iRohson Evening Group Hears Description

Of Delights Of Hawaii By Mrs. W. Waldia .

Many Robson readers may be
wondering what has become of
thé Evening Group reports, To
them I say that I shall endeavor
to do a more up to date job of
“news-dispensing” in future,

Since our last report, many
pleasant things have been taking
place at our meetings, As’ usual
all members are busily preparing
for the Christmas Sale, scheduled
for Nov, 14, 1953.

Most recent club occupations
were in connection with the R.R.
s. and Dance C i
which featured a turkey supper
last Saturday evening. Group
members helped to serve and
“clear up” and, like all Robson
residents, donated food stuffs.

Our R.R.S.° Kitchen. Improve-
ment Committee, headed by Mrs.
Bro, have been most active. You
may have noticed their work Sat-
urday night, including those bor-
der-print curtains of red and
yellow.

At our.last meeting, the mem-
bers decided to sponsor a project
in aid-of the R.R.S, Community
Hall. It will be a “Summer Print
and Bake Sale, plus Tea,” tenta-
tive date‘of which is June 10.

Mrs. Bob Moffat, our acting
treasurer, has, to our regret re-

| signed that post due to change of

address. But ‘the change is only
to as far away as Castlegar so our
next meeting on April 23 will be
at the Moffatt’s new home and

Board —

we propose to thoroughly ‘ pees
the house.” Mrs, J. Scheupfer has
been elected as treasurer suc-
eceding Mrs, Moffatt,

Among the pleasant things re-
ferred to, Mrs. Bob Sommers, our
old friend and group member,
paid us a visit at our last meeting,
Another welcome guest was Mrs,
Rhind, sister of Mrs, G. Hett, who
is a new resident in our district.

We also very much enjoyed a
description of the warm sunshine,
flowers and other attractions of
Hawaii by Mrs. W. T. Waldie at:
a meeting early last month. Just
to know that in only 11 short
hours from our cold Canadian
shores, we could don swim suits
and get completely and ‘thorough-

Mrs, Waldie told us of all these
things and brought post cards and
color movies to illustrate, She

described the “Wooden Roses of

AFTERNOON
REFLECTIONS,

By Gladys Collinson

There is nothing that tickles a
man more than to have a woman
do exactly as he expects her to,
while driving.

Remember, though this is no
indication whatsoever that he ap-
proves, it merely gives him that
self-satisfied “I know she'd do it
wrong” feeling. ‘

Take on that narrow. piece of
road a while back, I really did an
excellent job of missing most. of| ©
the pot-holes, He didn't say much
at the time, owitig, I suppose, to
the fact of it belng pretty difficult
to speak -while bouncing. (He
spoke plenty later.)

And ‘the time, that a four-ton
truck could so easily have hit us,
except for that clever bit of dod-
ging I did right at the crucial
moment, What if, we did land up
in*the ditch I missed him, didn’t
I? There was a thick silence fol-
lowing this episode, but I, could
tell. by my female‘intuition that
it just wasn’t natural. “Better
polish up your driving, kiddo,”
he finally said, with, that smug-
looking leer of indulgence spread-
ing over his face..“Well,” I snap-
ped, “you don’t have to be polite,
you know.” If there is one thing
