Speaking on "Handicrafts of Canada" at the annual convention of the Central Ontario Women‘s Institutes in Toronto, J. Banigan told of the creation of handicraft, both from the stimulating part it played in the pushâ€"button life of our modern civilization and as a means of livelihood, pointing out that since Europe‘s markets are closed, Canadians could pick up the task of providing handicraft with benefit to themselves. Future For Handicrafts The speaker also dwelt on the historical significance of the handiâ€" craft of Canada. "To enrich life, see and possess the . commmon thing," said Mr. Banigan, "and to appreciate it is to have true posâ€" session. Most useful things in time became beautiful," he added. He thrilled the country woman when he said: "The matétials to work with are right at your hands, and we have a background of fine handicraft in Canada." He had work from all over Canada on exâ€" hibit and paid tribute to the late Sir Wilfred Grenfell and what his interest in handicraft had meant to Labrador folk.
