Mr Halsall has used his expertise to pre­ serve for, posterity over 1,000 slides taken by the Shaws, father and son, between 1900 and 1913 for their post­ card business.


Members enjoyed a fascinating visual insight into the tranquil, rural life of the Ribble Valley and surrounding areas at the begin­ ning of the 20th century, with many members keen to add their oivn com­ ments to the stories the photographs told.


Mrs . R i ta Webb thanked Mr Halsall for his presentation.


A competition for a piece of local histo­ ry was won by Mrs Webb, with Mrs P a t Mahlich and Mrs Joan Porter as rimners-up.


Hostesses for the evening were Mrs Ann Askew and Mrs Margaret Baines.

ing. She welcomed a guest and possible new member, Jenny Gatty. Other ladies in the village are welcome to consider joining especially at this the beginning of the WI year.
