On Monday evening. the Daughters
OF Isabella had an initiation and took
into the Order a number OF new mem
bers Although the class was not as

tional Convention and a member of
the National Board OF Directors, was
an honor guest of the evening. and

local branch to have some OF the very
best workers in the parish join its
ranks and lend. their efforts to the
splendid work the Daughters OF Isa-
bella are doing.
The third Monday in the month is
always social evening for the
