cation Society recently given at the
First Congregational Church by Mrs

esting, instructive and impressive pre-
sentation of the splendid work of the
State Board of Child and animal pro

delighted with 1t, and | am sure it has

be heard in every community in the
state"

present, and every one was delighted
with both the address and the pictures.
