Also in London and Sarnia Tea pot emerges from potter's hands Ailso CraIg Icdles see pottery A warm welcome awaited the members of the Riverview Women's Institute as they met for their first meeting of the new year on February 3, in the Masonic Hall. The president, - Evelyn McNaughton, began with a quote: "Another year, another chance to have a change of heart. Throw off the yoke of yesteryear, and make a brand new start!" The meeting opened in the usual W.I. way, with Jean Lee at the piano. The president gave some more Household hints from the collection of Greta George, and also added something to think about, "A turtle makes progress, only when it sticks its neck out". During the business arising from the minutes' segment of the meeting, a motion was passed to give a dona- tion to the Activity Centre Committee for the new podium which was made there. The executive were thanked for their entry into the local Santa Claus parade. Letters and photographs were handed in to secretary, Margaret Wilson, who is compilg a scrapbook for a W.I. in England, with whom we have been corresponding. Also in the same vein, Evelyn read two letters which she had received from two dif- ferent Institutes in Prince Edward Island, as Ontario is twinning with them this year. Lorraine Neil and Mary Rees volunteered to answer them, as the president had already corresponded with another one, and had received their last two issures of the P.E.I. Home and Country magazines, as well as interesting tourist information. A dessert euchre is being held in the Hall at 1:15 p.m. on April 1, and the first three committees are in charge of this spring event. Two delegates, president and secretary were ap- pointed to•go to the 90th Convention in North Bay•from July 6 - 9. From the correspondence, it was noted that the Farm Show runs from March 3 - 7, and a Community Seniors have love thoughts Good food and thoughts of love and Valentine were in abundance at the February Exeter Senior Citizens n eeting in the Legionhall. The noon hour pot luck smorgasbord table was !c:aded. All diets were put on hold for ;he day. Guest speaker, Rev. and Mrs. Richard Hawley, in keeping with the Valentine theme gave a dialogue on -Love" as it may be experienced through each stage of life. They were i! troduced by Leila Finkbeiner. President Pat Skinner read a Valentine message. Many thank you notes were read, congratulations were extended to wedding anniver- sary couples and to those having had birthdays in the past month. Cora Wein had just celebrated hers the day before the meeting. Gwen Whybrow reported on the meeting of the Villa Auxiliary and Alva Heywood who was in charge of the program gave an update on the bus trips but reported that they are open for suggestions. as no definite plans have been made. A favourite reading, Grandma's Hands, was was shared by Dorothy Bullock and a timely poem, Why Worry, was read by Vi Andrews. Entertaining at Iluronview March 13, a spring rally and future walk to the moon are coming up. Pat Skinner will be telling us mdre next meeting. Fully Processed the outreach seminar is to be held at Southwold Public School February 28. It was decided to put an entry in to the Western Fair this year, and Lorna Priestley will co-ordinate the items. The programme was under the name of "Education and Cultural Ac- tivities" with Ruth McCallum as con- vener, who opened with a scripture reading, and then called on Margaret Wilson for a reading entitled, "Friendship is a treasure ship anyone can launch" which was much en- joyed. Annie Eagleson favoured us with two medleys of piano music, one in honour of our beloved Scotsman's birthday just past, and the other more romantic for Valentine's. The main topic was, "The Potter and the Clay", ably presented by Mrs. Marilyn Barbe who demonstrated the making of a teapot from beginning to end, with the aid of slides, and ex- amples. This was a real learning ex- perience for most of us, as Marilyn depicted this art so enthusiastically. An excellent, though difficult, contest on local History was given by Ruth Ross, and won by Jean Lee. You real- ly learn things at Institute! Ruth McCallum gave the courtesies, for this section of the programme. 'l'he roll call was hilarious as each person handed in the home-made Valentine they brought to be judged, and also showed, or told of one they had received, even as far back as 50 years ago; the sentiments still remain the same, however. Judges, Annie Eagleson and Marilyn Barbe, pro - Pentecostal ladies meet The January meeting of the Women's Ministries of the Pentecostal Church was held at the Mune of Mrs. Jean Jolly with 11 members present. The meeting was opened by Mrs. Jean Triebner by singing the hymns "Looking for the Blessed Hope" and "The Solid Rock." Mrs. Hilda Eizenga offered prayer. The roll call was answered by each member with a verse of scripture con- taining the word "hope". The minutes of the last meeting were read by Mrs. Jean Jolly. The financial report was given by Miss Marion Triebner. A number of letters were read and arrangements were made to send the tithes on our finances for the year to head office. The monthly bulletin was read by Airs. Ruth McLaren. Mrs. Jean Triebner read as a special number poems "The Golden Chain of Friendship" and also a short poem entitled "Too Little". The mis- sionary reading was given by Mrs. Jean Jolly on "Liberia in Africa". Miss Marion Triebner read an ar- ticle written by Mrs. Ronald Clark en- titled "Marigolds", the message was that no matter how many struggles we have we can carry on by God's help. Prayer time followed with each member participating. A delicious luncheon was served by Mrs. Jean Jolly and Miss Marion Triebner and was enjoyed by all. nounced the winners who were: Ruth Ross, Jean Lee, and Lorraine Neil. The rest of us were given encourage- ment by being named "Runners-up". Lorna Priestley, District Director, reported on the North Middlesex District executive meeting held at the Ailsa Craig United Church on February 2, with president, Gertrude Rosser, presiding. In this regard, Gertrude thanked the Riverview president for her support, and the ladies who provided the lunch, and served the guests. Of course, a W.I. meeting has food and fellowship to go with fun and in- formation. At this meeting we cer- tainly weren't disappointed on any of these four itmes. Jean McKichan had the tables decorated with roses, and even a Valentine at each plate. How's that for hospitality? After the meeting, we lingered over sand- wiches a -plenty, with relishes and a hot cup of tea. The red and white jel- ly beans, and little cinnamon hearts added a tasty finish -with few(?) calories! Before leaving, all took note 01 Margaret's dates for the Activity ('en- tre for the month. Visitors arealways welcome at our meetings. The next is on March 3.

The new system will allow Perry Originals the freedom to expand their business in a manner which will continue to guarantee the quality and workmanship accredited their clothing. - Future developments at Perry Originals are expected and desired.
