BANGOR.
The club house movement began in
America indeed, in the world-about
Is years ago. The members OF the
Bay View reading circle OF Bangor
have become tired of sitting on hard,
straight back chairs in some cherries
lodge room with only platform and
roll of red carpet to call their own,
and are longing for a permanent
abiding place which should have the
comforts of a home. BY looking
closely at their horoscope | see them
in their new home, a quaint reproduc-
ton of an old Spanish mission with an
enclosed veranda and a great entrance
hall extending almost the length OF
the building, the beauty of which Is
enhanced by a profusion OF vines, ana
this ideal place will always be one OF
the centers of attraction and hospital
ity found in Van Buren, county.
SOUTH HAVEN.

hood nobody will be surprised to hear
of women founding an emergency
hospital. The Scott club of South
Haven having the largest membership
Of any club in the county, can easily
predict for them the successful man

will be in constant charge OF trained
nurses and physicians They Will
have visiting and relief committees
who will look after strangers and give
them welcome-a boon 70 any town TO
which unfortunate victims may turn
their steps ! feel assured the atmos'
phere of this new home of the Scott
club. where calm, quiet restfulnes'
/, will reign. will receive uuboundec
praise from her sister clubs for devils
ing a plan giving relief and comtor
to suffering humanity.
