SHE - WASN'T AFRAID What Miss Lazier Said at Washington--Her Father Approved of Trip. A Washington paper says: Miss Gwendolyn Lazier, who arrived here Saturday after a 700 mile trip from Belleville, Ontario, paid a tribute to the New York state police when in- terviewed, Armed with a Spanish shawl, even- ing dress, a tooth brush and revolv- er, she has made the entire journey on her horse "Tip." Of the 32 days she has been en route, she has spent one day each in New York, Phila- delphia and Wilmington. "Of course, I wasn't afraid," she declared yesterday. 'Why should I be? I only traveled in the day time, and people along the way were love- ly to me." Her one difficulty, she said, was her inability to sleep. Asked the cause, she said, 'Excitement, I guess." Coming along the way, she has been met in practically every town by the mayor. Dances, parties and all sorts of celebrations have been held for the pretty little Kanuck visitor. She also declared she had wonderful protection given by mounted police in New York state.

The city should be proud of its "Y." The building is a beautiful one, kept in perfect order, and the meals are ex- cellent. Many times have the resi- dent boarders heard transients say "This is the best 'Y' I have been in." Then the clubs for girls are useful and could be made even more so with a few improvements. Money {is needed" for the development of the institution, which is not only a real home for business women and girls of the city, but fills in a most satis- factory way the need of a home lika resting place for women travelling alone and a residence for girl stu- dents of Queen's University, ---------------------------------------------- That Miss Peggy Foster, now Mrs. W.

Hentig, Kingston. On Thursday afternoon the offi- cers' reports were read. The record-q ing secretary reported a membership of 1,635 in the sixty-five senior branches; 256 in the fifteen girls branches; and 405 in the nineteen junior branches, a total of 2,296, not including the Little Helpers. The life members, made during the year are Mrs. Robert Sutherland, St. Paul's, Kingston, made a life mem- ber by her daughter, Mrs. Edward Rees, and her son, Mr. Harry Suth- erland, St. Louis, Mo., Mrs. Boldrick, by Stirling branch; Mrs. Dumbrille and Mrs. Storey, Kemptville, by their branch, and Mrs. Judson Watchorn, deanery secretary for Grenville by her deanéry. Miss Ethel Waldron, correspond- ing secretary, referred to the pass- ing of three faithful members of the W. A,, Mrs. J. O. Crisp, King- ston, Mrs. E. MoCrudden, Belle- ville, and Mrs. McLeod Moore, who died in England at the home of her daughter. Miss Louise Kirkpatrick, Dorcas secretary, reported total value of bales and church furnishings during the nine months from April 30th 1923 to December 31st 1923, when the financial year closed, as $1,654.- 99. Eighty-one bales were sent. Christmas boxes were sent to the mission schools in the west and also overseas. Forty-six outfits for Indian children were undertaken. The boot fund was entirely made up which was a great cause for rejoicing. Mrs. J. 8. Sibbitt reported 984 cop- iés of "The Living Message" taken, and appealed to the members to. bring the circulation up to the thousand. At the last annual meeting. it was decided to end the financial year in December, 80 the treasurer's report, read by Miss M. Lewis, was only for nine months, Total-receipts $6,- 072.61. The apportionment of the diocesian.W. A. for the general Pledge fund, $2,050, was fully met. The report of secretary of litera- ture, Miss Edith Pense, was read. The mission study book for this year was "Japan dn Transition" and the little booklet "Our Mission Sta- tions in Mid-Japan® ' was used to supplement it. Over a hundred cop- ies of the Canadian Church Calen- dar for 1924 were purchased and sold. It is gratifying to réport an in- crease in the sale of literature, es- pecially in the number of study books sold. "The Church and the Newcomer" will be the mission study book for next year. Money received during the year $103.45. Miss Edith Van Straubénzee read her report of the Girls' and candi- dates secretary, and Miss Eleanor Reynolds, Brockville, of the Little Helpers.

The Trenton Juniors giving the 'Missionary Alphabet," Miss Rabajotti an address on "Some Children of Kangra" and Miss Shaw will speak on "Our Japanese Cous- ine." "PITTSBURG. The Pittsburg branch of the Wo- men's Institute held {heir monthly meeting at the home of Mrs. C. Rog- ers on Thursday, May 29th, at which there was a goodly attendance.

Many strange incidents fell to her lot during the long journey. -+ "Just because I happened to be a girl, lots of people were shocked," | she said. "They wanted to know what nly parents said, and all sorts | of things. | "I haven't any mother, and my | father approved. And I got here all | right. So I don't see why any one | should worry." { One thing ot which .she is proud | is that out of $150 she was given to | spend on the trip, she spent only | $40. Twenty dollars of this bought shoes and hose in New York. That | means she has traveled over 700 miles on $20. This should be quite a blow to those who talk of the ex- travagance of women, | Another thing she boasts about is the condition of her horse. "Tip," she says, is a war horse who belong- ed to a Canadian general, and has | had a great deal of experience in | mking long distances. Nevertheless, she thinks he will be glad to get the rest on the homeward journey. Like his mistress, he will return to Can- ada by rail, A valued part of her equipment is a small book she has carried with | hér and which contains the names of | all those she has meet on the way. | Prominent among the signatures is that of General Smedley Butler, whom she met in Philadelphia. She presented a hand engraved in- |" vitation to President Coolidge at 11 aturday morning. The invitation, which is on sheepskin, has been | slightly "'mussed" from contact with | "Tip," but it has a distinction. It | was brought by courier on the long- | est horseback journey that has been attempted in fifty years, While coming through Princeton the boys presented her with a crazy- cat, which General Butler named "Felix." "I'll never give it up," she says. A strange mixture of little girl and grown-up lady, she declares she hasn't done anything out of the or- dinary, In spite of the many people the has met on the way, and the tremendous ovation given her in cities all along her journey, she isn't the least bit affected. v -------- | He who thinks he can find in him- self the means of doing without others is much mistaken, but he who thinks others cannot do without him is still more mistaken.
