Many changes at Erland Lee Homestead Don’t think you’ve “seen it all” just because you visited the Erland Lee (Museum) Homestead last year. Thanks to a recent “antiquing” expedition. led by museum secretary- treasurer lrene Weber, many unusual and interesting items dating back to the late 18505 and early 19005, have been added to the historic Stoney Creek homestead. They include two different types of lemon squeezers, a three-piece set of blue Nestor pattern glassware, a knife cleaner, 3 wicker basket, a Betty Lamp, a corn bread mold, a set of “clappers” (castinettes), a saw set, an oxen separator, wooden funnel and a walnut table. In addition, the museum received donations of an antique wooden trouser press with stretcher and an eight-gallon crockery dash churn. Also acquired during 1985 were two rollâ€"away beds for use by com- mittee members during special events, two large textile storage boxes and 500 sheets of acid-free tissue paper to protect historic documents and other materials to be stored. Funds were received from branches, districts and areas to purchase arti- facts and antiques and for the follow- ing other projects: Perth North Dis- trict provided money to pay for a new display cabinet upstairs in the Drive House while Greenock WI, Nassaga- waya WI, Villa Nova WI and Stoney Creek Charter WI donated money towards the building of a podium cabinet to hold the In Memoriam book. Zimmercraft of Caistor Cen- tre made the cabinet as well as a lectern stand for the museum’s regâ€" istration book. A new hostess has also been welâ€" comed to the museum. June Coombs. her husband, Wayne, and their two sons now reside in- the apartment at the Erland Lee Homestead. A bay window has been added to the apartâ€" ment and “the interior has been freshly painted and reâ€"carpeted in neutral colors,» Meanwhile. Mary Miller is retiring as Chairman of the museum.

WI, match! ti' Toronto in November!!! Jeanne Davies is a active FWIO member up in Thunder Bay. Indeed. it seems almost every time the phone rings, her husband has to explain that Jeanne is at" one Wl function or another. So, when Jeanne was invited to enter a soft sculpture competition last year, she decided to create something a little different, that would reflect a bit of her personality and lifestyle. The result is a striking "look-alike". who bears the uncommon name “Winnie Is At." The fist two letters of Winnie‘s name are in honor oi the WI â€" and Winnie wears old-fashioned eye glasses. white satin bab} shoes and jewelery that were worn by Jeanne a few decades ago. We’re not sure where “Winnie Is At“. this week, but she sure was a hit when she made a guest appearance at the FWlO annual meeting in Bicentennial wall-hanging relocated As a l984 bicentennial project. FWIO crafted a classic wall hanging which they presented to the Province of Ontario. This gift was hung in the legislative buildings outside the third floor en» trance to the public gallery. Now, the entrance to the public gallery is on the fourth floor, and as a result, the third floor area is not included on any usual tour. It was, therefore, necessary to relocate the wall-hanging. After the new Lieutenant Gover~ nor, Lincoln Alexander, viewed and admired the FWIO wall hanging, he requested it for his suite within the Legislative Buildings â€" where it now hangs. WI groups wishing to \ ieu ihc \\ Ltll hanging while touring the Legislam e Buildings must make Sflt’t'l/lt" pf'rtlr nrrangemems. The \ ieuing would be subject to previous engagements. 50,000 brochures were distributed The joint brochure “A Da_\ of Discovery“ was finalized through the efforts of this committee and the Oti- tario Agricultural Museum. 50.000 brochures were printed and diiidcd among the three participants: On~ tario Agriculture Museum: FWIO and FWIC. 19
