TINY TOTS ENJOY ANNUAL TEA PARTY Cradle Roll Children of Simcoe St. United Church Entertained Yesterday At Simcoe United Church, on June 17th, was held an event hap- pily anticipated by wee tots and their mothers namely, the annual "Cradle Roll Tea Party". The staid lecture room Was transformed "into a nursery play- room, gay with a profusion of spring flowers, peonies, fragrant orange blossoms and masses of daisies. On a bright carpet, surrounded by an admiring circle of watch. ful mothers, sprawled the tiniest guests, abundantly entertained by harmless toys, provided by thoughtful friends. : Older children danced merrily "Round. the Mulberry Bush", "Gathered Nuts in May" and played other games dear to the heart "of childhood. June sunshine, pretty flowers, gaily dressed ¢ !'dren with happy faces, all made. picture long to be remembered. Yet a more permanent souvenir of the occa- sion than the "picture that hangs on Memory's Wall", may have been secured by Rev. Ernest Har- ston, in his several attempts to capture, by Kodak, the charms of the scores of very youthful, and therefore exceedingly = restless, guests, assembled on the church lawn. The welcome call to supper brought the guests in, to gather around gaily decked low tables, ill spread with dainties provided. and served by the members of the "Ever Ready Bible Class." Each child carried home, as a souvenir of the happy occasion a unique blue-bird box of confec- tionery. There was once a discussion as to rhymes and someone challenged the company to find a rhyme for "porringer." Immediately there came back Ainger's rejoiner: "The Princess Mary fain would wed, They gave the Prince of Orange her, And now it never can bg said, I've not a rhyme for 'porringer.'"' » WHEN YOU ARE HOT AND TIRED TRY A GLASS OF COLD The Fresh 431 Simcoe Street South » It is an ideal Thirst-quencher and Pick-me-up Oshawa Dairy Milk : IS ESPECIALLY GOOD Superior Flavour is the result of proper methods and constant care.

Burgess Some' folk are filled with craft and guile And mischief plan they smile, --Old Mother Nature. e'en when Some distance from Prairie- dog Town lived a couple of Old Man Coyote's relatives, as crafty a pair of Coyotes as ever hunted for a living. They were Mr. and Mrs. Speedfoot, famous in all that region for their speed. All Coyotes are good runners, but ever since he had first started out to shift for himself Speedfoot had been able to outrun any of his tribe. When at last he had met and fallen in love with Mrs. Speedfoot he found a mate al- most as swift of foot as himself. And they were as crafty and sharp of wit as they were [leet of foot, so that though they had often been hunted and efforts had been made to trap them, and even to poison them, they had been too clever to be harmed. Early one morning Speedfoot and Mrs. Speedfoot started out for their daily hunt, "It is a long time since we have visited Prairie-dog Town," said Fleet- foot. "I have a feeling that tender young Prairie-dog would taste particularly good today.' "l was thinking the same thing' replied Mrs. Speedboat. "Nothing could be better, It is a long way over to the town, but a good dinner of Prairie-dog would be worth the trip. There must be a lot of half-grown youngsters there now. What do you say if Wwe go over there?" "Nothing would suit ter," replied Speedfoot. So side by side they headed for Prairie-dog Town, running easily but swiftly, Once a Jack Rabbit leaped out from almost under their noses and bounded away in terror, but they hardly glanced at him. They had set their minds on a Prairie-dog din- ner and a Prairie-dog dinner they intended to have. So they kept straight on until at last they were near the town, They could hear the barking of the unsus- pecting inhabitants, who were calling back and forth to each other, and the very sound made their mouths water. me bét- Now they stopped running and, | flattening themselves as close to ! the ground as possible, crept through the grass until they could peep over a little rise of ground overlooking the town, It was a lively scene spread before them, Pairfe-dogs were running back and forth between the houses making social calls. Others were out on the feeding grounds eating grass, Youngsters of all ages were playing about close to their homes. Here and there wise old fellows were sitting bolt up- right on their mounds to keep watch for danger. The nearest houses were those of Yap Yap ana Stubtail, Yap Yap was keep. ing watch.

'There isn't a chance to get"mear him, I certainly am glad that you came along with me today." "Why?" asked Mrs. Speedfoot. "Because what one can't do two can," replied Speedfoot. "We'll have that dinner or I am no Coyote. Listen, my dear." Speedfoot outlined a plan he had already formed. Mrs. Speed- foot listened, nodded her head. "I understand," said she. "That will work. I'll do my part ang if you are as quick as you usually are we ought to get at least two of those Prairie-dogs. Half- grown ones ae best, They are ten- der, while old ones are tough. Besides it will be easier to catch the younger ones. Let me know when you are ready." "I'm ready now. There is no use in waiting," replied Speed- foot, He flattened himself in the grass, but Mrs, Speedfoot did nothing of the kind. She got to her feet and began to move for- ward as if trying to keep out of sight, just as she would have done had she actually been trying to steal up on Yap Yap. Almost as soon as she appeared over the rise of ground Yap Yap saw her. [nstantly he whistled. It was a sharp whistle, the alarm signal, It was passed on from one watch« man to another and such a scrambling for safety as there was then. The young scampered into their houses. Those that were feeding ran to the nearest houses and dashed in, even though they were not in their own houses. In a jiffy not a Prairie-dog was to be seen save two or - three old watchmen, and as Mrs, Speedfoot bounded forward these hurriedly dived for safety. Speedfoot grin- ned and ran swiftly after Mrs. 8peedfoot, (Copyright, Burgess). 1931, by T. W. The next story: "How Craft Won a Dinner." -- WOMEN CARRYING HEAVY BURDEN | Need For Co-operation | Shown at Convention of W.L Ste Anne de Bellevue, June 19-- Every province in Canada was re- presented at the convention of the Federated Women's Institutes, meeting jointly for the first time with the Quebec Women's Insti- tutes here. Some 160 delegates are in attendance and the exchange of experiences between representatives of the East, West, and middle sec- tions of the country, not only in reports at the meetings, but in per- sonal contacts, is' one of the signi- ficant phases of the convention. Westérn women tell of unprece- dented conditions of' low prices for farm produce, crop failures in some districts, sand storms and lack of rain, but they tell also of efforts to maintain courage and hope of better times to come. One women's institute had imposcd a fine of 25 | cents on any member who mention- {ed low prices or drouglit at any of the meetings. Crucial Test The 'present time is the most cru- cial test ,the woman of Canada have had to face since the Great War, said Mrs. W, F. Cameron of Re- gina, president of the Federated Women's Institutes of Canada, in her presidential address. Mrs. Cameron pictured the condi- tions qf financial depression on the farms, aggravated by drought in large areas. Women of the W.I} she said, were standing shoulder to shoulder in .their need, and district relief had marked the program of many clubs, In the homes, the majority of women had been under a severe strain, They had had not only their manifold forms of work to do, but also the task of upholding the cour- age and cheerfulness of their fam- ilies in the face of discouragement The homemakers of the West, the speaker declared, have stood up to € What New York .

The courage that had characterized the people of Canada, from the time of the earli- est settlements, the W. I. president was sure, would not fail at this junc- ture. Mrs. Cameron gave some practical sugrestions for W. I. work in view of the present situation, emphasiz- ing the importance of looking to the welfare of the young people. In this connection, she spoke of the opportunity to promote local dram- atic societies and the like, in com- petition with the "talkies." A general survey of 'national work of the W.I. was given by Mrs, Cam- eron. A total amount of approxi- mately $200,000 had been raised for activities, sponsored by the W.I.

Miss Annie Stewart, of Grand Pie Nova Scotia, a past president of the Federated W.L, declared that the wonien's institutes were recognized throughout the country as an or. ganization, really doning something, in efforts along line for better homes and a better country, Mrs. A. H. Rogers, of Fort Sas- katchewan, recording seretary of the Federated W. I. struck a note of optimism in her short address. The provincial W. I, Treasurer, Miss Abbie S. Pritchard, of Wy- man, Que, reported for the year receipts of $756.38. and disburse- ments of $620.10 leaving a balance of $136,28. The women's memorial building fund now stands at $990.

Money was also ex- pended on scholarships, prizes in schools and to country fairs, rest rooms, cemetery improvements, building funds, ete, A keener interest in agricultural work has been aroused by contacts established through departments of agriculture and Macdonald College Resulting improvements in institute communities were to be noted, ; ork in Schools Provision of hot school lunches, medical inspection of schools, etc. were carried on by a number of un- its in the sections of child welfare and public health. Greater interest was shown in establishment of pub- lic health limits. Due to the unem- ployment situation, social service work claimed much attenton. Con- solidation of schools in more than one community was to be traced to influence of the Women's Insti- tutes in the community. The extension department of the school of household science at Mac- donald College put on several short courses in cookery and sewing, while 71 lectures and addresses were given and 16 county conventions held. During the year 17,250 miles were travelled in conducting extension work. -- SS A great many girls say "No" at first; but, like the photographer, they know how to retouch their negatives, Husband: I've got to get rid of my chaffeur; he's nearly killed me four times.
