This organization has been active
for many years past in piomotlrlg a
Isplrit of friendliness and community
,action in the colony. especially so
among the newcomers and summer
residents who arrive each year. Their
work has been in no snmll manner
responsible for the growth and high
calibre of the section.

Alter each tea an hour of bridge
is held. The Association in years
past has raised good sums of money
in this manner. and the funds have
been expended for community bene-
fit. it. has purchased the stove.
Chall‘h. tables. and the dishes used
by the Club. Last year screens were
: ui'chnsed for all the windows of the
‘clubhouse. More than 81,000 was
raised last year. and ii. good part of
this sum has been placed ill the
fund for the rebuilding of the bridge
