Goddard, Manager i^^^^^H$H^««jH$^t^t^t'^t'^t'^t^t^t^><<H>«^<M»*^^ BUCKINGHAM Th« Commanity Club held their December meetincr in the church on Wednesday last and cleaned the church. It being the annual meetinir, the election of officers was held. The rainy weather probably was respons- ible for pnly nine members being present. However, after the cleaning was completed, the meeting was opened with the president in charge, the first item being a very compre- hensive report of the year's work by the secretary. The treasurer's report was gratifying, a substantial balance being left on hand. After adoption of these reports, several items of bus- iness of general interest were dis- cussed, the one receiving the most attention being that in. regard to the Club dropping, as much as possible, the routine work and identifying it- self with similar groups In order to be of the most possible service in the work for the soldiers. Election of officers for the coming year was then held, with the president in charge. Several motions were made to have the retiring officers carry on for another year, but upon their de- clining, received a vote of thanks from the other members. The presi- dent expressed appreciation for the co-operation from everyone. The el- ection resulted as follows: Presidentâ€" Mrs. C. N. Long. Vice-President â€" Mrs. Alex. Mullin. Secretary â€" Mrs. Jas. Fawcett. Treasurer â€" Mrs. Alex. Mitchell. Buying Com. â€" Mrs. Wm. Conn and Mrs. J. Brown. The meeting then closed, having accepted an invitation from Mrs. J. Black to meet at her home on Wed- nesday, Jan. 3rd, 1940. Cake cc: Mrs. H. Hawton, Mrs. J. Hudson and Mrs. J. Fawcett. (Intended for Last Week) Mr. and Mj:^.
