ACTIVITIES AT
THE HOSTESS
HOUSE

By E. E.

On Friday evening through the
kindness of the R.A.F. the film
“Desert Victory” was shown in
the recreational hall, followed by
a most successful dance. Another
dance this Friday — so be sure to
come!

Miss Carlisle had a very quiet
afternoon in the canteen on Satur-
day, but, during the evening Mr.
and Mrs. Robbins and their help-
ers were busy, their special sand-
wiches in great demand, as usual;
and over in the kitchen of the
Hostess House some of the W.D.’s
of the M.T. section had taken con-
tro] of the stove, where wonderful
golden brown waffies were turned
and tossed with the dexterity of
old hands, and the maple syrup
came straight from the farm back
east in Ontario to Pat Bay, and
then, on. to. the Hostess House
came the syrup and the “makings”
and ‘six W.D.’s ready.to turn and
pancakes amid: lots of
laughter and:fun.

Lecture On Burns

The few who were privileged to
hear Dr. Black’s lecture on burns
last Friday evening were sorry so
many members were unable to at-
tend.

Dr. Black made his lecture so
simple for all laymen to absorb
and had drawn diagrams of the
skin and its functions, which must
have entailed much valuable time.
The lecture was educational not
only for A.R.P. but at home.
Many humorous anecdotes were
introduced.

Dr. Black has promised a repeat
in the near future. Don’t miss it.
