The Executive Committee of The Garden Club met at the home of Mrs. Diffee at 9:45 March 23rd.
Mrs. Coble is unable to accept our invitation to join the Club - hence one vacancy still exists.
A new Garden Club has been organized in High Point and they request to become an auxiliary of ours. The Executive Committee approves this request & refers it to the Club for action.
The Committee appointed to devise some kind of a special gardening feature for this spring has been unable to do anything as two of the members have been prevented from devoting any time to it. The President accordingly appoints Mrs. S. C. Clark and [blank] to take their places.
