Mrs. Richard Buchanan, president, called _ the members to order and welcomed all. After the singing of the Opening Ode and the Grace, members enjoyed the delicious lun- cheon. After the meal, the meeting commenced with the president welcoming visitors and making special mention of a few of the members who haven't been present for a few meetings. The roll call, "A Childhood Christmas Meniory" was answered by the 20 people present who recalled many happy and quite humorous occasions in their younger years. In the absence of the secretary, Mrs. Dorothy Feagan, assistant secretary gave the minutes of the last meeting. Correspondence was also attended to and included a letter from Canadian Crossroads International; a letter from the Canadian Paraplegic Association regarding Ontario families helping disabled persons; a letter from the Cancer Society; and a letter from the Huron Day Centre for the Homebound. A motion was passed to send a donation to the latter. Instead of a Christmas gift draw this .year, members decided to sell tickets on an article and give the proceeds to a worthy cause. Mrs. Dorothy Feagan donated a lovely dried flower and candle arrangment and tickets were sold on this. Mrs. Eric Reaburn also donated a prize for the draw. Mrs. George McBride gave a worthwhile donation of a jar full of pennies and members dcided to give the amount realized from these two donations to the Salvation Army Christmas fund.
