Women’s Work
study of UCW
The Afternoon Unit of the
U.C.W. was held October 7 with an
attendance of 11 and Mrs. Mary
Hunter in charge. She opened the
meeting with the hymn “We have
come into his house.”
Mrs. Helen Martin was in charge
of the worship period, the theme
being “Thanksgiving and Afflu
ence”. Mrs. Ada Taylor read Psalm
103: 1-18 and Mrs. Jean Pattison
read Luke 12: 13-21 followed with
the hymn “Come Ye Thankful Peo
ple Come”. In meditation it was
said material goods are a Gift of
God to be accepted. Man does not
live by bread alone, yet we are told
to give thanks for “daily bread”.
Material possessions were never
intended to be the primary objec
tive in life. Our Thanksgiving cele
brations, whatever they be, are a
reminder that the richness of life
consists of appreciating what we
have been given rather than in what
we gather. All we possess has been
given in trust and is to be shared.
The hymn “We Gather Together”
and prayer was said.
For Bible Study, Mrs. Janisa
Coultes read Matt. 6: 19-21. Do not
store up riches for yourselves here
on earth where moths and rust
destroy and robbers break in and

steal instead store up riches for
yourselves in Heaven where moths
and rust cannot destroy and robbers
cannot break in and steal. How dif
ficult it is to keep one's eyes on this
goal in this very materialistic
world.
Mrs. Margaret Taylor had the
study “Women's Work” from the
special edition of the Mandate. She
began by reading a poem “Remem
ber Her” citing the many things a
woman does in a day. A man will
toil from sun to sun but a woman's
work is never done. This old saying
is so familiar we don't think twice
about it. It describes much of the
oppression women experience.
Domestic tasks require skill and
experience to complete efficiently
yet they don't count if she decides
to go back to the paid labour force.
Women find they are restricted in
their employment choices and in
the pay they can earn. When both
parents are working full-time and a
crisis arises it is the mother who is
usually called and she has to tend
the child's needs and the wages lost
by her absence will have less
impact on the family's income.
The singing of the hymn “God
Be With You” concluded the meet
ing.
in Belgrave. The members said the
4H Pledge and answered the roll
call naming a Canadian-made
cheese. Then members went into
the kitchen and made an old-fash
ioned pudding. They also made
cheese cakes with strawberry sauce
on it. They then finished the meet
ing with the 4H motto.
