The Robbins eagle. (Robbins, Ill.) 1951-1963, 1953-08-29
By Mrs. O'Dell Anderson

Sunday, August p, 1853, was
high day for the Women's
Improvement Civic Club. For
three years they have tried to
do something for the people Of
Robbins. The Christmas de-
corations are placed in the vii
lage hall by this group and
this year they are hoping the
business men and women will
join them and really make a
Christmas for the children. Each
year there is a Back-to-School
party for the younger set and
now six-piece combination
swing set placed on Midlothian
Turnpike and Ayers avenue
playground. We regret very
much that the other civic groups
such as Recreation Club, Rob-
bins Celebration League and
others do not think as we do
and join in with us and place
Equipment on this play lot for
