Ieport 0f Illns Committee Madame President and Ladies:- Although off to a late start, some concrete work was accomplished during the year.
On seeing in the Guardian that children's film libraries were to be set up across Canada, a letter was sent to lusulnu headquarters in- qulrlng about the plan. and how recommended films were to be made available, etc. The informa- tion received informed us that St. John was our nearest distributing centre—gave a list of films all ready passed on and recommended, and asked that we solicit the help of other organizations in securing these films through the co-opera- tion of our local theatre manager. The pictures were all very inex- pensive, so there should be no re- jection of our plan on that ac- count.
On contacting the three local chapters of the I. O. D. E. and the Catholic Women's League we re- ceived most cordial assurance of their interest and backing. Mr. Walters wrote the F. G. Spencer Co. and the first fruits of our ef- fort appeared when “Anne of Green Gables" was shownat the Capitol, and an extra Saturday morning matinee at. the Prince Edward. Mr. Walters himself is ln favor of the scheme to show good children's films regularly, and gave us to un- derstand that for a start, they would provide one once n month. This we hope will eventually be weekly.
The sincere thanks of the com- mittee are due the Royal Edward Chapter of the I. O. D. E. for their willing co-operation ln viewing pic- tures at the Capitol and Empire theatres. With the help of these ladies and our own members 32 shows were seen and reported on. It reflects great credit on the Lea- gue’: efforts to insist on better children's pictures that there was only one really bad report from all these films. By that, I don't mean that all the shows were suit- able for children, but at least they
weren't distinctly harmful. The criticisms ran more on the "too thrilling and exciting" line. A def-
inlle improvement has been shown since the League took an interest in this phase of children's enter- tainment. and I would ask your continued support. when asked by the committee to see and report on. one picture during the year. Next Fall we hope to have really good children's rnatlnees shown regular- ly and as often as the F. G. Spen- cer Co. will permit.
Many thanks to all the members who co-operated with Lhe film com- mittee in any way. Respectfully submitted, Betty E. Kennedy, chair- man film committee.
Child Development League
Another year has been left be- hind us and we now review the past
The progress of this Committee will of course be slow, but we feel quite confident it will be sure.
Last August Dr. Stogdlll visited this Province and spoke to a num- ber of the School Improvement League members and others who were interested in this work. He told us of the work done in a number of Homes and Schools for undeveloped children in the Pro- vince of Ontario, which was very interesting. l-le planned a visit to the Province again about the month of November but owing to unforseen circumstances was not able to return at that time.
During the month of November a meeting was held with representa- tives of the Catholic Women's Lea- gue, Women's Institute and the School Improvement League and a brief drawn up and signed by the above; also signed by the Home and School, Summerslde, with a number of suggestions to the Gov- ernment. This brief was later pre- sented io the Goyernment, at which time we were given some encouragement re something being done about it.
In n recent conversation with the Department of Health and Wel- fare it. was suggested that we meet with the Health Planning Commission and present them with a hrlef stating the number of children We would expect would enter this home and school. etc. It is hoped that this brief will be drawn up and presented in the very near future.
In closing I wish to thank all the members who have so kindly given of their time to help ln this undertaking. It ls only through the united efforts of all Interested in a Home and School for the unde-

tender ferns, and I walk oarelully so I will avoid crushing the many lovely ferns in many many varieties in the Island woods. This week I have been busy planting Chrysan- themums. Some new ones and others which I wlntered over in the cellar in pots of soil. lust watered occasionally. I have wlntered them outside but: ant a bit fear- ful of losing them so late in the Fall. I gather them in after bloom- ing so profusely all of ten weeks. They prolong the garden season in a very colorful way and are ex- cellent cut flowers.
A bright corner of the garden with maple leaves. Clematis Pani- cultn with wonderfully rragrant. cream blooms and splendid dark green foliage of good texture and many mums in orange. mauve. bronze, yellow and white; also the mauve Allyssum as an edging. with many dahllas made me vary happy last year when other parts of the garden became tired and worn out. _
Among the best garden mums which I have grown are an early white called Alabaster in a large slightly incurved form; Fred Rock- well bronze and orange scarlet Pom Pom with many flowers to a branch, this blooms in early Oc-
tober. O O O
Lavender Lady. an exquisite pure lavender in color, large double fragrant flowers that keep a long time, quantities of bloom and early, one of the very best.
Lavender Lassie, identical in coi- or with Lady but in the smaller Pom Pom form and low cushion- like habit of growth; this blooms in September.
Pink Radiance covered with bloom and this ls a hardy grower. All of these mums are supposed to winter over outside.
This month we have the fragrant Lily of the Valley in the garden. This is good for cutting and also for corsages. This Lily is used a great deal in shady spots under trees where grass will not do well and multiplies very freely. It. may he forced indoors by potting up as soon as the snow is off the ground.
Thanks for the kind letters and cards and I shall close this week's garden chat with this verse.
"Turn thine eyes to earth and Heaven
God for thet- the Spring has given,
Taught the birds their melodies,
Ciothed the earth, and cleared the skies, '
For thy pleasure or thy food—
Pour thy soul in gratitude!"
