plants proved that there will be summer at
Norwood after the snow flakes are flying and
the branches leafless in the beautiful shadows
on the lawn. We failed to note the name of the
friend who gave a verse by Florence Ear1e Cook
but it is worthy a place in our minutes and
slall serve as our conclusion
.
"The robin chants when the thrush is dumb
Snow smooths a bed for the clover
Life flames anew and days to come
Are sweet as the days that are over".

Adjourned to Cedarlawn.

10/27-1898 The Association gathered at Cedarlawn
in full force. Guests were Mrs. Phillips,
Mrs. Lippincott, Catherine Janney, Carrie L. Brooke,
Corrie M. Brooke, Alice B. Stabler, Ellen Stabler,
Mary E. Gilpin, Frances D. Stabler, Lucy Miller,
Alice and Beatrix Tyson. The sentiment of
the hostess was- "No good thing can be done
in a hurry, thought requires time and rest"

Elizabeth G. Thomas commenced the exercises with
a poem "Out of Touch" which was a little
sermon on the importance of performing small duties
to family and friends, she also gave an admirable
article by Arthur B. Farquhar "The Plow share
in peace" which closed thus - The plow is
the worlds greatest invention, as peace is the
worlds greatest blessing." Mary E. Moore
