In order that the work being accomplished by the Local Council of Fast Kootenay, be more widely known throughout our District and surrounding ones, we forward you a copy of our report which has been sent to tne Annual Meeting of the National Council, to be held in Toronto, May 27th to 31st. This report covers a space of little over three months. In accordance with a suggestion of Her Excellency Lady Aberdeen, we held a public meeting in Donald on the Sllst of January, with a view to forming a Local Council. It was unanimously decided that one be formed, and officers were elected with Mrs. Molson Spragge as President. The Ladies' Aid, English Church, Mrs. McKay, President, nnd the Ladies' Aid, Presbyterian Church, Mrs. Glassford,*; President, -have affiliated with the Local Counoil. The Catholics being few in number have no society, but some of the members of that Church have joined as workers. The Council has endeavored to originate some movements of practical utility, and the following will, we trust, mature:���A Private School, A New Hospital, and "Tbe Pioneer Circle" of the King's Daughters. The former is a pressing necessity, as the public school is altogether unsuitable for children of tender years. The Council is in correspondence with a view to engaging a teacher. A new hospital is also urgently required, as the existing C.P.R. Hospital does not provide any accommodation for women, nor has it any modern requirements. The Local Council has established a branch of "The Pioneer Circle" of the King's Daughters, whicli, though just started, seems to meet with great success, In our next report we hope to have a record of what we have done as well as what we hope to do, but Donald is a small place, besides there are not the same opportunities for work that one finds in a' city, and our L.C. is only three months old. ' Three public and four executive meetings in connection with the L.C. have been held. The following are the officers of the executive: President���Mrs. Molson Spragge. Vice President-Mrs. F. E. Hobbs. Treasurer���Mrs. Beasley. Rec. Secy.���Mrs. Bolton. Cor. Secy.���Miss Steen. In submitting our report wc have much pleasure in stating th.it so far our efforts have met with success, and we trust that Donald, B.C., in the future will have good cause to bless the day that the Local Council was formed iu our little Mountain Town. O. Steen Corresponding Secretary. Donald, B.C., May 17th, 1395, next at 8 o'clock. The business of the meeting will be the election of officers for 1895-96, and the appointing of two delegates to represent the club at the annual meeting of the Manitoba Branch of the U.C.C.C. A full attendance is particularly requested. or Interest to tho Ladlos. Miss Fletcher, dressmaker arrived from Enderby on Saturday last and will make Golden her headquarters. Miss Fletcher is now ready for business, ladies requiring anything in this line will do well to call ou her, satisfaction guaranteed. Oddfellows' Ball at Donald.
