SOUGHT FLOWER SEEDS A LONG TIME,

Dear Editor and Social Corner Sisters: I enjoyed reading the letters on The Cor. ner page of last week very much, as some of the sisters had not sent in a letter for quite a while.
 Twice Twenty of Club Nc. 4: read your letter on The Corner page of last week. I saw where you are to have s meeting at your home on Wednesday the 21th of this month, and have invited all of The Corner clubs to come. I think it very nice of you to do this. You must certainly have reomy house to entertain 50 many, that is. judging from the crowds We had at the Buckingham Memorial this month. I know just where DayyilIe is, as am acquainted up that way, but do not just understand where the east four corners are. Please explain in your next letter to The Corner the location aa l should be pleased to know. as I visit the place quite often. I hope you will nave pleasant day, also big crowd and jolly good time
 Wado: Please send marieeld seeds single and double, and any other old. l fashioned flower seeds, as I have tried te get some for a lSng time. With many thanks. RED CLOVER.
