The first annual convention of the Women's Associations of the Lindsay Presbytery since organized in May, "1936, was held in the United Church, of Omemee on Thursday, June 17th, 1937. There were eighty-nine regist- ered for the morning session, many more coming in for the afternoon session. In the morning session, Mrs. Moyer, of Omemee led in community singing, with Miss Race at the organ. Mrs. Lehigh, of Kinmount, president of the W. A. of Lindsay Presbytery, pre- sided. The repregentatives-from the Green- bank W. A. took charge of the de- votional period. Mrs. Jackson, Presi- dent, gave an excellent talk on Friend- ship--friendship with God, friendship with others, friendship with our fel- lowman. Mrs. E. Leask offered a short prayer. Mrs. Craighead, Lind- say, Secretary of the W. A. of Lind- say Presbytery called the roll repeat- ing it again in the afterhoon for the benefit of those who could not be present in the morning: Fenelon Falls had the largest representation, num- bering 18, with Valéntia 10 and Green- bank' 9, being the two next highest, Mrs. Eagleson, Seagrave, treasurer, gave a splendid report for our first ear, showing a balance on hand of $33.24. igh, Kinmount, report- « A. members in the Lindsay . Mrs) Craighead in the Secretary's tf dwelt chiefly on the W. A, rally at Fenelon Falls in August, 1936. A financial committee consisting of Rev. Mr. McTavish, Omemee, Mrs. Eagleson, Seagrave, Mrs. Vanderbury, Sebright, Mrs. Thurston, Bobcaygeon, Mrs. Puterbough, Norland, and Mrs. Ashmore, Emily, was appointed to deal with some questions along the financial line whieh had arisen. An invitation to hold the rally at Bobcaygeon this year was very much appreciated, arrangements being left in the hands of the executive. At a meeting of the executive at the close of the afternoon session, it was de- cided not to hold a rally this year. Mrs. Emmerson, of Kinmount, gave a splendid talk on "What I, a member of the Junior W. A. can do for the Church." This Junior W. A. in a Church helps to reach those girls and young women with whom we do not come in contact in the senior W. A. Of course in some churches, the younger women meet with the senior women, other churches have, a Girls' Club, C.G.LT,, ete. But in cases where there is no such organization, it is a splendid idea to work up a Junior W. A. It is not what the Church can do for us, but what we can do for the church. . In making a report of the societies as a whole, Mrs, Craighead had writ- ten B7 associations. for a report. I wonder just why only 30 of these re- plied. TI hope the other 27 will be- come interested enough before. the next convention to let Mrs. Craighead have a full report so we may be able to exchange more ideas. Twenty- eight of these thirty societies were \ [s called Women's Associations, two were called Ladies' Aid and intend to remain such. : At this point may I say Mrs. Craig- head has a great deal of writing to do for this W. A. and she is exceedingly faithful in her work, so do try to be just a little more faithful with your own responsibility. Rev. Mr. Lehigh led in the discus- sion period. In the discussions of the Junior W. A. work we find we have one in Minden, and one in Kinmount; but several other churches have Girls' Clubs, ete., which is very much along the same line. Four of the seven Presbyteries of the Bay of Quinte Conference have organized their Women's Associations. Mrs. Tiers, of Fenelon Falls made a motion asking for recognition in the Presbytery. ' We find those who have used the topic cards during the past months find them very helpful and new ones will be issued in the near future. Rev. Mr. Rowland, of Mark Street United Church, Peterboough, spoke many appreciating and encouraging words to the association. He .men- tioned the never failing interest of women in connection with every phase of church work. ~~ The greatest good we can achieve is to do good. We must give of our very best to benefit most from what we give. We must always have vital contact with the un- seen, Mr. Rowland egpressed great pleasure at meeting with the women, especially in the church of his boy- hood, and was very pleased to find though we are looked on as more of a 3 Sian: UES RR RET Shr ae 55, financial organization we do not ne- glect the spiritual. = At the close of the morning session, the Women's Association of Omemee served a very substantial and delight- 'ful dipner in the baesment of the | Church for the sum of 35¢. a person. At the beginning of the afternoon session Mrs. Moyer again led in' the singing of two familiar hymns.. Ow- ing to the absence of those respons. ible for the- devotional period, Val- &ntia Association came forward and volunteered their services. Mrs. Starr, president, presided, with Mrs. Cham- bers and Mrs. Mark assisting. After the devotional period, Mrs. Craighead repeated the roll call for the benefit of the late arrivals. - Mrs. Puterbough of Norland report- ed the meeting of-the finance commit- tee which had met immediately after dinner. The following items were recommended: 1. Presbyterial association to pay travelling expenses amounting to 5 cents per mile of'delegates. car from missions to convention. ) ! 2. Each society pay or help to pay the transportation -of their own dele- gates to convention. 3. Presbyterial agreed to pay $5.00 toward Rev. and Mrs, Lehigh's travel- ling expenses during the past year. Two ladies from the Fenelon Falls association favoured with a pleasing duet, "Give Me Thine' Heart." Rev. Mr. McTavish and Rev. Mr, Lehigh took charge of the communion service assisted by Rev.. Mr. Wolfraim of Janetville, Rev. Mr, Vanderburg of Sebright, Rev. Mr, Sterling, Fenelon a Falls and Rev. Mr. Wilkinson, Duns- ford. A SE Mrs. Poulson, Kinmount, rendered a most pleasing solo "Heaven is My Home," ' Mrs. Wand, of Peterborough, was} . guest speaker for the afternoon ses sion." We were pleased to again listen to Mrs. Wand, who assisted in the or- ganization of the Association last year. She always has a message, She repeated the theme of the Women's Association. She chose as her text II Corinthians 4:8, "We are troubled on every side but not distressed. We are perplexed but not in despair." she stressed several peints which help to make our work easier: Love, Patience, thoroughness in work, it is easier to be a good follower than a good, leader; - think things through hard, straight and always; be ready for life's problems; do not neglect tue problem, our duty to the Church, if a woman gives twelve hours a year to the Women's Association she still will have 8748 hours left to do with .as she chooses; how can a woman help the Church? What do I want? Why do I it? What will I do with it when I get it? What are we going to do to make the world a better place to live in? the golden rule will never be out of date. In closing Mrs, Wand made the following remarks: "We must see the work through, and then pick up the chips." : Mrs, Tiers of Fenelon Falls very capably took charge of the round table conference and we listened to many interesting ways of financing our as- sogjations, Mrs, Tiers asked that in .. PORT PERRY, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, JULY 1st, 1087 spite of the stress placed on the fin- ancial part we must not neglect the devotional period. Rev. Mr. Sterling of Fenelon Falls, spoke words of encouragement to the women and expressed his pleasure and appreciations, Two represent. atives "from Valentia and two from Fenelon Falls was given the honour of taking up the collection, after which Mrs, Craighead offered prayer. ' Mrs. Vanderburg, Sebright, gave a report of the nominating committee which is as follows: : . Hon, Presidents, Rev. Mr. Lehigh, Kinmount, Rev. Mr. Sterling, Fenelon Falls; President, Mrs. Lehigh, Kin- mount; 1st Vice, Mrs. Graham," Oak- wood; 2nd- Vice, Mrs. A.

Mr, Black, of Cambridge St. Church, Lindsay, took charge of the installation of officers, Mrs. Hardy,-of Oakwood, spoke on behalf of the W.C.T.U., asking that each association make room on the program of their monthly meetings for temperance.' Mrs. Jordon, Fenelon Falls, in a few well" chosen words on behalf of the W. A. Executive, delegates and ali who had gathered, extended to. the minister, Rev. Mr, McTavish, his as- sistants, the ladies of Omemee, and all who had-assisted in the program, a very hearty vote of thanks for their kind hospitality and delightful dinner. ~ Rev. Mr. Wolfraim, .of Janetville, also spoke very kindly of the work done by the women in connection with the church work. Rev. Mr, Stinson, of Oakwood, an- nounced the Boys' and Girls' Camps at Victoria Camp, Balsam Lake; Boys' Camp from July 1-8, under the super- vision. of Mr. Stinson, and the Girls' Camp from July 8-156 under the super- vision of Msr. (Rev.) Vanderburg, of Sebright. We hope many will be able to take advantage of this splendid out- ing at the small cost of $3.00 per week, | The convention will be held in Oak- wood in 1938. MARSH HILL 8 » Road work has been the order of the day around here for the last while, : Mr. Douglas Lancaster, St. Mary's, was a visitor with Wilmot Swanick last week.
