new crafts in action or old crafts moderniz-

courses lead by Women's Institute
members. Many rural women have now
turned the skills learned in these courses in-

Pine River UCS visits
Saugeen Indian Reserve_
On Tuesday September 9, the ladies of
the UCW of the Pine River United Church
gathered at the church. There were 26 of
them.
They then went by car up to Port Elgin
where they had a smorgasbord lunch at
the Lake Shore Racket Club.
When lunch was over it was on to
Southampton to the Saugeen Indian
Reserve.. a b aeawere
met
byRe.BrMcMath,the
minister
of the church.
The president Mrs. Delbert Wilson was
. present. The short meeting was opened by
the singing of a hymn.
The convenors, Phylis Elliott and
Thelma Godfrey, then took over. The Bible
reading was done by Phylis Elliott and a
prayer also by Phylis and Thelma Godfrey
gave a reading.
The minutes of the last meeting (in
June) were read by Ann Boyd.
Mrs. Wilson closed the meeting with
prayer. The ladies then entered the church
where Reverend McMath showed slides'
and told of many things which take place
on the reservation.
It was disappointing, that there was not
any of the Indian women in attendance.
The slides were informative and it was
encouraging to hear of the many things
that are planned for the reserve. It is also
gratifying to know the Indians, if given a
chance, can make things work.
