Given Study Club—
A report from Mrs. Wallace Mc­

announced at the meeting of
organization last Thursday at

given her by the solicitors and that
sum far exceeded expectations. The
amount according to Mrs. McCrae,
chairman of the Civic committee,
consisted of donations from individ­
uals with the exception of $38 giv­
en by organizations in town.
The program was given by Mrs.
Richard Fletcher. She reviewed the
book, “Treasury of the World’s
Great Letters”, by M. Lincoln
Schuster. The author who for 25
years was a pi lublisher hit upon the
idea in 1923 in compiling
..... ., great
letters for book publication; as a
result a dramatic collection of let­
ters may be read in “Treasury of
the World's Great Letters”. The
epistles date from 1334 to the
present date.

the club will be held at the next

Carson featured as the erstwhile
football player turned fathead
