PRESIDENTS ADDRESS
Officers and Members:
Another year his passed and as President I have the honor to ad- dress the members of the Montague sub-Division of the C. W. L. of can- ada at this their fourth annual meeting.
Two years ago you honored me with. the position of President, last year you renewed that confidence by entrusting to me for another year the delicate duties which the office entails, and tonight this labor of love is completed. I hope my ser- vices have merited your approval. To my successor I give the mur- ance that her work will be both pleasant and agreeable, and my as- sistance and co-operation always available. It is pleasant to recall the many courteous relations 1 en- countered during the two years and the cordial contacts made with of- ficers, members and friends of the league. To all who helped me in my wculr I am deeply indebted.
The year now ending was marked with no particular singular achieve- ment, but reports to be submitted by the secretary and Convenors of the different committees will reveal that many duties of a miscellaneous character were performed in your name.
Feeling that a one hundred per cent membership should be the ob- jective of a society such as ours, we have directed much effort in this direction and we are pleased to re- port a gratifying increase in our
This has been an exceptionally
hard year and financially we are
not able to make as favourable a
report as we would wish. We have,
however, paid our obligations re Na-
tional and Diocesan fees and sent
our contributions to Sisters of Ser-
vice, Budget, Scholarship and Re-
gina Relief Fund-. We have had Muses said for deceased friends
and on the Feast of our Patroness, our Lady of Good Counsel, a Mass said for the living members of the
Ioague. .
The year did not pass without
sadness to the Catholic Women's League of Canada. The death of- our well beloved King George was s of deep regret, for he was the best loved King of all ages, as shown by the loving tributes from his sub- jects at the time of his Jubilee Cel- ebratlon.
The League too was called upon to bear a. distinct loss in the death of His Grace, Archbishop 0’Donneil of Halifax. whose interest in all Catholic activities, especially League activities, was always manifest.
Certain members of our own sub- division have had deep sorrows to bear in the passing of friends and relatives. By the death of Mrs. Catherine Clair, Montague sub- Dlvision lost its first member. she was ever a lymnathetic friend, a aealoua Loacue worker and a gfinan with a genuine devotion and for

our efforts during the year fol- lowed‘ the usual ‘lines of lullelon. social service and Education. All committees have been ‘exceptionally active in their branches of League activities and to them on behalf of our sub-Division I wish to extend a well-merited tribute of praise and appreciation.
The Study Club organised in the early Autumn has been functioning regularly and as meetings were held each Monday night, during the last few weeks Professor Blanchard's Radio Talks on the “History of Prince Edward Island" have been a most interesting and instructive part of our study programme. Many members were also interested in the addresses given by Dr. Croteau and Professor Sullivan on Thursday ev- enings. St. Dunstan‘s University sponsor of these excellent broad-
work on our Island.
Sub-Division is deeply indebted to the members of the Holy Name So- ciety, who were instrumental in in- stalling the electric lights and a radio in our 0. W. L. Hall. That this thoughtful act was much ap- preciated is evident by the number who attend each Sunday and Wed- nesday evening to hear the excellent Lenten sermons preached luv Rev. Thos. McMahon. We, the members of the C. W. L. tender our grateful thanks and ask God to bless them individually and as an organization. May I in passing draw the atten- tion of members to the many in- structive and valuable pamphlets is- sued by the Catholic Truth Society. A pamphlet rack in our League
Catholic literature.
In September I had the honor of representing this Sub-Division at the Diocesan convention held in Georgetown. The convention was honored by the presence of our Na- tional President, Mrs. J. Coffey of Montreal. The spirit of loyalty, co- operation and enthusiasm ma.nifes- ted by officers, delegates and visit- ors on that occasion augurs well for the future of the C. W. L. on Prince Edward Island.
The change made at the last Na- tional Convention held at Ottawa with regard to the awarding of C. W. L. Scholarships is of interest to our members. Whereas formerly one scholarship was awarded each year to students of Canada, a smaller one is now awarded to each province. This change makes it possible for a greater number of student of rural schools to compete. In this province the Catholic girl making highest marks in the Matriculation Examin- ations for entrance to Prince of Wales College wins the Scholarship. We have 9. number of Montague Catholic girls trying those examina- tions this year, and with the out- standing success which the Prin- cipal, Mr. Norbert Grant, has had in the past, may we not hope to see one of our own girls win this much coveted prize? Certainly our best wishes are with them.
In conclusion, I wish to extend to our chaplain, Father Klggins, my sincere gratitude for the assistance given me during my two years of office, also to all officers. convenors and members for their loyalty and hearty oo—operation and I ask for my successor a continuance of the same support.
Respectfully submitted.

REPORT OF RECORDING SECRETARY
Madam President, Members:
-At the annual meeting of the Montague Sub-Division of the Ca- tholic Women's League held on April 4, 1935. I was re-appointed Secretary and once more it is my duty to present to you a resume of our activities during the past year. Last year we made an appeal for an increase in membership and while we are pleased to say many responded, we are yet unable to boast one hundred per cent mem- bership. However, if our women could realize that His Holiness Pope

While the cash receipts are not as large as last year .the amount of good work accomplished was equaL to that of any previous year and the active members may look back with no regrets on the results od their endeavors.
As we are yet feeling the effects of the depr it was not ‘ ’ a profitable project to hold our Chiclren Supper and Bazaar. This annual affair of the League had to be disposed of, which cut down our activities very materially. ‘
On April ildth the Feast of our Patroness a High Mass was offered for the living members.

The activities of the Education Committee in the teaching of Cat- echlsm. giving prizes, etc. has al- ready been reported and clearly shows they have been adding their share to the many good deeds ao- compllshed by the 0. W. L. in each succeeding year of its existence.
A study Club was organised in our Sub-1: in the ‘ ‘ holding weekly meetings all winter. The members of this Broup were given some very instructive infom- ation with regard to the significance of the Vestments and the different parts of the Mass, which bring to us a realization of the many beautiful ceremonies contained in Holy Re- ligion. Current Events was an im- portant part of the ramme of each meeting, while the radio ad- dreasaa on the "History of Prince Edward Island" by Professor Blan- chard formed an interesting part of our most recent programmes. At one meeting a demonstration on the making of artificial flower-a was much enjoyed by the members. Many other interesting subjects have been dealt with atthe differ-

Hall and providing a radio for the use of the parish dur- ing the Lenten season. This gener- ous act and spirit of co-operation is greatly appreciated. In addition to this many other articles for general use have been added to the League Room equipment.
All can , ndence has been care- fully and promptly dealt with and

To our Chaplain, Father Kiggins, who with inconvenience to himself was present at many of our meet- ings. we attribute much of the year’s success. His words of encourage- ment and good cheer helped lighten our difficulties, and to him we ax- tend our deepest gratitude.
