FRED RILEY WILL ADDRESS CLUB OH BRITjSH TEACHING Prominent Aberdeen Minister, Katlte Britisher, to Address Mason Coun ty Women's Club on Jitxt Friday. Rare opportunity will be given to members of the Mason County Woman's Club nt their regular meet ing Friday, December 1st, when Rev. Fred Riley will deliver a lecture on "Community Education of England Compared to America." Rev. Fred Riley, of Aberdeen, Ohio, was born in England in. the vicinity of the city of Sheffield, the great steel center. In the early days of youth, his ambitions were directed towards the scholastic profession as teacher, but, through force of circumstances, he was compelled to forego this desire, and he directed the talents he pos sessed to other important phases of public work, and was one of the prom inent civic workors of the town and district In which he resided up to the tlmo of the outbreak of the world war. Rev. Riley's father spent thirty years of his life In the active service of municipal government of the town, and was for a number of years the mayor of the city. This was an unique opportunity for young Riley to become acquainted with the many aspects of civic life, as for a number of years he served as secretary to his father, dur ing which time Education, Sanitary Board, Child Welfare, Hospital and Health Bourds, and other Important duties came under the scope of his u-tlvltleB. Rev. Riley thereby became acquainted with community life and progress and was very much in de mand as a public speaker on all ques tions of social and economic matter. He thereby gained a very wide ex perience and this, coupled with the fact that he has done extensive work as a lay preacher in the Weslcyan Methodist Church of England, gives him a wonderful knowledge of the needs and requirements of community life. Before the outbreak of the world war. Rev. Riley was a, mechanic .by trade and served a term of service as Second Chargeman of a large water works corporation, supplying a pop ulation of 22,000 people, thus giving him an Inside knowledge of the work ing of municipal projects and organ iratlona. In the curly days of the world war, ho voluntarily enlisted in the British army in the ranks and saw four years' active service in France and Belgium, ialninq several distinctions for brav ery and devotion to duty. At the close of tho war, he returned to his old home but felt the call from God to visit this country and take up active work of a minister of tho Gospel, and eventually was assigned by the West Ohio Con ference to tho pastorato of the Aber deen Circuit. Rev. Riley with his accomplished wife and bright little daughter came to America In August 1921. They have made many warm friends in this coun try during the short time they have been with us, and their many friends In Maysvllle and Mason county wel come them into our city on this occa sion. Every member of the Mason County Woman's .Club should hear Rev. Ril ey's lecture on Friday, December 1st. XOTICE.
