Mrs, Russell was very warmly welcomed at the regular monthly business meeting of ‘the Catholic | Daughters in the Parish Hall on | Tuesday evening: November 10. She renewed her membership. It will be many nioons, if ever, | before her equal can fill her place as an ardent worker, organizer and. planner of social activities. Much credit is due her from the State Convention of Catholic Daughters of America in Key West.’ It was to be regretted by many and especially the writer that she could not enjéy the func- tions of that great bvent.
