Youngstown, O., Oct. S-Our
last meeting was held Sept. 81.
With all officers present and about
8 or 4 other members the club
business went on as usual. We
are determined to keep this club
running even if it is the officers
alone who attend the meetings.
Never let it be said that the Yo.
club has folded up. If you know
what this club means to the flu
ture generation and the boys in
the service you wouldn't hesitate
for one minute to back up your
club. And if you have one bit of
the Saxon spirit and sense of
loyalty to your club I'm sure you
would help to support your club
now. We are now at war, there
fore we should ali cooperate and
work together all the more. This
is also an appeal to the parents
of the Juniors. Send your chill
dren to the meetings. With your
guidance and advice I'm sure
they will attend the meetings.
Our meetings will be held on
Thursday night. Since transporta-
tion is getting scare we have de-
cided to try and work everything
all in one night. On Thursday
nights there will be mixed
chorus rehearsal. This includes
the women, men and Juniors. All
singers are asked to attend. Our
next meeting will be held Oct.
IS, at 7:3O p. m. Members be on
time.
