Following the closing of business, the in- stallation of the new officers - was discussed. We hope to have this 'done on January the ninth. As this was our last meet- ing of the year, each girl brought a gift and these were exchanged with others. An obsolutely delicious pot - luck supper followed, con- sisting of barbecued chicken 8 wings, lasagne, chilli, meat pie and 'many other delec- table foods. President Sr. Anne Lee thanked our hos- tess and her assistants for a perfectly wonderful evening. .
