tofore unrevealed message:

meeting Of the month Saturday evening.
Dec. l. Supper was served prior to the
Grange meeting proper Despite the heavy
fall Of snow and cutting northeast wind.
as many members were present for the
annual election of officers as were pres
ent a year ago when fair weather pre-
vailed and a special effort was made in
regard to attendance. This fact goes to
show the increase of interest and loyalty
OF the members to the work which this
Grange has undertaken. While officers
and members do not feel sense Of en-
tire satisfaction in regard to the past
years work. yet they feel grateful to no
little extent at what has been accom-
plished and entertain much hope for bet
ter things in 1918. The Grange Is not
working merely for it's own advance
ment but for the welfare OF the surround
ing community. BY being true to its pur-
poses and aims. the members feet that the
day is not far distant when f.itchfield will
understand more fully the things for
which the Grange Is striving.

well as shippings, coppers and specialties,

relatively easy but time funds were in
small supply.
