HennVtt, to succeed Mrs. Maud Eddon; recording secretary, Mrs. J. C. Brill, re elected corresponding secretary, Mrs. William IC Ketchum. who succeeds Mrs. J. C. Bright; treanurer. Mrs. Hutch D. Terry, succeeding Mrs. Simeon Bolton, resltmed; membor of the board of direc tors. Mrs. W. U Bradshaw. to fill the vacancy created by Mrs. William A. Johnston who resigned. A riulng vote of thanles was unani mously extended to Mrs. l.OKun, the retiring president, for her unceasing and untlrlnff efforts durtriff her two splendid terms of office which were most sue- enKful. i The rlub then ailoumcd. with Its guests, to enjoy an outing on The Dalles "Helglits" where the city irons 40 acres of natural parkland which the Sorosfs club 1ms lonpr been anxious for the city to set BKlde for a park. Forty were conveyed to this "Council Crest" of The Dalles, where all were most delighted at the beautiful location. After a generous spread, with coffee made over a bonfire, Mrs. Nathan Whealdon responded to an Invitation to report on the steps already taken towards making this location a pcrma nent city park. She said that In order for this ground to be set aside for park purposes a bill must he passed at the June election. In order to get this meas ure before the voters, she and Mrs. Lo gan secured over 140 names of promt nent representative cltlxens on a peti tion which has been filed with City Re corder Davis. All of the signers, said Mrs. Whealdon, were glad to cooperate In the movement. Many mora names could have been secured had they been needed. The Sorosls club members arc now anxious that the voters In June pass the bill. No special taxes need be levied to maintain or develop this park as the natural beauty is sufficient, the object now being to simply get the appropria tion from the city. Mrs. Whealdon's report was received with enthusiastic applause. Mrs. Logan then read her annual report, showing the work of the club and the splendid way it entertained the State Women's Federation of clubs last fall.
