organization, recently issued in book 

 form and distributed to its members, is 

 an interesting volume. 



The next club meeting will be held 

 June 28 and the outing committee will 

 report on the available resorts for this 

 occasion. 



Mrs. H. J. Quick, who has been ill 

 in the hospital for some time, has re- 

 covered sufficiently to be removed to 

 her home. 



L. H. A. Klein, of Towson, has discon- 

 tinued attending the markets for the 

 summer, having sold out his entire bed- 

 ding plant supply. 



The attempt to remove the street 

 fakers from the shopping district has 

 failed and the boys are on the corners 

 as usual. The city council adjourned 

 for the summer before the bill prohibit- 

 ing the fakers from standing on the 

 streets reached the stage where it could 

 be acted on; consequently these street 

 merchants will not be molested until 

 fall. W, F. E.
