Teskey and Mrs. 12 - PORT PERRY STAR -- THURSDAY, MAY 1th, 1967 SCUGOG NEWS On Wed. evening of May the "Head" U.C.W. met at ho home of Mrs. Ruth Heayn with 21 people present. There was a large collection of plants & roots at modest prices. The pre- meeting sale added more than $6 to the treasury, and many happy flower enthusiasts with fresh hope for success in their gardening. The president opened the meeting with a thought for our day and a special excerpt from a Roman poet. "Let ancient times delight other folk, 1 re- joice that I was not born till now." Following the hymn, prayer was offered by the Pres. in a request for desire and strength to follow God's will in example and deed. Mrs. Betty Reader read the Scripture, 1 Corinthians 15: 35-38 and Mrs. Carol Boneschansker conducted the study on "Penecost". The roll call was taken from distributed clippings from the early Canadian history and Rev. Teskey read a few paragraphs pertaining to the struggle in which Sir Isaac Brock lost his life. Letters or words of apprecia- tion for donations or remem: brances were received from "Grace" U.C.W. and Mrs. Grace Love, who wished to express special thanks fo her Mystery Sister. : Prior to business, the 'pres. suggested 2 quizzes in which Grace Love excelled. During business, 5 members who attended the meeting at Bowmanville reported some of the messages Dr. Norman of .-Papan had presented to the assembled women. 18 donations were received for the Spring Fair including 6 aprons, some of which were bib style. It was reported that the trea surer had purchased 1000 Cen tennial serviettes. Anyone wishing to purchase some, | sale please contact Bonnie Gerrow. We were the old and modern button de monstration, along with and luncheon for May 17 at the "Head" church. Mem bers please bring your tables and covers and don't forget to bake. Members will wear old costumes, be procured. Rev. Teskey discussed the fish fry for May 24 and des cribed how the fish are hwrk when caught. When the program was turned | over to Mrs. Joyce Heayn, she | called upon Mrs. Irene Carter | for a reading on "The Educa: | tion of Andy". This represent- ed the experiences of a student minister from the city in a Western country church in the early days. Tho' the people may not have had class, they were at least sincere. The poor | young chap apparently didn't find it so amusing as we did. Ruth Heayn next displayed her rugs and equipment used for hooking. From a magazine she™had found an item of 1867 which told how Edward Frost started the idea in New England by using Zinc stencils which were applied to burlap. Ruth described the process of steps she had learned. Her Centen- nial rug is beautiful and an- other large one, uncompleted, contains a few stories from an- cient family garments. It was surprising to learn the number who have never tried hooking. When Ruth finished we were all ready to join the craft guild if we could only find the time. If you wish to see more, go to their showing in August. While a variety buffet lunch was being prepared, Mrs. Joyce Heayn held a guessing contest on an antique article of 1885. From the clues, Mrs. .Sandra Taylor named it as a vaporizer. You too may see it at the An- tique show in June. bake || if they cap |§ On Sunday the "Head" Sun- SL again reminded of |. card | C.G.LT.
