The service flag given by Mrs.
Thomas Cregan was placed in the
church and dedicatedto1 the 10 boys,
members of. the congregation, who
have left to serve their country.
Some were volunteers, some were
drafted, some are now across and
some are undergoing training in the
camps in this country, but all left
with the firm purpose of doing their
share in the great cause for which
their country called them. Rev.
Father Mahieu performed the cere
mony. Henry. Narcotic and Ed.
B%russeau holding the flag the first
two boys left with the last draft.
Ed. Brusseau expects to leave this
month. That they may remain firm
in their purpose and when their work
is we'll done return home safe is the
earnest prayer of this congregation,
of which they. are members.
The mission preached here by the
Rev. Father Lortie, O. M. l., of
Montreal was deeply interesting to
the large numbers who daily filled
our new church to its full capacity,
that a g%reat.deal of good resulted
from the good work done blythe Rev.
erend Father is an assured fact and
many thanks are due our pastor. Rev.
Father Mahieu for bringing him here.
The dedication of our new church
by Right. Reverend Bishop O'Reilly
took place Thursday, June 18th, also
a large class were confirmed by the
bishop. The number was fully double
the seating capacity of the church,,
1t being at least $50. The cere-
monies were most beautiful and i'm
pressive and combined with those of
the mission week will long remain
with all who were present.
The entertainment given by the
Csholic children and members of the
Junior Red Cross took place last Sat.
ufday, owing to the wet weather and

NOTES


The knitting rally at Mrs. Dock
steader's home was we'll attended. A
demonstration of foods, canned and
dried, and a homemade fireless cook
er were objects of interest. Miss
Dorothy Price gave a very good sur
vey of the food situation and explain
ed fully all that the government re-
quires of us in food conservation, and
our duty in self-denial along this line.
The illustration in the July number
of the Ladies Home Journal, showing
the size our conservation flour barrel
should be, and around it the one we
~disloyally use which is several times
larger, brings to our minds the neces-
sity for more careful planning along
this line in the next few months. The
food administration request that no
wheat be used until September was
discussed. Samples of bread made
from substitutes were tested, one hav-
ing oatmeal and the other cornmeal
as a foundation.
The Langdon shipment of knitting
for June was all that the government
asked for, less three helmets which
may be sent after the fair is over.
The quality Of the work was the very
best yet sent out, both as to exact
length and shaping. Not more than
80 pairs of toes had to be ripped and
re-made. Let us have perfection in
the toes in the July shipment. Then
our work will be a credit to the
chapter 200 pairs of socks and one
sweater were included in this ship
ment. Of these, South Langdon knit
ted go pairs, Langdon Juniors so
pairs, and the Seniors 80 pairs.
The July quota will be 200 pairs of
socks, and three helmets. We must
not fail to keep knitting by us. 1t
would be objectionable to fall below
by a single pair. Ourssoldiers are not
taking a vacation. Why should we
need one?

Rev. Foley, the pastor of the Metho-
dist church at Langdon preached a
beautiful sermon to a congregation
that packed the church to the doors.
The casket was covered with flowers
contributed by the lodge of Yeomen

the Red Cross, of both of which or.
CARNATIONS Mrs. Smith had been an
active working member during her
lifetime. There were also wreaths

of the family, of, whom she was be-
loved by cores Few living in or
near this community but what can
testify to the ever ready willing
ness of Mrs. Smith to give both of
her time and sympathy in time of
sickness and trouble. She was of
such q character of womanhood that
she will be sadly missed, both by
the family and in the community
in which she had lived such a useful
and beautiful life.
