and every Mission Band
member should be present.

Little business and- a lot of argu-

meeting of the town council on Mon-
day evening. Representatives of the

of the Avon Chest were present and
explained the syndicate's connection
with the tangled affairs of the Avon
Chests. 'Maxor Sutherland presided
end the councillors were all present
with the exception of Councillor L.
Eberihart. . ,
Mayor Sutherland, in opening the
mleeting, called on Mr. C. P. }Sills - and
'Mr. C. Alber'hart, representing the
Holding -Syndicate, - to speak.
iii. Sills told - counoil the-.aymdi-
Cate had been invited . to be present
by the finance committee. He then
proceeded to review the events lead-
ing up to the present situation.
The building had been owned .'
the Sanford Manufacturing. Company
and was !bought'by a number ofsi-
ness men of the town, who took ac-
tion, not with any thought of profit,
but with the interests of the town at
'heart.
When the Avon 'Chemo .enterers the
scene the Syndicate sold the 'wilding
!to i b Tor an amount of s'toicic in the com-
pany. A. short time later; continued
,Sills, the company got into dif- -
ficulties and the. "stank }..threatened to
foreclose. To prevent - this the Syn-
dicate took a mortgage on the build-
ing and equipment for -a considerable
sum.
The 'Syndicate, as a body, has no
Connection with the guarantors of -

Syndicate, however, are also guarah- -
tors. The Syndicate is the _mortagee
in :possession at_ the present time,, un-
der the terms of. the mortgage.
The sale of some chattels a few
weeks ago, to which the femme com-
mittee had objected, had realized $80
which had paid the insurance, he pon- -
tinued .». - ...::.,- -
"The money realized on anything
that was sold went to protect your
interests," Mr. Sills told the council.
"Your interests and ours are similar.
We must have the co-operation of the
council. At. the present time we have
a prospect in view who would m -
ploy 20 'men."
When Mr. Sills concluded, Council-
lor Broderick thanked hurl "It is a
very honest and straightforward pres-
entation," he said.
Reeve 'Crosier agreed. "I . didn't
know the facts until 'Mr. Sills told
me." He then explained the disagree-
ment which "had arisen a few weeks
ago. There wouldn't have been any
trouble if he had known the facts to
be as they are.
"On the other hand," remarked
Councillor Bolton, "if they had told
the council what they were going to
do there would have been no trouble.."
"I don't think Mr. Stewart had any .
need to tell us," replied the Reeve.
Mr. Sills answered a number of
other questiqns and council appeared
to be satisfied with the information
