GEO. w. JAMES, Editor. At Barrie, Sept. 8th, was lueld an ail day conference of churclimen, isyrnen, farmers, and eommunity leaders. It was the first meeting of its kind ta be held in Canada, and flue idea back of if is destined ta grow and spread, because, af last, if appears that people are beginning ta enconlpass and un- derstand tise "oneness" af a rural commun- ity. Discussions at Barrie were open anxd enthusiastie. Main speakers wcrc ministers of the Gospel, leaders in tlue Federatian of Agriculture and o! the Women 's Institute. Pormal manuscripts wcre prcpared which ahowed the present plight of farmers and just what tlucy, tluerselveà, were trying ta, do since formation cf flueir county Federa- tion. But there was somxething lacking. Sa it was conceivcd that toa aclieve suc- cess in ifs fullest sense, there was but anc tling ta do, and. that was ta recagnize that thse rural cornmunity was organizcd on ifs spiritual side by the Churcli and an the eecanmic side by sucis organizations as the F»dcration and Women 's Institutes. That bath of these had develaped social sides and now ahl should join tagether cooperafively, thus ta aclieve a real "fullncss" o! corn- mnunity life. One of flic most prnmising in- dications of succeos was the fact that the meeting was inter-denominational. Simply a group met ta discuso flic "noIe o!fluhe Churcis within flue present rural situation." Meet- ings were held bath in flue churclu and in flue Co-op Hall. Much discussion hinged upan flue study groups undertaken by flue Federafian. This, was enlarged upan by flue representative of thse Women 's Institut c, and finally a ten- tative plan was worked out as ta luow the Ohurcli could fit inta flue picture. It was thauglut that flue Ohurcli cauld contibute in three ways: Thiauglu messages direct fnom flue pulpit; fhrougli aid and encouragement ta study clubs, and as an Institution through Boards and Caolleges. Thus tawn and country would be brought clouer together, soially and econornically, under cooperative spiritu- al leadership. The Statesman is indebfed ta fthe Barrie Examiner for full reports on this far-seeing rnovernent and recommeds ta it those cor- rcspanding elements in tl4is community. -V -v Canada'At War Thc second article dealing wif lu fle editors tour caverixîg Canada 's war effort, writtcn by Bruce M.
