Buckland
Women's Institute
The usual monthly meeting was held in the School on Wednesday evening, when the President, Miss N. Pigg, was in the chair. Nearly all members were present.
The meeting opened with a demonstration on silk flower making by Mrs Codrington, of Great Hormead Bury, who exhibited a gorgeous assortment of her own making.
Envious eyes were cast upon these, and the demonstrator was cordially thanked before leaving.
Business having been dealt with, tea was enjoyed. Then followed a small "Exchange and Mart." An amusing sketch, entitled "Impossible Perkins," was given by Miss Gilbey (hon. secretary), Mrs Tott and Mrs Masters, and these ladies were also heartily thanked.
The singing of the National Anthem terminated a very pleasant evening.
[Transcriber note: The demonstrator's name is clearly spelled as Codrington, but a Mr Coddington of Hormead Bury was a speaker at Hormead WI in February 1926, so I'm not sure what the correct surname spelling is.]
