MISSION WORK BY CARAVAN An Interesting Story Told by "Miss Hassell of Northern Alberta. A story of high adventure, gallant daring end unflagging energy was told in St. George's Mall on Thurs- day evening by Miss Hassell, the bright young English girl who for several years has driven a vam, cooked for herself and her compan- fon, ridden bucking western horses where the road was even too rough for a Ford van, held services, taught children, and brought cheer and the knowledge that the church of their fathers 'was caring for them fn a strange land to the English end Canadian eettlers in the lonely P of Northern Alberta.

The dominion board had given $500 for each of th dioceses where misblon vans were used, and many other kindnesses and encourag-ments had deen received by her her com- panions from the Woman's Auxillary. Miss Hassell was a worker dur- the aid of her lantern views, Hassell took her hearers long t through the wooded lands Ed ton, where, through supmmer of 1923, she and panion travelled in the van bearin the name "Sunday School Mission, Anglican Church." 'This strong, VAR preparatory to appearing at a garden party given at Government House in aid 'of the missto::, "When the people said, 'Oh, you don't seem to bave come across any mud,' we wished we had left it as #t was," said Miss Hassoll with a laugh. Her com- 'hundred by Miss Hassell, who walk- i ing and riding i sults are seen. She said so in Eug- | land, and the news of her speech | reached the minister of agriculture ; at Edmonton, who asked bishop | to admonish her. She told her story to the bishop, who said: "Come along to the buildings asd tell the minis- ter." "The minister hadn't much say," said Miss Hasseil, "for the bishop told him wha. he thought and when he had finished I began, but we parted the best of friends." While the work is entirely sup- ported by the Anglican church, all fumilies are visited, more than eight ed six hundred miles as well as driv- 1923, and the Sunday school by post sent to all who, will take at. Driving one hundred miles to have a marriage solemnized, fifty miles to cburch, are stories told by the set- tlers who have not lost touci with the faith of their fathers. But for miles where these intrepid girls have travelled no minister of any church has been fof years and few indeed are the schools in which the Bible is taught, Miss Hassell told the Whig she had a letter from a farmer's wife saying missionaries were needed in the west as much /es in Derkest Ar- rica, for the children who are the Canadians of the future are grow- ing up as heathens.

The Editor Hears That when Mrs. Emmeline Pank- hurst was asked what the effect of eight women sitting id the British House of Parliament would have ghe said "I think that the women in par- lament will work for the cause ot women in soclety. I know Lady As- tor is deeply interested in the social hygiene movement, which ufiects wo- men more profoundly 'than any other social problem." That a gay little hat shaped on the lines of a turban is covered with Roman striped ribbon. The hat is accompanied by a scart of the same ribbon, with a wide silk fringe and a small pocket in one end. That the bear will venture fortn on Saturday to see if he can se: his shadow, and if so will go back to his hole for another six weeks. That we constantly hear the ques- tion asked about people who are in straits for one reason or another, "Are they deserving poor?" While it would be most unwise to continue helping those who will not help themselves we might give a thought to the gquestion, "Are we deserving of the many blessings God has given us?" Christ spoke lovingly of 'the poor;'" we hear of no reference to "the deserving poor." It was egough for Him that help was needed. He said to his disciples '"The poor ye have always with you," so His at- titude to the question is the same today as If was two thousand years ago. That "the Sandmen' were too few on Thursday and the citizens struggled to work as best they could, many people getting falls. The cen- tre of the road, generally the refuge of the cautious, was so rough that walking was an effort, and altogether the streets were in a dreadful con- dition a fact several of our readers called our attention to.

THE NEW SASH-RIBBON BAGS. I wonder if all my Readers have seen the new sash-ribbon bags? They are used either for fancywork or for carrying snap-purse and small parcels on the street. ° Of course ithe quality of the ribbon us: ed, determines, in a large measure, the use to which the bag may be put, Materilals: Buy one yard of heavy silk '"'sash-ribbon" (that is, any rib- bon nine inches wide). Sew the two ends together, thus forming a long loop of the yard of ribbon. Ton seam, joining the two ends, forms the extreme bottom of the bag. The top of the bag (that is the top of this long loop) is turned into a 'handle by pleating (the pleating narrows it). This hande-loop slips on over the arm when the bag is carried. All that remains to do now, to complete the bag is sew the edges of the ribbon together; .on either side, or within eight inches) of top of the loop-handle. In"other words, the bag resemoies a basket which has straight lines and a broad hemdle, It has no iln- ing--a point which will appeal to LOCKETT'S the woman who has ever made a lin- ed bag! It is undecorated save for feather-stitching on the pleats o. the handle. These pleats are plac- ed as follows: Make a rather wide box pleat in the sentre of the loop- hendle; then make two small, plain ' pleats, (facing out) on either side of the box pleat. It is hard to describe such an ar: ticle as this without an illustration to help me, but if my Reader Friend | cannot grasp the shape of the bag from this explanation, I will gladly send her a rough, small pencil draw- Ing of it upon receipt of a stamped and self-addressed envelope. (This drawing is not a pattern but merely a two-inch-size sketch on a sheet of paper). Keep these directions, as I have no reprints to accompany tne sketch. I said above that the quality of ribbon purchased, would determine the appropriate use of this bag. By tagt I meant that a very expensive variety of ribbon--such as Persian or tinsel ribbons or ribbons with cut-velvet patterns, would make a eatre bag; heavy ribbed silk rib ms, In fairly dark colors, would make a bag appropriate for street wear; and thinner silk ribbons in brighter colors would make a pretty fancywork bag, Tomarrow:--Some Good French o Dishes, All inquiries adaressed to Mise Kirkman in ears of the "Efficient Housekeeping" department will be answered in these columns in thelr tara.
