MRS. LUELLA McGOWAN HEADS BLYTH WOMEN'S INSTITUTE The roll call used by Blyth Women's Institute at their May meeting, held in Memorial Hall, April 6, was, "Why ,I am a member of the Women's Insti- tute.' The concensus of opinion expressed in the responses were: "Because of the friendly informal get - together each month" and "the community spirit which is evident." A min- ute of silence was observed in memory of the late Mrs. Har- old Phillips, who was a former president of Blyth branch. Three choices were made for a short course at the district level: first, "143 Pounds .of Meat"; ' second, "Home Nurs- ing"; third, "Window Drapery." The final selection will be made at the district annual meeting, to be meld in Wesley -Willis United Church, Clinton, May 11. It was decided to donate $30 to the Px'ovincial Bursary, hon- oring the 65th year of Women's Institutes in Ontario. The' re- ports of standing committees were given by the conveners. Miss Josephine Woodcock, district president, was guest speaker, and chose for her theme, "The Mary Stewart Cole lect." In part, Miss Woodcock stated: 'one author of this col- lect was a member of a local club and being disturbed to hear much criticism and fault- finding afnbng the members, was inspieed to,. write what is now used as a prayer on thou- sands of women's programs, and is so worded it couldn't give offense to any religious group or -sect." The concluding• Sentence sums up the total: And 0 Lord God, let us not forget to be kind. As this was the close of the fiscal year, the treasurer's re- port showed a good year, much community, work done and a gratifying bank balance.
