afternoon with mrs gunn president in the chair mrs tavlor returned recently from africa where she went as a repre sentative from our church to the first postwar international mis sionary conference and therefore was well fitted to bring to us first hand information on her topic africa she had the privilege or visiting many parts of that land and of seeing living conditions in putlying districts which are still or the most primitive type mrs tay lor stressed the great desire of the people for education and the crying need of literature for those who have learned to read for the first time african delegates to this con ference were treated on an equality with representatives from eur opean and american countries we were given a vivid word picture or the progress being made at our mis sion stations in angola through the tireless efforts of our missionaries along evangelistic medical and educational lines native workers deserve great credit for carrying on the work so faithfully

a social hour was enjoyed contri buted salesmen for radio licenses were in town on good friday doing a housetohouse canvass since re newals for licenses were only due april 1st nobody had attended to the detail and the salesmen did a good business just what the gov ernment get out of this after paying men to race around the towns and villages collecting a paltry 250 at every door is not known to us but it certainly looks on the cheap side for the dominion government to have men out in this fashion those who did not procure their renewals at this time should do so without delay from issuers in town mowder house still for sale a home that was established dur ing the first great war was broken up last week when the household effects of the late mr and mrs jos mowder were sold by auction the

turner who are just starting housekeeping on church street in the former williamson house at saturdays sale bidding for the property was not too brisk and the place did not come near the reserve bid the property is a solid brick in good repair well located and the absence of buyers who could obtain immediate possession was a surprise however there was private offers for the place before the sale and this kind of buyer will now have an opportunity to buy the new town maintenance man harry vanneno is now in his new employment and no doubt will do a good job as he is a splendid work er and very capable he will keep the pavement clean repair the leaks in water system should there be any and generally attend to the duties arising about town and which are the liability of the muni cipality
