One of the ceremony. St. Patrick's Luncheon At U.C.W. Meeting A large crowd gathered on Wednesday, March 17 in Trinity Church to be wel- come by Mrs. A. Blair, U.C.W. president. After sing- ing "Be Present at- our Table Lord," the guests were direct- ed into the Sunday School, where they found tables load- ed with a great variety of casseroles from which to choose. The long tables were decdrated with appropriate greens and flowers. Soon tempting desserts were set out. Then everyone had a new problem - how many samples could be piled on one small plate. The serving crew was kept busy dispensing tea and coffee, and clearing the tables during an Irish sing-song. Song sheets were provided while Mrs. J. Munday played the piano, Mrs. H. Jerrery beat the time and Mrs. L. Ayre led the singing. For the finale, Mrs. Ayre sang the verses of "Cockles and Mussles" with everyone joining in the choruses. Mrs. A. Blair called on Mrs. R. Coombes to introduce the guest speaker, Mrs. Joyce McLean of Pickering. Mrs. Coombes told of her involve- ment in her own church as C.G.I.T. leader and Sunday School teacher and in the Oshawa Presbyterial, first as Literature Secretary and now as Second Vice President. Mrs. McLean entertained the audience with a talk on reading. She explained rea- sons for reading - such as to escape from the world around us, or to learn about and explore it, or to travel from our arm chairs. She discussed ways of reading, how to use your own books, and where to get ones you want - here she gave a good plug to the public libraries. Mrs. McLean shared some of her favourites with us. She drew a round of applause by reading from "1925 - And All This!" the hilarious story of "The Train to Goobies". She showed us proudly her Christ- mas present of "The Parallel Bible" which places four translations side by side across the double page in four parallel columns. She men- tioned good books for children, again reading part of the\story of creation from "Bible Stories" by David Kossoff. Her last reading was the whole children's book "Who- body There". She had a large display of books on the platform which could be examined and-or purchased at the end of the program. Mrs. McLean was thanked by the enthusiastic applause and more formally by Mrs. H. Jeffery. Mrs. A. Blair thanked everyone for helping, espe- cially Unit 8 who convened the meeting which closed with the hymn "Blest Be the Tie that Binds."
