It was also decided to give a medal for the best essay on "Americanism" submitted by a girl student of the Eighth grade, and the contest will be announced in the near future. Excerpts were read from Auxiliary Star Rehabilitation Notes, offering numerous suggestions of interest to the local unit. Another plan being sponsored by the Auxiliary includes the rememb ering of needy ex-service men of the community and .their families at Christmas time, and the efforts of the next meeting will be concentrat ed on securing toys, good things to eat. etc., for such distribution. After the close of the business ses sion and a period spent in social con versation the hostess served a delic ious luncheon and it was the usual late hour wheu the members depart ed for their homes to prepare the evening repast for Friend Hubby. a wonderful message for the good people of Greenwood and vicinity. Some time ago these members of the two fraternities gathered at the Hartsook farm and cut and sawed a supply of wood sufficient to last the winter season on the farm. i Truly these acts prove that in this rushing age of struggle for gain and gold that the higher and finer teachings have not been lost sight of in the daily struggle and Green wood and its people have shown a real example of true christian spirit.
