crockery almost every year. We say thank you to Mrs. Curry, may
God bless you and give you health and strength. We think of you
with sincere gratitude in our hearts. This hut will be named The
Curi'y Hut.
I urge the delegates to help further the interest in the handi-
work group. I feel sure that those that make an effort to attend
will both enjoy and benefit during that period.
It is with deep reverence I mention the passing of one of our
Honorary Members, Mrs. Ingiridur Jonsson, who died at her home
in Winnipeg on April 26th last. May God bless her memory.
I bid all the delegates and visitors welcome to this convention
and trust you will benefit by and enjoy the sessions.
Respectfully submitted,
FJOLA GRAY,
