up to date. A ruling was made that Branches organized prior to the First
of August of any year, are eligible for Provincial dues the following- January.
A duplicate Certificate of Incorporation was granted Whitelaw W. I.,
which had lost their original one by fire; and a Certificate of Incorporation
was granted Rocky Mountain House W. I. which had changed its name from
Lochearn W. I.
It was found that the resolution passed at the 1937 Convention, asking
that the incoming President be allowed to attend the Federated Board
instead of the outgoing President, was proving awkward for the Federated
Body in naming officers. It was also found necessary for the Council to pay
the Federated dues of $ 400.00 instead of the $ 200.00 as voted by the
Convention, in order to have representation from Alberta at the Federated
Board meeting.
The members of the Council next met on March 5th and 6th, 1939, in
the Alberta Hotel, Red Deer. A resolution to unite Rocky Mountain- Pineher
Creek and Macleod Constituencies, which had been submitted by Standoff
W. I., was endorsed i f Branches and Conveners in both Constituencies approved.
Correspondence from Mrs. J . McGregor, President of the Federated
Women's Institutes of Canada, regarding Convention dates, was read and
after all details were explained and discussed, it was agreed that the wishes
of the F. W. LC. Board be met and our Provincial Convention be held in
October instead of May. A programme for our Convention was drafted and
plans were made for the place of meeting and duties assigned to various
officers, to carry out these plans and work during Mrs. Stewart's absence in
Scotland.
There are at present 36 Constituencies in the Province with 218 active
Branches and 37 W. I. Girls' Clubs, as reported by Constituency Conveners.
Since last Convention 27 Institutes have been organized. They are as
follows, with date of organization:
Sundial at Turin, June 2nd, 1937.
Lady Tweedsmuir, at Millet, June 5th, 1937.
