take such a training course.
A number of ladies have
made application for member-
ship, and training classes for
new members will be held at
the hospital on April 21, 23
and 25.
The organization voted to
sponsor a building fund for the
hospital. Such a fund is already
in existence, it having been
started with contributions from
those receiving polio shots dur-
ing mass innoculations last
spring. Although it is not very
large when compared with the
thousands of dollars required
to build a new hospital, it was
pointed out that “from little
acorns, mighty oaks grow,” and
anything the Auxiliary could
do would be a start in the right
direction.
The group also decided to
sponsor an open house at the
hospital on Hospital Day, May
12. Details are to be worked
out by the board of directors.
Mrs. Paine and Mrs. Williams
were selected as delegates to
the State convention of Hos-
pital Auxiliaries which will be
held in Dallas on May 5-8. At
the same time Miss Reichert
will attend the meeting of hos-
pital supervisors and nurses.
A scrap book, which will be
taken to the State convention
by the delegates, was on dis-
play at the meeting. It was re-
plete with clippings, pictures
and other information relative
to die activities of the Auxil-
iary during its first year, and
was compiled by the historian,
Mrs. Wiley.

“Wayfarer’s Grace” was sung
