Reports heard at Scugog Chapter, LO.DLE. - November meeting showed that the Ranger Patrol of the Boy Scouts collected $17.00 during the month of October; donations of $25.00 were received from the Business Men's Association, = $20.00 from the High School, $12.00 from the Public School and $2.00 from private citizens for ditty bags for the navy." $102.50 was raised by the sale of tickets for Retail Furriers' Draw which is to take place on November 6th, It was decided to hold the December meeting in the evening for the benefit of those who find it impossible to at- tend in the afternoon. A display of paintings of scenes in North Carolina by the late-Mrs, Cutts was on exhibition, These beautiful pictures have been donated by Mr. Cutts to be sold at $10 each, the pro- ceeds to be devoted to war work. Mrs. W. C. Smith gave an inspiring talk on how women have worked into the place they hold in the world to-day. From Old Testament times until to-day woman's status was re- viewed. Since Christ's ministry on carth through the development of their talents women have been able to advance until today there is no field of labour in which they do not com- pete with men. This status brings responsibilities and Mrs. Smith by il- lustration of Polish, French,' British, also Chinese and Russian women showed how women of to-day have shouldered these responsibilities, and she claimed that Canadian women are donning uniforms and doing man-sized jobs as well as the less spectacular work in the homes to free others for more important work. When the war is won women must be prepared to follow up with con- structive plans for the%etterment of our country by doing all they can to promote the "four freedoms" of Mr. Churchill and Mr. Roosevelt. Mrs. Smith suggested that the Jiquor ques- tion, religious training in schools, and the "New Canadian" problem might be important phases of the aftermath with which. women might concern themselves. If we keep our churches alive-we can do much toward seeing, in Abraham Lincoln's words, "that freedom shall not perish from the carth." | too MARRIED McLaughlin-Blewott Eyes Examined Glasses complete, or lenses only, supplied where necessary, at reasonable prices, -- I.

The one person who scems to miss her most is her twelve-year-old granddaughter, Laura 'Deal. Grand- ma had been the only one who really understood the young girl's great am- bition to become a writer. The old lady had kept a scrap-book in which she pasted magazine articles, short stories and poems. Laura fell heir. The last poem to be asted in the book was: Pain has been and grief enough and bitterness and crying, Sharp way and stony ways I think it was she trod, But all there is to see now is "a white bird flying, Whose blood-stained wings go circling high,--circling up to God." « The one phrase of that poem which remained fixed in Laura's mind was, "a white bird flying". As we follow her through high school and Univer- sity, she keeps this before her, vow- ing never to let anything come be- tween her and her career. When she finished University, however, she came to the cross-roads in her life, had to decide whether to go and live with her wealthy old.aunt and uncle|g and carry on her career, or marry young Allen Rinemiller and live in Cedartown, This novel is entertaining and will hold your interest to the last page. It describes the pioneer days of Ne- braska enlivened by the stories of Oscar Lutz, Cedartown's oldest inhabi- tant who had settled there many years before with some of his friends. This is.a story well worth your reading. 'Myrtle Station A larger number than usual attend- ed the Sunday evening service when Rev. G. S. Gervan preached his fare- well sermon. .
