It was decided to hold their'an- nual Garden Party on June 23rd in Victoria Park: The society have been fortunate in procuring the play "Wil- lowdale" which is to be staged by the young people of Drayton. This has been given a number of times, and is well worth seeing. As Mrs. Herzog, a valued member of the society, is leaving the com- munity, . she was presented with a chesterfield table. A suitable address was read by the President, Mrs. W. King, wink the secretary, Mrs. F. C. Taylor, presented same. Rev, R. S. Jones then closed the meeting with the prayers and a social time was spent white the hostess, assisted by Miss Margaret Foster, served a very dainty lunch. The' address was as follows: Dear Mrs, Herzog: We, the members of St. Stephen's Women's Auxiliary, welcome you very heartily to this meeting, since in all probability it will be the last one which you will spend wish us, a member of St. Stephen's congrega- ion.

LIBRARY BOARD ANNOUNCE MEETING The Wroxeter Library Board is calling r a nimportant >W; p ,tent tattling in the town Hall at 8 pen. Friday, June 9, to decide whether or not the Lib- rary is to be kept open or closed for good. For the last two years it has had about $170.00 per annuin to spend. This sunt was got together chiefly through the generosity of the Women's Institute, the young people of the village who got tip entertain - Meets to raise money, for the pur- pose, and from small grants from the township an d province. That was barely enough to pay the Librarian's r solar}, and other expenses of keep- ing the library open. Very few new books have been purchased and as a result interest in the library has de - dined. This year even this small stria' will not be available. .Citizens who. cheerfully pay heavy school tares, ap- pear to forget that the library in its way, is just as important to educa- tion. The 'Wroxeter public library opened in 1872 in time was s as difficult as these by the pioneers of the dis- triet'and if allowed to die now, it will be a tail treflectiotz on the Intel•
