Nancy and Wendy Wilson, ac- tive members of Kent Centre 4â€"H Homemaking Club, cook for two appreciative brothers as well as for the rest of the family. so much repetition that they would make very dull reading. But sometimes there are points in a routine report well worth notingâ€"as we found in a story from Miss Nina Read, P.R.O. for Wooler Institute. Wooler Institute sponsors two 4-H Home- making Clubs, Wooler and Mount Pleasant. Their latest project was “The Club Girl Enter- tains" and during the Christmas school vacaâ€" tion the girls entertained the Institute members at an afternoon tea. As the guests arrived they were received by two club members and in- vited to View exhibits showing something of what the girls had learned, There were the members’ notebooks, a table covered with a properly laundered cloth and showing the cor- rect setting for a dinner, complete with silver, china and crystal, Then there was the tea table attractively arranged for serving tea to the guests later in the meeting. The chairman. a club member of course, welcomed the guests and the girls provided a program of music and readings. Institute offi- cers spoke, complimenting the girls and exâ€" pressing their appreciation of the efforts, the skill and the self sacrifice of the leaders. The County Home Economist spoke on points of graciousness in entertaining with a few rules on table etiquetteâ€"both part of the girls' train‘ ing in their club. The Home Economist and the Women’s Institute District President poured tea and the girls served sandwiches and cookies that they had made themselves as part of their project training.

Mrs. D. Johnston demonâ€" strating each step as they went along." Miss Irvine commented: “The leader had her equipment on hand. She works well with the girls and they are really interested. They can all operate a sewing machine although one girl had to use her hand on the knee control. Some modification in machine controls would be helpful: and there should he an assistant leader became the girls need special individual help. . . . It is wonderful to watch these girls. They are getting a real thrill out of doing the same kind 01. work as other girls." Gift to Community Arena By Mrs. George Parker HE STREETSVIHE Women's Institute I indicated its interest in the erection of a community arena for our town, insti- gated by a group of public spirited citizens who realized the lack of sport facilities for our young people and contributed fifty dollars a year for three years to the project. The arena opened in 1962 with many es‘ sentials still needed and the Institute members decided to donate something that would benefit the whole community. A public address sys- tem seemed most appropriate and estimates priced it within our reach, With a bank balâ€" ance of over 5200 we planned to raise more by a series of card parties held in members‘ homes which netted us about Slfitl.
