WOMEN’S INSTITUTE (Confined from page one) the farm ; using Hydro on the farm and how to make the most of it; market ing gardening ; how to make farm life more attractive; discuss the choice of a small or large farm. Mrs, White gave the report on edu- cation. No lesson is taught till it is put into action. “Community Life Training Institute” issues a bulletin well worth studying, write to David Smith, Sf. Vincent St,, Barrie, for a copy. “The Modern World is a book which is being studied in one Branch. Science and literature should be studied more with co- operation between teachers and pu- pils is desirable. Some Branches visit the schools, some donate books or money, or give prizes for composi- tion in- Continuation 'Schools or give donations for music or musical fes- tivals, hang copies from the best ar- tists in the schools. Scrap books were made of the coronation, books added to the library. Temperance education had its place. The life of Francis Willard was read. One Branch had a report on the OÆ.A. convention. Other branches had papers on, “the story of the Insti- tute for the blind,” “course oif the new curriculum,” “character build- ing,” “etiquette,” “pioneers of On- tario,” -“what is expected of chil- dren,” “how to file clippings,” “why study music,” “organized recreation,” “home handicraft,” “co-operative programme,” “a talk on magazines,” “the Mendelssohn Choir,” “first Canadian women in agriculture,” “living, not existing,” “temperance from a scientific standpoint,” “the handbook,” “origin of -the Bible,” “What to tune .in or out,” “women under Dictatorship, “travel talk,” “dress in costume and tell something â- of country you represent.” Debates were held on, resolved “that country â- children make better citizens than â- city children,” and resolved “that books are more helpful than maga zines and papers. Resolved “that un- married giro have a happier time than their married sisters.” Resol- ved “that written exams, be abol- ished. ‘“Resolved “that country has greater opportunities than the city.” (One Branch had a display of old â- coins). Miss Powell, President of the con- vention area of Hamilton, told us â- that child welfare means the rearing and' training of children physically, mentally, and1 spiritually. She sug- gested that we learn all verses of the â- national anthem, so we will be able -to sing them correctly when their Majesties arrive next spring. Miss McGregor, National .Secre- tary, brought us a message, wishing us continued success Wednesday evening after the as- sembly singing, the report of legis- lation was given by M rs. Clarence Hayes, of Georgetown, In the dif- ferent branches there have been dis- cussions or papers read on legaliza- tion of sweepstakes-, the duties of â- the school board, the making of wills, why laws are made and kept, how -law's are made, prison reform, par- liamentary procedure, safe driving, should divorce laws be revised, ' etc. We should know more about the property rights of women, and that 'a wife does not have to sign off â- anything for her husband’s debts, and be sure not to sign anything that â- she does not fully understand. After December 1st, all milk sold- must be pasteurized. H t is claimed that pasteurizing prevents surgical tuber- culosis1.

Good government- -consists of a good form of govern- ment, good men to administer it and public spirited citizens. You have the right to vote, use it. Mrs. C'ooper, of.

His father was. born in Montreal, His grandfather, Earl Elgin, was Gover- nor-General- of Canada in 1847. Lord Elgin is judging Aberdeen Angus cattle at the Royal Winter Fair. (If he were in a crowd of farmers you would not pick him out as being -much different from the rest). When he was ushered Into the convention room, followed by Lady Elgin and their daughter, still1 in her teens I should judge, we all stood . -and gave the Obautaugua 'salute and re- mained standing . while they were greeted and.
