After relinquishing the position fox three terms, she returned for another eight years. Never during her reign has the society failed to meet its financial allocation, She attributes this to the "wonderful co-operation re- ceived," 'if you have a number of ladies working together, you don't have too much trouble ac- cornplishing anything you wish," says Mrs. Cross. Mrs. Cross feels the outstanding feature of her presidency is the fact that "a group of women could get along without any quarreling for 16 years." In recent years Mrs. Cross has led the group despite an arthritic handicap which preventsher from walking, WMS members and her husband help her get to church in her wheel chair. Although no longer president, Mrs. Gross will remain active in the society. She was elected treas- urer in the 1955 slate of officers. Quick Canadian Quiz Y ♦ O 1.
