He extended a special welcome to' the National President, Mrs. Coffey. He was pleased to hear the reports of the activities of the Island branch were so satisfactory. Wo-i men are the backbone of the’ par- ish life of the church and have; been down through the ages. Or- ganization, however, is something, which has grown in recent years and found necessary today becauser certain groups are attacking the national forms of government and the things which christian men- and women throughout the world hold sacred. On these high prin- cipals are built the very founda-i tlons of the home itself, on which} rests the safety of the Empire. Fnr this reason organizations must band themselves together so that their voice and requests will be heard by those who have the gov- erning of those things within our Empire. It is the religious duty of everyone to stand firm for God and country. The Catholic Women's League have ways and means of improving conditions on the Island and can also assist in other parts of Can- ada. He closed his address with a special appeal to all Catholics to do their best to support the Cath- olic Women's League, Rev. DI. McMahon Rev. Dr. McMahon recently re- turned from a visit to Rome, gave a very fine address on Catholic action as he interpreted lt from the addresses by the Pope, which he had listened to with great ven- eration. The principles of the Catholic action are the advance- l ment of all things pertaining to the activities of the church and can be applied to both men and wo- men. The I-Ioly Father stressed Catholic action in all his addresses, even in these tmubleso times among nations, to people of all nations and gave a similar message to all to work for the glory of God and the good of their country. Catholic action is not new, but in our time has a special meaning. Today it refers more to the work of the laity in the church, and the demand goes out to all for activity. The call has gone out from the Holy Father and it is our duty to respond. Many have not, responded because they have not a proper realization of what is needed. Tb be successful, the right spirit must animate the worker. that spirit is charity and unselfishness. More than ever is the need for Catholic action. The Catholic Women's League has received the blessing of the Holy Father and Catholic wo- men should be proud to belong to such an organization. Rev. Father McMahon made a special appeal to all women to become members of the League. NATIONAD PRESIDENT'S ADD ' i-_ Lz-J The aims and ideals of the Ca- tholic Womerfs League may be most coonprehenfively grasped by a study of the significance of its motto, "For God and Canada." Everyone ls called to some station in life-some to high, some to low- but all have a definite work to ac- complish. The members of the C. W. I... are unique in that they have a two-fold vocation. God does not only call priests and religious to carry out His injunction to teach all nations, nor does the Church consist solely in hierarchy, for without the whole-hearted support and co-oper- ation of all Catholic men and women 1n the "Lay Apostoiate", the ef- forts of priest and religious would be rendered vastly more laborious and proportionately less efficacious. Their teaching, to have the desir- ed result, must. be supplemented by the practical example of lay men and lay women. To do God's work, then, is the League members’ vocation on the one hand. her higher calling; and to strive to gain for Canada her due place among the world's powers, to strive to cultivate in Canadians a single race consciousness Canadian- ism, and to strive for the literary commercial and social betterment of Canada is her other calling, a most notable one. The members of the Catholic Wo- men's League have thcn an exalted vocation. Are they fitted with the requisite qualifications to success- fully accomplish their two-fold mis- sion.

BLANCHARFS Refreshment family life, and their understanding of social justice, Catholic women have a special contribution to make to the national life of our beloved country. Bo diversified is our pro- gramme, organization, travellers‘ aid, family life, social service, study iclubs, recreation, girl guides, legis- lation, and, the vital question of the hour, the motion pictures. Every woman can select her own particular work. Why then diocesan and na- tional groups? Because, united we brlng moral support and growth and development to our association. Each parish group is privileged to bring its report of work to the na- tional, through its diocesan delegate, and from both diocesan and national conventions, can ask for help and receive congratulations and stimul- atlon. As our resolutions state, the coming together not only raises our work, but it provides us with the power t0 speak as s. whole, in na- tional and even international ques- tions. Affiliated as we are with the thirty-two international leagues, we take part in their programme. If I might quote, the underlying purpose of conventions is the devci- opment of leadership, which is the outstanding need of the day. Women who through education, study, home life, social and economic movement, can share with the world the beauty of the true faith. But to be of ser- vice this leadership must be intellig- ent, well informed, clear thinking, well ‘balanced, deeply spiritual ' and voca. they may all be one", so the results of our convention should be a uni- on of forces, the parish contributing to the diocese, and the diocese to the nation at large. In this contribution kindness should govern. Faber says kindness is the turf of the spiritual world, where the sheep of Christ fold gently beneath the shepherd's eye. As you return home, may you be filled with the Joy and inspiration of coming together, held fast by the call of “The Lay Apostolate" in ‘Catholic Action. DIOCESAN REPORT Madam Chairman, Your Excel- lflcy, Your Worship, Right Rever- d. and Reverend Fathers, Madam atlonal President, Visiting Dele- gates, Ladies and Gentlemen: Before giving you a summary of the activities cf the Catholic Wo- men's League, as carried on in the Diocese during the past year, I wish to express to our Summcrside mem- hers and friends, our grateful ack- nowledgement of their kindness in inviting us to hold our convention here, and we wish to prove our ap- preciation by accomplishing impor- tant constructive work. Among our distinguished visitors, we are pleased to have with us our National Presi- dent. Mm Coffey. On behalf of the Diocesan Executive, I extend to you all, a kindly greeting and a cordial welcome. The Charlottetown Diocesan Sub- division of the Catholic Women's League now comprises twenty-eight active and interested sub-divisions. Six of these were organized this year, as compared with ten organiz- ed laet year. However, we hope to complete the organization in the Diocese in the coming year, The usual good work of this or- ganization since its inception has been augmented during the past year by many and varied activities. Trio reports of the Sub-divisions reveal a good financial record, and a sur- prising amount of charity dispensed, despite the general depression. As a result of increased membership, to- gether with persistence and re- sourcefulness in devising ways and means of raising funds, certain sub- divisions realized an amount exceed- ing one thousand dollars. Funds are procured through the medium of concerts, plays, bazaars, card par- ties, ice cream festivals and lotteries. The expenditure of some is chiefly directed towards the provision and improvement of church equipment, contributions to local charity and donations to the Diocesan Institu- tions. The total amount realized in the Diocese during the year was about $8,500. It is our ardent wish that very soon the great majority of Catholic Women will deem it a pleasure and a privilege to join the League, and strive by personal effort, to advance the general welfare of their parish. Social Service and Child Welfare —-Thls work may truly be said to have its origin in the well-establish- ed fact that “the poor we have al- in her work, thereby pursuing their call to the service of God. And as an organized body of Canadian cit- izens, they have every right and ev- ery ability to further the cause of their country. 1t ls evident, there- fore, that they are blessed with at wonderful and rare privilege inas- much as they belong to the Church, the greatest living organization on earth, and inasmuch as they can at the some time do so much for their native land. But n. great privilege of this nature necessarily entails correspondingly great responsibili- ties. Womarrs influence for good or bad is supreme in the home. When we reflect that the home is the cor- nerstone of the entire social struc- ture of civilization, we readily real- ize the staggering importance of this influence of women. Hence the ad- age-the hand that rocks the cradle rules the wcrld. Hence also the tremendous responsibility of the mothers. Because d their rich qrlrituul their high idfih ways with us." The demands are numerous, but all district sub-divis- ions have taken a commendable part in caring for and relieving the poor and afflicted in their parishes. In ,some necessary cases undemourlsh- ed school children are supplied milk or cocoa; money, fuel, and clothing have been distributed, and in some instances medical attention has been provided. Education and Scholarship-Edu- caflon is another favored project of the Catholic Women's League, and received a major portion of mater- ial assistance. Two Diocesan prizes were donated to Prince of Wales College. St. Dunstan's University, and the Ca- tholic schools in the city were re- membered by the Charlottetown Dis- trict. Sub-division.

He- ference was made to the installation of Carnegie Library Branches in several centres of the Province, and the advantages to be derived there- from for study club purposes. It is gratifying to report an increase in the number of clubs, and we confid- ently hope to see this movement gradually assume greater propor- tions. ads is the scene and centre of the life-work of this noble band of wo- from our eastern provinces. They form, as it, were, a link between East and West; and we should, and do cheerfully meet, in a fair degree our C. W. L. obligations towards them. Publicity-Jlhls is a necessary and potent means of encouraging and extending the growth of the League. Many sub-divisions have been faith- ful in sending reports of their ac- tivities to the press. This attracts public attention and interest and helps to keep alive among the sub- divisions a friendly spirit of compet- ition thar, is very desirable and pro- ductive of paying results. Maguzine—The Canadian Iocaguc, our monthly magazine, is nccdful and helpful, and all sub-divisions should make an extra effort towards supporting it. It is the official volcc of our organization, carrying good reading matter, valuable informa- tion. and far-reaching echoes what is being done among our wide- ly scattered sister units. It ls one of our most effective bonds of unity, and should be a regular and ivclcomc periodical to our members. Juniors—The Diocese has so far only one unit, the Charlottetown Juniors. Circumstances during the past year interfered with and ham- pered much actual achievement. They have maintained a good stand- ing howevcr. and are now quilt" hopeful that the present year will see them flourish.

In this Diocese this pledge was largely signed ill all "l" district sub-divisions. A resolution was passed at the National Convention at Quebec last year, recommending the Federation of all Catholic Women's organiza- tions fm- the purpose of str~~thcn- ing Catholic influence and in de- fending Catholic principles. I am pleased to report that Fcdcrntion in this Diocese has met with much’ success.
