There was a beautiful display of flowers at this club meeting, but due to the fact that our time was rather limited we did not vote on the prettiest vases. After the business session, we were invited into the dining room where we were served most deli cious cakes and hot tea. 1 We always find these meetings so enjoyable, as well as so very helpful, that we are sorry when the time comes to say “good-bye.” We continue to urge the ladies to attend these meetings.
