DISTRICT CONVENTION THROUGH “WISE” EYES.

Dear Mrs Pervman, .At the Canterbury Provincial Convention, held in New Brighton. 1 was deputed by the “Y.” representatives to write and give you the impressions gained by a “Y.” delegate at her first Convention. First end foremost, I felt it was a great privilege to be pres« at amongst such a body of Christian women, all earnest and enthusiastic in the work they eave undertaken in the W.C.T.U. Matters of importance, such as Peace and Arbitration, Legal and Legislative Reports, Licensing Hill, Bible-in-Schools Hill, and Hills passed at the recent session of Parliament, Anti-Gambling, Youth Problems, Open-Air Schools, etc., which were discussed were both interesting and instructive, and gave much food for thought. The reports from all Unions were extremely interesting, especially the “Y.“ reports. From the latter we have ga’ned many hints for our new hraic.i (North Brighton).

At one of the evening sessions, an item by the Central Brighton “Y’s." entitled “W.C.T.U. in Song and Story,” was very much enjoyed, and | they are to repeat it at a Social to he given by our “Y’s.” this w ek. Yours sincerely, MOLLY M. NORRIE. The Editor is greatly indebted to Mint Norrie. Wish more “Y's." would write to their page.
