The Pujah Chapter of Hadassah in Oshawa was first formed in 1926 wedded to the needs of a pioneer- in the home of the late Mrs. An- dren from Europe, Asia, Africa nie Engel with a charter mem- bership of 10. Throughout the years, it grew steadily and today enjoys a total membership of ap- proximately seventy active mem- bers. Hadassah in Oshawa is primar- | fly concerned with fund raising and education. Throughout the years the ladies have run success- fu! dances and teas. Several rum- mage sales a year are held and for the first time a nearly new clothing sale was held last year. An annual pure food sale has been held for as long as this chapter has been in existence -- always a toothsome and very much look- ed-forward-to affair. The biggest project of the sea- son is our annual bazaar which has been held for nine successive vears. These bazaars have always been a tremendous success. The entire membership is deeply grateful to the public which has so generously supported it both by. donations and purchases while attending the bazaar. Considerable proportions of the funds raised is left here in Osh- awa by donations to. local charit- ies such as The Community Chest and the Oshawa General Hospi- tal. The rest of the money is spent in Canada for use in Israel such as supplies for medical serv- ices, clothing, 1inens, blankets, implements for farming, building materials and other products in great need. s Canadian Hadassah is in charge of: : Nahalal -- a complete scientif- ic agricultural training school for girls and boys.

Onward Group Known for Catering The Onward Group of Harmony W.A. was formed in January, 1952, when the large group was divided into two smaller groups. The meetings were held in the women's homes at first but as the membership enlarged it was necessary to hold the meetings in the. Church parlor. Our: main project to raise money was a fall bazaar with both groups joining in selling their goods. We also held fashion shows, teas, rummage sales and candy sales to raise money for our Christian Educational Centre, After the buiiding was erected we were able to cater to other organizaticns and also hold a tur- key supper both in the &pring and fall. This year's fall supper is to be held on Nov. 22. Many enjoyable social even- ings are enjoyed during the year with special meetings at Christ- mas and also in June. Any new members would be very wel- come, The executive for 1958 is as follows: leader, Mrs, Norman Gemmell; treasurer, Mrs. Merle Lamb; secretary, Mrs. Stewart Mackie.
