Mrs, Noblitt spoke on the theme "Members See, Officers Foresee," "You are here because you are officers," she said. "Good leaders need ability, clean hands, dispatch, impartiality, enthusiasm and good humor. We must have the ability to understand people, good manners, gentleness and good will." "We should show impartiality to all members and keep an open mind, on all subject, as to race, color and creed," she continued. "With patience, bring a project to a good conclusion, with good example and clean hands. We need ambition to go in the right direction. Many directions are found in the Hand Book. Enthusiasm overcomes obstacles." "The W.I. has a long history of accomplishments, but we must not rest on past laurels," she concluded. "The 1972 project is to increase branch membership 20 percent.

The Adelaide Hoociless home, which is owned by F.W.I.C., the work in the North West Territories, Winter Works programs and the Opportunity for Youth program. "What kind of a member we should be?" she asked, "The '75th Anniversary proves we have a great heritage to live up to. A nation may not rise higher than its homes. We must strive for better homes, communities, and a better world. We should work with and listen to the Youth of the World. Have we let them down?" "Do we appreciate the Sr, Citizens and the wonderful heritage they have passed on," the speaker queried. "Canada is a leader in the world with its multi racial peoples, we are conservative, we have the freedom to think and freedom of choice. We must keep our nation's development and beware that we do not pollute the water and the air. A good community keeps up to date in society. Does the community know about the good qualities of the W.I. or do we keep itto ourselves. As a responsible world citizen, give something of yourself back to the community," Miss Helen McKercher announced that the F.W.1.C. has given $5000 to help Ontario W.I. with the purchase of the Erland Lee Home, which option will be picked up in June 19'72.
