MEETING THURSDAY—
Thursday’s (today’s) meeting
is our Christmas party. Nellie
MacKenzie has been do-re-mi-ing
with the Carol Singers in prepar
ation for the occasion. There will
be the usual "gift exchange”—
something home-made or grown—
in fact a quite extensive pro
gram. Last but not least our
district vice-president will come
all the way down from Coos Bay
to be our guest. Undoubtedly we
may look forward to a short talk
to the club from Mrs. Farr, and,'
again to remind you, this is our
last get-together for the year of
1948—so let’s all be there!
