Because of the diiiiculty in getting help with teas, sales and raffles, the executive committee decided to suggest the change, for a trial one- year period, to the membership at a Fall mid-term luncheon provided by the school. It was voted on and approved that another luncheon be held at Winter mid-term and fees increased to S5 to provide income since money usually provided by teas etc. would not be forthcoming. At the second and final luncheon, projects to be undertaken were approved as follows: 1. Cheque to the headmaster for carpet, credence table, bible etc. for the chapel - 545000. 2. Prizes: Bursary increased to S35 0.00. Mothers' Guild Prizes for Junior School and Middle School - Sl5.00. Thanks to donations of furniture and a great deal of time bv members of the guild, badly-worn chairs, tables, etc., were replaced in the prefects' common room and a thank you letter from the head boy expressed the students' gratitude for the improvement. Hasti-notes showing Ashbury's Chapel were on sale at the luncheon. It was announced they would be available at various school functions during the year as well as through the guild convener.
