. The local Women of Woodcraft
brought their membership contest
to a close last Friday night, Mrs.
Arnold's team defeating Mrs. Hawk
ins by a good margin. The con
test added 42 new members to the
Circle. The losing sides in the
Circle and Camp will now combine
their energies, talents and loose
change and treaty the winners to a
banquet and entertainmeut New
Year's eve, December 31. Owing
to the large membership, the ex
pense will be rather heavy and the
seating capacity of the hall taxed
to practically its limit. For this
reason it will be necessary to make
the event 'strictly a membership

bers and those who have recently
made application for membership.

19th." As we have heard no re
port to the contrary, we suppose it
took effect, and therefore extend
hearty congratulations.
