TOFTE Community CLUB
HOLD Interesting Meeting

Under the working scheme of the
Tofte Community Club, the duty Of
entertaining at the regular monthly
meetings is distributed among the
members, Mr.. and Mrs. L. A. Godin
being the ones to provide the enter
tainment at the last meeting held
last Saturday evening at the Tofte
town hall. The hall was crowded to
it's fullest capacity by club members
and visiting friends, including a
large number form Maple Hill and
Grand Marais, and from start to fin
ish the event was thoroughly en-
joyed by all present.
An interesting program was rem
dered, consisting chiefly of an illus
trated lecture on the poultry indus
try by VIM. Clinch, followed by an
appropriate talk by Mr.. Clinch on
cooperation and community work
generally In a short congratulatory
talk by S. c. Murphy the people of
Tofte were highly complimented,
and deservedly so, on the progress
and thriftiness of the community,
so convincingly evidenced on every
hand.
Following the program, a dance
was given and at midnight lunch
was served.
The next similar event of interest
will be the dedication of the new
school building, the construction of
which is being pushed rapidly to-
wards completion. This new build
ing, which is surely a monument to
Tofte enterprise, will be ready for
dedication in a few weeks, and it is
planned to make this a memorable
event in local history.
