 One of the most delightful meeting of the year

lowed by picnic supper. The arrangmcnts were nrde
by fire. Bullock and her Conservation Committee, and
was first schedulefi to be held at the resevoir.
Due to the rainy cold day, the old stable at Castlew

The feeling mi the club was that we were all taking
some part either in the Red Cross, or the work
with refugee children, but that we would like to
save seed. It was moved by fire. Bullock and sec-

 

 ended by hrs. choneld that subject to the ap-
proval of the fifinance 00mmittee, that our
