Since the first Business and Professional Women's Club was organized in St. Louis, Missouri, in 1919 after World War I, mem- bership has reached 325,000 in 24 countries of the world. Canada joined the Interna- tional Federation in 1930. Mem- bership in any one club is ari open sesame to the privileges of any Business and Profession- al Club in any place or country in the world and the fine spirit in which members from ll countries fraternize is a lesson in international relations, The Charter President of the: Oshawa club. was Mrs. Mary Nobes, who was followed by Miss V. Lidkea, Mrs. H. P. Bull, Mrs. Mary Telford, Dr. Thelma Blair, Miss Jennie Pringle, Mrs. Dorothy Grossart, Miss Audrey Lawlor, Miss Rose Hawkes, Miss Evelyn Moore, Mrs. Eileen Wilson and Miss Gladys Hill. Members meet once a m*nth at Adelaide House to hear guest speakers and re- port on the various activities in which they are interested. To encourage better scholastic standing, scholarships are awarded annually to certain otitstanding students in the thtee Oshawa Collegiates, the two in Whitby and the Oshawa General Hospital. Christmas cheer is provided for several el. derly women. Over the years the Club has raised funds for a var- fety of other projects, securing books for the YWCA library, providing an electric clothes dryer for one of the units of the city's low rental housing projects, assisting the local hos- Eva Alexander Unit Of St. Stephen's The Eva Alexander Unit of "St. Stephens UCW has as its members, the older ladies of the Church, many of whom have been members since St. St- phen's (then known as North Oshawa United Church) was or- ganized.

If you have such @ problem, you should visit Patte's at 85 Simcoe North (Phone 725-3529) and see just whet can be done with "Old Masters Liquid Wood". if how more and more girls are interested and are a great cre- dit to their leaders. .. Interesting readings are also enjoyed. An Early history of Southern Ontario County, Parts of Govenor Simcoe's life story, also a story on the Maple Syrup Industry, are a few of @ read- ings enjoyed. : A trip to Oshawa library to see display of handicrafts of ten nations. was planned by our Citizenship convener, and very much enjoyed.
