nirable paper of Foundation Build
ing" She laid great stress on the fact
that a good foundation was a great
safeguard, and to illustrate the point
told of tha time during the big flood
of 1903 where she was imprisoned at
I he ON North EgH1<Gnn street
surrounded by the raging waters. As
she watched buildings float by and
houses undermined the only ray Of
comfort she had was when she re-
/ WONDERED that the mason who had
| laid the foundation of the house had
told her that II was an unusually good
and strong one. These words, she
said, helped her through that trying
time So it is in life that good
foundation is the best start. Governor
Hoch was expected at this meeting
but was unable to be present and Mr..
