GArden 8-2404 or 8-2495 AIMNUAL CHURCH MEETING There were 29 members present Bt the annual meeting of the Co- tuit Federated Church held Thurs- day evening, Feb. 27, in Bruce Hall following a covered dish supper solicited and served by the male members of the Joint Committee. Calvin Crawford , moderator, called the meeting to order at 8 p.m., which was opened with a prayer by the Rev. Stephen H. Smith. The written reports of the officers of the various organizations, com- piled and printed hy the Publica- tions Committee were voted to be accepted with the exception ot the Nominating Committee which was acted upon separately. All persons nominated by the Nominating Committee which con- sisted of Mrs. Walter Scudder, Mrs. Alfred Nickerson and Mrs. James Irwin were elected by the meeting and will receive due noti- fication of their election. Mrs. Ed- ward Moore and Mrs. Donald Hig- i iiia had been appointed by the Congregationalists to serve three years on the Joint Committee ot the church. . Robert F. Hayden, member ot the Boy Scout Committee, spoke on the work of the Boys Scouts dur- ing the past year. He reported that clue to the ages of the boys, scout- ing In Cotuit is at the same stage as it was five years ago with more youngsters In the Tenderfoot and Second Class stages than First Class Scouts. The scout committee feels that scouting in Cotuit is in good hands being under the mastership of Ber- nard Thompson, who has become scoutmaster, growing, learning and teaching the principles of scout- ing to these boys just as the former scoutmaster James Irwin began Ave years ago and took the boys to the Explorer age and j beyond. As the words "Flower Commit- tee" were spoken by the modera- tor in calling for the reports there was a spontaneous applause show- ing the appreciation of the splen- did work of that committee with r William Todd as chairman. At the suggestion of the Joint Committee the meeting voted to eliminate communion during the .summer months and held the first Sunday every other month during the year. It was voted that the Joint Com- mittee take charge of having an Old Home Week during the sum- mer when former members and clergy are specifically Invited to attend church and ensuing ac- tivities. A vote of thanks was tendered to the Finance Committee after its chairman, Manuel Robellq, explain- ed various Items In the | 1 3,G49 budget and the meeting voted to raise and appropriate the budget as presented by the Finance Committee. Questions on the article in the town warrant asking that the town sell the old school property to the ~ church were clarified by Robert Hayden , chairman of the trustees of the Methodist Church. The article met with the approval of flWAflK W, V«. the meeting after It was fully ex- plained. Again this year it was brought up that the church have a spring cleaning which would Include win- dows, closets, cupboard s, etc. which do not come under the heading of janitorial service. The feeling was that the church buildings are kept In such excellent condition by Earle MacDowell, the custodian, that a rip-roaring spring cleaning was not entirely necessary. And again it was turned over to the Joint Committee for action . BIRTH ANNOUNCEMEN T David Melhako was at the Mid- dleboro Circle when the call came over his car radio, "It's a boy, Dave".
