nothing better offered, and young things
must have occupation and diversion. 1t
was two years ago. Then I began 70
think about them. And then at last, this
simmer got thirteen girls together and
told them my plan, and then and there
il was in my home, on Jamaica Road
we formed the club, with the thirteen
girls as charter members.
