Miss || | Martin is a Canadian girl, a grand- |daughtef of the late Archbishop | Hamilton, Ottawa, a member of the | parish of Christ Church Cathedral, | Hamilton, and since early childhood | one of the girls of the Cathedral |G.F.8, She emphasized the fact that | the object of the society was the at- | tainment of a high standard of wom- | anhood; developed by prayer and ser- | | vice, | minds the pdssession of the young woman- hood. of the land. Branches have leaders and associates, older girly or women, who interest the younger girls. The very little girls are candidates, The parochial branches | formed work in any way they may | decide, for parochial objects, "Healthy bodies, wholesome and holy spirits" should be || | | missions, working towards thé build- | ling of lodges in the cities where girls jcan have homes and recreation rooms, where under the kindly su- || | pervision of an older woman they | may bring their men friends, and "holiday houses," where for six dol- {lars a week to members a healthful | holiday may be spent in the summer. "To do something to help others to be better and to be better yourself," | said the young secretary, "is what we |try to do." In England the mem- bership is over 300,000, and during the war great work was done in mu- nition centres, providing canteens for the wofkers, and was also done in Toronto by several of the branches in the hall of a Presbyterian church j near 4 large plant. In the United | States there are over one 'thousand | branches of this world-wide society, and a girl leaving Canada or Eng- land for New York has a welcome awaiting her from the G. F 8, a wel- come which is her right to claim as a member of this society. In Paris, Rome, Moscow, India, China, the work goes on, adapting itself to local conditions ignoring any social dif- || ference, ranking all girls living pure lives and earning their living hon- estly, alike eligible for membership in this great society, founded forty- five years ago in an English village, now become a wonderful power for good in the world, The several Anglican parishes were well represented at the meeéet- ing and much interest was taken in the work of the Girls' Friendly So- Rev.

Savary was in the chair and introduced the speaker. ------------------ Word was received in the city on Friday last of the seribdg illness in Chicago, Ill., of Miss Anna Mur- ray, daughter of Wm.
