In 1927 one hundred and ninety-two articles were sold. while in 1928. there were only 123.

So let us remember that. we havoa great deal of com- petition. v All members of the Women's Insti- tute. have the privilege of sending one rut: at a time to the Exchange and a commission of 10% is charged ior selling and handling. Considerable interest among mem- bers is being shown in making of the popular booked cushions, hooked curtains. and home weaving. I wish that we might interest more along these lines.
