ing and filled four long tables of as
fine an exhibit ever seen at that an
nual event. The four clubs, Wide
Awake Garden (Village), Willing
Workers (Evansville), Busy Bees
(Center), and jolly Juniors North
District), combined as usual, pooling
their exhibits so that the cooking
table looked eft for a king;" on the
clothing table could be found some
thing for nearly every member of
the family; canning enough to feed
a family of six a whole year-about
200 quarts of finest quality, that
made the ladies stand and admire;
