January 1918

At our meetings on Dec. 10th we had in the afternoon a good gathering of the ladies who proudly claim some relationship with our men at the front. At the roll call of our men each lady connected with each name held up her hand and we found we had a representative present of almost all our soldiers. The ladies declared it a complete success and would like to meet again to have another "yarn" about "our boys." At our evening meeting we welcomed buck into our midst those men of ours, who, having done their bit, are settling down again into civilian life, viz.-
