close attention was given the very
thoughtful and interesting paper on "lhs
things That Matter" by Mrs. Charlotte

directors of the Woman's Alliance Her
talk was plea that the future generation
should find in their homes the same in
valuable lessons of sacrifice and devotion
to duty which we have received from the
past generation. That the present day
fault was a lack of that devotional spirit
which was SO prevalent in past genera
tions and closed with the three things
that mattered, viz: Faith, Individual
responsibility and devotion to duty, The
influence we exert over others" This
was followed by an intimate discussion
as to the ways in which the Alliance
could extend its influence for good both
to its members and to the community. A
social hour followed when tea, sand
