Miss Margaret Gibson, a student attending Queen's university, who was a delegate to the missionary conference held in: Washington re- cently, was the special speaker. Miss Gibson stated that there were speak- ers at the conference from every country, but to a Canadian went the honor of winning the highest ap- plause, in the pérson of the Hon. N. W. Rowell, K.C., who spoke on "International . Relations." Miss Gibson sald that one of the native been made in trying to take our conventions to the Orient, as well as Christ. The western contact has not been an unmixed blessing. It was said that in 1950 missions will not be spoken of as "foreign," but as "Christian missions." We must naturalize Christ to each mation. There were several native speakers at the conference, Miss Gibson stated, especially from India. One of the Indian speakers said that it is true they have "caste" in India, but in this country we have "class," and there they have child marriages, and here the problem of unmarried mothers. | India needs missionaries badly; not the ones who go and build themselves fine houses, and have numerous servants, but those who are earnest and Christlike and who will live among the people. We want to carry the water of life to these people, does it matter about the cup? Mrs. W. 8. Gordon moved a vote excellent and instructive address, which was seconded by Mrs. R. H.

It was one of the best amateur performances put on fn Kingston this winter, and we learn it has been enriched by several mor attractions. . That the sight of men or girls playing ball in the streets is a sure sign that the spring examinations are on at Queen's University. The bit of exercise on the quiet street hurts no one and helps to keep the students fit for their hard work. That the Grenfell Club is prepar- ing for their bale which is to be sent to the Labrador Mission this week. Last year a similar bale was sent, which was received most gratefully by those in charge of the splendid work established by Dr. Grenfell. That Queen Mary's Doll's House, which many people thought was the ley Exhibition last year, is likely to come to Canada shortly. Quite a number of Canadian and American women have been over to London specially to see it, and thdugh the Queen is loathe to let her treasure cross the Atlantic, she wants to gratify evérybody who wishes to see it. If it comes it will be insured for a little over $3,000,000. That there is a movement on foot among some leading Kjngston wo- men to organize a relief fund for the Nova Scotia miners. One prominent society has already voted a sum which will be announced late?. That the sunshine of Easter Day brought out some of the pretty frocks for the occasion. But some of them were short with a venge- ance. Happily the coat was a little longer. These skirts are not by any means always becoming. The tall thin woman, whom we call graceful, in a draped frock, we are apt to call ungainly and awkward when she per- sists in wearing a skirt almost to her knees and the stout girl! Well the less said about her the better. Wo- men should be sure that their limbs are well formed, their feet and ankles just what they should be be- fore they follow the extreme of Dame Fashion's latest freak. Grated cheese added to the white sauce you serve with caulifiower makes it much more delicious.
