Everv liiembo: brought a parcel of clothing or some material to be made up into garments for the homeless and clothesless in Finland. It is the club's intention to have a weeklv sewing evening and to have a box filled with good serviceable clothes, and to hand this over to the Red Cross to send on to Finland.

Musical items were rendered by the orchestra and choir. Miss Eriksson presided, and supper was served by the committee.
