TEUTSCH CHURCH
MOTHER AND
DAUGHTER BANQUE1

Last Mondays annual affair
sponsored by the Ladies Society
of Teutsch Memorial Lutheran
Church was happy and whole
some. Some $50 mothers and
daughters were in attendance,
and it would seem that in the fu-
ture the large, upstairs hall will
be needed in order to do full
justice to attendance and pro-
gram. The Woodworking commit
tees efforts have been rewarded.
Mrs. Emma Hartman, genial
and devoted president of the So
ciety, opened the program with
words of heartfelt welcome. She
claimed that she had done moth
ing toward the banquet, but
those who know her realize how
much her efforts have helped to
put it across. The committee in
the kitchen as we'll as on the pro-
gram functioned admirably. Mrs.
Helmy Deutschlander was given
the task of toast-mistress She
came through with flying colors.
Her staff presented the program
with amazing fnesse. Martha
Gottschling's songs, Erna Simo-

cheers of the assembly. Mrs. Ma

Homestead, Pa, April Our
last meeting was very we'll at
tended, which was very gratify-
ing. Perhaps the fact that Basket
ball was the chief topic of discus
sion might have been the induce
ment that attracted so many. It
is shame that the members SUD-
port the club only seasonally. 1t
may be fault of the group that
these certain members only show
when the above mentioned topic
is under discussion. The only
way that we can rectiiy this fail
ing it to make attendance at the
meetings more attractive. We
seem to have gotten a few people
interested in the games after the
meetings but they are too few.
Let's try to get more interest a
reused in these activities.
There was just one feature OF
the evening that was not as it
should have been and that was
the fact that the meeting room
was left in state of confusion
that was terrible to behold. Let
us not place too much strain on
the generosity of those have so
freely given us the privilege Of
holding our meetings at the club.
Several complaints have been re-
ceived by certain members about
the above condition.
1t was definitely decided that
the Homestead Juniors would
not be represented in the Saxon
League this winter. There were
several reasons for this decision,
namely, first and most import
ant, the lack of funds needed for
travel expenses; secondly, the
fact that any team we might
four would be too far out classed
in a fast league as the Saxon lea
J que. We have decided though, to
place bids for any open dates oI
any teams that mightwish to play
! our team. This may all seem a
| bit premature but this reporter
, thought it would be a good idea
to openly state how we stand.
A group of the local Juniors
are beginning to stir up interest
in an activity which may net us
, a nice profit (if the full member
ship is willing to go to work.
Attendance of the next meeting
is of vital Importance to all who
are interested in having a bal
team this winter.
Summer. according to the ca.
lendar, is just a few months a,
way, SO it would be a good idea
to begin thinking of our summer
activities. Let's not allow the
summer to slip by without some
effort at the usual summer diver.

available to us that it seems cri,
minal to let the opportunity to
take advantage of them to slip
lby.

The Ohio State Hospital Survey has
been completed and it shows this
state has 1897 general hospitai
beds, which is $4,000 less than are
needed to provide adequate hospital
facilities. There are no hospital, beds
in approved buildings in p counties,
and there are no hospital beds in Is
counties. The counties which have
no hospital beds or which have none
in approved buildings all are rural
areas So the shortage of facilities
affects farm people more than thoss
who live in urban areas.
