After the opening ode, Mary Stewart called the roll' with 16 members and three guests answering with a memory of farming as a child. Most of the memories were of hard work and all had their humorous side. The minutes and financial report were given by secretary -treasurer Muriel Mof- fat. Correspondence included an invitation to attend the 80th anniversary of the Wingham Institute on September 24. The next 411 project is "Ontario Fruit and Vegetables" for which Lila Rint ul and Luba Strutton consented to be leade . The group display for the Fall Fair is ` ld Hats' so anyone with a suitable hat should contact Luba Strutton. Those in attendance at the meeting were in favor of donating a Butler Project Kit to the Brookside School. The kit includes pic- tures of farm animals designed to help give a better understanding of agriculture in the school. The siding on the outside of the hall has now been completed on all four sides and looks much better. The Huron County Quilt, for which Beatrice McQuillen had designed a block depicting the St. Helen's School, has been completed and is presently on display in the Livery in Goderich. On August 26 the annual bus trip will travel to Sarnia for a boat cruise on the St. Clair River. The minutes of yesteryear for 1968 were prepared and presented by Caroline Snowden. On the topic `Canadian Agriculture', Helen Todd introduced the guest speaker Angela Nethery who is the current Dairy Princess for Huron County. Angela told of her 45 different outings as Princess such as appearances at Fall Fairs and speaking at various functions. She said the future of dairy farming could see such things as milking by robots and heating the farm home with heat generated in the barn by the animals. She also reminded us that bone disease caused by a lack of calcium can be prevented by drinking milk at all ages. Angela was thanked by Luba Strutton and presented with a gift. The remainder of the program consisted of a sing -a -long conducted by Norma Raynard, a reading by Isabel Gaunt entitl- ed 'Kitchen Graffiti' and a poem `Myself and I' read by Norma Raynard. The meeting closed with O'Canada and everyone enjoyed a delicious lunch served by hostesses Norma Raynard and Isabel Gaunt.
