Last Saturday 0oui- lo0C al 'brarcb, the Scotch Block WJ. hadi a Jubilce turkey supper ard s;ocial evening for iAs memrbers mnd their escorta. According ta an ucnofficial court there werce about eighty-five present. IV la Vwcnty-f oui- yearsamgo thLIa month since our bbnsch. had its f1-iret metir 'ng and nin happy to say several of the ch1arter nmcm- bers were presenit. Our branch ba-s expcrienced the same uips and downs, common to us ail. Soi-e previous memIlbers moved to othecr districts; some havec re- grettably' passed away, but miany, mnany othiers have conne into the fold and becomeý active mem- ber's of our branch. Looking back over the years it seemns al- most incredibie that one group of -womeni could have raised s0 uchimoney,_ done 50 mucli worls and yet with it ail had suich a wodlerful timne togetiier. During the war years we were agctively enriag cd in making quilts, packing baies. knitting and sewing. Now our fiain proi- ect is to assist in the establishi- ment of a local hospital, badly needcd in this district of which the Institute is a part. All in al it was a htrt-war-ming and rnost enjoyabl'e evening,. Partner and 1 came away before theyv started playing cards as, we do not take too kindly to late nights away from home, especially as we expected some of the family the next day. Came Sunday -- a lovely springl-iike day--cars travelling, the highway past here in a con- stant stream. Presently one turn- ed in at our gate - and the TIoronto folk had arrived, They ail came into the bouse except Dave. He amnused himself out- side. Af ter awhile Grandpa took hini for a waik across the fields and along the creek. At first ail went well and then like q boit fromn the blu--e David said !'I wannt to go for a swim" and headýed for the creek. Fortunate- ly Partner just mranaged to grab hlm, told hlmi he couldn't go swimming,> the wiater was too cold. And then David took to the yelling "I want te go swim- mningl" It wasn't a happy occa- sion for Grandpa as Dave is a big boy for his age and bis threze-and-a -hall yearod strenigtb was; greater than bi s grandfather's. But they arrived home safely, botb of themn a lit- tle the worse~ for the tussie of wîlls. Then his Dad took Dave for a walk, Poor littie cbap, hec is like something !et out of a cage when lie gets to the coun- try and ends up by getting over- tired, At supper time he Teaned, 1his bead against hie'- Dad and- actually went to sleep.

Then came the "Chllenge" and like Daveý, 1 fell asleep.
