GRAND BEND - President Cass Lovie
related to the members of Grand Bend
Women's Institute several amusing,
thought-provoking sayings
as she opened the
September meeting held
at Sauble Court: You fell
down the first time you
walked. Did you hit the ball
the first time you swung the bat? R.H.
Macy failed seven times before his
store in New York caught on.
Plans were completed for the London
area convention Tues., Oct. 5 in
Holmesville. Table favours will be bags
of mixed beans that can be used for
soup. The table decorations will be
stuffed cloth pumpkins accented with
fall leaves.
