HEARS REPORT OF MADRAS CONFERENCE Large numbers forced the delegates at the Spring. rally of the Oshawa Presbyterial of the Woman's Mission- ary Society of the United Church of Canada ta move from the Sunday School room to the body of the church at" the afternoon session. Mrs. Geo. "Moncy, of Newcastle, president; pres sided and thessinging 'of Hail to the Lord's Anointed with Miss FE. Wright at the piano, opened the session. Mrs. Honey led in prayer in which she con- sidered especially "missionary the destiny of the world and the blessing of the hostess church.

Davison of Bowmanville, in- troduced the guest speaker, Mrs. H. 1), Taylor, executive secretary of For- ;.| eign Missions and delegates to the In- ternational Missionary Conference at Madras last year. The conference, Mrs, Taylor explained, grew out of the missionary sonference in Madras in 1910. War intervened and the first gathering was at Jerusalem shortly after the war when forty women ats tended. There were eighty women at Madras, fifteen of them from North America. France's only repreésénta- tive was a wonian, rate intent of 'the conference to have a large group of delegates under the age of forty, and cighteen of them were from stadent Christian move: ments, and took an active part in all discussions, It was a working conference, not series of inspirational ad- dresses. There were sixteen sections, cight working one week -- eight the next. It was a marvellous opportun- ity for groups to get together. Rep- resentatives from all Africa, for in- stance, were together for the first time of stress and strain in the world and the meeting. place had to be changed from China to India. % The conference found that some have lost faith because of world con- ditions. The beast has come forth in and the result is appalling cruelty. Certain areas in the world are closing to Christianity and one of these, Turkestan. There is more direct opposition to Christianity -in Canada. There are more people in the world today 'that are not Christians than there were ten years ago. Men and women and funds have been with- drawn from the foreign fields, it was regretfully revealed. The church's failure, the personal failure and the failure of the church corporate, was the problem that the conference considered. "It is 2,000 years since Christ came to the world to bring peace and look at it today," Mrs, Taylor demanded.
