Vice-President Currie, as a committee 

 on the children's gardens, has awarded 

 four sweepstake prizes, instead of two, 

 as arranged. Eight schools were repre- 

 sented. The club has made its annual 

 distribution of Dutch bulbs to the pub- 

 lic schools. It was voted to change our 

 regular meeting nights from the first

 days of each month.

 November 13, at our new rooms in the 

 Brent building. The schedule of prizes 

 is out, and prospects for a good display 

 are excellent. The committee on awards 

 is M. B. 'Faxon, William Graff and Bich- 



ard Sinclair. Messrs. Faxon and Graff 

 have offered special prizes. B. A. Currie 

 is manager of the show,
