To Safeguard Grange Hall For some time past, the officers and members o f the Garfield Grange have been considering the advisability of making certain al terations in their hall, to guaran tee more adequate fire protection. It is the intention of the organ ization to build an additional stair way or exit from the auditorium on the second Hoor; to widen the stairways; to have all doors open out and to generally so arrange the building that safety and com fort will be assured. Fortunately the question o f raising the extra money for these alterations seems to be solved, as Dr. Walter H. Nugent, who is spending a few weeks vacation in' Garfield, has consented to deliver h i s Eastern Lyceum Bureau lecture, entitled “ How to Get There” for the benefit of the grange. This lecture will occur next Fri day evening, August 25th, at the Grange Hall and will be free, with a collection taken later, the proceeds to go towards the build ing alterations. Dr. Nugent, who is the pastor of the Central Congregational Church of Newburyport, Mass., is a lecturer much sought after by eastern lecture bureaus and as Dr. Gunsaulus says “ Dr. Nugent has excellent things to say and he says them in a most excellent fashion.” Garfield Gleanings Contributed Mrs. Nan Armstrong of Wash ington, Iowa, visited over Sun day last week, with her cousin, Mrs. W. R. Reed. Mrs. Walter Whitcomb of Port land visited in this section last week.
