Controller Mrs. Jean Newman, act- ing Mayor, brought greetings from the City Hall. She said," women have come from the seclusion of the home, to active positions in public organiza- tions and fields of endeavour. A job is what you make it, women are stan- ding beside men in business. To edu- cate a woman, is to educate a family. She challenged the women to inform themselves on current issues, and com- munity life. She congratulated the W.I. on the stand they take in.the community, under the Banner--*For Home and Country". The encourage. ment the W.I. gives to the New Cana- dians. - Report on "Community Activities and Public Relations" was given by Mrs. Chas. Foster, Creemore. She likened the W.I. member who refuses to work, to a hitch-hiker with a sore thumb. Mrs. E. Armstrong in her remarks, stressed that every member should be working with a convener, on -one of the six committees. The Home should be a happy place to live in, and we should run it co-operately. It won't hurt the boy or girl to prepare sup- per. Report on Home Economics and Health was given by Mrs. C. Mann, Peterborough. Miss Helen McKercher, Director of Home Economics Service, Extension Branch, outlined the development of the Local Leader's training courses, "which are proving very successful.

Mrs. 'Elton Armstrong, introduced the guest speaker, Dr. Margaret Nix, Assistant Professor, Faculty of Med- icine, McGill University, Montreal, P. Q. Dr, Nix said:--People should not be concerned about Russia's latest scientific achievement, or fearful and depressed because any country get a- head in a material way, because it is the spirit of the people to live, and love, and work to-gether, that matters. 'Hitler was a iightly threat to the world in his day--yet, in spite of him, because of what his country did, Bri- tain &nd other Democracies émerged stronger in spirit, than ever before; fear will crush us, love will make us grow. Love of humanity is stronger than any bomb, any satellite. It is a 'potent weapon which is indestructible. The fraternal fellowship which is en- men's Institute should bring with it a sense of well being, and security. Love begins with the new born babe: in the home and flows out through the fam- ily, The home is the bulwark of so- ciety, and the mothers of the country will hold the fort and make the coun- try "strong. Fathers and Mothers have the greatest influence on the child, and many of them worry too much, about not bringing up the child according: to the psychologists book. Don't ask your child to be a Rose if he is a Petunia, she cautioned. Each child has a potential, and the-greatest thing in life, is to develop that poten- tial. This brings in the teacher, the need for more well trained teachers of high qualifications, and patience to do a job, i" Assembly singing opened each ses- sion with Mrs. Kearney at the piano, and Mys. Graham leading the sing- ing. These ladies are from Wood- bridge, and were given. the name "Singspiration" at the Ottawa Nation- al Conference. . The report of Junior activities was given by Mrs. C. Boynton, Woodbridge. Demonstration of girls' work super- vised by Miss Florence Eadie, with "skits" from seven 4-H Clubs. Thur, evening, Mrs. Geo. Searle re-. ported on Agriculture and Can. Indus. tries. She brought her report to a close -with these words:--A prosper- ous Canada depends on sound Agricul- ture and Industry, so we W.I. mem- bers should be vitally interested in these subjects. Dr. Marion Hilliard, Physician in Chief, Women's College Hospital, spoke on "Changing Attitudes in the Treatment of Women". She opened her address by saying her Father was an Irishman -- her Mother a W. L member. Every woman has to assess resources within herself. She must decide what values in life are import- ant, what she wants for her family. The beginning of wisdom, is to under- stand the limits to which you may function--these are your resources. An intelligent woman learns what her li- mits are, she realizes the strains and stresses of her environment. It is not only fretting and worrying, but some- times the thing that gives you plea- sure that wears down your metabolic state, with the result that the woman goes into exhaustion. She said: she was distressed about people who were just too busy to take time to think about these vital matters. Mrs. James Haggerty, Napanee, President of F. W. I. O. installed the officers. . Mrs. Elton Armstrong, Armitage, gave the report of the National Con- vention at Ottawa. She said--The heart beat of a nation beats as one in International Affairs. Are we ag W.

How can we recapture the old friendliness. The Group insurance has taken the place of a neighbour, coming to sit by the sick. Perhaps the sick get better at- tention.

The following resolutions. recejved our 'consideration -- Protest against trading stamps or premiums concealed in packages was registered by resolu- tion passed at the session.
