Henderson, Ottawa. The members of the Woman's Mis- sionary Society of Sydens/im street Methodist church, had the pleasure {of a visit on Wednesday from Mrs. W. H. Henderson, Ottawa, president of the Montreal Branch of the Wo- man's Missionary Sociéty. During | the afternoon, the regular monthly mission study class was held in the Sunday schagl hall, after which sup- per was servéd in the lecture hall, by the Mission Circle, of which Mias Minnie Anglin {s superintendent, and | Miss Phyllis Coates is president. Mrs. R. O. Jolliffe, president of | the Auxiliary, presided, and short {addresses were given by Mrs. H. A. | Lavell, dominion president, Mrs. W. | M. Campbell, Mrs. A.E. Knapp, Prof. R. O. Jolliffe, and Dr. R. H. Bell. Mrs. Lavell urged upon the gather- ing the necessity of training the girls to take the place of the pre- sent members, who would be drop- ping out. She sald that the majority of the people seem to be afraid to try to do things, and this seems to be general; this results in - abou? twenty or twenty-five people doing the work which should be carried on | by all. - Mrs. Henderson in a very clear and convincing manner told some- thing of the work which is being carried by the W.M.S, and of the urgent need for more workers. The work was started forty-two years ago and has gradually erpanded until at the present time a great amount of money is required to carry it to a successful termination. In China there are forty-two missionaries at k, and the great need is for more effective work, which can only be accomplished by having more work- ers in the fleld. She also sounded the call for volunteers for medical workers on the field. Mrs. Hender- son cited a case where in a section of 1,500,000, people thera is one christian worker, while in another place there were 800,000, and only one school. In Japdn there are thirty-five missionaries at work. These of course are under the con- trol of the Woman's Missionary. So- ciety. The call of Canada is also great, Mrs. Henderson stated, and the for- elgners who are rapidly coming into our country, need the attention of the W.M.S8. She reminded her hearers that what they need most is to strengthen the home base by in- creasing the membership. Mrs. Henderson believes that every wo- man in the cliurch should be a mem: ber of the missionary society, and the best way to obtain this end is to place the need before the women, and surely they will respond, . In closing, Mrs. Henderson com- plimented the board of the Woman's { Missionary Society upon the excel- lent women who compose that body; women who could shine in any soci ety, but who prefer to consecrate themselves to that work. At the close of Mrs. Henderson's address, a hearty vote of thanks was tendered to this most interest- ing speaker, on a motion of Mrs. W. 8. Gordon, district organizer, and Miss Phyllis Coates, Circle presi- dent. Miss D. Chown had charge of the devotional exercises, and Miss Keitha Lloyd rendered a solo. Mrs. W. M. Campbell, treasurer, announced that the Sydenham street soclety had already one hundred dol. lars for the Margaret Craig memo- rial which is to be in, the form of an assembly hall in the school where this devoted missionary spent a | great portion of her life. The wo- men of the W.M.8. of Canada are N| raising $50,000, in addition to their usual contribution, and the Montreal branch is required to secure $65,000. Two new life members were enlisted at the close of the meeting. Professor R. 0. Jolliffe took occa- sion to: congratulate 'the ladles on the excellent meeting, and his only regret was that there were not more men of the congregation pre- sent, although an open imvitation had been given from the pulpit on meeting to a close with prayer, LETTERS To The Editor In No Way Responsible.

ANDREW'S WLS "Hears Address by Mrs. H. A. Lavell on Two Great Mis- sion Conferences. The members of St. Andrew's Aux- fliary of the Women's Missionary So- ciety had;a great treat at their regu- lar monthly meeting on Wednesday, when Mrs. H. A. Lavell, president of the Dominion Council of the Metho- dist W.M.8., gave an account of the two great miss.onary conferences that she attended as the representative of her board in New York and Atlan- tic City. The first was the Federation of Women's Missionary Societies for North America, which is interde- nominational and supposedly interna- tional, though this is the first time that the Canadian members have re- ceived real recogmition and have an official place on the programme. One of the problems mentioned was the difficulty foreign students have in seeing so-called Christians by no means living up to their faith, to de- cide which way is the right way for them. There are 10,000 foreign stu- dents in the United States and of these nearly 50 per cent. lose their faith in' Christianity and return to their own countries, either uncertain Qr out and' out opposed. A plea for & union of all Christian women the world over to help each other along the financing and organization was arranged for two years, time enough to show its worth. A bulletin wii be issued, whose pages are free to women the world over to give their views on matter vital to them. The second conference was For- eign Missions, and the members were both men and women. There were wonderful inspirational addresses from Mr. Chamberlain, Mr. Robert Speer and others. A characteristic story was that of Mary Slessor. She had wonderful influence with the na- tive chiefs, but on one occasion, two chiefs had such a serious quarrel that nothing she could say would Induce them to ferget a battle, so very early next morning she took a chair and her Knitting and went off through the forest to where two trails met and there planted her chair and sat down with her knitting. After many hours waiting, the two oppos- ing forces were heard approaching, and there they met, but could not fight, except over the body of Mary Slessor, and so great was their love and reverence for her that they real- ized that she was right and made peace and went off to their villages to fight no more. There were three outstanding ad- dresses from Orientals on the Orien- tal view of Jesus Christ, fronrIndia, China and Japan. Johan Masih Who was heard here this winter, spoke for India. ~ GREAT OROWDS ATTEND DODGE BROTHERS' SHOW Clarence Street Garage Has All Models on Hand for Inspection. ---- The interested, the curious, the lovers of beautifyl cars, the buyers of cars, buyers of trucks--al!l kinds of people at all likely to attend a motor show have been to the Clar- ence Garage this week to see the complete display of all 1924 models of Dodge Brothers famous cars.
