Programs have been varied and
helpful, not only for ourselves but
for others. A Christmas party for

indeed, interesting. The Bridgeville

endar, and came in numbers to visit !
the sister club. Thus bringing in
Bpiration and new ideas.
There have been four afternoons {
and one when the members were in

with the ones who had BEEN to Flor
ida, Hawaii, Palestine, Oberam-
mergau, and to Scandinavia. These {
word pictures were so real that the
members felt they had made the
rips themselves.

With the maneger of the local the Il
