Young People's Union The meeting of the Y. P. U on MEERING One of the most -pleasant events of the year, in connection with the United Church, is the W.M.S. supper meeting. Fhe meal that is provided is excellent; the company is happy; and the program of special value because talented speakers on missionary topics are secured. The affair on Wednesday evening filled all these requirements. After an enjoyable sing-song led by Miss Grace Davis, the speaker of the even- ing, Miss Dorothy Pearson, was intro- duced by Mrs. Geo, Jackson, who pre- sided. Miss Pearson charmed her audience by her frank naturalness. Her picture of India, in its present political tur- moil, showed how great a task con- fronts the British people if they are to maintain their r that castern continent, . Added to the terrific disputes be- tween the people of India, Miss Pear- son pointed out that the other-worldly idealism of such men as Ghandi and Stanley Jones greatly hampered the practical settlement of the many pro- blems that must be faced before peace can be secured. Her praise of the loyalty of the Indian Christians was most whole- hearted. They are prepared to suffer for their Christian faith, a matter that does not appear to be so evident in Canadian church circles. Miss Pearson's costume deseriptions and her stories of actual contact with lower type Indian children, were most interesting, Evidently humanity is much the same the world over, and more so, Costumes are two-piece -- the sari and the petticoat. From these fashions change from time to time withoiit ex- 'ftra cutting or sewing. - The_evening was most enjoyable and informative, $ THANK YOU Two letters have been received from (} c e r people of Port Perry for their gener- ous response to the appeal for funds.

Mr. MacMillan, on behalf of the Y, P. U. for his interesting address." Then came a spell of "community singing, led by Dorothy Balfour and with Dorothy Williams at the piano.

INOUE OVER PS BLIND MAN'S YEAR (By Warwick Deeping) (Book Review by Irene Mulligan) Living in a world of her own cre- ation, Rosamund, whose books were of the best seller rank, had two hob- bies, her writing and her garden; and one obsession, --an_ over-dcute self- consciousness, which created emotional problems when Clive, an airman, crashed in her garden. Fate was to prove cruel, for the accident left Clive blind. Yet each had an affection for the other and marriage developed a fuller life for both. 1t makes an enthralling story. easily read and rich in sympathy balanced in its entirely human reactions, a story which will well add to the al- ready great reputation of; its author. The scenes are laid in Sussex and Chelsea. The subsidiary characters are drawn with skill and sureness which always enrich Warwick Deep- ing's work. 1 ~ Surprise Party.
