           National  has lost t.wo long,time  members  in the death of these friends,
       as both Mrs. Cleveland  and Mr. Johnson  joined our Society in  1948.  We
       extend our sympathy  to the families  of these friends.
           Mrs. Cleveland was a  member of the  Half-Moon CIub, and the New
       l-ork State Society. She was interested  in  the hobby at an early date and
       r:xhibited  many trays of  buttons in  1941 at  the New Jersey State Show.
           Robert W.  Johnson was known nationally as a  serious collector of
       uniform buttons.  Because  of  his interest in  world history  he collected
       both the American and Foreign buttons and catalogued them very carefully.
       For a number of years he served  as a  judge  in Division  2.
           Mr. Johnson was greatly  interested in  our National Society.  In  the
       Ivlissouri  State Button Society he held the  ofrce of  Second Vice-president.
       He attended  both the National and State meetings annually and will  be
       greatly rnissed by his many  friends.
