ginning of something that was needed
long ago in this rural community. The
war and other causes prevented it's for
nation before this time. Every member
attending seemed to be of the opinion
that they returned from this meeting
with better view of their community
obligations and possibilities. They
agree that Mr.. Olmstead's talk was one
Of the best they ever heard. Mr. L. J..
Schlattman was chosen president,
Arnold GinnOW secretary, Carl Henrik
