The Fraser Valley District S. Association held their annual convention in tho hall at Hatzic on March IJlsL. Both the afternoon and evening sessions were well, attended. This organization was inaugurated last year and the first meeting was held in Mission City. The organization was promoted by the 13. C. Sunday S. Association and comprises the denominational S. Schools of the territory from Pitt Meadows to Agassiz and includes Abbotsford 'and Clayburn\/ The aim of the Association is to stimulate greater interest in Sunday S. work and to'promote more efficiency in all branches connected with the teaching of the pupil. The principal speaker at the Hatzic meeting was the Rev I. W.; Williamson, ^secretary of the B. C. S. S. A., through whose efforts the re-organization of S. Schools has become possible. Mr. Williamson has severed his connection with the B. C. S. S. A\", and will leave for Nova Scotia to enter a larger field and better pastures. The vacancy thus left will be hard to fill and although Mr. 'Williamson's decision is much,regretted by B; C S. S. workers, all wish him Godspeed and good luck, and our loss will be the Easterner's gain The following is the program of the meeting at Hatzic: .

We have to work pretty hard, at present it is run with two shifts, day and night and Ave take it . week about the effect on the rest was excellent. They kept us an-hour and a half in the dark one evening, very tiresome. Of .course I swear to the family that if-.there is one safe spot from the Zepps it is the arsenal. The pay is pretty good, but, food costs a lot. J.1 UK'IVE K1) OF PRODUCTION Each'shift is twelve hours. This last week I have been on the night shift, going in at 7 p. m. and coming home in the morning along with the land lady's cat. I can only hope I don't look as dissipated as he does when we meet on the doorstep. At present I am in charge of seven,girls and their-machines, for which we have also four fitters. I am supposed to. keep the girls in order, gauge the cartridges and keep the scores. The gauging is the most tiresome part, it has to-be constantly done; there are four things to be gauged, and the manager says each . machine should be done at least once in' five min-j utes. That, however, is a slight exaggeration. The fitters complicate life a good deal, but so far 1 have found them all pretty decent. They change from one shift to another every fortnight so we don't always get the same men. Everyone has been . very friendly and kind, and it makes a great difference, when twelve hours each day must be spent there.,We get an hour's interval, for dinner and half an hour for tea. When I went first, the arsenal provided nothing but boiling water, and all the provisions for the day had to, be carried\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffda fearful nuisance. But now there is a very good canteen run be the Y. M. C. A. You will guess-:there is not much time for other things. My landlady does my shopping for me. I was lucky in getting a room near the arsenal so have no difficulty about trains. Some Reed Cross Concert A concert was given in the Alexandria Hall last Tuesday evening by Mr. Giroday and his daughters before leaving for*, the coast. Mr. A.

Zepps). and are led to a place of comparative safety, with a \"poison helmet\" thrust upon your reluctant fingers as the lights go out. 1 own I was much more alarmed at the prespect of donning the helmet than at the prospect of Zeppelins! It was a strange smelling object and even in the dark no one seemed inclined to put one on. , The girls on the whole behaved well, though of course there was a certain amount of hysterics. The second time it happened the lady superintendent was there (a singularly capable woman), and she slapped one girl who was beginning to fuss; It must be plain to the most obtuse and unreasoning mind that twenty-four or twenty-five million of men cannot be withdrawn even from the swarming population of Europe without effecting a huge reduction in the produce of labour and of the soil. Women may in a measure supply the places of men, but it must be remembered that women have also their sphere in the economics of life. Therefore in taking them to the land they are being taken, in the main, from other employment: Consequently, if for every man who goes to light there was a, woman to, take his place in agriculture or other industry there would still be a deficiency not only in labor but in production. At the present time 400,000 women are being called for to take the place of 250,000 British sol- (diers recruited from farm work Hence it is clear that no matter what steps may be, taken either during the war .or after the war, there must.be.an enormous shortage of the require ments across the Atlantic for many years tp come. And that shortage for a period subsequent to the declaration of peace will be as keenly as any time during the gigantic struggle. With the normal scramble for existence resumed there will be less immediate government control\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdin other words there will \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd be less systematic regulation of supplies. To meet the demands that must succeed extra consumption, tremendously less production and immensely greater wastage, there will be abundant use, not for one year's bountiful crops, but for similar blessings during a score of successive years. Where and how can this assured demand be met There is but one answer to the dual question\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdby the undevast- ed countries and by redoubled efforts at production in those countries. That Canada is not the only country that has net had its resources in large part exhausted or destroyed, is true; but there is plenty of reason to believe that the nations of Europe not engaged in the war, have been drawn upon to the utmost by those so engaged; hence when the time conies all eyes will be turned from east to west for succour. Canada, being the near est to the great centre of de- from sentimental reasons, be niand, will, of necessity, apart the first looked to and will have the greatest opportunity. The bogey of released Russian harvests have been on parade since the war commenced, but Russia, with twelve or fifteen million men called to arms., largely of the peasant class, lias suffered and is suffering, like the rest. ' She, too, will need reo rganizing, rejuvenating and, regenerating. Hence, for a few months after the outbreak of hostilities, there may have been something to be expected from the release of, stores of wheat and other grain from O- dessa and other Black Sea ports there is nothing available now and there may be little in the next,, decade. Hence, Canada's role is plain\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdto go on producing, to go .on garnering, and storing, if necessary, in the sure and certain hope of ultimate profit and prosperity. There, never was a time, and probably never will be another time, when we were more urgently, called upon to produce; in increased quantities, not alone all articles of food, but every articles that enters into the industrial life of peoples. Rev.: Mr.. Reid has, ..gone to Victoria to attend a meeting of the Synod and made definite arrangements for the supply of the Presbyterian church here. The field extends from Gifford to Warwhoop on the B. C. E. R east and west, and from the Fraser river to the Yale road north and south. There was a good attendance at the Communion service in the church' here on Sabbath 2nd hist, when the Rev. Alexander Dunn, D.

Now it does not seem that Mr. Bowser after striving to climb the ladder of fame in provincial politics will give up the leadership so easily.

Activity in Canada An important t'eauture offhe Red Cross work arethe hospital visitors who bring the wounded into personal touch with the Society, and collect information that serves considerably to alleviate the anxiety of relatives. Recently Mr.' Caspar Clarke, of East 'Toronto,after reading inthe casualty lists, that his brother was wounded, cabled tothe Red Cross in London, and in two clays received full particulars as to the nature of the wound. This information has been gathered by a Canadian Red Cress visitor in Boulogne. This staff of visitors now numbers 400. The Duchess of Connaught- Canadian Red Cross hospital at Cliveden is constantly winning golden opinions for its efficiency and perfect organization, ft is .considered a model hospital and,a great tribute to Canadian Red Cross effort. Taking all departments into consideration the Canadian Red Cross is doing admirable work abroad. The only limit to the good it can accomplish is the limit of contributions from Canada. Every increase of Red Cross effort in Canada gives the Red Cross so much power to ameliorate the unhappy lot of Canada's wounded and prisoners.

The activity ofthc Canadian Red Cross in England ana at the front is closely connected with the proseper- ity of the Society in Canada. Any diminution of Red Cross enterprise on this side of the wafer would mean inevitably an increase in the suffering ofthe wounded. The Red Cross movement in Canada however is advancing like a great tidal wave Almost every branch each month repoorts new high records ing goods and money. The total of supplies passing throughthc shipping- departments ih Toronto, St. John and Halifax is constantly increasing. tn consequence of this the Canadian Red Cross abroad is able to report a steady expansion of the scope of its activity. It is now supplying comforts to Canadian . wounded in 71 hospitals in tlie Shorncliffc area. From its Boulogne warehouse it. issues supplies to four Canadian General hospitals, four Canadian Field ambulances and five Canadian Stationary hospitals in France.
