Meeting was opened with ¢ the 4-H Pledge. Shirley Short read the minutes of the previous meeting. Since we found Greenbank's name to be the same as ours we decided to change it to "The Seagrave Printesses'. Shirley dem- ® onstrated the proper way to cut out a potato print and also how to apply it to the paper. In our members pamphlet we read pages 14 & 16 which told us the different mat- erials on which to print such ® as paper, felt, wood etc and also the different methods of printing a design. After completing the above we began working with our potatotes, peppers and onions displaying our talents ¢ at this art. Creating several ¢ prints we exchanged them with one another.

C.A. had first come over to Canada in 1910, tried farming - - out west, then came to Ontario. At war's outbreak he signed up and was off to the trenches. He picked up some shrapnel in his leg but didn't want to idle around England long enough to sign papers for a pension. Today, both men appear to enjoy life hugely . . and each other. The Port Perry Glass family have provided a warm welcome for the visiting Viviane, including a trip to a brewery where, in the in- terest of international rela- tions, Viviane compared the Canadian brew to the British variety.
