The theme of the evening taken by panel discussion, reading and suggest- ed booklets for reading was on "dis- cipline". This was followed by a con- test, conducted by Mrs. Middleton, in which we were led from "play" to "work" through clues that changed one letter at a time. During the business period it was decided to sponsor a euchre party at the Township Hall on Saturday, Feb. 20.
