Annual Meeting of
Woman's Club
The annual meeting of the Woman's
Club, the last one that will be held
until fall, was held yesterday after
noon at the club house at which time
reports of committees and of the
President, Mrs. Howell A.' Davis, were
made. The report of Mrs. Davis was
one of the most comprehensive ever
made at the club, covering, as it does,
one of the club's most successful years.
Her report, in full, follows:
October 8th, 1920, brought an An
nual Home-coming Day, and about
eighty-five of us responded to the call
for renewed effort, estimating our
selves fortunate indeed (to have a
number of past presidents with us.
In their alloted two minutes many
words of cherry advice, encourage
ment and helpful suggestions were
given. Then, under the capable sub
chairman, Mrs. Henly, the Social
Committee took charge, giving us, as
usual, an extrAnely good time and
furnishing an excellent musical pro
gram, Under Mrs. Mann the Library Com
mittee has given us consistently good
work, and special mention must be
made of the excellent and much ap
preciated work of Mrs. McQueen in
the Bible study.
Mrs. Corcoran, our efficient Musi
cal Chairman, has given us many
treats among ithem Mrs. Stil(man
Kelly, but unfortunately owing to the
condition of the piano we were not
able to enjoy to its greatest extent

The PoliticaT'Science Department,
under the able management of Mrs.
George Welch, has had a streneous
year, but have met splendidly all of
the demands on their time and atten
tion, and never-in the history of the
Club has this branch of work been
as heavy and diversified.
During the past year Mrs. Van
Home, our Civic Leader, has given
much time and thought to the subject
and has unfailingly given us of her
best in this most complicated and far.

peration with the Community
Christmas Tree; also our newly or
ganized Community Service. In ad
dition to the work done by the Civic
Department, the Club has also special
representation on this council.
Among the many branches of work
for the year the Home Economic De
partment, under the supervision of
Miss Sipprell, has had an extremely
successful year, and the Club feels
much repaid for time and money
spent in aiding this work throughout
the Btate. Miss Sipprell has very de
cidedly put Putnam county, and in
cidentally Palatka, on the map by
her untiring efforts and all the bene
fits to our locality means a gain for
us in all ways.
Mrs. Collins has given much time
nd hard work to the Child Welfare
Work, both in giving us extremely
good programs and attending to the
extremely heavy legislative work
that the awakening of interest on this
subject has produced. Mrs. Collins
