For hoods are the thing, and the "Little Red Riding- hood" jacket of Pattern 4488 is most captivating. The elfin hood is stitched to the jacket in back and ties' under the chin with a perky bow. The little sunfrock is adorable too. It's in panelled style and takes a Jiffy to stitch up with the Sew- ing Instructor's help. The straps may be in bright contrast; ric-rac adds, an extra merry note. A gay idea is to line both jacket and hood in contrast, to match the dress. Pattern 4488 is available in chil- dren's sizes 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10. Size 6, dress, takes 1% yards 35 inch fab- ric and 2% yards ric-rac; dress and hood and jacket lining, 2% yards 35 inch fabric and jacket, 1% yards contrast.

The Scrip ure portion, John | 5: 1-9, was read by Mrs. J. Dugan. The message from the Scripture read was given by Mrs. P. Taylor, wha pointed out in these passages, the misery of sin, the mercy of Christ, Christ's method of healing, and the marvellous result of this healing. We who have been born again, know what it means to be lif ed out of the misery of sin and disease, and to be filled with the love of Christ, We should count it our duty and privilege as Chris- tians to give out the glorious gospel of Christ, which is "The power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth." We should be witnesses for Him. After a season of prayer for our sick ones, Mrs. W. Tonkin and Mrs. V. Brooks sang a duet, "When I Think of His Love for Me". Mrs. Nightingale closed the meeting with prayer. LEGION AUXILIARY The ladies auxiliary of the Cana- dian Legion, Branch 43, BESL, met Tuesday evening for a short business meeting.

A definite date has not been set, but it will be in the very near future. Place and date will be given at the next meeting.

Mrs. Jennie Walker, president of the local branch presented Mrs. Peacock as the guest speaker at the supper table, and in Mrs. Walker's address of welcome she gave a com- prehensive survey of the work ac- complished By the local unit, since their commencement in October last yébr, and assured the visitor that they would endeavor te do more if at all possible in the coming privilege of serving in this humble capacity, those who at home end overseas, were doing much valiant | service for King and country.

Mrs. Peacock gave a very informative address, and related many instances where individuals, and groups of soldiers had given ex- pressions of appreciation for sef™ vices rendered by the women's aux- iliary, not only in the matter of providing new necessary articles for their comfort, in mending suits, and other wearing apparel, but bring- ing rds of counsel, and helpfus advice in hours of temptation, men- tal depression or homesickness. Tha inspiration received from religious service had been of greet value to the soldiers, and was bearing fruit | in helping to establish contact with their homes. She urged her hear- ers to continue their work and to take every opportunity «#0 bring comfort to the many who are feel- ing the burden of home responsi- bilities and the loneliness of having to carry on in the absence of faih- ers and brothers who are serving King and country. Mrs. Douglas Murray, president of one of the north Toronto branches of the auxiliary, accompanied Mrs. Colonel Peacock, and sang & couple of solos which were greatly appre- ciated, especially the very fine rend- ering of "Therell' Always Be An England." Mrs. Brigadier Knight, who is an active worker in the headquarters group, was &lso a wel- come visitor. In bringing the gathering to a close, Mrs. Walker thanked the na- tional president for her splendid | address and again assured her that this group would endeavor to mea- sure up to every expectation, and included Mrs. Murray in her vote of thanks. All members endorsed her expression of thanks. Mrs. Major Watkin and Mrs. David Owen were the conveners of the supper, and all were greatly ap- preciative of their work, and did justice to the fare provided. After the singing of "God Save The King," Mrs. H. Gentry closed the gathering in prayer.
