The pot -luck supper
and June meeting of the
Maple • Leaf Chapter
IODE was held. at the
home of Mrs. R.
Breckenridge.
Following the meat, the
meetings was called with
Regent, Mrs. H. Murphy
presiding.
Members were pleased
to assist the Girl Guides,
who are planning to visit
Mexico, with the pur-
chase of linens. The
Guides take new bedding
with them to' use during
their stay. It is .left for
distribution where
needed afterwards (such
as in orphanages).
During their trip, they
will also visit rural areas
where they will be
teaching crafts and
games to the younger,
Children. All the craft
materials• for this part of
their Venture is pur-
chased by the Guides.
The Chapter was also
pleased to assist the Teen
Tones in the purchase of
sheet music as well as
make a contribution to
the MacKay Centre for
Seniors.
The minutes of the June
4, 1919 meeting were
read. In addition to a $20
contribution to the Red
Cross, the "Ambulance
Cover Committee" ap-
proved the purchase of
canvas at 45 cents a yard
from Miller's , Store.
Under discussion was the
setting -up of a booth to -
sell ice-cream • and soft
drinks during Chatauqua.
At that time ice cream
cost $1.40 gallon, cones 60
cents per hundred and
carbonated beverages
$1.20 per three dozen. The
date of Chatauqua that
year was July 18-24.
It was also decided to
hold a dance at the Sunset
.Hotel. Admission was set
at. $1 per person - in-
cLudingT.m.em be r s
The Sunset Hotel was,
at one time, a
magnificent summer
resort which stood from
1901 - 1973 on what are
now the vacant lots at the
end•of Britannia Road W
and Essex St.
Many of the members
expressed curiosity about
"Chatauqua," this event
being unfamiliar to them.
Fortunately, Mrs. R.W.
Hughes, who for two
years acted as an
Advance Agent for the
Touring Company, was
on hand to explain. In
addition to•live theatre, a
variety of .performances
were provided including
lecture series and
children's programs.
While they' endured, the
Companies . provided
many communities and,
in particular, those on the
prairies the only cultural
expression known. In the
early years, the Com-
panies travelled with
enormous tents. Some
remembered when
Chatauqua was held in a
huge tent set up in Vic-
toria Park (Judith
Go.oderharn' ,Park).
Later, as community
halls became plentiful,
the '• tents were aban-
doned.
To ensure the viability
of the Company, a Town
Committee had to be set
up everywhere they
played, tooversee
financing. If, by chance,
all expenses were not
recovered, • the Corn-
mittee was responsible
for the deficit. As they
were very popular in
every community, this
was never a problem
until around 1934 when
the Company faced
severe competition' from
"talking pictures."
In the end, the Com- a
pany could no longer hold
its own against this
popular entertainment
medium, though while it
endured Chatauqua
performed a valuable
service for the social and
cultural life of many
Canadian communities.
A special thank you to
Mrs. Hughes for her
recollections.
'Four members ex-'
pissed— an interes-t —i-n—
attending an IODE
Workshop -Conference in
Peterborough this fall.
The Chapter will meet
again the first Tuesday of
Septem her.
May everyone have a
safe arYd happy summer.
