The program leader for the afternion was Mrs. Carroll Burkholder who reviewed the book. "Guns or Butter" by Bruce Ixickhart. The tule of this book is suggested by the famous quotation of Germany’s Field Marshall Goring. "Guns will make us powerful. Butter will only make us fat," Mr. Lockhart started on a tour of Central Europe in 1938 and he hardly could have foreseen the exciting days which were in store for him. He reached Vienna on that fateful day of March 15. 1938, when Hitler made his famous entry into Austria. The author gives a vivid word picture of the huge throng waiting to see the Fuehrer. It was primarily a crowd of Young Austrians for Nazism is aiKwe all a youth movement. After the parade and the demonstration was over, Mr. Lockhart left Vienna for Prague, for he realized that the curtain was soon to go up on the last act of the Czech Slovakian drama. The annual 'business meeting will be held next Wednesday at the home of Mrs. George Walton, with Mrs. Dan Sprange as the leader for the afternoon. 0 Girl Has 34th Fracture Springfield.
