President's Report

"As your Presldeilt for the PIN year. I wish to take this oppoi'tuli- ity to express my .

splendid spirit of co-operation that I received from each and every one of you for making this 3'83? 311' other succes-fill oiic. .

It seems a very short time ago that I was elected to fill this chair. a position I very milch feared at that time, after seeing ilie wonder- ful work done by the Past Presi- deiiis of the League. I felt that I would be unable to fill this position capably as they did; nevertheless I trust that I have in some meas-

of me. I would like to extend my sincere thanks to Rev. Father MacLeod for his help, inspiration and encour- c has been most. faithful in his at- tendance at our meetings and al- ways had some worthwhile thought to leave with us. It has certainly been a great help to me, that we could always turn to him for ad- vise when a problem arose as he was always here and always ready to help. My sincere thanks also in the Past. President of our league, Mrs. Malcolm Steele. for the C0-OpCi'Fl- itoli she so gr-iieroiisly gave to me at all times. To Past Presidents H Mrs. Dali MacNeill; Mrs. Sullivan: Miss Margaret Wedge. 1 also add my special thanks. for Wiiholll their help mid guidance I would have been at a loss many a time when an important. decision came to hand. To all officers and conveners. many thanks. a more splendid job could not have been expected from anyone: your duties and tasks at all times were an important factor in the smooth operation of our sub- division, and you have performed them in a manner. which I as your President, feel justly proud.

I also wish to extend special thanks to those who have taken part in any special work: To the convener and her committee for - Annual collections and Pantry sale -Mrs. T. Linkletter; Lottery Mrs. Abdoii Arscnault: Commun- ion brcakfast. and lunch for annual card party .- Mrs. Earle Hickey: Graduation Party -- Mrs. Liuirlcr Peters; Aiiiiiltil Dance-Mrs. Mal- colm steele: and weekly card pari- iee-Mrs. Nettie Gallant.

During the coming year two of our members. namely Mrs. Joseph Llnklettcr and Mrs. Josephine Mur- phy, will be terminating their ner- iod of office as social service con- venors Mrs. Linkletter has per- formed a very important and splendid job. As you all know. this work requires a lot of self-sacrifice, which she has given at all times; and many a home have. been hap-

Of course ili.'l.; Iposiiioii should not be regarded no la burden, bill as ll iioblc work, for Ho look after God's poor in ll. spirit of true charity, draws a blessing on ourselves. our Lord having said, f"Wliatsnevcr you have done to the flcast of my brcthrcil, you have ,done to me”. But are we not re- paid, when we think that by giviiig ta little of our time and means to

;word to cheer them and bring them iliearer to God. Mrs. Linkletter has done this noble work well an lam sorry to lose her. I wish her lsixccessor every blessing and slic- cess. I In Mrs. Murphy. our press re- iporter, details of all our incetiiigs i were given every coiisideratloli. and line publicity received deserves the thanks of each member of the sub- division. i I sincerely regret that Mrs. Mitr- ph)"s term of office has expired tfor she has taken great. interest. in glilillg rvcry detail of oilr invet- iizgs coiislderailoii at all illiics. In the past year our Still-i'lll'lSl(ll'I iagaiii sponsored the Girl Guides lmovement, which needs no explan- iutioii. However, I would. at this time. like to ask all mothers to en- lcoiirage their girls to join the Girl Guides. also any member who has spare time to devote some of it to lhclp this organization. The three important factors in the life of any lyoung person, are the church, home laud school. The guide movement -contributes a unifying actloii. bringing them into a progi'cssl'.'c iprogram of spiritual. moral. mental and physical development, His tlloliness Pope Pius XII received a 1Guide Pilgrimage in 1933 and call- ed them "His very beloved little daughters". This is why the Catli- olic Women's League should do ev- erything' they can to help this won- derful work. This summer our provincial con- vention will be held in Summer- side. so this year all members will have an opportunity to attend its sessions. I hope that all members will plan their summer activities so that they will have free time when the convention is held, to

of all members will be needed. Later on during this meeting the annual election of officers will take place. I hope that all persons ii ho may be tiomlliated or elected to any office will accept in a spirit of SN"- vice because we are doing an ini- portant work.

In order for our sub-divisioii to continue to be successful, all nieiii- bers must be ready to accept their share of the burden. In this regard I might say that all members should accustom themselves to speaking from the floor and taking part in all discussions. The meet- ing is the place where opinions should be expressed. notlbefore or after. If only a few regularly Inke port in discussions. oilr decisions may not indicate the wishes of the members in general. I would again like to welcome all new members who have joined in the year of 1950, and ask them to try to attend all meetings regularly. and to en- courage their friends to join in this noble work. Every one of us should be proud to be a member of the Catholic Women's League. When we think that there are 950 sub-divisions, what an inspiring picture; 75.000 Canzidiali Catholic women joined togctlicr to serve the needs and interests of their parishes. communities. and Can- nda.

At this time it. might be well for us to pause a moment in remem- brance of two of our departed members. who passed away during the past year -- Mrs. W.B. Mac- Neill and Misti Ida Dawson. In conclusion. Women's League owe much thanks to the Knights of Columbus for al-

nnd facilities; and would suggest that a. letter of thanks be written expressing our appreciation. I also wish to extend thanks to Mr. and Mrs. George Olscamp for their kind hospitality in the past.

May God give ils grace to con- tinue our good work. to work side by side with our spiritual director for God and Canada. May I again express to you my incere apprecia- tion for your generous co-opera- tion.

I think the Catholic.
