Eliza Farquhar, one of the appointed
readers, gave us a short article on "The love
of flowers."

Anna L. Moore, the other reader was absent
W. H. Farquhar read of the "Usefulness of Moles"
with which article we would like to agree, but
the meeting did not seem to have full faith
that these little pests do more good than
harm in our lawns and flower gardens.

The readers for next meeting are Mary M.
Miller and Roger B Farquhar.
