History ofJ Women 's Ifl, On 401h A On Wednesday, May 4th, the! Blackstock Women's Institute celebrated their 40tli anniver- sary with a proper birthday party. During the meeting Mrs. Gilbert Merlow presented a pa- per on the history af the branch which she had prepared. The women af Blackstock were for- merly members af the Shirley W. I. but as their numbers be- came too great they broke away in 1915. The foilowing is the history prepared by Mrs. Marlow: REMINISCING ON OUR INSTITUTE'S 4th BIRTHDAY On May 11, 1915, the Victor- ian Women's Institute was or- ganized at the home af Mrs. Frank Stinson, then living in Purpie Hill. Mrs. E. R. Bounsali and Mrs. A. L. Nichais, Bow- manville, were present that day. Mrs. James Henry Free- born was first president and Mrs. John Byers the first sec- retary-treasurer. As the time af organizatian was about the beginning of the lst World War, the members immediately entered into Pa- triotie Work. The first work was not recorded. but in 1916' there is a record of a contribu-' tion af clothing and quilts ta the Belgium Relief, also a bale af lothing ta the Nortbern On- tario Fire Sufferers. The Sol- diers' Hospital averseas was sent 102 quarts of jelly, syrup al7d pickles. Flannel was bought and distributed amang the 1 members to be made into shirts, also yarn for socks, et the Jan- uary meeting 1917. The month's wark was 75 pairs af socks and 12 shirts, and on Jan. 31st a knitting contest was arranged to caver two montbs during which time 900 pairs ai sacks, 15 flannel shirts and 18 cheese-cloth shirts were made. Miss Collins, the Departmental speaker said she neyer before met such en- tbusiasm in soldiers knitting. Boxes wpre sent ta the boys averseas and an one occasion the committee reported send- ing 38 boxes costing $69.99; we also had a prisoner af war and bis box was sent tbrough the British Red Cross. The receipts ta finance this war work were-a grant froin Municipal Cauncil, donations and social functions. A few agreed ta pay $300 for the pri- vilege ai collecting in the town- ship, also a girl's basketball game between Blackstock and Nestieton realized a net profit ai $37 ta send fruit averseas. Bibles, newspapers and scrap books were also sent and this work was actively engaged in until the war was aver. During this busy period, sev. eral short courses in the Com- munity Hall were sponsared by the Institute. The sick and shut-ins were remembered with fruit and flowers spoons ta, the' brides and bank books or baby spoons ta new babies. Bales were sent ta Northern Ontario and Western Canada and the needy in aur own community were helped. After the war was ended and peace declared the Insti- tute contributed $300 to the erectian af a memorial ta the memory of the bays wha did not corne back. We also assist- ed in buying the tablet in hon- aur af the soldiers wba return- ed. We paid the caretaker af the Memorial Park, also the Hydro far the light and bougbt tbe flawers for the flower bed'. We assisted in the erection, af the grandstand, in buying I Ah.
