These same walls probably .felt that they were housing a curiosity shop formed from the Whtte Elephant .shower held in their midst. But the elephants were not left Long m their abode for they were taken to the Community Shop, to be put on sale, the money derived from their disposal will be given to the building fund of the Woman's club. . The social committee has been meeting for monthly luncheons during the summer, but each member has not received this season such an intriguing invitation to come with a present in hand, "an inkwell or a parasol, or dress most out of date, a hat or lamp or jewelry, or amah jongg set perchance, some golf clubs or bric-a-brac or just a pair of pants!' No one knows as well as the women working on this committee, who serve the luncheons during the club's program season, how inadequate the kitchen facilities are, and as the same group of w.o men will be at work in the fall, they are anxious to swell the fund so that they will have a place large enough to hold them when they are all on duty.
