News of the death of Mrs.`l Theobald Coleman on Sunday at! her home in Hamilton will be re-` ceived with sorrow by thousands_ of people in Canada and in other: parts of the English-speaking: world.

Do We have made a special effort this year to h_ave work done amongst the children. To this end, our Loyal Temperance Le-! gion has been reorganized and placed under the directorship of Mr. Grandy with Messrs. F.` Sarjeant and H. Armstrong as assistants. Our young friends 1 have entered into this work with` `a heartiness and enthusiasm `that we are sure is prophetic of gthe success of their undertak- ` .1ng'. Alnnnn l>|\{a Iinn h`bI\ nu).

Kit, to use the name 1) whichl` `she was familiarly and a oction-' ately known, was possessed to a . remarkable degree of that val-I` uable journalistic gift. an ap-; preciation of news values." Shel] had also a charm of personality, and conversational powers ` which made her eminently sue- 1 cessful as an interviewer. Among her achievements was a timely interview with the late 1 Mrs. Cassie Chadwick when the.` latter was incarcerated in jail at] Cleveland, Ohio, and was await-g ing trial on a remarkable series of charges of fraud. 1, w.o.'r.u.

Defeat is simply impos- sible to those who are working in any way for the cause of pro.` gress. And when we lift our eyes from our own little ieco of work to take a survey 0 the broader flelds we nd much ev- erywhere to bring encourage- ment. 'We can see that out of this terrible carnival of blood-{ shed and destruction which is going on, God is bringing new life and new light to the nations} and we are encouraged to hope and believe that in our own fair provinces, the end of the accurs- ed liquor traffic is in sight.

C III!" iiY&IIHCUl I Since away back in the cold: lmonth of February between` `thirty and forty of the young; ladies of St. Andrew s Congrega- tion have been meeting in the Church one or two evenings each week and making Red Cross Hospital supplies. When they first started they met one even- ing every week, but latterly as! the demand for supplies became greater and `greater they meet each Tuesday and Thursday and great piles of work have been turned over by them to the local! Red Cross Headquarters. Be-3 sides doing the work they have collected all the money to pur-; chase the su plies, in many cases denying t emselves in 0r.. der to contribute their share. All this they have been doing cheer- fully and well without one word `of praise. many of their own ,congregation being unaware of; tle good work going on among em. l __1 III], I I I y l Last Thursday evening an op-| en meeting was held in the church when an opportunity was given to all to see the fair work- ers at work and to encourage others to join them. A great many turned out, and it was most interesting to see the girls gquickly roll yard after yard of bandages, deftly cut and bind and sew. Many of the workers are girls employed in business throughout the day, and that they devote two whole evenings each week to this work speaks well for the. spirit that pervades St. Andrew`s Congregation. At !each meeting new ways and. means of alleviating the suffer- ings of our soldiers are discuss- 'ed and explained by those in charge,. so as to be prepared for any emergency. At this meet- ing the girls were shown how to make respirators. These are used to prevent. the poisonous, gases used by the enemy from! disabling our soldiers. So fari the Canadian Red Cross has not` ;been asked to make these, but! `should they be required, the girls are prepared to go ahead and make them. -.....\_- u--yang.
