PAGE FOURTEEN THE ONTARIO DIOCESEW.A. REPORTS OF THE WORK DONE DURING THE YEAR. Bt. George's Hall Was Crowded on Wordnesday Evening to Hear the Addresses Given by leading Offi cers. "one Norman Fraser, secretary of the Babies' Branches, presented" a splendid report. Eighteen branches with a membership of 329, had an of- fering in their boxes of $112. They will join with the font roll and their name will be rather a long one. Little Helpers of the I'cnt Roll and Babies' branch of the W. A. The Wednesday afternoon session of the Ontario Diocese Woman's Auxiliary was very interesting, the President's address came first on the programme, and was most earnest and encouraging, thanking = the branches for their co-operation and help, she went on to say that this was the most wonderful year in the Canadian church. The call had come * to "Go Forward" and as one the people had responded to it, as the men had a few years ago to the call of the Empire. By prayer and sacri- fice the objective had been attained, but it would be in vain if it were "Riot the beginning of a réal spirftuat awakening, and of a growth in the zeal and devotion of the individual members, The W. A. had grown in .the diocese, there being 264 mem- bers, 143 more than last year, but we look to the younger women and girls, the President said. On them depends the work of the future, to them comes the call at the time of woman's great opportunity when every door has been thrown open to her. Miss Macauley thanked the offi- cers for their loyalty and assistance, and expressed deep regret at the resignation of Miss Daly, the corres- ponding secretary. A pleasing little ceremony 'follow- ed the president's address, when five new life members of the Ontario board were called to the platform to receive their gold W. A. pins and to be admitted to life-long service Jn the organization. They were Mrs. J. H. H. Coleman, Napanee; Mrs. Pringle, Sandhurst, and Mrs. Easton Burns, Mrs. dePencier Wright and Mrs. Rooney, Kingston. The reports of the Diocese officers were then presented. Miss Marion Lewis, treasurer, reported total 're- ceipts $4,792.17, an increase: of $235.00 since 1919. Of this $1,- 510.12 was given to the special In- dian and Eskimo endowment fund. The Diocesian apportionment 'was $1,800 or $300 more than last yer. The plan of apportioning the re- quirements of this fund among the branches so successful last year was again adopted, with the result that the apportionment was fully met. Miss Katherin€ Lyman, Secretary for junior work, reported one new branch formed at Frankford, at pres- ent there are 13 junior branches with a membership of 302, or 22 more than 1919. ! Miss Edith Van Stanbenzie, Can- didates and Girls' Secretary, report- ed one candidate for the Mission field in training at the Stringwauk Home and one ready to train as soon as her family conditions will admit of it. The girls have 12 branches, with a membership of 229. In connection with the Junior work, Mrs. Shore Loynes, Napanee, agked the question, "What is being done for the boys?" She sald she Was always interested in the boys Just getting too big for Sunday school, and thought some effort should be made to interest them in the active work of the church. She felt their contribution would be worth while. Of her Sunday school class, twenty-two had joined the colors and had served on the eastern and western fronts. Six of them had been at the base together one Sun- day, and had writteh to her that they wished she was with them to teach them as of old. It was felt that some definite step should be taken to keep Such lads working actively in the cause of Christ. During the reading of the reports, Mrs. Donaldson, of Toronto, the Dominion treasurer, ar- rived_and was given a hearty wel- come. A pleasant moment came when the president asked Miss Daly to come forward, and presented her with a Dominion life membership, given by the branches in token of their loving appreciation of her services. Miss Mgcaulay then pinned on the bar to the W.A. gold cross of the diocesan lite membership, and gave her a certificate beautifully engraved by J. H. Birkett, Mrs. T. W. Reynolds, of Brock- ville, diocesan chairman of the For- ward Movement, then gave an inter- esting talk on "Some Aspects of the Forward Movement." The meeting then adjourned -to the class room, A ------ tit. \ 284 Ontario St, 4 | | .. portunitie by the W.A. of St. John's, Luke's, of where' te St. Mark' Fort: Kingston The evening meeting was at sight o'clock, with Archdeacon Dobbs the chair.

Hig ambition is to have a complete translation of the New Testament to put into the hands of "my Eskimos," "the most ambitious people in Canada," so that in time a native ministry could be formed to spread the Gospel in that land of ice and snow, the uttermost. part of the earth." Archdeacon Dobbs closed the meeting with the benediction. At Thursday morning's session some of the reports left over from Wednesday were presented. Miss Louise Kirkpatrick, the Dorcas sec- retary, presented a really splendid report. Total amount spent in bales, $3,120.12; in church and school fur- nishing, $172.17; total Dorcas work, $3,292.28, an increase over last year of $1,013. Sixty-three bales were sent, nine more than last year. Many expressions of appreciation came from the floor of the house of the ex- cellent work of the Dorcas secretary. Mrs. Thomas Leech, Wolfe Island, the E.C.D. secretary, reported $94 to be voted on 'at the annual meeting. Mrs. Donaldson. Dominion trea- surer, 'was the speaker of the morn- ing, and gave an exhaustive talk on the financial needs of the W.A, Miss McGregor, of Prescott, moved a vote of thanks to Mrs. Donaldson, which was seconded by Miss Betts, of St. John's, Portsmouth, and car- ried. The thank offering was announced as $1,287.70, after which the dox- ology was sung. The dean took the noon day ser- vice, but before beginning he an- nounced the passing of an old and faithful member of the W.A., Mrs. A. W, Cooke, widow of the late Canon Cooke, and mother of Rev. Alfred Cooke, rector of Barriefield. The financial budget for the year is $130,000. The treasurer's books close on April 30th. : St. Paul's hospital, shortly to be opened in Honan, China, will be the only hospital among 8,000,000 peo- ple, and needs a woman doctor.

It is easier to make garments in the meetings here than for tired workers in the mission schools. Rev. W. G. Walton is to speak to- night and show lantern views of work among the Esquimaux.

EDWARDS ATTACKS THE GRAIN GROWERS. | West Lambton Members Exposes the | So-called Luxury Taxes From a New Angle--How Cost of Living | Affected. : | be arraignment of the Government's | | "luxury taxes" has been made In| | the budget debate than the scathing | | criticism made of them in the Com- | {mons yesterday by Fred F. Pardee, Liberal member for West Lambton. | Mr. Pardee exppsed the so-called luxury taxes from a new angie in a short but telling address. He reduc- ed the various imposts to dollars and cents on a long list of the everyday necessaries of life. When this was |done it was surprising to see just | how far the high tariff is responsible | tor the cost of living, Mr. Pardes also threw some light. on the reason for the high cost of clothing. He quoted statistics to show the enormous profits that had been made by the various textile in- dustries in Canada during the last two or three years. He pointed out that all those industries enjoyed a high protection tariff which enabled them to sell their products at big prices. Thelr average wage bills had AILY BRITISH WHIG Ottawa; May 2T~No more severe been remarkably small, and Mr. Par- dee gave the figures. Food could be made cheaper only by greater production, Mr. Pardee said. He therefore urged that the tariff on agricultural implements should be reduced and that food- stuffs and clothing should be ad- mitted free. Dr. J. W. Edwards (Frontenac) delivered a two-hour address. He claimed that the Conservatives had done more than the Liberals to lower the tariff on agricultural implements. Acceptance of the Fielding amend- ment would mean an election in the country, and much turmoil, which he deplored. It was a kind of "de- lusional insanity" which made the Liberals still think that they were right in the position they took in 1911. Dr. Edwards directed his atten- tion to the. Grain Growers' Company and the Grain Export Company of New York. He characterized the Grain Growers as the most colossal profiteering concern in the country. "While the farmers farm the farms, they farm the farmers," he declared. OBITUARY The Late Mrs. A. W. Cooke. Shortly after five o'clock, Wednes- day afternoon, Mrs. A. W. Cooke, widow of the late Canon Cooke, pass- ed quietly away at her son's home, "The Rectory," Barriefield. Mrs. Cooke was born at Halifax in 1837 and, like many other old Haligoni- ans was connected, both on her mother's and father's side, with the early naval history of that port. She was a descendant of the old Le Cain family on her mother's side, and her father, Felix King, was a naval of- ficer in the admiralty dock yard. It was here in old commissioner's house, an historical land mark of Halifax, where Mrs. Cooke was born. The late Mrs. Cooke was one of those kindly, thoroughly controlled ladies of the old school. Whilst a lover of wholesome gaiety, her heart and energies were ever devoted chiefly to the duties of her home and church. The mother of a large family, Mrs. Cooke still found time to share with the late Canon Cooke on many points in the Diocese of Ontarie, in the sometimes arduous yet glorious ser- vice as a true ambassador of Christ. | She leaves a family of four daugh- ! ters : Mrs. John Webster, Hamilton; Mrs. Herbert Horsey, Ottawa; Mrs. J. F. Pringle, Montreal, and Miss Constance at home. Three sons liv- ing are : F, A. Cooke, San Francisco, Cal.; Edward A. Cooke, Victoria, B. C.; and Rev, A. Oldacre Cooke, rector of 8t. Mark's church, Barriefield. One son, Reginald, died in early youth. The funeral takes place from St. Marks church, Barriefield, on Friday afternoon, at 2.30 o'clock, new time. INCIDENTS OF THE DAY.

Dewart, liberal leader in the House today, threatened to kill the estimates of the Ontario board of license commis- sioners by moving an amendment when they come up for concurrence. The license board, he declared, was nothing more than a large liquor- dealing business instead of a medi- cal dispensary. Objections to Hon. R. W. Rollo's, amendments to the workmen's com- pensation act were made this morn- ing by a deputation consisting of Col. W. B. Kingsmill, Canadian counsel for the Michigan Central, and Angus McMurchy representing the C.P.R., They submitted that the consolida- tion of all funds under the act for payment of maintenance to widows would react unfairly on permanent companies in that they would fre- quently be 'called upon to pay the share of firms which go out of busi- ness and leave the widows of em- ployees to be supported.

It cares for many hundreds of lit- tle children who through affliction or otherwise are bereft of parental care and the helpful Influences of home. The cost of feeding and cloth- ing these little ones has greatly in- creased during the past few years, so that the society's funds, once suf- ficient to maintain the institution, are now woefully inadequate. The hard-working ladies find it necessary to raise many thousands of dollars each year, and on Saturday they are making a special appeal to the pub- lic of Kingston. Such a worthy cause is deserving of generous support. It is to be hop- ed that the people of the city will contribute generously on Saturday. Purchased Robinson Property.
