UNWLA Highlights So we are not far off from the summer pastime. We are closing the season with last meetings and gatherings. It will be w orth while if our Branches should plan picnics or outings for summer time. It will bring together friends who probably m eet only infrequently and may acquaint those who did not know one another. L et’s remember that our patriotic w ork and interest should not be interrupted completely on account of hot summer. A t the last m eetings of the spring season let us make a brief ac count of w hat we have done, and achieved, up to now in 1957. This will com fort us during the vacation time and w e surely will start anew our activities w ith more satisfaction in autum n. And then we shall begin with the detailed plan of our w ork in the coming seasons of the fall and w inter. L et’s do som ething we didn’t pay much heed to before! Do we know exactly the num ber of the members of our Branch, and w hether it has increased, or not? Maybe we have already joined the movement to win 500 new members for every Regional Council, and thus part of it for our Branch during the time prior to the next Convention of UN- WLA. If so, let us stick to our determ ination. Otherwise, let us find out, in tim e of our rest or traveling, how to attain this goal. and baked all this tem pting and delicious U krainian food. Tea, torte and “babka” were served and greatly enjoyed. The program was closed with “K w itka D ribnaya” sung by one of the m embers.
