INSTITUTE NEWS
The theme of the
hWvembermeeting of the
Pine Lake Women's
Institute was Citizenship .
Educational Convenor
Dorothy Herbert pres-ented
a paper on the
Rights and Responsibili-ties
of a Citizen .
Our nation is made up of
numerous races requiring
co- operation in social
membership that extends
from the community to
the nation to the world . As
a citizen and good
neighbour, we must
respect and consider the
needs of others, have an
awareness of government
policy and contribute to
our society to the best of
our ability .
Mrs. Kay Lawrence
conducted a quiz of
Canadian facts and
events, so many of which
we take for granted .

New Constitution" tied
into the discussion . The
branch forwarded a letter
to Hon . Connie Osterman
supporting the allocation
of lottery- generated funds
in greater amount to
cultural activities .
Three members
recently attended a
workshop on Teaching
Adults, co- sponsored by
Red Deer Constituency
