The movement spread to Canada and world-wide Conventions were held in cities throughout the States. At one of these conventions in Cleveland jn June, 1920, five delegates from Ontario were present, these being Thomas S. Brandy of Stratford, Miss E. Ann Riddell, Miss Ethel Hager, Mr. and Mrs. Harry Axford, all of Windsor. These five decided that a union should be formed in Ontario so in - August, 1920, the first Ontario Convention was held in St. Andrew's Church, Stratford by the Baraca Class who financed the con- vention. The Baracas of St. Andrew's was the only class of its kind in this city, and one of twenty-seven in Ontario. The fol- lowing year the convention was held in the Walmer Road Baptist Church, Toronto and last year in Central Methodist Church, Windsor. Each year the membership has grown and more interest has been taken in the work. This year the convention has returned to Stratford where the Baraca-. Philathea- Union is being entertained. In contrast to the first Ontario convention held in Stratford is the fourth one for there are now 13 Classes in the city in four differ- ent churches, St. Andrew's having 3, Cen- tral 4, Trinity 4, and Ontario Street Baptist 2 with approximately 300 members on the roll. For the first convention which was held in 1920 the committee consisted of Colin Campbell, teacher of St. Andrew's Baracas ; Ted Roper, President of the class at that time; TS. Brandy, Harold Smith and Ross McClellan. While all these as- sisted in the original convention three years ago their services have been retained in dif- ferent capacities. Thomas S. Brandy is now General Secre- tary of the Ontario Union and in 1920 held the position of President.
