Following the singing of the opening Ode, our President, Mary Cannon welcomed everyone. The roll call "Name a way to stretch a dollar," brought many in- teresting and original answers. We were pleased to have Coun- cillor Marilyn Pearce with us. She brought greetings from the coun- cil, and congratulated us, in par- ticular, on our show of concern for the environment, by making a donation toward the planting of shrubs and trees to beautify our area. There are three charter members of this branch still liv- ing, Clara Warren, May Williams, and Mae Raines, two of them were present. There was some reminiscing by Clara Warren about how this branch was '"born" in 1935, also several other members recalled other in- teresting happenings over the years. The Women's Institutes originated in Stoney Creek, On- tario, in 1897, and has grown, un- til today its members number nine million, world wide. It is non- sectarion, non-partisan, and non- racial, and it's stated aim is to develop a more abundant life for rural people. Among other things, we have the W_.I. to thank for the flashing stoplights now madatory on all school buses - a resolution that started at the branch level, then passed to provincial level. Among many other resolutions to pro- mote health and safety, which can be attributed to the W_I. is the one for wrapped bread, which was pointed out tous ina reading com- pose by Maude Stell, and given at our anniversary meeting. We are proud to be members of this worthwhile organization, and want to thank the committee who planned the program, did the decorating, made the favors, and arranged such a lovely lunch, complete with birthday cake - and good fellowship enjoyed by all those'present? * + + ttre It was nice to have some of our men folk join with us. The even- ing began with a dessert tea at 7:30, with many yummy desserts to choose from. President Lois Daw called the meeting to order at 8:15, with a call to worship. Scripture was read by Ruth Oliver. "Now Thank We all our God" and '"The Little Brown Church in the Vale" was sung. We were pleased to have Bill Burgess as our special speaker for the evening, and he shared with us the history of the Old Stone Church at Beaverton. This church is celebrating its' 150th anniversary this year. Con- struction of the church began in 1840, and was completed in 1860, when the balconies were put in. Services began in the church before it was finished, using planks of wood for seats. Summer services are still held in the church, being the first Sunday in June, July, August and September. The Ladies' Bible Class met at the home of Florence Ashton last Wednesday evening. The meeting opened with the singing of "'A Christian Home."

She asked each person present to share a few happy memories of their mothers. Sheila Parrott and Bernice read two Mother's Day 'poems from "Ideals." Everyone enjoyed a friendly chat over the tea cups. There was a gooa attendance at morning worship last Sunday morning at Burns. Rev. McEn- tyre delivered an inspiring message titled "Inheritance of the Humble." Scriptures were read by Bernice Gardner and Barbara Porter.
