Ethel Wl celebrates 85 years
Whether Mr. Groundhog saw
his shadow or not, didn’t deter 80
Women’s Institute ladies from
attending the 85th anniversary
celebration in the Ethel Communi
ty Centre for the Ethel W.I. on Feb.
2.
President Joan Smith welcomed
the visitors and began the meeting
with the opening ode and O
Canada. She also thanked Gladys
Ellsmore for providing the beauti
ful silk flower arrangements
adorning the hall and for baking
the anniversary cake. Barbara
Grube read the best wishes cards
and letterswhich the Ethel W.I.
had received.

There is a work meeting of Ethel
W.I. on Wednesday afternoon at
Pat Keffer at 2 p.m.
Margaret McMahon introduced
Pat Latta of the Robarts School in
London where she is the family
services consultant. Pat gave a
little bit of history on sign
language, all the while using sign
language as she spoke. She then
put everyone to work learning
various easy phrases, “Hi,” “how
are you?”, “thank you”, “I love
you”, etc. plus the alphabet. Pat
also explained the use of facial
expressions is helpful in sign
language.
A question period followed her
presentation and the ladies noticed
that a few finger muscles not
normally used were put into action.
Pat was thanked for her presenta
tion which was enjoyed immensely
with a gift of money for the
pre-school program’s playground
equipment. Margaret Shortreed
dressed in valentine red with
hearts and Majorie Huether dress
ed in funny daffodil yellow were
aptly attired to welcome spring and
got everyone in the mood with their
lively sing-song. Picture taking
and the cutting of the anniversary
cake finished off the program and
everyone enjoyed cake and ice
cream served by the Ethel W.I.
ladies.
Mrs. Percy Stephenson of Ham
ilton a former Ethel W.I. member
(1929) travelled to Ethel to join in
the celebration. Accompanying
her was Blanche Dobson of
Lis towe1 (1930). It was really nice to
see these ladieswhowere mem
bers way back when.
