The program was in charge
of Mrs. W. Zinn, Tweedsmuir
Historian and curator. A very
interesting debate, "The advan-

of today has over her mother,`

mative and "gave many of the
advantages., Some of them
were, bus service from home to

one of the many sources of

homes they have .the advan-
tages of all the new equipment
and furnishings as well as bet-
ter fabrics to wear and care for.
Mrs. Harry Girvin, District
Director, took the negative and
gave many of the disadvan-
tages. Some of them were: the
generation gap, mothers and
daughters were closer when
they had more time together
and did more together; there
was more appreciation of
things that were worked for;
there was not the temptations
of drugs, etc.; there was more
.family fellowship and more
neighborliness; there was not
the tensions of today.
Mrs. Girvin felt there was of-
ten more personal attention
given to pupils in the little one
roomed schools.
'Following the debate, after a
general discussion, Mrs. Zinn
spoke for ' everyone present,
when she said she felt we were
all glad to have been born into
the era we were.
Mrs. Zinn discussed the up-
dating of, the Tweedsmuir
History Books. They were put
on display along' with the scrap
books and the book of quilt
blocks.
. ,Mrs. Rutledge thanked Mrs.
Ivers for her home and closed
the meeting.
Mrs. H. Alton, Mrs. R. Rob
`son and Mrs. I. Rivett were
hostesses and served a tasty
lunch.
