What Staffa Women's Institute has
accomplished for Red Cross:
On November 26th, Staffa Women's
Institute met in the Township Ha11,
President Miss Margaret Davis pre-
siding. The meeting opened singing
"0 Canada," followed by the Lord's
Prayer. Miss Davis repeated the mot-
to, "It is much easier to be critical
• T 1RQW EXPOSITOR ,•
than to correct." atoll cell was agn-
swered by a good joke or a humorous
saying. Miss Vt3ra Hambly gave a
report of work done by the ladies of
the community from M -ay 1. 1941, to
Oct. 31, 1941: 90 pairs of socks, 1
paid seaman's socks, 2 pairs two-way
mitts, 5 sweaters, 1 child's sweater,
2 pairs child's socks, 11 baby's jack-
ets, 7 baby •bonnets, 12 pairs baby's
bootees, 2 afghans, 6 dresses (chil-
dren's), 32 pairs children's pyjamas,
1 child's nightie, 13 raps. and tams, 5
pairs felt slippers, 16 quilts, 1 child's
stockings. 3 crib quilts, 72 diapers,
17 flannelette slips, 2 bibs, 2 wash-
cloths, 2 boxes pot der, 4 cards .safety
pins, 1 cake soap. Mrs. Lorne Hodge,
secretary, read a letter asking for
donations of garden, seed and blan-
kets ' The ladies agreed to send $5
to the central fund. A committee,
with Mrs. Wm. Houghton, convener,
was 'appointed to cut material ready
for sewing. Mrs. Percy Parsons was
in charge of the program. Current
events were read by Mrs. Thomas
Laing; Mess M. Davis read resolu-
tions presented at the London conven-
tion; Mrs. Lloyd Colquhoun read the
daily poem, "The Homes of England";
Miss M. Davis gave a short talk on
Vitamin Bl, B2 or E and K. Miss

ficiency of Vitamin K was detrimen-

Mrs. Lloyd Colquhoun; Mrs. Percy
vehicle Parsons read the paper, "Glimpses of
Legislation," that was prepared by
Miss Elisabeth Davis. From the very
beginning the war h -ad an effect i:n
Canada internationally; laws were
passed in accordance with the stand
the government of the day took at
that time. The indifference of indi-
viduals in regard to this legislation,
war is going to have an effect on each
one of us in our daily lives. War ef-
fort has been voluntary; projects car-
ried on without compulsion. Miss
Davis emphasized the fact we have
reached the point where we will find
ourselves restricted in our way of lite,
restricting gasoline, also bacon and
cheese. If things are required "over
there," we should deny ourselves and
make a substitution or just do with-
out. People earning good wages
should practise economy. The demand
for higher wages ,was compared to a
petulant bad boy; they throw a fit
and call a -strike: results, the needs
of war are not produced and it looks
as if we must give'them more money.
The Government. has decided- to put
