CLASSES The crewel embroidery class held its third meeting in the Auburn Community Memorial Hall last week with Mrs. Rick Hawley and Mrs. Lawrence Plaetzer as the leaders. This ancient art of expressing one's self with needle • and yarn dates back Ito the fifth century A.D. when Europeans used it as a form of needle painting to depict historical scenes or -for religious vestments.

Some of the designs coming over from India in the Tudor era have ,been moving away from the solid filled-in designs of the past. The new style of stitches using wool yarns has developed a new freedom of expression and many new designs have been added to the older form. Those taking the crewel course were Mrs. Donald Haines, Mrs. Gordon Chamney, Mrs. Emerson Rodger, Mrs. Hugh Bennett, Mrs. Donald Cartwright, Mrs. Frank~ Raithby, Mrs. Dorothy Grange, Mrs. Leonard Archambault, Mrs. Gerald.
