The August meeting of the Carroll Garden CLub was held on the beautiful lawn at the home of Miss Edna Fuss with the McKinstry Mills members as hostesses.
As the guests and members gathered on the lawn, we were privileged to witness a lovely sunset. Mrs. Spoerline suggested that we sing Love’s Old Sweet Song as the opening to our meeting.
