Sorry to learn an infant Stephen Martyn underwent surgery in Oshawa Hospital and his brother Robbie had a tonsilectomy in Port Perry Hospital. A beautiful day helped welcome the usual favorable attendance for the yearly Decoration Day at Pine Grove Cemetery. The appropriate service was arranged by 1.0.0.F. with Rev. Chas Clarke as speak- er. Mrs. Marion Webster on behalf of Rebekah Lodge (who formed a delegation on the stage too) rendered a lovely vocal number. Mr. Fred Christie, president of the cemetery board voiced a special thank you to the caretaker Mr. Geo. Hall for the neatness of the grounds. Actually as one browsed around, the familiar phrase Say It With Flowers, in loving memory of the de- ceased, seemed to spell it all out. The U.C.W. appreciate the thoughtfulness to the Wozneys who shared their premises for the Yard-Bake Sale. This could not have materialized if people had not contributed and people had not purchased. As a result we are happy to report a healthy sum was realized. Many thanks to Florence Smith and Myrtle Snelgrove when local women and women from far and near thronged the Presbyterian Church parlors to admire the fruits of the Quilting Club Display and truly it was a case of quilts from wall to wall. While chatting over a cup of tea one could imagine the thousands of stitches, see the attractive colour schemes, and oodles of designs completed the work of the needle-thread ladies. It would be a problem to pick a favourite quilt. But the way the art of quilt-making was first born in Nova Scotia around the 1780's. We are happy for Rev. and Mrs. Chas Clarke felt grate- ful to be alive to go into Toronto and join with others at Charles Re-union class of a few decades ago.
