Active

The newly - formed Women’s
Auxiliary, Local 1-80, at Parks-
ville, held a successful dance on
Nov. 24, and reports a steady
increase in membership.

The Lake Cowichan Women’s
Auxiliary, Local 1-80, at a recent
meeting enjoyed a film program
presented by Business Agent

the program.

HANDICAPPED
BAZAAR TOPS

The inspiring story of her own
mother, who learned to type at
the age of 70 after losing her
eyesight, was related by Alder-
man Anna Sprott in opening the
unique bazaar held by the Co-
Operative Society for the Visual-
ly Handicapped on Noy. 9 at the
Sauer: Hall, 10th and

‘ain.

On display was a wide variety
of articles made by sightless peo-
ple, including a line of household
brushes and mops which com-
pares favorably with professional -
brands.

One of the outstanding exhibits
was an occasional table which
was a masterpiece of workman-
ship. It was constructed by Wal-
ter H, Middleton of Chilliwack
who is totally blind. He used
cured apple wood from the ap-
ple trees in his own back yard.

The Disabled Civilian Work-
shop at Moose Jaw, Saskatche-
wan, which is providing employ-
ment for people who have never
been able to work before, con-
tributed a display of nurses’ uni-
forms, sheets, pillow cases, ladies’
slacks, children’s dresses,'etc. The
excellent workmanship of these
artiéles caused considerable com-
ment among the large crowd in
attendance.

While the bazaar featured re-
markable craftsmanship, the
abilities of visually handicapped
people in other fields were exhi-
bited at the dance held in con-
junction with the bazaar. Music
was provided by the Vic's Co-op
Orchestra, which includes three
blind musicians.

Of particular interest was the
exceptional piano technique of
Alice Phillipson, who is partially
blind, and the performance of
gifted young Pat Siki, also par-
tially blind, who played the gui-
tar and sang a group of: three
numbers.

Lumber Co-op .

PRINCE ALBERT.—The Cum-
berland House Wood Products
Co-operative Limited, second
lumbering co-operative ever to be
formed in Saskatchewan, was or-
ganized recently.

Consisting of 15 members, six
of whom serve on the board as
directors, the co-operative is
chartered to conduct the logging
sawing and delivery of timber
products.

The coming season's operations
call for the delivery of 500,000
board feet of spruce lumber,
taken from the MacDonald Bay
forest region, which has been
contracted for by the Saskatche-
wan Timber Board.

Here are the Brands
