OTTAWA, July 14—-Such major political conundrums as the date of the general election, reaction of the old line parties to the birth of the "R8COK1SbfilCtiOI1lStS' headed by Hon. H. H. Stevens, and the names of those who will be chosen for thenumerous Senatorial and other vacancies remained unsolved to- day after a week of Cabinet 0mm- oil activity.

Appearance of the new political body headed by Prime Minister R. B. Bennett's fonner Minister of Trade and Commerce, was the political feature of the week with the announcement by Mr. Stevens in Ottawa last Sunday, and the release in Toronto, Friday, of the party's platform.

Mir. Bennett declined to make any public comment on either event and Liberal Leader W. L. Mackenzie King remained equally Qlest. Mr". Stevens’ declaration he would have a. candidate in every riding led to some belief the gen- eral election date would be ad- vanced but there was nothing to support such an opinion.

Efforts to arrive by negotiation through diplomatic eharmekz, art some agreement by which Japanese objections to trading conditions with Canada might be satisfied, occupied the government to a great extent during the week, but ndidetails of the_ discussions were made known. Routine matters also called for considerable activity among the ministers.

‘The long rest prescribed for Mr. Bennett by London specialists when he attended the King's Jub- ildel and which he postponed un- til prorogation of Parliament, has not yet been possible. The Prime Minister was expected to have started last week for a fortnightb sojourn at some watering place for‘ t-he benefit of his health and toiprepare for the rigors of a cam- paign. But he is still in Ottawa and was unable to say when he might get away.

Arithmetic Problem Baffles Comnimers

LONDON, July l4 - Oliver Stan- ley, new president of the Board of Education, is frankly puzzled. And it's all over a litle question in simple arithmetic set in a secondary school entrance paper for Welsh children of 11 years old. This is the question:

"A rabbit 40 yards from its burrow sees a greyhound six yards r away. The rabbit makes for its bur-

rfiiv with leaps of five feet. It is im- mediately chased by the greyhound with leaps of nine fect. The rabbit, however, takes three leaps for every two of the greyhounds. How far from its burrow is the rabbit qugntr"

U ited Church W. M. S. Rally,

A most successful rally of the W. M. S. of the United Church was held in Clifton. New London hall on Wednesday. July 10.

Mrs. Hammond Toombs presided and the devotional exercises were in charge of Long River WMS. The Owning hymn was "O Master, Let Me Walk With Thee," with Scrip- ture reaxiing from John 12th. “If any man serve me let him follow me." To live out the doctrine oi’ the Cross we must live unsclflshly. We need Christ in us to really ‘for- give as He forgave. Prayer and the hymn “Blest be the Tie That iBinds" concluded the worship per- 0d

The address of welcome was given by Mrs. Ray McLeod and responded to by Mrs. Frank Deacon.

A duet “Ivory Palaces" was given by Mrs. Eldridge and Mrs. Will Schurman and was much enjoyed. The roll call of auxiliaries, circles, and bands was answered by about 100 delegates.

Reports from the different secre- taries were heard and greetings from Mrs. W. A. Thomson, who urg- ed that the W.M.S. women be alive to the little opportunities and do our bit in His name.

Just as each small bit of stone is needed in the walls of a. great building, s0 every little act we do for Jesus is finding a permanent place in the eternal Kingdom of God. The mesage cf the Christian Ste- wardship Secretary, Mrs. A.J. Math- eson urged the women to keep the 10th year Objective. of a ten percent increase, before us. Our givings to . His work are determined by how much we love. as well as by our abi- llty to give. Mrs. Frizzeli. Temper- ance Secretary, reported that more children had studied the Scientific Temperance Course this year and this indicates increased interest in Temperance ivork.

The pantomime "Spring in the Brown Meadcws" was put on by the Lot 16 Mission Band. The beauti- ful costumes worn by the children added much to the enjoyment of the perfonnance.

The playlet “Love's Crucible," giv- en by Clifton W.M.S., was also much enjoyed.

An interesting question box forum was in charge of Mrs. D. Gordon and Mrs. A. S. McKay. One way to interest more women is to appoint a different leader for the devotional period for each meeting.

During the quiet half hour prayer was offered by Mrs. L. R. Allen. and Mrs. Toombs spoke on the words of ur Theme Hymn. "This is My Fa- ther's World, the beauty we are sur- rounded with belongs to Him, and if we are conscious o; His love, We will see Him in all that's fair. He speaks to us, but we so seldom are listening. Let us g0 back to our so-

O

our Father, caring for us and let us return His love.

The devotional period or the eve- ning meeting was in charge of Cav- endish Y. P. S. and was a beautiful service.

A paper on Tlthing written by NTrsD. K. Ross and read by Mrs. A. S. McKay, reminded us that tithing means, we should give 10 per can't of our income, wages, increase or profit to the lord. That does not make us owners of the nine-tenths that are left. God's rights in the remainder are Just as before the tenth is paid. He owns it, we are stewards of it, and so are respons- ible to God for what we d0 with it. We pay a tenth that. is a. debt we owe to the Icrd. and from the nine- tenths comes our free-will offering. Someone has aply said. ‘The tithe is to test our consecration."
