KNOX CHURCH

ANNUAL MEETING:

The annual meeting of Knox United Chureh was held on Mon- day, February 25th. All depart- ments of the congregation wer well represented, and satisfactory reports given. ‘The meeting was opened by a skort devotional ser- vice led by the minister, Rev. A. I}. Hayes. after which Mr. J. Boor- man spoke on behalf of the Sunday School, thanking all concerned for the larger quarters given to the School, but adding that further space was necessary in order to take care of the work. = ‘This in it- self is a healthy sign. One sug- gestion was that a room be setaside entirely for the Primary depart- ment and that equipment in the way of an organ or piano together with small tables be provided. Mention was made of tne contribu- tions made towards Missions by the children, also to the Chinese Famine Relief Fund. A vote of thanks was tendered teachers and officers for their splendid work throughout the year.

Alterations on the old Union Bank Building are not being made to accommodate the cash on hand belonging to the Ladies’ Aid, but it can be said that 1928 was a good year, A substantial balance was reported, but as all know, a larger portion of this is earmarked for the new Chureh building. About 34 members belong to the Aidand the average attendance is bigh

The Minister reported on behalf)

of the session and stated that four- teen new members had been receiv-

ed into full communion during the }

year. The minister expressed the hope that many would join the Church at this Easter season. An opportunity will be givén at an early date. The need of enlarging the session to at least five was em-

phasized that the work might be |

better distributed and more

be given the Minister for his speei- |

al work. The report of the managing board showed a small deficit. This is good thing, for some have the idea that the Chureh can be finaneed, on loose collection and occasional small subscriptions. Not today If the people of the United Chure h gave a tenth of their incomes there he no need of appealingdor *

speci-

als,’’? nor wondering how expenses |

could be met. The idea of steward- ship must be emphasized strongly, lest in these days of prosperity the people forget their part in the Kingdom.

A Board of Managers was elect- ed to serve two years, consisting of H. W. Chambers, Norman Clarke, W. J. MeCoy, H. Hawkes, Dr JJ. L. Clarke, C. Gibbs, Bruee Parker,

FIRST INTERIM PAY- MENT 1928 POOL

Under date of Mareh 1st bution was made of first payment on deliveries to 19 amounting to 12 eents per on practically all grades, except No.6 where the amount was 10 eents a bushel. In Alberta this distribution to Pool members ag-

gregated approx. $6,500,000,

distri- interim 28 Pool bushel

In setting this payment a number of features must be taken into con- sideration by the Central Selling Ageney, Since the first year’s ep- eration of the Pool it has been the policy to make the first interim payments sufliciently conservative to permit the Selling ageney to eon- tinue a selling policy that in their opinion may procure ultimately the highest returns to the grower, un- hampered by any turn the market may take, when a large volume of crop remains unsold. To pursue. such a poliey consistently through- out the whole season, the Selling ageney must be at all times in oa strong finaneial and market posi- tion. Should we at anytime make too large an initial or interim pay- nent on any grade the net returns to the grower would probably suffer as a consequence,

Further it is necessary to fix the mount of payment several weeks in advanee oof setual date in rder to take eare of the enormous labor required in balancing and closing the accounts of each grower and completing eheques for pay- nent Vhe Alberta Pool alone has many thousands of individual ae- counts, and with this reeent pay- ment issued over 58,000 cheques, and the greatest care must he exer- cived to insure accuracy,

It is absolutely essential that the Canacian Wieent Pool proceed carc- fully and on sound dines to insure the safety and socurity of its mem- bers Many farmers in this prov- ince have only reeently joined be- peause of the facet that the Pool’s first five vears of operation con- vineed them that the organization was being administered and con- dueted along sound business lines, and further realized that the Pool’s system of orderly marketing sound in prineiple

PREMIER KING ON THE QUESTION OF RESOURCES

Ottawa.--The whole vexed ques- tion of the return of the natural re- sources to the western provinces was ventilated in the House of Commons | recently. In a lengthy speech, Prem-|! ler Mackenzie King reviewed the his-| tory of the natural resources problam and outlined the position today.

In brief, the situation at present, as dealt with by the prime minister, is as follows:

The province of Alberta is now} considering an offer from the Do. |

minion government of the return of; {ts natural resources coupled with! the payment to it of a amounting to $562,000 annually for} all time.

Saskatchewan has refused an offer} of the transfer of its lands “without | any strings attached,” and the pay- | ment of the present subsidy.

Agreement has been reached to transfer to British Columbia lands!/ in the Peace River block and the} railway belt. At present officers of| the departments concerned are working on the necessary accounting having to do with the transfer.

With respect to Manitoba, a com- mission is now engaged on matters; concerned with the handing over to that’ province of its lawful re- sources.

The Prime Minister made only passing reference to the Seven Si ters Falls lease to the Winnipeg Electric Company. The leader of the opposition had been critical of the haste which Mr. Bennett claimed, prompted the government in its re- turn of the natural resources to Manitoba. |

Earlier in the continued, the same condemned the government in its delay in desling with this matter. Mr. King remarked, amid laughter, that “the whole reason of the haste! was to avoid delay.”

You Cant Dye aDress

with Promises!

You can't dye a dress— no matter how careful you may be—without real color. That's the idea behind Diamond Dyes. They are made to give you real service. They contain from three to five times more aniline than other dyes on the market.

,, Next time you want to dye, try Diamond Dyes. See how easy it is to use them, Then compare results. Note the absence of that re-dyed look; of streaking, or spotting. See how soft, bright, new looking the colors are, Then observe how they keep their brilliance through wear and washing. If you don’t agree Diamond Dyes are better dyes, your dealer will refund your money,

The white package of Diamond Dyes is the original “all-purpose” dye for any and every kind of material, It will dye or tint silk, wool, cotton, linen, rayon or any mixture of materials, The blue package is a special dye, for silk or wool only. With it you can dye your A valuable articles of silk or wool with results equal to the finest pro- fessional work. When you buy—remember this. The blue pack- age dyes silk or wool only, The white package will dye every kind of goods, including silk and wool. Your dealer has both packages.

For a moment Connie was silent. “When—when my dreams come true,” she responded with an eni5ar- rassed smile.

Then he told her of the cily and its ways and the things people did She listened, not with amazement, but with a contented smile, as though what he told her was confirmation of her dreams. But when he told her of the grand opera, the music, the costumes and the singing, her grey eyes wide with longing, she sighed} deeply.
