Holds District Meet v I j f Orono News On December 10, Bowman-I ville and Maple Grove Women's nstitutes met in the church at vlaple Grove te carry out a pro- ject of co-operative programs in West Durham District. Mrs. Clarence Hayes, Georgetown, was the Instructor f rom. the Depart- ment cf Agriculture and those n attendance spent a" profitable afternoon in the study of corn- nunity enterprises.

One group cf women fouuid a ready market in New York for hand woven fabrics, one woman nade suiting on a- largé loom. The development of handicrafts of a like nature was stressed.
