Sister Batchelor, Executive Board Member, gave a good re- port on the Annual Convention held in Nanaimo, and Sister Em- merson gave an interesting talk on what we can call a progres- sive program in assisting the membership to understand the seriousness of the Auxiliary’s responsibilities to the IWA. It was decided that we would hold two meetings a month, as one evening didn’t give us enough time for both business and a social. A baby shower was held for Sister Rust, who has welcomed a little daughter into their home. Plans for our dance, to be held on the eve of St, Patricks Day were completed, and every- body is welcome, and we will sure try to give them a good time.
