Recognizing the fact. that nothing stands still, that it must either go ahead or retrogress, the Woman's club |has chosen to go forward and its achievements are worthy of note, | ‘'he complete reports for the year| follow: f I'he close of this long winter sea- | son and the welcome hints of warm spring ys bring us to the close of our year's work and to the reading of the 47th annual report of the Wom- an's elub, “During the past vear no changes were made in the board of officers and M James E. Cooper and Mrs, | John H. Kirkham were elected :lirec- | |tors for the term expiring in 1025, “One of the first questions to be de- |cided was the club meeting place for |the coming year, and since there | scemed to be a great difference of opinion, the board thought it wise to |give each member of the club a | matter. Return postcards were sent| |to all members of the club and. of the |198 cards returned to the secretary |there were 78 votes for the Camp ‘S«"huol and 120 for the First church |chapel. While this was not an over- whelming majority, and while more than one-third of the club members had failed to respond, the choice seemed to be in faver of the Iirst |church chapel which was accordingly adopted as our meeting place. As a result there has been a happy com- bination of literary and social cle- ments at our meetings and this has been a source of great satisfactign to many. “The year's program began with a reception held from 4 until ¢ o'clock on October 17. The officers and di- rectors of the club were in the re- ceiving line and welcomed a large number of women, among them ma. new members.
