  • The Highland Highlights was a newsletter "published every once in a while by the Southern Highland Handicraft Guild." It usually gave members news from the shops, information from and about Guild meetings, tips and reminders, as well as news of general interest. This particular issue dealt with business to be covered at the annual membership meeting in March. In 1945 there was a ban on gatherings of more than 50, so in order to have as many members participate in the business meeting as possible, this newsletter was published. The Guild was planning to incorporate in order to qualify for a General Education Board grant. Members needed to vote on changes to the Guild charter and the "Articles of Incorporation." They were asked to send a representative or a proxy vote in time for the March meeting.
