The 4th annual banquet of the York County Holstein CluJb held at Pickering College, Newmarket, on the ev‘ening of March 17th, proved to be a wonderful success, most appro- priately carried out to pay fitting tribute to both Black and' White bovine race and‘ the patron saint of Ireland. After (being received by the officers and their wives, the two hun- dlre‘d‘ guests were ushered to the din- in-g room where the ‘College kitchen staff under Miss McCully’s alble' (ii-V rection, served a most delightful dinner.

YORK COUNTY JUNEOR FARMERS _ ELECT OFFICERS FOR YEAR 1939 Veterans National Emergency Survey Following the nominations of the county officers to be voted on in the afternoon, Rev. W. H. Fuller of Markham addressed the group on “How to conduct, a business meetâ€" ing”. The speaker gave some very valuable hints on the proper hand‘k ing of motions, amendments, voting, etc. In fact, a. school of this type open to presidents or chairmen and’ secretaries of the various organiza- 133115be the county WOuId be most valuable. After the adjournment for dinner at the King George Hotel, they re convened in two groups to discuss programme planning. Mdss Florence P. Eadie and Miss Betty Wallace of the Women’s Institute Branch and Mr. A. H. Martin, Assistant Direc- tor of Agricultural Representatives, offered several helpful suggestions All ex-Service Men’s Associations across the Dominion are co-operatâ€" ing with the authorities, to secure registration of all men and women who have previously served‘ in His Majesty's Semice on land, sea or alr.

Jerry Walker of Todmorden Heads County Body Doris Cook of Maple is Vice-President BINGO Wm WM for‘ preparing club programmes, stressing the importance of having a detailed monthâ€"bquonth program, thefvalue of having the members do something to help themselves and‘ keefiing the entertainment features in tihe secondary position to the edu- cational work. The ladies had an interesting discussion of the project clulb work being carried on this spring in which they are making a studry of meats. The leaders» had visited the Packing plants the day previous as a part of their training to lead their respective groups. W.. M. Cockiburn, Agricultural Re- preSentative, spoke on the duties or the Secretary and Treasurer, offer- ing many suggestions to help these officers to carry out their duties more effectively. He explained the simple filing system which he had sulpplieil to each Secretary. A good secretary is a tower of strength to any president in helping to keep the business running smoothly and even in' the conducting- of a meeting. The speaker stressed neatnes‘s, accuracy andI prompt and proper attention to all correspondence rather than wait- in'g', perhaps three weeks for a meet- ing, to discuss matters. Someone familiar with accounting should be elected as auditor rather than “one ‘of "the boy's”. A goo<L auditor not only protects the members but the treasurer as well. Membership cards Wiith. stubs as a record are prefer- afble and in filling out, these card's, icbe‘ques or receipts, the stub should be final im first, the recipient will teII you if lhi‘S part has not been» WTlitflem up. In: the balloting for officers the following were elected: President, Jerry Walker, Todmor- den: VTéJehPresid'ent, Miss Doris Cook, Mapl‘e; SeenTreasq Jim Farts, Nmnarkem Owing to sickness anti other facâ€" tors, it was decided' to hold the Junâ€" ior Farmers’ Drama Festival at Pick-ering College on Monday, April 17th instead of during Easter week. Plays will be presented by Poplar Bank, VelIore, Un‘ionville and Vie- toria Square Clubs. Presentation to Mrs. Farrants by Richvale Friends The mean’s Association of Rich- vaule United Church met at the home of Mrs. Cyril Baker and held the regular business meeting. We regret to report that several of the mem- bers were unable to attend owing to illness. After the business was finished a social hour was spent d‘ul‘fing‘ which the members expressed their regrets because Mrs. Farrants was leaving Rich'vale and presented her with‘ an address and an English flannel houisecoat. The address was as fol- lows: Dear Mus. Fan-ants:â€"-â€"â€" 'The Women’s Association of Rich- vale take great pleasure in present- ing‘ this gizft to you as a token of the high esteem in which we hold you. As President‘of our Associa- tion for so many years, you have worked untiring‘ly, and ‘t is with much .sorrorw that we see you leave us. Your place is going to be hard to fill for we are so few, and- the obstacles seem so many, but we will ail, I am sure, try our best to keerp together and work for the good of Rich'vale church.
