The guest speaker Was U. S. Vice-Consul Sam Fromowitz, in Toronto, who gave a talk on the electoral system in the U.S.A. He referred to charts he had made showing the trend after each presidential election for the opposite side to increase their membership in the House of Representatives, in the fol- lowing inter-presidential elec- tion. While members could not decide if Mr. Fromo- witz was a Republican or Demoâ€" crat, they were left in no doubt that he was a firm believer in his country's method of election!

Mrs. William Babcock and Mrs. William Ellis directed the attention of all present to the Christ. through familiar carols and the well loved Christ- mas story of Luke's Gospel. Bowling at Allencoui‘t Lanes is progressing well with very gratifying results. The main idea of the league, of course, is to get members out in a group and to encourage fraternization as well as to indulge in the healthy physical exercise which bowling furnishes. Competi- tion is not the main issue 81- though at times. there have emerged some rather amazing scores. The gain decorated home of Mrs. Lorene Swanson, Crosby Avenue. was the locale for the Kinettes Christmas party held on Monday evening. Thirty- four Kinettes and past Kinettes were in attendance. A short business meeting was conducted by President Peggy Hopkins, and Kinsmen Presi- dent Ted Hopkins installed two new members. Mrs. Joan Burton and Mrs. Pat Mills. Mrs. Joyce Woodhead. who is a transfer from Nova Scotia was also wel- comed into the club. and all ‘three were presented with pins and a corsage. Thank you letters had been receiVed from York Central H05pital for an isolette purâ€" chased by the Kinettes and from the Canadian Mental Health As- sociation for Christmas gifts donated for patients.
