Hensley Stavcrt was n compari- son of the Statistical and rihoiielu Returns for the year 1927 and 1929. The returns for 1929 were very en- couraging. The Presbyterian Church on P. E.

ring the year, one Young Peoples Society of Christian Endeavor and several Mission Bands. ~

.While the number of scholsi-{ai-id teachers reported were slightly ‘less in 192B than in 1927, yet the number received intqthc membership of the Church from the Sunday Schools was in excess of that of 1927. . ,

The number oi awards Elven for the memorizing oi the Primary and Shorter Cstechisms and scripture pas- sages was much larger in i929 than in 1927.

‘The amount contributed by the Sunday Schools for missions in‘ 1928 was considerably larger than the amount given 1.13011. Both reports were very encouraging.

No attemptihas been made to im- Drovo conditions resulting from the ill timed machine-work done on this place of road last August. At that time sand was piled on the road with

the result that when the fall rains» camp, s veritable quagmire was trial

outcome. This was frcaan into a cou- lloiacrah continuation of ruts. bolas and clumpots. This spring, the a thlwedcutintoanovcnworaa - dition and up to this m; dais,

Mr. Anglia McPhee, resides within two miles of the conditions com- plained of and neither he nor his fel- low representative has dona anything to remedy the condition which is a veritable disgrace and a. very ser- ious handicap to the many who want to make use of- the mad. The atten- tion of the Public Works Department has frequently been directed to this matter, but no action has yet been taken.

London ‘India Problem Big

Iiondon is expanding so rapidly that l it la outgrowing its transportation system, and methods of relief an being studied. Ono plan, advanced by Sir Henry Jackson, M. P., a member of the London ‘Traffic Advisory Coin- mittee, is of fast subway trains ruii- ‘ ning from the center in all directions. and connecting with short-distance mnibus services. He advrrates slim- inating the long-distance bus lines, some cf which travel 10 miles to boil- don anrfcongest both highways and city streets. "Underground and elec- ‘ trified trains will be the only solu- tion of this growing transport prob- lem," he says. London's population in 1902 was 6.500.000. Today it nearly 8,000,000, and all around i210 outskirts new towns are risinsi 8° that the city"! tsnscles have spmil 35 miles.
