that need Mr.. Young's attention.
The Garden club celebrated its
one-year-old birthday in the libra
ry Thursday night of last week.
Mr.. and Mrs. Shride Of Vashon
were present. Mr.. Shride gave a
very fine and instructive talk on
naturalization. A flower show
twas decided on to be held some
time in June, the exact date de-
pending on how deep the snow is
at that time. Snowy petals we
mean! A large birthday cake was
the center Of attraction at the de-
licious luncheon served at the close
Of the meeting. A good crowd
was in attendance.
Inadvertently, no mention was
made last week of the fine pro-
gram we all enjoyed at the Inn
provement club meeting Thurs
day evening before when Southern
Heights and Lisabeula schools
were the entertainers.
On Thursday evening, May End,
Dockton and Maury people will
be guests Of the club.

community church Thursday
April 25th; IL O'Clock luncheon
The ladies are requested ia bring
Sandwiches, coffee and dessert will
be served. Mrs. g. J. Olson and
Mrs. Ben Netting, hostesses.

constantly in progress in our com

take.
Occasionally an entertainment
must be written up before it hap
"opens, then if it doesn't happen
something else happens! Wei

To give details of the entertain

be to repeat what was witnessed
by the whole community, as near

nounced it a success way beyond
their expectations.
