W. E. Raney, Attor- ney- Ri In spite of opposi- tion and adverse criticism he has persistently tried to enforce the laws of our Province, especially: the Ontario Temperaance Act. We also commend Mr. Raney's effort to curtail the evils of race- track gambling." "That, while we appreciate the measure of temperance legislation we have in this Province, we be- lieve that provincial prohibition cannot be made fully effective while liquor is manufactured in, or imported into other provinces. Therefore we believe in Dominion wide prohibition.' "That we women of the W.C. T.U., by precept and example, will 'guard the sanctity of the Sabbath Day. That we discour- age the growing tendency of making the Sabbath a day of giving and receiving visits, thus interfering with the needs of our higher Christian character, the sacredness of our homes, and the attendance on the services of God's house."
