joyed by all. Minnie Noakes spoke
briefly and welcomed the girls, one of
whorl came from Toronto. She was

The cake was baked by Minnie

with a gift on behalf of the "Douglas
Girls" in honour of Marion's
retirement.
At four o'clock Rev. Stan McDonald
joined the crowd. Everyone present
enjoyed a sumptuous pot luck supper.
Many of the girls expressed the opi-
nion "That Minnie bakes the best
home -baked beans they have ever
eaten". Why not, they were from
Hensall!
Following supper Rev. McDonald
and Minnie Noakes sang a duet "God
Be With You 'Till We Meet Again'.
This was one of Miss Douglas'
favourite hymns and seemed ap-
propriate for the occasion. Mrs.
Mickle accompanied them at the
piano.
Minnie then thanked the girls for
coming and expressed her regrets
that this was the final reunion, but
asked all to keep in touch in the corn-
ing years. Several girls decided it
would be a good idea to meet each
year and go out together for dinner.
Miss Irene Douglas was a very ac-
tive member of the United Church all
her life. She helped so many people
and was an inspiration to all. It seems
only fitting that following her death
in November, 1984, we discontinue the
reunions. We know she would have
approved.
