gow. the Clyde, Loch Lomomtl London and Paris. In connection with London she told how great areas about st. Paul's Cathedral and about Westminster Abbey had been reduced to rubble by bomb- ing but these two great churches had remained to serve as inspira- tion to the people. She also de- scribed I visit to the British House of Commons and told how she had sat there from midafter- noon until ten o'clock at night in order to satisfy her desire to se.-. Winston Churchill. In France she visited a small town church where she saw on a World War I me- morial the names of two hundred and twenty local men. She remem- bered that to this number of war dead must be added those of World War II.

On the night of their arrival fn Copenhagen the delegates attend- ed a special service in Copenhag- en Cathedral, conducted in the Danish language by a woman vicar. The King and Queen were present at this service and also at a reception the following day. At the Convention many world prob- lems were discussed and a much greater insight pertaining to them was gained by those present.

Mrs. Macbeod spoke at some length of her visit to Holland where she was guest in a Dutch home. She referred to the fru- gality "with which Dutch families must live but said that they have such great love for their country that most of them would not want to live anywhere else. She came away with a very great respect for the Dutch people. "The'Europeans." said Mrs. Mac- Leod, "think we live in a land of milk and honey. And we do," she added, "but we don't know it. We have so much we don't know what to do with it but we complain and look repeatedly to the Govern- ment for help. she warned that there is danger for us here in Canada if we kecp going to the Government for help. If we keep giving the Government control we do not know how soon we may be made into a Czecho-Slovakia. Are we going to give away what our forefathers worked so hard to at- tain? European people have this dread over them every day. We are in a free country. We have a wonderful country here." she con- cluded, "and it is worth working for."

Presiding over both sessions of the Convention was Mrs. Ralph Rennie, president of Alma W.1. and Mrs. John Clark of Alma was secretary. Mrs. Isaac Dunbar of Alma welcomed the delegates and Mrs. Robert O'Brien of Laurettrl made reply. Some eighty delegates. representing nine Institutes, an- swered the roll call. The various Institutes reported such activities as school improvements. Red Cross work, donations to charitable pur- poses. ordering fish oil capsules for children. prizes and treats for school children, treats to hospital and Sen patients. carol singing at hospital, sponsoring hot lunch pro- ject at school, Red Cross Swim- ming and Water Safety Course. Boy Scouts and Cubs, and Well Baby Clinic. Some Institutes re- ported interesting and instructive programs at meetings. In one dis- trict it very interesting talkton her

native London was given by an English wnr bride, Miss Mary Robin commended

the Institutes for their fine re- ports. and gave information about the Musical Festival Association's scholarship for refresher courses in music, about the Drama Festiv- 3 al Association and about the han- dicrafts display building which is to be open at Cavendish all sum- mer. Miss Robin then gave a very interesting talk on the making of articles suitable for bazaars.
