Mary Otis Isham, Secretary, 
After the two years in which our Club was drawn somewhat out Shaker 
of its regular line of thought, owing to the desire of aU our members Lakes Gar- 
to do everything possible for the comfort of our soldiers, we have den Club, 
returned to the peaceful tenor of our way and have had as the dominant Cleveland, 
note of our meetings during the past year the study of gardens and Ohio 
all things lovely in nature. 
We very gladly welcomed back into our President's chair our 
organizer and first President, Mrs. Rogers, and it was fitting that 
vmder her leadership we should this year have been accepted into the 
Garden Club of America. 
It was decided that this year should see all the money in our 
treasury spent for the benefit and entertainment of our Club, and 
it was also resolved that no subject foreign to our original purpose 
should be introduced at any meeting. 
We have had very interesting speakers who have talked to us on: 
Arrangement of Flowers, How to Raise Bulbs, Moths and ButterfiieSf 
Evergreens and Birds. 
Three original papers were given on Early Tulips, Late Tulips 
and Impressions of the New York Flower Show. 
During the Summer there was a series of garden parties planned, 
when no programme was given, the beauty of the gardens being 
sufficient entertainment. One of these meetings was held in the 
Shakespeare Garden in Wade Park. 
Only one strictly business meeting was held, as the business for 
the most part has been managed by the Executive Board and brought 
before the Club only to be voted on. 
We have presented a bird bath to the Shaker Heights High School
