“ CIRCLE”
MEET
Last Friday afternoon the ladies
ofthe Christian church Circle met
at the country home of Mr. and Mrs.
D. C. McAllister.
Mrs. Isaacson read aloud several
interesting letters received by the
Circle from the Girls’ Junior Col
lege, o f Eugene. These letters were
acknowledgments of Christian gift*
which had been sent by the Circle
to the girls at Christmas time, the
home being composed o f girls who
otherwise would probably be home
less. The various Circles throughout
this section o f Oregon are doing a
great deal to help maintain the home
so that the girls belonging there may
have the advantages o f a Christian
education.
A fter the business meeting Mrs.
McAllister served a delectable lunch
if coffee and home made doughnuts
and a, very happy and helpful after
noon was spent.
