Water is the costly part of
doing the laundry, not the
detergent, 300 delegates to the
annual convention of Guelph Are
Women's Institutes were told.
Mrs. Mel Craig and Mrs. Jim
Armstrong represented Bluevale
W.I. at the convention.At the
November meeting of the
Bluevale W.I., held at the home
of Mrs. Armstrong, Mrs. Craig
related the following events from
the Nov. 3 - 4 convention.
Horne economists Nancy
Schmidt, Karen Chisholm and
Jane Pengilley made suggestions
for saving water, electricity, and
heating fuel in the home. Some
ideas were: When cooking a
roast, turn the heat off half an
hour before it's finished - the
oven heat will finish cooking it;
don't set your water heater higher
than 140 degrees Farenheit - it's
unnecessary; flourescent lighting
is five, times as efficient as
incadescent lighting.
Mrs. Verna Maluske of
Chesley, president of the
Federated W.I's of Ontario, said
the Erland Lee Home at Stoney
Creek, where the W.I. as founded
80 years ago, will be maintained
through a foundation fund begun
this year. During W.I. week in
June this year, .1,416 people
visited the historic site. Another
W.I. week is planned for June 5 -
9 next year.
