Boysnaiid-Jo-hnVWoods for The activities of the Ontario Safety League were reviewed in an iii".-erestingz; way ing of the Kiwanis Club by Mr. H. G. Foster, General Manager of_ the League. Kiwanis Clubs throughout Canada and the United States, Mr. Foster found, contribu't~ed to the social well being` of the ycionnnunities where they existed and should be interested in the Safety League, the main objecb of which was the saving of human life. The o1`_e,-smization of a movement in Canada started In 1913, Mr. Morley being: one of the founders. Mr. Wyce was" the rst_ manag-'er and continued as such until his: rlrnmisn last veal`. at Mondia=y s meet-| safety ' The Ontario 3 abblludllg ll`UHl Da1'l'lC.

I In his opening remarks Mr. Rowe ;c_ong'ratul:iite(l the Junior Conserva- -.t1vcs of the it-ownship for making the occasion possible, stating that it :showed their interest in the Liberal- 3Conservative party. He urged the young` girls and women to take an 'uctive interest in pOlil\lCI9.l1. affairs, as they controlled 53 per cent. of the 'votes and inuenced about another !25 per cent. You are practically {in control of the political situation gin the Dominion, whether you know lit or not, he said, adding; that any acoiimiuliity with a live junior or wo- lmen s assocation could put up a bet- :ter fight for the Cvonse1'\'zutiive pacty. { Mr. Rowe pointed out that there .was a distinct djlference between `the policies of the two major poli- .tical parties of Canada. The Con- iservatixre party stood for protection `and all down through the years had jalways cherished closer Imperial re- `lations. Its policy was to tighten the bond of trade relations with .Grca.t Britain, while the Clollllllliltllllg `feature of -the Liberal party has 'been greater trade relations with the United States.
