Clinton Junior WI
Holds Active
Meeting
Clinton Junior Institute hed
its regular meeting in the CDCI
on Tuesday, January 10, with the
theme, "Footwear,"
The meeting opened with the
Institute Ode, followed by the
Lord's Prayer. "What size of
shoes do you wear" Was the roll
call. Doreen McGuire read Cur-
rent Events, following the busi-
ness discussion. Mary Hudie gave
an interesting talk on "How to
buy shoes for correct fit and
foot health." It is claimed that
vanity is the ruin of many a
foot and many a shoe. Women
try to cram their feet into shoes
a size or so too small because
they believe it will make their
feet look like those of Cinderella.
The choice of the correct shoe,
just as the correct -costume, can
make you look taller or shorter,
slenderize your appearance and
add grace and drama to your
person. i
"The Story behind your new
shoes" was given by Marianne
Colelough, and it was very inter-
esting to hear how the styles in
shoes changed down through the'`
ages, also what kinds of leather j
were used and just how shoes
are made. Pamphlets on haw
to buy. correct shoes were given
to the members at the close of
the meeting. S

Clinton branch of the Bible
Society can possibly lay claim to
being the oldest Society of any
kind in the Town of Clinton.
In any case, the Society makes
claim to that honour with the
information ,that appears on the
first page of"its minute "book still
in use, The item reads as fol-
lows: "Minutes of the 21st. annual
meeting of the Clinton Branch of
the Upper Canada Bible Society
held on- the evening of the 31st
of October, 1877, with N. S.
Fisheracting as secretary."
It is ei tribute to the zeal and
fidelity of our churches and their
leaders that almost 100 years have
passed in which they have given
continuous loyalty in the distri-
bution of the "Book df Books"
throughout the world.
It was .in connection with the
Week of Prayer that the Society
held its 1950 annual meeting
Wednesday evening, Januali
irn Clinton Presbyterian Church.
