Mrs. Al- fred Wilkins presided. A discussion was held on the fact that no elections had so far been were strongly of the opinion that this should be attended to in the very near future, or else definite plans made to continue in the present state until the end of the fiscal year which is April 31. This will mean that all officers will serve a full year's term as the group was convened on May 1, 1950. The three officers at present are Mrs. Alfred Wilkins, president; Mrs. A. G. Arm- strong, treasurer; and Miss B. Helliwell, secretary. No decision was reached and it was decided to wait until a later meeting to finish the discussion on the matter. Plans were brought forth con- cerning the spring social events during which further funds could be raised to carry on the work of the church. Miss Chapman offered an excellent suggestion that ma- terial should be procured at the January sales in order to commence work on handmade articles which were so well received at the affairs held the previous year. Those pres- ent readily agreed to this and more concrete plans will be put into motion at the next meeting. In the treasurer's report, Mrs. Armstrong pointed out that the group had been very successful .in the previous year and high hopes were held that more members could be pursuaded to join in this endeavour and so swell the ranks of the auxiliary. Mrs. Clarence Keith stated that perhaps a notice could be put up on the bulletin board in order that members of the congregation would have a chance to become further acquainted with the activities of the group and investigate its possi- bilities. This was readily agreed upon and the minister, the Rev. E. H. McLellan, will be presented with a petition in the near future to have this done, 'The meeting was adjourned and an enjoyable supper was served by Mrs, Keith and Mrs. Stuart, after which Miss Margaret Jones enter- tained the group with improvisa- tions on the piano of modern har- monies.

Music Appreciation Theme of Address At R.N.A.O. Meeting The regular meeting of Chapter 1, District 5, of the Registered Nurses' Association of Ontario was held on Monday evening at Mec- Laughlin Hall. Mr. Albert Wedgery, Reg. N. who was the guest speaker chose as his subject "Music Appreciation" and stated that his purpose was to stimulate an interest in the pur- suit and understanding of good music, which to so many individuals remains a closed door, beyond whose threshold lies a wonderful world of esthetic enjoyment. A program of personal thoughts, general musical information, occas- fonal biographical references to great composers and other relevant facts provided a suitable background for the recordings used to illustrate the speaker's commentary. An attempt was made to present a comprehensive selection eof var- ious types of music, and during the course of the program recordings of choral, orchestral, operauic, piano, and Viennese music were heard. Mr. Wedgery was introduced by Miss Irene Moore and a vote of thanks was expressed by Miss Edna Knutson. Miss Amy Griffin addressed the Group on the $10:00 fee for mem- bership in the R.N.A.O. and stres- sed the reasons and advantages of belonging to such an Association. The new officers for 1951 then took office and refreshments were served by the Social Committee. Hooked rugs usually wear first | around the edges.

Homes of the Royal Family Londoners have been getting a low {flying bird's-eye view of the homes of their royal family as the result of a traffic diversion. Piccadilly is being resurfaced, and west-bound traffic goes down Pall Mall, the Mall and Constitution Hill to Hyde Park Corner. Your bright red, two decker bus sails straight past the Athenaeum, hoary with learning, new-bright with three new colors of paint. If you are sitting up front on the top deck, you can look into the ruins of the Carlton Club, former Tory stronghold. The bus turns off Pall Mall just before the clock tower of St. James' Palace, where the Duke of Gloucester, brother of the King, now lives. You can almost peer into his bedroom window as the bus passes. At your left there's a good view of a formal garden and wide green lawn, shut off by a high wall from street level passers by. In the middle sits a large red brick man- sion called Marlborough House, whose drawn shades suggest that few people live there. It is the home of Queen Mother Mary, now spending her last years quietly but actively. Prince Charlie Playing Necks crane towards the window as you turn west into the Mall it- self, past a Georgian house with fresh cream paint, wall to wall with dust brown St. James' Palace. This is Clarence House, and maybe Prince Charlie will be playing in the garden or waving from a win- dow. There are crowds of people outside but police keep them quiet, for Princess Elizabeth may be tak- ing an afternoon nap. The bus makes an arc of 180 degrees round the overlarge Queen Victoria Memorial in front of Buckingham - Palace, which dom= inates the end of the Royal Boule- Vard. It looks east to the Admir- aly Arch past St. James' "Park, where the Stuart princes once played with their spaniels. Late summer geraniums at the end of the park vie for color with the red of the bus and the scarlet guardsmen's uniforms at the Palace gates. There's no Royal banner flying from the palace mast, for the King is in Scotland, shooting grouse. But as the bus trundles up Con- stitution Hill, you can look down from your grandstand seat into the garden behind the Palace, scene of so many fabulous garden parties. A couple of grounds-keepers lean on their rakes for a quiet chat by the conservatory window. The whole huge park west of Buckingham Palace is empty, right down to the tennis courts near the Hyde Park Corner end, and your bus ducks under the high stone arch back into a swirl of traffic. You may have failed to catch a glimpse .of royalty at home, but you've seen the houses they livé in closer than you're ever likely to again. Chicago Receives 'Ti-Coq' Heartily Next Stop Broadway Chicago, Jan. 18 -- (AP)--"Ti- Coq," , an often-bright piece of theatrical confection, had its Amer- ican premiere last night at the Harris Theatre, and first-nighters gave the all-Canadian cast a lusty welcome with a special ac- colade for Gratien Gelinas, its star, author, producer and director. Presented in its English version, "Ti-Coq"--that is, the "Li'l Roost- er"--tells the tale of a foundling who finds and loses the love he sought through his life, This may not register as a par- ticularly engrossing problem in some sophisticated circles, but as presented here the pathos, sim- plicity and directness of the tale safeguard the play from any threat of mawkishness or fawning senti- mentality. Since the Canadian cast has been playing "Ti-Coq" a record- breaking time in its original French, the switch to English poses some unique problems. The at- tempt to employ the American idiom frequently. fails: It also appears that the word "hell" has home multi-purpose function that is not- wholly. understood by the actors--as though they had been told Americans use it as the ex- treme in profanity as well as in the most innocent of expressions. But this is a minor distraction in an otherwise-beguiling production. Whatever its shortcomings as an outstanding play, "Ti-Coq" de- serves the popularity it won in Canada solely for its unpreten- tiousness and candidness. Last week it played before sell- out houses in Toronto before com- ing to Chicago. It is scheduled to open on Broadway next month. 30th Anniversary Of Centre St. H. & S.

Miss Jacqueline Wright play- ed a piano selection entitled "Lon- donder: Air", Miss Carol Peters and Miss Darlene Andrews gave two song and dance routines ac- companied at the piano by Mrs. W. S. Peters, . Mrs. D. E. Sturgis introduced Dr. George Werry, as guest speaker for the evening. Dr. Werry chose Den- tal Health as his topic. A film was shown on the importance of proper dental care. Special care should be taken before a child is born to pro- tect his teeth. Later he should be taken to the dentist at regular in- tervals for a check, he said. Dr. Werry stressed: the importance of correct diet to build good sound teeth and also the teeth should be cleaned after. each meal. Mrs. Cook thanked Dr. Werry for speaking to the members. A gaily decorated birthday cake was cut by Miss S. A, Moise, teacher at Centre Street School. Represhments were served by Mrs. C. E. Crouse and her commit- tee.
