 Still another progressive step was zto enroll membership of 10 whose k names will be sent to the Extension sDiuzion so that they may receive the bulletins and reports that are sent Iouf from time to time. Another move to stimulate local interest was the de- cision Go hold meetings at least quar- teriy. the next meeting date selected being on Tuesday of the second week in January, 1922.
