time et 5130 on Thursday, February 28.
We say this with n°Iixed ernotigns. We look for-
ward to our retirement with pleasant thoughts.

cerely miss meeting all those great people, you,

brighter.
As we reflect on the good times and bad, we
wish to thank all our many customers and friends

Mrs. 'Barbara Kerr
opened the discussion
with a round ' of in-
troductions. The mothers
shared experiences bf
breastfeeding, relating
how they had solved
problems they had en-
countered in the early
days of nursing, such as
engorgement, and
building,up a milk supply.
It was noted that with
experience and
knowledge, difficulties
were either minimized or
non-existent.
The mothers enjoyed
giving "`hints on how to"
dress fashionably and
nurse discreetly while
going out with a nursing
baby.
Mrs. Kerr closed the
meeting with a quotation
by Dr. Grantly Dick -
Read - "The .newborn
baby has only three
demands. They, are
warmth in the arms of its
--mother-,-..-food--franc--her._
breasts, and security in
the knowledge of her
presence. Breastfeeding
satisfies all three."
