Convention Held at Kimberley The 20th annual convention of 'Women's Institutes for Grey County wax held in Kimberl -y on Thur.iday, ' Au(f. 12th. The morninK sestdon was opened with Scripture readinK and prayer by Kev. Stotcsbury. M;-.s. A. A. Thomp- son welcomed the delegates by gflvinK a cheerful forecast of the day's pro- ceedings, by drawinK attention to the thiiiRs conducive to the enjoyment of the day, such as the beautiful scenery on upproachinK the valley in which Kimberley is situated, the splendid c'liiit'ort and convenience of the co;,)- iiiuiiity Hull in which the sessions wcro to be held, the proKram v.'ith its treat in store' lull of well known i:ames of capable speakers and siiiK- eis. An equally suitab; _â-  reply was Riven by Mrs.i l.)anard of Keinble. .iir.s. Jlolliday of Mt. Forest, County ('resident, addressed the convention icviewinjf tlie work ol the year. iirs. a. J. LuiiK of Meaford, the efficient secretary, read the niinutej of last yeai, wnich was followed !)y dia- cusfeion and new busine.^s. Commun- ity sinjfinK was beKU.'i by rendering '•ihe Little Brown Churcn." All the old ofiiceij Were re-elected by accla- iiialion. Mrs. Thomas Frizell, representative for North Grey, Kavo a most excell- ent paper on the proper appreciation of music. A iolo was rendered by -Mi.ss Justina Elli.; in her usual plea- :,i;is .style. M>-s. h. C. Hockridge, representative for Centre Grey, also save :i solo in.Ucad of an address, by refiueet. AlthouKh a bountiful repast was prepared by the Kimber- ley ladies tKc crowd that came to par- take of it seemed overwhelming, it reijuired much presence of mind to .maintain poise of maimer on the part of the hoste.-ises and led them to wish that the day of miracles was not past. However, the company smile was permanent, even tiirouph- out the long supper. After the preliminary opening ot the afternoon ser.sion, the reports of the three districts were given. Mrs. A. X. Taylor spoke for North Grey -Mrs. Hawken for Centre Grey and Mrs. Macllraith for South Grey. A collection was taken up to'- provide funds for the county treasury, am- ounting to S24.54. .All J. Wm. Rodgcrs, representative for South Grey, gave a splendid aC- drcss, stressing the importance o: women taking care of their health by av;iid ' ig doing things whicli they know are detrimental to health, such as overdoing, drinking tea, wearing insuitable clothing, not taking rest periods. She advijed visiting the schools and seeing where our children spend their time and how they spend it. Many other community efforts were advised, as well as private eff- orts, and advising women to compel thair.^clvos to read more. -Mrs. .\itken f:f Beeton, government lecturer made a very appealing ad- dress." telling of the need of more co-operation in many ways. She told of egg circles in Oxford county and egg pools in .-Mberta. Mrs. Aitken asked the women to looJi into the fact that Siincoe couivtv and Grey showed the highest death rate in mothers and infants under one year than any other place in the world. She ventured the thought that perhaps [ mothers lack "needed help and so health suffers, so that added burd- I ens cann- be bornc,and hence so much fatality. .\n artiotically rendered solo given by Miss Nellie Burritt called forth I continuad applause untiJ respondeiJ to. Miss Burritt has a voice thai shows unuoual talent and training. Miss Agne.; MePhail spoke on the laws affecting women. Miss McPhail drew attention to the fact that as women are now citizens, that all laws which affect men affect women. There were some changes worthy of note, one being that a woman is an equal guardian to her children since lil23; that a widow can claim one thousand dollars and one-third of the value of her husband's property if he dies intestate, that is if she has children. ' The remaining two- thirds goes to her children, of course. Law.-, affecting marriage were men- tioned, also laws prohibiting marriage of the feeble minded. Jlrs. Banks of Shelburno, who is Federal representative for Duffcrinh and Grey, explained federation and reported on her visit to the sent of government in Toronto, and how she appealed to the Hydro Commission for cheap hydro power for farmers and their wives, so that they could produce more at cheaper ra:es and with less man power and woman power. Mrs. Banks' addresj was full of force and it is to be hoped that the Nision she holds will some day be a reality. The convention was closed by sing- ing the National Anthep. DETOl'kS "ONWARD" NEWS Alarge crowd attended the "Hold- fast's garden party held at Mrs.} P. ' Muir's on Tuesday of laJt week. The play ''A Fortunate Calamity", by North Lihe talent, was a winner.

FERRIS. Fleshertftn. That the Department of Highways instead of the contr.tctor is this year to keep in condition the detours on all g«yernmcnt roads will be gratify- ing to most motorists. Some of the detours in the past have been horrors in the day time and nightmares in the later hours. They have been dreaded by drivers of horse dra«-n vehicles, to say nothing of car driv- ers of automatic power. The average contractor's inteiest in a detour gen- erally ceased when he constructed a rickety bridge over an otherwise im- passable ditch and hung a red lan- tern on it, or let down a fence to permit cars to pass oydr furrows and ridgej as best they might. De- tour conditions heretofore have been deplorable and in wet weather well nigh impassable and it was high time that the government did some- tSiing to ameliorate the situation. â€" Grand Valley SUr and Vidette.
