Heard Over Radio
Villagers who were tuned in to
radio station CFRE on Monday
heard a familiar voice when Bob
Keston interviewed Mrs. Oliver
W. Rhynas, Toronto; in his lunch
hour program introducing people
"you'd like to meet."
In answer to his queries,. Mrs.
Rhynas gave e brief but compre-
hensive report of the great work
achieved by the Women's Hospi-
tal Aids' Association sinch its
inauguration in 1910. It is now
composed of 68 individual aids.
In speaking ot the work and aims
of the Association, Mrs. Rhynas
cited Chesley as an example of
what could be done by a small
group. A member for 30 years,
she has always held office. For
17 yeras she was president and
is now Public Relations Admin-
istrator.
Formerly Miss Margaret Maude
Ferguson, daughter of the late
Mr. and Mrs. John Ferguson, Mrs.
Rhynas is a native of Hayfield,
who richly deserves the honors
which have been accorded her in
recent years by both Canadian
and American Hospital Aids As-
sociations for her great work in'
this connection.
