Procrastination

Procrastination

With the exception of the farcical exhibition of resignation and counter-resignation which was the main feature of the early period of its term of office. Executive earnestly applied itself to the many problems facing the association and for the most part performed its duties very successfully. Only criticism of their recent meetings is the practice of holding matters over. This procrastination was particularly obvious when Executive twice put off the co-opting of a woman committee member to replace Miss Barnett.

This appointment could well have been made six weeks ago and the appointee could have been of great assistance during the difficult and trying period of enrolling when, with most of the male members in military camp, and the remaining women working, the brunt of the work fell onto the shoulders of the office secretary. E.U. members who offered their assistance and others. It is to be hoped than in future Executive will remember that action is always preferable to procrastination.
