There was large attendance and
after the business session the follow
ing program was given:
Mrs. Devine, whose subject was
Immigrant Authors" reviewed the
life and works of foreign writer's of
note. Among them were S: S. Mcclure,
Edward Steiner, Elias Torenkin, Alb
raham Ribbarry, Mary Austin, Alex
ander Irvine and Jacob Riis. "My
Lady of the Chimney Cover" and
"The Making of an American" by
the last named authors, were espec-
tally fine. The manner in which Mrs.
Devine gave these reviews portrayed
clearly the authors meaning and re-
vealed to us what rich treasures these
people from far-off lands have given
US in literature.
Mrs. Lounsbury gave the first two
acts of the famous drama, "The Melt
ing Pot" by Israel Zangwill. Mrs.
Lounsbury possesses unusual ability
in this line and her Interpretation Of

There was no demonstration of any
kind, just each one going about their
task in a quiet, unobtrusive way,
bringing the message of the way to
peace to all who would listen. The
sale of bonds during this drive far
exceeded the most sanguine expecta-
tions of the committees in charge. 1t
indicates the sentiment of the people
and shows our determination to de-
feat the destroyer of peace" and win
this war, and our willingness to do
our part on this side must inspire con-
fidence and courage in the hearts of
our boys cover there" and this alone
will suffice for any sacrifice we may
be called upon to make.
The drive closed on Thursday even
ing in the same quiet way in which
it began, and l take this way Of thank
ing all VINO assisted in making it a
success.

everything has been done excepting
to perfect the plans by appointing

plots have been secured, one near the
Science School and the other near the
Public School. These have been
plowed, dsced and fertilized and are
ready for the hoe and rake. Gardens
are laid out in 25x25 feet tracts and
and about thirty-two of these have
already been leased at Soc each, for
the season. There are as many more
to let and we feel sure all will be
planted. Plants can be bought at very
reasonable prices at the Greenhouse,
and it is early enough to plant any,
thing you like, yet.
