Miss June Aileen Elliot, sponsored by Cainsville Womâ€" en's Institute, winner of the North and South Brunt Women's Institute Bursary for 1962. Miss Elliot is now taking the Degree Course at Mucdonuld Institute. Slate River branch, at the close of a report of excellent Institute work, comments: “Our Institute had a most successful year. financially. socially and from all reports making a good community even better. We seem to have one hundred per cent support for any of our tin- dertakings." New Hamburg: “One thing we strongly recommend is our telephone committee. Four members call all members a few days previou: to each meeting and it does help the attend- ance.†Whitechureh: "We would recommend that every district make plans to finance sending a delegate to the National Convention in NM. and when she returns have a meeting to hear her report of the convention with slides. Work- ing together on a project like this unites branches and arouses interest." Roscmont: “We hold six evening summer meetings so that young mothers can come without their children for a change. Our older members prefer afternoon meetings. so we have six winter afternoon meetings." Campania: “Our younger members are more interested in homemaking than in having so much on procedure." Calton: “Instead of having speakers from outside. our members have taken an active part in the program at each meeting, This has given them confidence and during the ten Years we have been organized there has been a marked change in our group." This comes from Kingsmill-Mapleton: "A member who was to have received her Life Membership at the fifty-fifth anniversary meet- ing had the money sent to the School for Retarded Children instead of having it provide a Life Membership for her."
