Following a fine summary of the good deeds through the years, the programs and good times, Miss Werry con- cluded by saying "I cannot close without expressing appreciation of what is to me the most out- standing and commendable of ahl the achievements of Solina Wom- en's Institute - the ability to work in harmiony through fifty years of highly important service to their society. Not unaware of differences but with a keen in- sight into the higher motives of their fellow-workers, the spirit of unanimity has been delightful and is a wonderful memory to those who have worked together during the past 50 years."1 Life Memberships Life memberships were pre- sented to four members - Miss Nora Werry, Mrs. H. Tink, Mrs. A. J. Balson and Miss Lena Tay- lor. This was done by Mrs. C. Pascoe, Mrs. C. Vice and Mrs. B. Tink. Mrs. W. Leask of Bowmanville, a former W.I. member, gave two enjoyable readings. Greetings from District Presi- dent Mrs. Emmerson of Nestie- ton, were next. Mrs. S. Grant, presented to Solina W.I., from 1 the District, a silver cream ano! sugar with an engraved tray which will always be used' proudly by its members. Mrs. Emmerson introduced Miss LexWis whose theme was "Balancing the Mary and the Martha characteristics." She brought personal greetings from Lady Tweedsmuir, who has been recently in Canada, and also from Laura Rose Stephen of Ottawa. She also mentioned that Miss Bella Miller who organized this group in 1903 is stili living. Miss Lewis concluded by saying: "As you go into the next fiftyj years 'For Home and Country'I remember to balance the Mary and the Martha characteristics. You have accomplished much in ifty years. let this be a chal- lenge to go on." Mrs. John Baker extended thanks to al] attending, to the speaker, and others on the pro- gram, and also to aIl who helped behind the scenes to make this a day to remember.i Following God Save the Queen the 100 guests and members met and reminisced. Mrs. J. Baker. convener, and the committee of Mrs. J. Yellow- lees, Mrs. H. Tink, Mrs. C. Pas-, coe, Mrs. R. Langmnaid and Mrs. S. E. Werry deserve much credit for a well-planned and conducted celebration. "Anniversary is a time of re. view. Let your only looking bacý be to see what others have donE and so make a step forward." Sc said Miss Anna P. Lewis, Toron- to, Director of the Women's In- stitute Branch and Home Ecor. omics Service and guest speakei at the Fiftieth Anniversary cele- bration of Solina Women's Insti- tute held in the Community Hall Solina on Thursday, June 11, 1953. The festivities began at 5.30 p.m. wîth a banquet provided and served by Hampton Service Club. In the centre of the head table was the beautiful anniversary cake made by Mrs. J. R.

Snowden, and Mrs. S. i Dewell in memory of their moth- er, Mrs. Thos. Baker, the first president of the Institute. Decorat ions were blue and gold, the Institute colours.

Reviewed Early Years The early years of Solina W.. were reviewed by Mrs. E. R. Tay- ior. She told how in 1900-1901 Mrs. Thos. Baker, Mrs. Wm. Law and Miss Edith Leask, attended W. 1. meetings in Bowmanville. For two years there were sixteen members in West Durham. Three of these were from Solina. On January 28, 1903, Solina Women's Institute was organized, Mrs. R. J. McKessock, the only living charter member, was present on this 5th anniversary. Mrs. Thos. Baker presided at the first meet- ing. It wvas through her untiring efforts and enthusiasm that the group began and grew. The wom-1 en prepared many fine papers. Debates, short courses and pic- flics were held. In 1912 through the efforts of the Institute the Public Library was started and in 19.52 a thiirt.N-vear dreami of the women became a reality when the old Sons of Temper- ance Hall was moverq, re-model- led and became the present Comi- munitv Hall of which the whole commun itv is justly proud. Mrs. Isaac Hardy read a list of the Past Presidents and Secretar- ies. As she did so, Mrs. R. J. Me- Kessock placed a white carnation in a vase for each deceased mem- ber named.
