LAURISTON W.I.
MONTHLY MEETING There was a fair attendance of members of the Lauriston branch of the Women’s Institute. In the absence of [the president (Mrs H. T. Crothers), Mrs J. N. Mclntosh presided. Mrs A. Goodwin read the motto for the month, which was: “Cheerfulness or joyfulness is the atmosphere under which all things thrive.” The roll call was “Talents I should choose, and why.” Members decided to celebrate the birthday of the branch on the September meeting day, the function to take the form of a- social afternoon. Those present brought gifts for the lepers, but as .the attendance was not large, it was agreed to accept further gifts at the August meeting. Competitions resulted: Bowl of flowers, Mrs N.
