To what service are young people called today? How may they know the call? "Isaiah" the statesman-prophet, is the topic to be discussed at the Union Church Adult Class Sunday morning. { The special reading is Isaiah 6:1--S38. | This prophet was a politican as wel as a preacher. i Fo dil described in 2 Kings 18--20 He preached during .g our Our Guest List | Mothers and Daughters NINETY guests sat down together at the Mothers' and Daughters' banquet arranged by the Dryden C.G.IT. The tables; beautifully decorated with pink and white carnations, were heavily laden with everything good to eat, all of which was prep red by the girls Proceedings were opened by singing the C.G.J.T. grace. After the feast several toasts were proposed, which gave opportunity for some striking addresses by some of the girls. Short speeches were also given by the fol- lowing adults: Mrs Latimer, Mrs Black, Mr M. F. Cook and Rev. J. M. Beaton, minister of Union Church. Mrs Norman Beveridge presided at the piano. Below are given some of the ad- dresses by the girls, in explanation of "he aims of the C.G.LT.:-- Toast Mistress, Jessie Noble "Mothers and guests, on behalf of the girls I welcome you here this evening. Surely there are few things that give us more pleasure than to get together for an evening such as this, with our mothers. Possibly some of our mothers. have wondered a little just what the C.G.1.T. has meant to us girls, and we are glad of this op- portunity to get together and show you something of the aims and ideals get up as our standards by the C.G.LT. programme. : "Ome of our first ideals is that of true patriotism. We would go into a training that will fit 'us physically, mentally, morally and socially to take places 'as the Canadian women of tomorrow. And since this ideal of patriotism is among our first and highest aims, it ig fitting that on this list of the things we would honout this evening, comes first a toast to our king and country. Shall we rise and drink then, to our king and coun- try." Bie hy ; Reply--(All singing) "God. Save Our King" an '0 Canada." «After all, everything we do along the line of creating and working to- wards higher ideals and a nobler life, brings us back to the thought of our Church, and those things which it has always taught of and stiuggled for. This evening let us Iv forget the foundation of all out «1 take great plea upon Mrs Latimer to propose a to our Church." : Mildred McGonagle-- «Madam Toastmistress, 'others, guests and girls, 1 feel honoured in being chosen to speak of this other branch of the organization you have gathered here to Tonour. Possibly, in contemplating all these . differently-- labelled branches of activity you may think our scciety nothing but a shape- less mangle of organization. Too much organization is as deplorable as too little, but as you know, the difference between an organism and a mechan- jem is that the one has life while the other has not. Now I dare say that our leaders may often think in this eties are too highly organized; but may. I offer this consolation to our leaders that while there is life there is hope. : toast respect of having life, that our soci- |. 2 [ "fo, ® '} Points and Politics|k Peter Heenan, M.P. who came \/ home. last week after attending the | #4 final session at Toronto, spent a few days in this end of the constituency this week, holding meetings at Oxdrift Monday; Quibell, Tuesday; Sioux Lookout, where he met Premier Drury Wednesday and Thursday; and leav- ing for Toronto Friday. Notwithstanding the busy seed- time, a big attendance was present at the community hall Oxdrift, when Myr Heenan delivered a short address on the general situation. The meet- ing was arranged on the initiative of | & 7. T. Brignall, district director of the | \' U.F.0., who wished to have the rep- \ resentative meet his Oxdrift friends. W. W. Howell was called to the chair, and after welcoming Mr Heenan and those from Dryden, Waldhof and i} / other points who were present, he call- | 3 ed ons M. S. Campbell president of \ the LL.P. to speak. F. T. Brignall{ also spoke a few minutes. 23 Mr Heenan, despite the heavy ses- sion just ended, was in good spirits, RV and gave a resume of the record of | the Drury government with especial reference to this district. He referred 7x to the various amendments to different Vi Acts for the benefit of working men il IN and farmers. nN Perhaps the most pressing matter Vi for government attention in this dis- i trict was the question of-roads. He /\ confessed that there) were still many \] voadways of which he was ashamed, IN but at that a good deal had already v been done, and plans were complete \/ for a good deal more. He was able' to assure them that bid 4 considerable money would be expends i ed no matter who might be returned A at the coming election. The necessary papers were signed and sealed, and ( without doubt the plans would be car- [ ried through to completion. Mr Heenan would not be drawn in- \/ to anything like a campaign speech, vl but confined himself to matters help- IN ful to the district and its development. \/ Liberal Convention-- : = Nn KENORA, Ont May 23 At a fairly V well attended meeting of the Kenora Ji Liberal Association held in the coun- IN il chamber on Friday evening last a \ general discussion of the present ji provincial political situation took place } It was decided to get into communi- Ja cation with other and prominent Liberals throughout } the riding, and to request them' to be represented at a convention to be held h/ BY council chamber. - : : T= ; WV Liberal-Conservative Meeting-- Lj «To this other half of our organi- zation of young people voluntarily training for citizenship, we would give honour, and I ask you to rise and drink to the boys who are choosing to train themselves for a better life, and to be faithful to our Standard Efficiency Training." Nellie Cullen-- , «@irls we are here tonight to give honour to the best friends we have in all the world--our mothers. «For me to attempt to say what my mother .means to me, and yours to you, is to attempt the impossible. But girls, we shall propose this toast to gether, let us sing our mothers' song. Nellie, "Girls, to, our mothers." All, "God bless them." Reply to toast of girls. Nellie Cullen-- . ¢ "Dear mothers, on behalf of all the girls here, I thank you for this hon- our. Mrs Wigle has been more than kind in her praise of us and of out little entertainment. I think she must have had in mind that old phrase, 'Say it with flowers. : «@eriously, though, I think you have given us more praise than we deserve, but we appreciate it just the came. You knew we girls love to get | out with our mothers, and we do hope | that it won't be long before we can arrange another evening with you. «Tt is so good of you to come to- night and make our evening such a pleasant one and I speak for the C.G.

NOT AN ISSUE i "The temperance question is not an \/ issue in the present election; it is the!) record of the government that is the A issue," said Hon. @. Howard Ferguson 4 "The conservative party is going to win," he said at the outset to the 3 Times-Journal. «] am particularly -\ gratified at the fine reception we had v in the north country. There is a dis- ¢ tinct swing-to-victory sentiment in the J northern part of Ontario." «The people seem to remember § that before the Drury Government came into power, we were endeavor- ing to do something to stimuate the A growth and progress and advance- ment of the north part of the coun-' try," said Mr Ferguson. IN "THe present administration of the law has been carried out on purely a punitive basis, to persecute and pun- ish every offender rather than to try and reform the unfortunate, and create respect for and observation of! the law. The Drury government has ; misconstrued the whole situation. \ "When public sentiment requires a | submission of any question, or the re- © submitting of any question for popu-.\ lar approval, the conservative party will be prepared to meet the public. wishes." : \ TOWN OF DRYDEN.!} Tenders will be yeceived by the un- IN dersingned until May 31st, for exca- 9 vation. and construction of Pump }!
