THURSDAY, JANUARY 11th, 1940. VICTORIA SQUARE NEWSY NOTES This seems to be the season for annual meetings and elections of officers. On Wednesday evening of last week the Sunday School memâ€" bers met to elect their officers for this year, with the following ne- sul'ts: Business Supt., Mr. R. Boy-nâ€" ton; 1st asst, Douglas Gee; 2nd, E. Avison; 3rd, F. Bruirmvell; 4th, H. Collard; Secretaries, Messrs. Alvin Caseley, Jim Valliere, Cecil Nichols; Treasurer, Mr. Wilmot Brumiwell; Pianists, Mrs. Ratcliffc, Miss Mabel Sanderson; Song loaders, Miss Mar- garet Avison, Miss Dorothy Oliver, Mr. H. Collard; Librarians, Messrs. Harold Klinck and Andrew Forsan; Lantern operators, Messrs. Fnank Bruinlwell, Alvin Caseley; Teachers, Mr. Louis Nichols, Miss Mabel San- dierson, Mrs. Collard, Mrs. McCague, Mr. Fraser Gee. At the close of the meeting among other items of business it was voted to give the church $40.00. Jt will be noticed there are 5 superintendent's. This Is a good idea to get more in office and thereby become more interest- ed. They each take a Sunday in the month excepting the 5th one who only has about four Sundays 3 year. Each Supt. picks his own hymns, and is responsible for short talks on whatever program he preâ€" fers. On Sunday it was decided to give prizes to those again in 1940 vho attend Sunday School 50 Sundays out of the 52. The Supt. said “He wished next year that; there would be 100 who had attended the 50 Sun- days of the year and" would be ‘ook- ing for a prize.” Your humlble scribe is thinking the church won’t be gett- ing $40.00 next year if they do. However, come on folks and see how many can attend for 50 Sundays. Will those who have any gray wool from the Red Cross 'branch of our Institute please return the»,art- icles they have, along with the bits of leftover yarn as soon as they can. That was {bought with our own money and we would like to keep it by itself. Mabel Sanderson has received some wool from the Union- ville Red .Cross and anyone Wish- ing to help knit for this cause please get in touch with her. The friends of Mrs. J. J. E.

Stiver on Wednesday, January 3rd with a splendid attend- ance present. This was Mrs. Stiv- er’s meeting and she presided, tak- sorry to hear she is not well again. The next W.A. supper will he held on Wednesday evening, January 17. Instead of a program the church has called the congregational meetâ€" ing for that evening. We are glad to hear that Shirley, Ronald and Audrey Gee are recov- ering nicely from their colds. The J.F.A. and J.W.I. are holding their annual banquet on Tuesday evening, January 16th. The guest speaker will be Rev. Mr. Newham of Markham. Both Presidents have tried their bestâ€" to start the meetâ€" ings on time during the few months they have had charge. Now mem- bers if this banquet doesn‘t start in time to begin the program by 8.30 that is your fault. Won’t you please try and compel-ate with the com- mittees in charge by being there a little early. Owing to the stormy night last Friday the WA. executive'meeting was postponed until Monday even- ing, which was held at the home of the President, Mrs. E. Caseley. The main business was to choose the different groups under the different leaders, the results being as folâ€" lows: Group 1, Leader, Mrs. Coll-, ard; Mrs. S. Boynton, Miss D. Oli.I ver, Mrs. L.
