Wonder Lake Mary Jean Huff 728-0267 / Club Functions On Community Interest Basis The November meeting of the Wonder Lake Garden club enjoyed the warm hospitality of its hostess, Mrs. Bobbi Fiali, with a recap of past meetings and plans for future programs on the agenda. I was reminded of people who had asked about our club - is it a bunch of women coffee clutching and visiting? Y°*, we do, but our club is more ..an that. It is a group of hard working, dedicated people who are interested in gardening not only on a personal level, but on a community basis. We have informed programs pertaining to our interests with enthusiastic talks from local environmentalists, florists, horticulturists, gardeners or any other related fields in­ cluding "in club" programs by members as well. Our continuing club projects include helping Valley Hi Nursing home at Hartland, planting and maintaining gardens at the Wonder Lake post office and the floral arrangements in the lobby, collecting commemorative stamps for the Audubon society preserve for the American Eagle in Maitland, Fla., and Cathedral coupon program for the Elderly. These are but a few of the projects we perform and hope to do more of in the future. Our next meeting will be Thursday, Feb. 9, at 8 o'clock in the evening in the home of Mrs. Ruth Kinzie, 4215 E.

It seems the legion, during the holiday season, had passed out twelve baskets of food to the needy in the area. These baskets were made possible by the donations of the people of Wonder Lake and the Legionnaires. Wilbur and the American Legion would like to acknowledge the generosity of everyone.
