Wood Carving Display By Arts & Crafts The Arts and Crafts Inc. had another interesting and varied program at the Barn on Wednes- day night. Dr. D. S.

Mrs, Ernest Pullen and Mr. Hugh Calverley also display- ed beautiful examples of work done by amateur craftsmen, Mrs. Chick Baker, a new. mem- ber who has taught dramatics and done considerable radio work, gave several most enjoyable read- ings.

Don't leave it too long for some birds have already started nesting. The robins on my porch have already hatched and flown away from their nest.
