He expressed wil- lingness to meet with the group, so it was suggested that meeting should be considered on next year's agenda. Basic plans for meetings and pro- jects are planned a year ahead and in view of this Mrs. Jean Payne, tour co-ordinator asked members to think of possible places to visit for next fall's outing. Devotions were conducted by the group led by Mrs. Ken Ashby who gave the call to worship. Scripture was read by Mrs. H. Reeve and prayer by Mrs. Ashby.
