With a paper which goes to press
early in the afternoon. it is not pos
sible to state accurately what action
was taken by the m embers of the
Woman's club in regard to the club
house today. But it is a safe guess
that the move to purchase the lots for
the club house would go thru without
opposition.
However, whether the club body IA
vors building a club house this year
remains to be seen. Opinions seem to
be about evenly divided. One enthu-
s,astic woman thinks that the major
ity favor going ahead with the plans.
and bases her opinion on the fact that
when a meeting of forty women was
called to discuss plans, thirty-three
were on hand in response to the call,
which had been issued only the eve
ming before.
This same woman, who had eigh-
teen names on her list, has had op-
portunity to consult only ten of them,
and has personally had 81. 400 pledged.
The courageous ones who are not
afraid of the high cost of labor and
r aterials. declare that prices are not
going to drop for years to come, and
they quote business men who have ex-
pressed the same opinion.
On the contrary, there are many
others, who. tho wanting a club house.
are not sufficiently "impulsive" Chat
Is the word oftenest heard in the con-
nection) to jump into it on the heels
of the war drives and the demands
generally upon even the latest purses.
