Strawberries, oranges and bananas were a few mentioned. Then the members were blindfolded and a dish of fruit was set out in front of them. The members had to guess what fruit By Jean Plaetzer PRO The Auburn Women's Institute held its meeting on June 15 in the Auburn Community Hall at 1:30 p.m. In the absence of the president, Tena Empey welcomed members Ind many guests. Minutes were read by Marg Fraser. Mrs. Empey gave a reading, Just For a Laugh. The treasurer's report was given by Teresa Roetcisoender. Members they were eating. Most members guessed the pear, grape, strawberry, banana and orange but only a few guessed that there was a mango. June placed a herb on each table and members had to guess what the herb was. Even with their eyes, the members had a hard time figuring them out. Junior leader, Sophie Jefferson, led a game where members had to guess what Ontario grown fruit she was talking about. The members did an activity where they had to match up fruit and guests answered the roll call, What career did you dream of as a child? Mrs. Empey thanked all who had helped at the WI Huron West annual meeting held in Auburn last month. Purchasing cups and saucers was discussed. The WI will be catering to three dinners. Heather and Patricia Robinson and Nancy Park favoured members with violin music. growing hints. They discussed harvesting fruits. The members learned the proper time for harvesting fruit, not to damage the fruit when picking and to store them in a place where they are free from insects, disease and injury.

The club also discussed ways to decorate using fruit, such as Indian corn, pumpkins and bowls of fruit. The group was split into two June Robinson, convenor of education and cultural activities, introduced her granddaughter Patricia who spoke on her time in Chad and Mexico as a teacher.

She promises to bring her photos over for a show-and-tell session. teams: names that start with M and . names that don't. Sophie Jefferson asked the teams questions about fruits. The teams were very competitive and even made up their own cheer. It was a tie game. Then, because June's birthday had just passed, the members brought cake and ice cream to celebrate. When June was asked how old she was she replied, "Too old to be leading 4-H." Members are reminded to bring their mystery herb to the next horticulture meeting. In the Mexican school they were very social and wore uniforms and went from 7:45 a.m. - 2 p.m. Lunch was served and prizes won. The next meeting will be Sept. 21 at 1:30 p.m. Family affairs chair Lois Elliott, PRO Jean Plaetzer are in charge. The roll call is an energy-saving tip.
