MemlKTS of the Shakespeare Club, Self Improvement Club and Civic Im provement Club are enthusiastic In the matter, and what these women undertake Is as good as accom pllsheed. The national organization of the American Woman's league has made a bona fide offer to t lie women of McMlnnvllle to build and furnish the club house for a local or ganization, and to maintain it fret1 of all expense to the local Chapter If their reasonable conditions are ful filled.
