I'm very worry we have

But with only eight active
members left in the group.,
she said they •didn't have
much. choice. "There'sjust'
.no interest anymore.* She
. also added that with many
involved in such,groups.
The first meeting of the
Wi. was Meld on' Jan. 27,
1928.. Agnes went• to that
meeting .with her mother:
She was only eight-years-

ight years-'oldat the'titne and became
a full-time member curly
IQ years later at 18.

Lee and his: wife arranged
the first meeting in Stony
Creek. About 1Q0 women
•from thearea attended.and
were persuaded to fonn an
organization of their own
-to.improve their skills in
the art of homemaking and
childcare. The WI. has.
since Moine a worldwide
organization.
The motto for the WI
was :".For Dottie and
Country", said Agnes, She
added that.this was a geed
motto for the group that
not only taught skills for
the home but also partici-
pated'in community work.
"This. Was Very important."
The different Communities
had their UCWS and other
church groups, she said,
"the ladies needed some-
thing else—that was .the
dwrch, the WI is the com-
manicy;'"
Throughout .the years,.
the Whitechurch WI spon-
sored the local 4H dile* .

Society, and packed boxes
of foodand supplies for

those over .80. During the
war years, they knit socks'
to send overseas and aiso
participated in other nec-
essary duties to help in the
war effort.'
"We had realty nice
meetings 'said Agnes.
"It's too bad it has.ended:"
