District Annual West York District Annual was held in Maple United Church, Thurs- day, June 2nd at 10 o'clock. The meeting opened with the Ode follow- ed by two minutes silence in the memory of Mrs. Alfred Watt. Then the Lord’s Prayer and the Creed were repeated in unison. The address of welcome from Map- le W.I. was given by Mrs. Norman McCullough to the other ten branch- es present, stressing the point of how much the Institute had flourish- ed in the past 52 years, and hoping they would find their day well spent. Mrs. Archie Cameron replied to this, saying she for one felt it an honour to be entertained by an Insittute which had just celebrated their 50th anniversary, and passed on to us the thought that if we would only re member the words of our Creed we would not find just our day, but our life fuller. The roll call of the branches was answered by all eleven branches in the District. The minutes of the 1948 annual meeting at Edgeley were read and approved. The report from the secretary-treaJSurer, Mrs. E. Harris was read and adopted and showed a small balance on hand. The books had been audited by Mrs. A. E. Snider and Mrs. D. Allen and found correct. Mrs. J. Snider, the district presi- dent, said she had enjoyed visiting all the branches iii the district ac- companied by Mrs. E. Harris, ‘had a luncheon meeting for all presidents, attended the convention at the Royal York Hotel in November of 1948, and the Ol’ficers‘ Rally at Guelph in May 1949. As she is retiring from office this year, she thanked all who had so willineg helped her in the past three years. She passed on to the meeting the information she had gathered .at the convention and rally.

She urged that many more try to attend the Fall Convention in the Royal York Hotel on November 9, 10 and 11. There were only 75 delegates from the diflei'ent branches in the Area last year, and she hoped a bet- ter representation would be present this year. She suggested a good way to advertise the W. I. was to have cards printed with the Institute Crest to be used for Get Well, Thank You Notes and Christmas cards. Before the afternoon session began, the ladies viewed a display of minâ€" iature dolls representing all the coun- tries of the world. A very beauti- ful doll showing Princess Elizabeth in her wedding gown, The Duke of Edinburgh was also portrayed. These dolls and all their clothes were made and displayed by Mrs. McFarlane and were ,a work of Art. session.

There is no doubt that the Iris has come a long way since 2000 B.C., and especially in this charming village, where not only two gardens boast this exquisite orchidâ€"like flower, but several in and around this community, and it is of great importance for ev- eryone to visit the Spring Show and notice the wide spread interest the Little Bros, have created in this dcâ€" _lightful field of Iris culture. ' But not only iris will be exhibited, maybe your garden boasts of some other flower, such as lupin, colum- biney poppy or even pansy, or maybe you have a lovely flowering shrub, there is a class for almost any flow- er in your garden if you will only take the trouble to let others see it at the Spring Show. As this show will be a large one, the entries will be accepted from 4 to 5.30 p.m., but a very good pro- gram has been arranged for the ev- ening session. Questions relating to any garden problem are invited and will be answered by experts, so, bring one along when you exhibit your flowers, and remember that every eX- hibit worthy of attention will be aw- arded a count regardless of the usual Ist, 2nd, and 3rd prize award. Flowers from the Show will decâ€" orate the Anglican Church for “Flow- er Sunday," June 12th. MUNICIPAL HALL SAFES HERE The two safe doors purchased from the J. J.
