The meeting opened with President John Jeffries welcoming guests as well as new members. He then introduced Edna Love who, after a short talk on the do's and don't's of pine cone craft, held a workshop for those interested (and there were many) and her en- couragement and enthus- iasm proved to be contagious indeed. Mrs. Love gave individual instruction where necessary and presented some of her own finished articles in the form of wreaths, trees and sprays which motivated even the amateurs to demonstrate their talents. John Jeffries thanked Mrs. Love and reminded those present of the Bulb Forcing Workshop to be conducted by Gordon Wick on Monday, October 30.
