At each meeting a member will exchange books with her nearest neighbor and at the end of.the season the book is returned to the original owner; in this way a mem- ber can build up an excellent liâ€" brary. New books are purchased each season and a fee of 10 cents is collected at each meeting. The members are drawn from residents of Roosevelt Dr. and Westwood Lane. The group holds two meeting a month on Monday evenings a: 8.30 from September to May, and are arranged alphabetically in the homes so that each member has the opportunity of being hostess with three co-hostesses providing refreshments. This unique club originated in Octobei 1948 with a membership of 17 ladies residing in the Len- hardt subdivision. At that time the neighbors were quite scattered and the ladies decided to form a social evening .and so the idea of the book club came into being. It was also decided that each mem- ber should purchase a latest best- seller and exchange it with other members. In this way a member could read a number of good books for the price of one. The Roosevelt Ave Book Club resumed its fall activities on Mon- day evening, September 15, at the home of Mrs. Edward H. Spears. Roosevelt Book Club _\ H 18 Church St..
