Mrs. Martyn con- venor for the program read a timely poem about "Summer" after which Mrs. McArthur introduced Mrs. George Wolfe, our guest speaker, who gave an infor- mative talk on 'Food Additives and the Adverse Effect they have on your Health." Mrs. Wolfe spoke about many of the additives and while it is necessary some should be added to food to get a proper balance where nutrients have been destroyed. She listed many examples of additives as Vitamin D in milk; calcium in flour; Vitamin C in juices etc. She said pesticides used on foods, especially imported goods, were a grave concern and one must be careful of doubtful addi- tives especially for colour, flavour, preserving, etc. Food products should carry a list of ingredients and one, when buying should read the labels carefully even the Health Production Plan is constantly reviewing this eminent matter. Mrs. Samells thanked Mrs. Wolfe for her message regarding this important phase of health care. This was endor- sed by all present. After a dessert luncheon, 'the Ode was sung and the Collect repeated. Mrs. Sleep then welcomed all present and thanked those who had helped with W.I. affairs during the summer. The minutes were read and approved. In the absence of our Treasurer, Mrs. Sleep gave a report on our finan- cial situation. The Roll Call, "name a Home Remedy" was well answered. A suggested trip in Sept. was dropped until next month. Mrs. Luke who had attended the Waterloo Con- ference gave a splendid report on her trip, accommo- dations, entertainment, and highlights of the messages she had heard. She brought back several pamphlets to be viewed and thanked the W.I. for sending her as a dele- gate. : It was announced that we won first prize for our quilt at the fair. Our sale price for it is $200 and it is at Mrs. Martyn's home. An auto- graphed quilt made by the W.L's in the 1920's is to be displayed at a Sr. Citizens Card party. Most of the 4-H leaders have been appointed for this season. M. Green and K. McLaughlin are to receive "their gift from the W.I. for Provincial Honours. Mrs. Martyn and Mrs. Adams are to attend the short course at Maple Grove on Sept. 2nd. The Convention is the 2nd and 3rd of November so the date of our November meeting will be changed. The date depends on our speaker who will be one of the young people who spent the summer away from our community. For a Free Estimate CALL: INKING OF CONVERTING TO "ELECTRIC OR GAS HEATING? Scugog Island news by Mrs. Earl Reader Last week, the "Head' U.C.W.got a good start on September 1, when 19 ladies met at the home of Mrs. Pat Fulcher on Gerrow's Beach. As guests, we were pleased to welcome Mrs. Stephens of Estavan, Sask. Miss Beatrice McLean of Locust Hill and Mrs. Schwab of Florida. The Devotional period and study was based on messages and a comparison of importance of the Post Office and the Church in delivering important messages and the results that could arise from delays. We reviewed activities for the near future. The first being the Annual Turkey Supper at the Community Hall, September 22 at 5:30 or 6:30 P.M. Tickets may now be ordered any time from your correspondent. The next event is the Annual "Harvest Home" old-fashioned Church Service at the "Head' museum church at 7:30 p.m. - Sunday, October 3. By Sunday the Church and Sunday School had begun again in the United Church. Tho' it was a holiday week end, the response was very satisfactory. Several newly interested parents brought their children and remained to meet the staff, view the Study material and watch a film, '"The Little Lost Boat'. At present, another nursery teacher is needed as the number is a little large for one person. Can you help? The "Grace" U.C.W. will meet this Wednesday, Sept- ember 8 at the home of Mrs. (heme 4 SEASONS HEATING & AIR CONDITIONING Sgg=5 985-2530 EFFICIENCY EXPERTS *Qualified Serviceman*® *Guaranteed Work® Florence Fralick for a noon luncheon to introduce the new season and get acquaint- ed with new members.

The Topic will be - "If you love your Planet". This will be dem- onstrated in a film and will invite discussion. If you were not contacted, consider your- self welcome. Now, we consider the children's groups and are pleased to announce that Registration night for Brownies, Beavers, Cubs and Guides will take place at the Community Hall, Sept- ember 15 and 16 between 7 and 9 P.M. We trust the interested parents will note these dates. A little later in the month, Wednesday, September 29th, the Women's Institute will hold a workshop in the United Church basement from 1 to 4 P.M. In this workshop, the ladies will learn about the various levels in the Institute and working in the Institute, including the use of the handbook. A portion of the afternoon will also deal with running the organization and taking part in a general business meeting and planning programs. Any interested ladies are welcome. More information is available from Janis Richardson. The Benefit dance for Mr. and Mrs. Sheldon Smith is still in the planning stage for September 18 at Club Annrene. There is a little delay for sale of tickets but phone numbers will be given next week. So you can still set aside this date. This week school days affect the lives of children and adults in many different ways. Those who are now 720 finished view this important phase with mixed emotions and realize they are entering an uncertain future. TT Sa &£ wr, w! > - = +m Was ne SEE a on A, RA Auger 0} ' Se So : _)
