PRESIDENT'S REPORT:
First of all I want to welcome everyone to our 27th annual
meeting. You know, when you think about it, 27 years is
quite a long time for a group to stay together and be as
active as we are. Unfortunately, each year we lose
valued members and the past year has been no exception.
Our sympathy goes out to those who have been affected in
this way.
You will find in your annual reports, the minutes of the
26th annual meeting, as well as committee reports, branch
reports, etc., which I would like you to read at your
convenience - and so speed up this business meeting.
My husband and I had the pleasure of a visit with our first
national president on a trip to the west coast following
last year's annual, and though I did not know Deane Russell
and his wife previously, we were made to feel most welcome
and thoroughly enjoyed our visit. Of course, the real
purpose behind the visit was to present Deane with his
Past President's pin.
I have noticed that our membership has stayed at the same
figure for the past couple of years, which I think means
we need some new blood in the Society. So, let each branch
make a concentrated effort to gain new members in the coming
year, including some young folk who would help the older
ones carry the load. One of the benefits of belonging to
the Society and accepting positions on the executive council
is the opportunity for friendship and association with so
many people, one would otherwise never meet - people of
outstanding ability and dedication to the Society.
There have been four executive council meetings during the
year and through the co-operation of all members of the
council in carrying out their assigned duties, it has seemed
a very easy year - for which I sincerely thank them. I
would especially like to thank my two retiring secretaries
for all their efforts on my behalf.
Staffing the booth at the C.N.E. in the Arts, Crafts and
Hobbies building proved to be a problem in 1976. However,
Page 3
- 3 -
the schedule was finally completed and it was once more a
successful event. We have been invited to participate as a
guest exhibitor again in 1977. I would ask everyone (who
possibly can) to volunteer to help promote good craftsman-
ship in leather; this can be done by your willingness to
demonstrate part of the time the day you are present in the
booth. Promoting good leathercraftsmanship is the prime
purpose behind our being given the privilege to participate.
The opportunity to sell articles is a bonus.
We are planning our 5th Biennial Exhibition in 1978. When
these plans have been finalized, you will be notified. You
can start thinking about your project now and be ready when
the time comes.
There have been three bulletins published this year with
Toronto, Woodstock and Barrie being responsible for them.
And, Belleville is now working on the fourth.
Let's work together to make 1977-78 a productive year for
our Society.
Respectfully submitted,
MINUTES OF THE 26th ANNUAL MEETING APRIL 30, MAY 1 AT
WEST PLAINS UNITED CHURCH, BURLINGTON, ONTARIO.
This annual meeting was hosted by the Hamilton Branch.
The President, May Corbett, called the meeting to order and
introduced Hope Drysdale, the President of the host branch.
Hope welcomed members and guests to the 26th Annual Meeting
of C.S.C.L. and pointed out that this year would mark the
beginning of our next 25 years of accomplishments.
The minutes of the previous Annual Meeting were accepted
as circulated on a motion by Phyllis Brown, seconded by
Fred Brown.
A motion to adopt the various reports as recorded in the
Annual Report was made by Jean Newton, seconded by
Gladys Riddell.

The President, May, thanked all those who had acted as her
Executive during the past year, for their loyal support
at meetings and for their assistance at events such as
the C.N.E. Sale and Leather '76. She also thanked those
who represented C.S.C.L. at meetings of affiliated organ-
izations.
Correspondence -
(1) A letter of thanks was received from the minister of
West Plains United Church for the invitation extended
to him.
(2) A letter from Fred Brown in his capacity as manager of
the Arts, Crafts and Hobbies building at the C.N.E.
He acknowledged our acceptance of the invitation to
participate at the C.N.E. again this year, and reminded
us that demonstrations are a valuable and important
part of any booth.
(3) A thank you letter from Carol McLean who was presented
with the Best Craftsman Award at Leather '76.
(4) The International World Craft Council will meet
July 6 to 12th, 1976 in Oaxtepec, Mexico. There both
traditional and modern crafts will be displayed and
demonstrated. In conjunction with the above a photo-
graphy competition is being held with prizes for both
black/white and colour slides.
(5) A letter from the Canadian Craft Council, Ottawa, with
a draft of a letter which they recommend each craft-
person write to their M.P. This letter would encourage
the M.P. to endorse a motion to do away with Federal
Sales Tax on craft supplies for those craftsmen selling
directly to retail outlets or those earning $3,000.00 a
year or more from the sale of crafts. Viola Harris
was able to enlarge on this concept for us, so that we
could better understand the principles involved.
The highlight of the morning came when the Weston Trophy
was awarded to the Hamilton Branch. Beula Reynolds,
Vice President, C.S.C.L. (in charge of branches) gave a
brief outline of the origins of the trophy and made the
presentation to Hope Drysdale, President of the Hamilton
Branch, who accepted on behalf of her membership and those
directly involved in the making of the prize-winning
articles.

The appraisal comments on the articles submitted for the

There were two Associate Awards made by Anne Hook, Chairman
of Council of Fellows, to Hope Drysdale and Dorothy Stanton.
Dorothy Stanton of Forest, Ontario was awarded the Zalitis Pin
for the highest marks as an Associate entrant.
Irva Ford, assisted by Olivia Smith, made the presentation of
certificates and ribbons for those whose work was shown at

Announcement - there was a change in the demonstration
program with Frank Torry covering ashtrays 2:30 to 3:30.
An invitation to visit Woodstock for the next Annual was
made by Beula Reynolds, President of that branch.
The date for the
next Executive Council meeting was set for the 28th of May. A panel of experts led by Fred Brown then
considered a series of questions related to leather that had been submitted by attending members. The
difficulty of obtaining good metal findings, to combine with leather, and the scarcity of 5/64 lacing
were discussed with some suggested sources given.
A method to remove the "talc" that rises to the
surface of split suedes was given - brush dry cornmeal onto the surface and when the suede is brushed
off or vacuumed, the white talc should disappear too. A light spray of silicone should prevent this
from reappearing.
A motion to adjourn the meeting was made by Ruth Haig. Those assembled enjoyed a
luncheon provided by the church ladies, followed by an afternoon of demonstrations.
Dinner was served by the ladies of West Plains United
Church.
Irva Ford presented the speaker for the evening, Huldy
Gutekunst from Buffalo. Huldy gave a very interesting
and challenging talk.
The evening was pleasantly concluded with entertainment by the June Sommervile youthful choir of bell ringers. Later
the Golden Seniors' ten member orchestra was a delight and had all toes tapping.

PUBLICITY REPORT
This past year saw some C.S.C.L. members journey to the
World Crafts Council in Mexico, carrying our name abroad.
It was a delightful experience for those attending and a
petition was submitted asking that leather be included at
the 1978 W.C.C. in Japan. We felt that the lack of leather
demonstrations and programming did nothing to promote the
craft. Our wishes were submitted to the programme co-
ordinator hoping for leather in 1978.
The prospective member's information sheet has been updated
and copies ordered for future use in the hope that it will
explain our Society's aims and purposes.
One other way, to publicize our organization, is by individ-
ual members entering into competitions and promoting fine
leathercraft.
Many branches have had individual displays in their own
areas. One of the most common remarks heard is, "I didn't
know you could do that with leather". It makes one proud
of C.S.C.L.'s teaching standards. Teaching members of
C.S.C.L. also promote both fine leather and the Society in
their classes, and hopefully introduce students to a
branch of C.S.C.L. in which to further their learning.

Publicity (continued)
The enthusiasm with which an individual member talks of his/her organization effects the impact on the general public and this is the very best way to further our cause on a local level - - - by showing our love for the Society and its aims.
Happy Leather Working!
Respectfully submitted,
Carol McLean, F.C.S.C.L.
LIBRARY REPORT 1976-77
The Larmour Memorial Library which began its circulation with 132 books now has 250 books.
These were exchanged three times during the past year.
Last Fall the Library was the recipient of a very special gift from Mr. Deane Russell, a former president of C.S.C.L. This was a valuable book titled "Black Jacks and Leather Bottels". This will be summarized for the Bulletin.
Your committee would appreciate donations of books, titles and suggestions.
The committee for 1976-77 consisted of:
Jessie Little, Chairman
Fred Brown, Treasurer
Anne Hook

BARRIE BRANCH ANNUAL REPORT
Regular meetings of the Barrie branch are held on the
fourth Wednesday of each month at St. Monica's School
on Steel Street, Barrie.
Eight meetings were held in all, with an average attend-
ance of eleven members.
'76-'77 began on September 8, the first of two meetings
in September - strictly business.
September 25th the Barrie branch entertained the Belleville
members at a bottle workshop chaired by Carol McLean. It
was most rewarding, and all expressed pleasure with the
outcome. All shapes and sizes of bottles were covered
making quite a colourful display.
At our October meeting all present made owls for a mobile
as instructed by Kay Naftel.
On November 13th our annual Christmas sale was held at
Georgian Mall and again this was a successful effort by
the members and as a result, our treasury was enriched.
In January we held two meetings as is our custom to make
up for lack of meeting in December. January 5th, Garry Walsh
demonstrated how he made a pattern for a carrying case using
a cassette tape recorder as an example.
On January 26th Clara Cavanagh began instructing the members
in the construction of a ring binder. As this was a lengthy
process, a second workshop was held on February 9th to
complete the project.
Due to stormy weather, only six members attended the
regular February meeting. The program planned was not
available, so a fun evening of sculpting leather was enjoyed
thanks to Sherle Bottrill and Kay Cloughley.
Our annual barbeque was enjoyed by all who attended at the
home of Helen Anderson, Longford Mills in June. The usual
Christmas fun workshop and potluck dinner for members and

spouses was enjoyed at the residence of May and

moving away. We have a membership of 19.
We have had a busy year. Our second meeting each month
took the form of a mini-workshop conducted by a member.
We have made Quinte wallets, slipperette holders, poinsettia
pins, mice key chains and mice bookmarks, name pins, and
also had a demonstration and discussion on sharpening our
tools.
A nice day was had in June, taking the form of a picnic
at Vera Farrara's trailer.

for another enjoyable weekend and workshop on covering
boxes with Clara Cavanagh conducting.
We assisted two days at the C.N.E. Four of our members

tion of general business and a wedding shower for one of our

demonstrating leather lace cutting. Unfortunately, our
January meeting was cancelled, due to most inclement weather.

wallet interiors.

WOODSTOCK BRANCH ANNUAL REPORT
Once again this has been an enjoyable year for the members of
this branch. Since our new programme started in September
1976 we have held, to date, four business meetings, each
followed by a demonstration. The average attendance at each
meeting was approximately 12 people.
A demonstration on Mexican Braided Belts followed the September
meeting and in October we watched John Marsden of Barrie branch
demonstrate Pictorial Carving in his own individual way.
The C.S.C.L.'s donation of $25.00 was used to help finance a
fall workshop on "Boxes with Hinged Lids" conducted by
Clara Cavanagh and attended by about 15 people.
Fred Brown's demonstration on "Removable-type Book Covers"
continued -20
Page 20
Woodstock report (continued)
followed the last business meeting of 1976. Many members enjoyed our annual Christmas party early in December.
Due to bad weather conditions, the first meeting of 1977 and a demonstration in Crinkle Dyeing by Hilda Darbyshire had to be postponed until the early part of March, so our first meeting took place in February with a demonstration on Pictorial Carving by another Woodstock member, Jean Racknor, who specializes in animal and hunting scenes.
Woodstock members helped to staff the C.S.C.L.'s booth at the Canadian National Exhibition and Carol McLean won first prize at the Western Fair, held in London, with her leather sculpture.
As you all know Woodstock branch will play host at the 1977 "Annual" which will be held in Stratford, so, on behalf of the Executive and members of the Woodstock branch, may I say that we all look forward to seeing you all in April.
