Isabella W I Meeting Opens 60th Anniversary Year
The Isabella Women's Institute marked its 60th year by reviewing 1926 minutes and displaying the original Charter dated October 2, 1922. Members read Rural Reflections history, thanked servicemen for food parcels, and planned a May 1 smorgasbord fundraiser. A New Horizons grant aided history work. 36 gifts were sent to Brandon Hospital for Mental Diseases and $50 to Father Larre's Roscoe Home in Regina, which burned down earlier in the year. The Consumer Association of Canada report by M. E. Heise covered central vacuuming, light bulbs, escape ladders, and self cleaning ovens.
