The club house for which the Thom son 'Woman’s Club has been working for a number of years seems about to materialize. Two difficulties have been in the way; a lack of funds and the seeming impossibility of securing r, V/^tion The funds are slowly growing with prospects of augmenta- ..o.i tms ciub year, and the question of a location seems to have been set tled. At the next meeting of the club, at the school auditorium Oct. 8th, this matter will be taken up.
