softball the game of tennis has been revived members of the club have re novated the courts and spent considerable time and money in placing this corner of the park at the disposal of tennis players young and old plans are to carry this same program into the arena this winter with organized hockey teams from the bantam group up this work has hitherto been neglected to some extent its a great work

seven months after its organ ization for several years follow ing this they sent 20 to each society the money was not raised by freewill contributions as a good deal of our money is today but the
