Whitechurch -`George Brophy of
Lucknow was the guest speaker
when the Women's Institute held its
September meeting in the hall on
the 20th. President Marjorie Wall
opened the meeting with a, poem,
"Watch the Sky", the Ode, Mary
Stewart Collect and the Lord's
Prayer.
Mr. Brophy was introduced by
Mrs. Evelyn Gibb and spoke about
legal matters pertaining to sufferers
of Alzheimer's Disease. He stressed
the importance of arranging busi-
ness matters, acquiring a joint bank
account, making a will and think-
ing in terms of power of attorney or
a public trustee before the disease is
too far advanced. A good brochure
called "Legal and Financial Con-
cerns of Alzheimer's" is available
from Margaret deBoer, public
health nurse. Mr. Brophy also dis-
tributed power-of-attorney forms to
examine. He was thanked by Jean
McGuire and presented with a gift.
A sing -along was enjoyed, with
Mrs. Jean Tiffin at the piano. The
motto, "Give your opinion of
French immersion", was given by
Mrs. Gibb. There is a great deal of
controversy about it but the WI felt
it must be each parent's decision.
The .WI convention will be held
Oct. 10 at Thornbury, the rally Oct.
19 in Paisley. A dessert euchre party
is planned for Oct. 23, with Mary
Hehn, Jean Tiffin, Cathy Lubbers
and Marjorie Wall as committee in
charge. Members of Whitechurch
WI will present a program at
Pinecrest Manor in November.
Grace was sung and the commit-
tee of Brenda Day, Merle Wilson
and Marjorie Wall served lunch.
The next meeting will begin at the
Wingham Museum and then con-
tinue at Marjorie Wall's home for
the business meeting.
