attend this meeting at it is the time
for election of officers for the com-

Considerable expense is involved
in some of our community projects,
such as the purchase of the bleach-

the securing of glasses for those
who are less fortunate than some of
us, and also in some of the Wel-

We hope the people of the coun-

make this a worthwhile project,
and in turn do a good deed for
some of those who are less fortun-
ate.
Don’t forget the date, June 18th,
