During the bright, sunny days
of Octotier lii't, a number of our
little folks formed the idea of or-
ganizing themselves into a ‘ Sun
shine Club ’ to become a brunch
of the International Sunshine so-
ciety, that they might create jo,v
and happiness in many dark
places.
The club is composed of the
Sunday school classes of Mrs W.
T. Malone and Miss Bessie Par-
ker, consisting of fifteen bright
little girls whose names are here
given:
President, Clara Hays; vice
president, Lura Cook; secretary.

Slake, Ray Guthrie, Genie Bar-
rett, Ada Tltoinps in. Mart Gel-
der, Helen Empe.v, Katherine
Bonehrake, Marjory 11 tys, Cor-
nelia Libby and Anna Libby.
Mrs Hays, Mrs Malone and Miss
Parker are the directors.
The club motto is ‘Spread
Sunshine Everywhere.” It meets
every two weeks, on Saturday af-
ternoon, pt the different homes
of the members and the youthful
officers preside with as much dig-
nity as officers of older clubs
