Mrs. Winnie Clemens presented an excellent report on the Area convention which she attended in Kenora. Members were requested to support the Erland Lee Home as well as other projects for helping blind peop- le in other countries. Since Canada is undertaking the use of the Metric system for measurement, it was suggested people should start now to study the system. Mrs. Chris. Morris reported on the Rally she attend- ed in Thunder Bay when she accepted, on behalf of Mrs. Peter Dzioba, the first prize trophy she'd won at the Lakehead Exhibition. A request came from the McCausland Hospital auxiliary for articles in the tuck shop - knitted goods, novelties, homemade candy - which may be given to Mrs. R. G. MacAdam for delivery. Poems and articles on Remembrance Day were read by Mrs. Joe Campbell, Mrs. Tommy Bolan, Mrs. Todesco and Miss Susan Dzioba, with Mrs, Clemens reading the story of the first two Canadians to win the Victoria Cross - Lieut, Alex Dunn in the Crimean War and William Hall, at Lucknow, India. Mrs. C. Todesco presided for the meeting with the minutes and treasurer's report adopted as read by Mrs. Clemens. Mrs. Jack Stokes, whose husband is a MLA, was the guest speaker, describing the life of a politician's family. Mr. Stokes' decision fo enter the field was made after much discussion with the family of how their life would be altered. She described the enjoy- ment of their son Mark in being a page in the Parlia- ment. With some amusement, Mrs. Stokes said although Mr. Stokes' career progresses, hers -- as his private secretary, during his first year in office -- has diminished to that of clipping news items! When they realized the heavy responsibility of the family's welfare on her during Mr. Stokes' absence, she did not have the time. Mrs. Todesco thanked Mrs. Stokes.

Schreiber's new Beauty Salon, the Playgirl, owned, and operated by Sammy Fiorenza, has a most attrac- tive decor in Mediterranean blue and white with accents in gold. The seven recliner chairs, under the dryers, are softly padded, most comfortable. There are four 'setting' chairs and four waiting chairs. Mr. Fiorenza, who trained in Toronto, ten years ago, worked there at the Cedarbrae shopping plaza, in Thunder Bay.at the Salon de Venice, owned and operated his own salon in Miami in the Jefferson Shopping plaza, and managed the Modalena Salon and Barber shop in the Lucayon Beach Hotel in Freeport, Bahamas. Having tried these larger centres, Mr, Fiorenza decided he would be happiest in a small place where he'd know all his customers and thus be able to serve them better. And, of course, being a bachelor, is a certain drawing card!
