Mrs. Margison stated three prominent questions bein asked by those making ar- rangements "What do want to be? have? and What is that while preparations were under Way for the National convention next summer, she had noticed What kind of Association do I want us to Na- ak eae eae from the left, Mrs. Michael Jacula, treasurer; Miss Ruth Higgins, executive suffragette movement had form- ed the basis for the YWCA.

She had come to the conclusion that she must put the individual first because there could be no answer to the others apart from the individual member. "Down through the ages women had been searching for identification.

Last year Mrs. Lymburner was appointed by the Honor- able Staniey J. Randall, min- ister of Economics and De- velopment, Government of On- tario, to direct the women's program for the department, working particularly in the On- tario Trade Crusade for the development of trade and in- dustry in Canada and abroad.

"Rapidly changing times re- quire a constant reappraisal of one's attitudes and a. constant testing of one's values," she said. The purpose of the YWCA was to build a climate to enable members to re-evaluate them- selves, to give them an oppor- tunity to seek out with others) what life means. Mrs. Margison stated that there was a definite need for a survey, to recognize growth needs of teen-age girls and mid- dle-age club women, for which the national convention was go- ing to try to find the answers this summer. The answers would be found in programs in the form of workshops, . discussions, and personal opinions, which would affect the very structure of the YWCA in matters of staffing, counselling and its other. many activities. | She said that there was a spe- {\cial role for Christian lay move- ments, such as the YWCA, in the world revolution of today.) Women were needed as leaders who understand themselves, their needs, motivations and re- sources. It was a problem in humanities which women could not afford to turn their backs on. 'All humans are tied to one another and must be bound to one another in love," she con- cluded, Mrs. H. B. Armstrong, in thanking Mrs, Margison, stated that she had made the local YWCA members realize that they must search themselves for the motivations and. resources to carry on as local leaders.

By BOB THOMAS HOLLYWOOD (AP) -- The death of Jeanette MacDonald erased another great name from the star-filled roster of Hollywood's. golden era. As these unique personalities pass from the scene, we realize how profoundly our lives were affected by movies in the great decade of the 1930s. It may have been the greatest burst of cre- ativity in the history of enter- tainment. Certainly more indel- ible stars were created than at any other time. of the originals, a rare star whose off - screen personality |matched her film roles. She/| time Death Of Jeanette MacDonald Recalls Golden Era Of Movies told me after her death: "They used to have real shouting matches on their sets, and all of us would say, 'Well, this is it --no more MacDonald-Eddy pic- tures.' And then at the end of the working day they would make a date to go out to dinner together.'" In 1942, they made their last and most modern film together --the Rodgers-Hart I Married An Angel.
