Reports of the committees of th affiliated societies of the city. Mrs. Hugh Fraser, the president, occupied | the chair. } The reports were very satisfactory | and resume of the year's work of the! council by the corresponding secretary, Miss A. M. Machar, was very encour- | aging. In presenting the report, Miss | Machar noted that this was the sev- enteenth year the council has held an | important and honorable place in Can {ada. The local branch has been fort: | unate in having the same president all | that time, Mrs. Hugh Fraser, who mdiciously guided its course, never be ing absent from a meeting, The work of the council includes the work of the [federated societies. The first introduc tion of sewing and domestic. science classes in the schools, the suppression of impure reading matter, and the ben- eficial services of the Victorian nurse all had their origin in the Woman's | councils it has also made appeals to the city council for swimming baths for the children: for the enforcement of regulations do keep them off the streets at late hours, and for the cen- sorship of moving picture shows. The | report also showed what had been | done (0 assist in the proper treatment | stamping out of tuberculosis, and - to improve the social and pusi- ness life of Canada. A resolution was mowed hy Cochrane and Miss Strange, und (opted, expressing the regret of the jeouncil in losing one of ils hard-work- {ing members and honorary vice-presis (dent, the Tate Mrs. W. Skinner, and (extending the sympathy of the eoun teil with the deceased's family. | The annual reports of the affiliated societies of the city were read, and {showed the beneficial work they are doing.

On account © bumigration limitations these Sikh are not allowed to' bring their wive and children into Canada, and as thes are home-loving men, they feel thi very strongly. A lively discussion took place, Miss Machar holding tha the Sikhs were loyal go the Britis' crown, and if we'call ourselves Chris tions, it was our duty to help these our brothers, in their endeavors t. bring their wives into Canada.
