Outdoor Wee
kends Are
Enjoyed In Lourentions
Shirley McNeill has an interest- ing article in the Montreal Gaz- ette entitled “Hills Provide Girls with New Friends." The girls re-
ferred to are Miss Suzanne Pal- mer, daughter of Judge Harold Palmer and Mrs. Palmer, Char- lottetown, and Miss JOY G‘_>1'd°P-
The latter visited this city in the interests of the Dupont firm- sales promotion department. The Montreal write-up is accompan- ied by a photograph oF Suza.-nne and Joy setting out for a week- end in the Laurentians. The fol- lowing is the article:
One of the best ways for new comers to make friends in Mon- treal is to “take to the hills. ’
That at least, has been the an- swer for a group of girls W119 have been making weekend ski- ing jaunts to the Laurentians for the past two seasons.
It all started. said Joy Gordon and Suzanne Palmer — the organ- izers of the ski weekends-“from a brief meeting over a tea table in a Montreal boarding house."
Finding they shared an enthus- iasm for outdoor weekends. they decided to do something about It. Suzanne rented a “ski house" in Ste. Adele and from there the plan mushroomed. “It was a mat- ter of knowing a few girls who knew others. Now we have 14 girls in on the plan,” said Su- zanne.
Joy and Suzanne come from op- posite sides of Canada —— Joy 15 a Vancouverite and Suzanne is from Prince Edward Island. “The other girls are from Places Wat‘ tered all across the country.” FULL HOUSE
The ski house in Ste. Adele can’t house 14 girls on a single weekend, but this is a problem that doesn’t arise. “A lot of the «girls are nurses and stewardess- os which means they can’t get away every weekend. But we 31-
But the ski weekends didn't just happen. It took considerable organization and Joy and Suzanne have taken the responsibility. “We even held meetings — two in fact — before we started." Some of the matters they had to consider were rent, food and taking car of their ski house. The rent for the Nov. 1 to April 30 period is about $75 for each of the girls.
“One of our responsibilities," Suzanne laughed, “is to make the rules. And if we don’t like them we change them."
The rules, she admitted, are kept to a minimum and involve only essential things such as kn ledge how to turn off the heat. and where to put the garbage. The girls don’t worry about transportation. That, they consid- er is an individual responsibility aand they said, “there's always someone going up who will give us a ride. If any of us can't get a lift, there are the trains and the busses.”
The house itself has “all the important it is just a few min-

CHARLOTTETOWN
Mrs. E. V. Bell
The a n n u al meeting of the Queen Mary Needlework Guild was held at the home of the vice president, Mrs. George DeB1ois and opened with the Lord’s Pray er. A large attendance marked the completion of 40 years of un- interrupted work for charitable purposes.
Present at the meeting was Mrs. F. W. Hyndman, wife of the Lieutenant Governor, who grac- iously consented to act as Pat- roness. Regrets were expressed at the absence of the honorary president, Mrs. F. E. Smallwood and the president, Mrs. H. E. Miller.
The resignation of Mrs. Miller was before the meeting. Thanks andappreciation was voiced for Mrs. Mi1ler’s many years of ser- vice and interest in all phases of the Guild’s work. With this vote of appreciation was incorporated an expression of deep sympathy for the retiring president in the great loss she has sustained in the death of her husband, whose assistance to and interest in the guild, during his wif:’s term of of- fice was evident at all times. Since the meeting bereavement has also come to the Honorary President, Mrs. Smallwood, who since the inception of the Society has been one of its most valued members. Dr. Smallwood was un- tiring in helping to pack, trans- port and post overseas parcels, and in many other ways was of great assistance to the work. _The correspondence was of .a very interesting nature. Several ‘letters had -been received from
utes from the ski slopes at St.
,Adele. “We put on our skis at the
front door and in five minutes we’re on the hill”, Joy said.
Most of the girls leave Mont- real behind Friday nights and
‘spend all day Saturday skiing.
“After _a' whole day in the out- doors, one can imagin what our appetites are like,” they laughed. “We have our one big meal of the weekend on Saturday nigh " The girls share the expenses for food as they do tlie work of preparing it. Suzanne estimated the cost was about $1.50 a week- end for each girl. “We don’t buy the most expensive steaks, but we like good plain food —— and lots of it.”}
' How do they arrange the cook- ing duties? “We don’t," the girls admitted. “The person who gets hundrey first usually starts the meals. And we have a standing rule that whoevxer cooks, doesn't have to wash dishes." ’ Social life is as important a pattern of the siding wmkend as -skiing itself Saturday night has become “dropping-in” night at the girls Laurentian house, Sun- day too, is a day for calling. Both Suzanne and Joy have found their weekends in the coun- try have given them a chance to mee' t “a tremendous number of people." And they’ve improv- ed their skiiing as well . Both in sales promotion, the girls travel a great deal to all parts of the country. “But we still find time for everything. The more things we do, the more we seem to have time for,” they agreed.

It was with deep regret that the Guild lost 3 members during the year, Mrs. Murdock MacKinnon, a charter member, Miss Ethel Hodgson and Mrs. E. A. Large. Notes of sympathy to their fam- ilies and greetings to members, unable to attend through illness were authorized to be sent.
A special vote of -/grateful thanks was passed to Mrs. T. W. L. Prowse who during her time at Government House had pro- v i d e d gracious hospitality on many occasions to the Guild
A delightful interlude followed when Mrs. W. G. Bruce gave an informal and charming account of her visit, while in London to the Queen Mary Maternity Hos- pital. She desoribed many inter- esting details of that Home for which the members have worked for many years. I
To the great satisfaction of the meeting Mr. E. V. Bell consent- ed to allow her name to stand for nomination to the vacant office of president. With this addition a slate of officers was elected by the casting of a ballot.
In June, 1957 after the. display of the season's work at the home Of the secretary, 8, large consign- ment of children’s clothes was sent to the Prince Edward Island Protestant Orphanage and an at- tractive collection of knit-ted gar- ments for babies was posted ov- erseas to the Queen Mary Ma- ternity Hospital -and for distribu- tion to deserving cases by the London Branch. _
The usual much appreciated in- vitation was received to the an- nual meeting of the London Branch in March. As one from the province was in England at the time, Mrs. E. A.

These were later packed in 3 cartons by Mrs. F. A. S. Jones and sent through the kind offic- es of the Unitarian Service Com- mittee of Canada, whose outstan- ding representative, IDr. Lotta Hitchmanova, in the summer of 1957 at Prince of Wales College
