The monthly Chapter meeting was

upon that all meetings would be ad

The Rose City and Portland Chapters
held a joint dance at the Red Men hall

LIBRARY BUILDING CHAPTER 23
Now that our Library Building Chap
ter is meeting in the evening, we have
had more time to relax and enjoy our
meetings and to get acquainted. Many
of our members, however, have not had
an opportunity to meet the members
of other chapters. We will be glad to
have guests from other departments
come to our meetings on the first Fri
day following the fifth of each month.
Entertainment and Refreshment Com
mittees have been appointed for each
month until the end of the year, thus
assuring something special in addition
to our business-meetings'.
For our June meeting, motion pic
tures were borrowed from the Game
Commission. Especially interesting was
the reel showing7 the salmon fishing at
Celilo Falls on the Columbia. Most of
us didn’t realize that Oregon salmon
are so large they have to be knocked
out with clubs, while you hope they
don’t get you first!
Mr. C. F. Feike, Acting Director of
Vocational Rehabilitation, spoke at our
July meeting. He told us about many,
of the interesting highlights and activi

of finding out about the activities of
various departments and will probably
carry out this very good beginning
with later talks about other depart
ments.’ ^

president of our chapter. Winston Pur-

on field trips. Thus he felt it was ne
cessary for him to turn over his duties
to "a more resident president,”, as he
expressed it,
