HARPER PLACES AND MEMORIES ecently I made a trip by automobile to scenes of my college days and I came to the conclusion that people make our memories. Past our State capital where I had lived a number of years, we drove north along a railroad, by places I could people With memories and reached a small station where I had waited for the little tap train out to my college town. Thence we turned east and drove to the parish seat. You would call it the county seat. There is the old-time courthouse With its columns and the lawyer’ row across the street on one side. There were churches of several denominations and of worthy design. There were the buildings of a former Presbyterian college. But the charm of all was the memory of people who had dwelt there. Then retracing past the little Station to which I have referred, Ue came to the old college town where I spent some happy years. How the memories crowded upon Ine then. There is the church where I was married to the lady of my heart. But the old college is gone. Only the west wing remains, where the stately main building, with its huge Doric columns, is grown up in bushes and small trees. I c< uid weep but for the fact that the college itself is thriving elsewhere. I can people the old site with memories that have lived beyond the years. And 1 trust to be true to the best that I have known..

Washington Ave., South Bend, where she showed and told of her hobbies, the first, a collection of very unusual growing plants. Miss Huffman, who for years played a violin in the Kansas City Symphony Orchestra, also has an extensive and very beautiful collection of china figurines, all playing the violin. The club has had an informative and enjoyable ten programs this last year. Special devotions and the Flag salute were given each month. Interesting and Departmental roll calls were also enjoyed. In a philanthropic way, we fulfilled our obligation by gving to the State Federaton’s Penny Orchestra Fund, Musical Dimes, Dimes for Liberty, to the Latin American scholarship, to CARE, to the St. Joseph County Arthritic Fund, to the Sangralea Valley Home for delinquent boys, at Onward, Ind., which is a 13th District project. We bought a remarkable amount of hand sewed articles from the School for the Blind in Indianapolis. We turned into Goodwill 21 bags of clothing. We made cancer bandages, bed pads and swabs. Each member planted a tulip tree at the time of our conservation program. We entered the National Community Improvement contest with three projects. We have one reader who completed the Reading Course planned and arranged by Indiana University for the States Women’s clubs. In appreciation to Fauntelle Spellman for the great kindness she and her chorus have extended to the Women's Club many times in rendering selections for our programs, the club gave a financial gift for the purchase of music for the chorus.
