,of WI meeting
g
LAKELET—Thirteen mem-
bers and three visitors of the
Women's Institute met for the
January meeting at the home of
Mrs. Gordon Wright on Thursday
afternoon. The roll call, "Bring a
sample of your hobby and tell
about it or pay a 10, cent fine",
didn't diuc"h for the treasury
but did have some very inter-
esting answers.
• The secretary reported that
there are only a few cook books
left. Anyone who wants one
should contact a member of the
executive soon. The February
. meeting will be held at the home
of Mrs. Harold Wallace.
The ' motto, "He who owns a
hobby owhs a mental island of re-
fuge" Was ably given by Mrs.
Murray. A hobby is something
one enjoys doing. When one must
• earn a living doing it, it ceases to
be' a hobby.
Mrs. Ralph Dickson spoke
• about her hobby, oil painting. She
explained about preparing the
canvas,, colors and placing sub-
jects on the canvas. She had on
• ,display several paintings she has
done.
Mrs. Wallace, on behalf of the
ladies, thanked Mrs. Dickson and
presented her with a gift. •
`The meeting adjourned and
lunch wan served by the com-
mittee.
w
h S- Snick..
there on nday morning con-
ducted by Rev. Barry Passmore:
Mr. and Mrs. Clare Hodgkinson,
Mrs. Mel McVittie, 'Miss Jean
McVittie and Mrs. Lorna Krug
were welcomed by Mr. Pass
more, on behalf of the congrega-
tion.,
During the morning worship
service, the sacrament of Holy
Communion was observed. Mr.
Passmore's sermon, entitled "No
Reason to Boast", was based on
Paul's letter to the Ephesians,
„wherein the apostle stresses that
the. grace of God is a gift, not a
reward for living a good life.
The senior choir sang, "Jesu
Joy of Man's Desiring" with or-
ganist H. Swatridge providing the
accompaniment.
