On May 18th the Study Club held its
last meeting for this season. This
was strictly a business meeting and
consisted most part of reports from the
various officers and committees
The work to be taken up by the
Club for the coming season was dis
cussed and a program committee ap-
pointed. The general sentiment
seemed to be for a more serious pro-
gram for the coming year a program
from which more benefit will be de-
rived by the members. 1t is probable
that some course of study, to take up
a part of each meeting at least, VIII
be in the new year books.
The State Federation OF Women
Clubs meets the last of May at Weiser.
Mrs. Fred Gooding and Miss Francis
Mills were elected as delegates to at
tend this meeting.
At the close of the meeting dainty
refreshments were served.
