and it was most time ly for now so many are taking crafts up as a hobby The speaker had samples of the earliest crafts of our Cana dian people and it was a matter of interest to see the gradual improvement represented Per haps the greatest advance is in weaving through the evolution the finer type of loom and the improving of materials The looms of the first settlers must have been huge considering the wonderful woven spreads which some of our members brought for display some in two colors with the pattern color reversed on the opposite side Cotton not being available to early weavers settlers and loyalists principally used wool and flax We were shown a sample of the material so produced which was snowy white and of a texture resemb ling coarse linen I remember my father telling me that in his home where there were children of which he was the youngest that they were en tirely selfsufficient All heir clothes girls and boys were made at home and one girls work was to do all the weaving Another cut out the garments and third made them up Their wheat gave them flour heir huge maple sugar grove provided nil the sugar they needed they had beef and pork game from the
