Mrs. Melvln Howie speaking from a viewpoint of a busy housewife with two young daughters stressed that women should cvnluate their time and If they .are definitely In terested In community affairs will find spare hours In some project that will both benefit the commu nity In which she lives and which win ricniy reward ner.
