For Initiation
Members of Ava Temple No. 19,
Pythian Sisters, from St. Helens
joined with Vernonia Temple No.
61 Wednesday evening of last week
for initiation of candidates at the
Vernonia IOOF hall. Officers of
Vernonia Temple filled the chairs
and the Ava Temple staff did the
drill work in cooperation with Ver
nonia staff leaders, Irma Chance
and Faye Davis.
Candidates initiated were Mrs.
Mary Brown for Vernonia Temple
and Mrs. Betty Clark for Ava. The
ceremony was very impressively
done and an excellent turn-out of
Vernonia members augmented by
the 14 from St. Helens and four
from Hillsboro added to the plea
sure of the evening.
Among members from St. Hel
ens was Virginia Patton, most ex
cellent chief of Ava Temple and
among those from Hillsboro was
Clarissa Fox, most excellent chief
of Phoenicia Temple.
All Vernonia officers were pres
ent except Amelia Zamarripa, ex
cellent senior, who has been quite
ill for the past two weeks. The
group was very happy to have Ma
rie Shafer present since she had
missed several meetings due to
illness which necessitated her be
ing out of town.
A report from the rummage sale
showed a good amount raised for
the temple treasury and plans
were made for other fund raising
events in the near future.
Following the meeting, refresh
ments of assorted sandwiches,
cookies and jello were served by
Murel Folken and Rose Miller with
the assistance of other members.
The hostess prize, a potted chry
santhemum, was awarded to Mrs.
Vina Vahl of St. Helens.

until December 14 when election
of officers for the 1967 term will be
held. This meeting will be followed
by the Christmas party with an ex
change of gifts by secret pals.

will bring packages for exchange.

struction, as well as seasonal dem
onstrations and displays of decora
tions. A staff member of The Twig
will show how to make a number
of the Christmas decorations which
were created at their shop and
displayed at their recent open
house. The society has made these
arrangements in order to bring
the opportunity of attending such
an event to those who are interest
ed but find it difficult or impossi
ble to attend out-of-town meetings.
The Twig is noted for its beauti
ful and novel creations. It is hoped
there will be an excellent atten
dance at this event, which promis
es to be an outstanding one for
this community, in order to en
courage more such occasions in
the future. There will be no admit
tance charge. A silver donation
may be made to the society to help
defray the expense of bringing
this showing to Vernonia, with any
excess to go into the fund for the
School Art Festival, to be held lat
er in the year.
It was also decided at the soci
ety’s meeting to hold a Christmas
shop sometime during the first
two weeks of December. The shop
will offer for sale hand-crafted
Christmas decorations and items
suitable for gifts. Details will be
given later.
The meeting was followed by an
interesting demonstration by Gail
Olive of throwing pottery on the
pottery wheel recently acquired by
the local school district. The dem
onstration gave a hint of what a
fascinating hobby pottery making
could be.
