128 THE STORY OF THE U.F.O. 



and also were the first to take steps to enlist 

 their interest. Mrs. Frank Webster of Cam- 

 bray presented the case for the young people so 

 effectively that she was appointed one of a com- 

 mittee to bring in a report on how best to form 

 a young people's branch of the U.F.O. While, 

 as convener of this committee, she was consider- 

 ing what to do, there came to her the report of a 

 committee of Alberta women on the Young 

 People's Department of their work. After 

 studying it carefully, she wrote out a draft con- 

 stitution adapted to conditions in Ontario which 

 she submitted to Head Office for consideration, 

 and at a directors' meeting of the U.F.O. held in 

 March it was provisionally adopted. 



Shortly before this Mrs. Webster was in 

 Northern Ontario holding a series of meetings 

 and amongst other places she visited Peniel. A 

 large number of ladies and young people turned 

 out to hear her, to whom she outlined the aims 

 and operation of the proposed Young People's 

 Movement. It appealed so strongly to all 

 present that, although the draft constitution had 

 not yet been adopted by the directors, they 

 determined forthwith to take action. Thus, 

 at Peniel that evening in early March, 1920, the 

 first United Farm Young People's Club was 

 organized and has continued to do splendid 

 work ever since.
