BEFORE THE
WOMAN'S CLUB,
The following papers on “The Power
of Early Impressions'” was read by Mrs.
Ethel Hilly er Harris before the Rome
Woman’s Club at its meeting the past
week:
The most authentic account of the
power of early impressions must be
taken from one’s own personal experi
ence.
While it is in good taste to suppress
the personal pronoun, yet egotism is
overly tempted, and I will cite you to a
beautiful picture, which memory kindly
leaves to bring solace when fortune
proves unkind.
My earliest recollections are of the
glorious sun light streaming over ver
dant wheat-fields, and the low murmur
of the gentle brown partridge cowering
in their tender greenery.
Then there is a winding river, and
bosky dells, and plum thickets, and
big oak trees in whose bows are a hun
dred song birds. There is an old garden
with holly hocks, roses, pear trees, and
sweet thyme. There is above all the
sweet face of my mother with her hair
parted, Madonna-wise, a lace collar
about her throat clasped with an old
fashioned pin containing looks of her
babies hair. >
These things come to me in the cool
experience of after years, and with them
a little yellow backed catechism, and
long Sunday afternoons and my moth
er’s patient gentle voice saying, “Who
made you?” “Who was the first man?”
and “What did Abraham do for the love
of God with his only child?’ ’
Above all the sophistries and specula
tion of these latter day revelations, the
sway of that small' brown, worn, and
frazzled catechism abides—with tbe
look of love in my mother’s eyes, and I
know if any good comes to me here, or
hereafter it will be because of her. And
lam not afraid of what may on the

the moon, and tne white clouds rolliuk

: she always kissed me, and said, begin—
‘•Now I lay me Gown «o ele p
I pfdy the Lord my soul io keep
If I Should die before 1 wake

Over all the joy, sorrow, pain, and
over all my graves comes back tbe sweet
melody. Fate can do her worst, hut
memory is an immortelle, today I am
again a child, and the most blessed of
children one with a mother.
I see again tbe open firn, and inhale
the odor of the blazing pine knots I see
my only sister rosily asleep in the tall
“teaster” bedstead, and I see my fath
er’s mahogony bureau with its glass
knobs, and with it all is love, innocence,
and youth.
In those days though my respect for
the blacks was much greater than my
love for tne whites in the back yard,
and kitchen, tbe dusky folk held me
under a spell almost amounting to en
chantment,
A great triumph on the side of the
young ones was that they could play on
Sunday. A vivid picture abounds of a
play house under an apple tree redolent
with blooms. There was a doll very ill.
they brought a doctor then amidst great
wailing in colored throats, the dear lady
died all on a Sunday evening, and was
buried with great pomp and ceremony,
and I could not go to tbe funeral just
because I was white and must have my
conscience hurt me for even looking on.
It seemed very hard that the mere fact
of being white should debar me from so
many delightful sports, like wading in
the creek “wringing a chicken’s neck’’
‘‘possum hunting*’ climbing trees, and
eating green apples, and kindred joys
But even now the tragic death of
the Sunday doll thrilled me more than
tbe going off of Marguerite in Fau-t at
tbe French opera during the carnival
week of Mardi-Gras.
Yet with it all we are still moles
crawling in a long dark furrow, from
j tin time of Rameees II what has
p lilosopby brought ns that is tangible?
At best we but wait and watch and
wonder, our intentions, and our in
stincts are our guardian angels
What is mind?
What is mattei?
What is soul?
Os the latter we must know. Through
matter only and in small dark chinks
shines that knowledge which comes
from tbs AU-knowledge, purposely lim

on the most perfect and beneficient
lines.
We are making for God, and man.
The purpose of this olub is for better
living, and Wiser dying. Tbe subject, of
this paper is one beyond me I fad to do
justice to tbe magnitude of its scope.
Believing that fate is simplv environ
meut how more than burdened, and re
sponsible is woman for the future of
man? Woman that word which trans
lates all that is tender, lovable, and
emotional, which says and means
mother hood.
How much do we, owe to the unborn
child? Every child has tbe right to be
properly born. Early impressions often
signify pre natal impressions.
When God gave to woman pain, by a
sweet law of compensation, he also gave
to her more than man the power to
mould the features, and soul of her off
spring.
Purity of heart, a love for music, art,
and all the beautiful, would as tbe sun
colors the tight closed infant rose buds
color all the future of her unborn child.
Genius is said to be the child of love;,
perfect congeniality, and nobility of
soul, which are both the hand maidens
of truth always bring harmony, and
beauty to regale a weary Aorld.
With all tbe tendencies of the modern
new woman it Would be well for her to
remember that the fairest “angels about
tbe throne of Lfe are honor, unselfish
uess and sympathy.”
With all new, and progressive
thought and with all renovations in
dress, and manner, with her lies the
moulding of unborn nations. If she is
bold, if she is masculine, so will her
daughter become, and may there nor,
by a strange commingling and con
glomeration brought about by herself,
arise a horrible warping of her child's
character ?
Will not the girls grow unmaidenly.
and the boys effeminate? God made no
weaker than man, but at the same time
He being All Good it will all be rectified
He has made us not only the guide bur
the shrine for weary man. We are the
pure things of life. Though more than
flowers we are like them expected to
bring only sweetness, and light to dark
places.
Tbe Madonna faces of our mothers
when they rocked us to sleep, bear vivid
testimony that we can build no better
than they in the good old fashioned doc
trines of truth, modesty and religion.

BITTEN BY A SPIDER.
Miss Marie Celeste Ayer of This City
Files Suit For 9222.5 ti Damage
Miss Marie Celeste Ayer, art teacher
in Shorter college, and one of Rome’s
most b’ autiful and talented young
ladies, is suing the United States Cas
ulaly Company, of New York for
$222.85 damage. •
Last summer Miss Ayer took a trip
to Europe, and while en route from
Atlanta to Portsmouth wafi bitten on
tbe right cheek by a spider. The
pain was very severe while crossing
tbe Atlantic, and gave ber much trou
ble during her stay abroad.
Miss Ayer is a strikingly beautiful
young lady, and while tbe bide of tbe
spider has given her much pain, it has
in no way disfigured her.
She has filled suit against theacci
dent company both in Atlanta and in
this city. The insurance company
refused to pay damages on the ground
that the policy did not cover a spiders
bite.
Rowell & Rowell represent Miss
Ayer in Rome, and Dorsey, Brewster
& Howell in Atlanta.
Tbe amout claimed by the plaintiff
is $222 85 with interest from July 24,
1897, twenty-five per cent, damages
and SIOO attorney fees. It is contend
ed that tbe policy insured tbe bolder
against any loss caused by bodily in
juries which were effected solely by
external violent and accidental means.
The violence of the attack is indicat
ed by the following extract from the
petition:
“At tbe time it did not occur to her
that the injury was at all serious, nor
did she think it was of a serious na
ture until after she bed sailed for
Europe on the steamer City of Rome.
On Thursday, June 10th, tbe wound
produced by the spider bad become
very painful. Your petitioner Was at
tended by competent physicians on
board of tbe steamer who treated her
lanced said wound and prescribed for
her from time to time until ber arrival
at Glasgow, Scotland. On the 12th
day of June, 1897, tbe entire right side ;
of petitioner’s face was swollen, so
much so that ber mouth and right
eye were dosed. She was totally die-'
abled by said wound from the 2d day
day of June, 1897, until the 24th day
of July, 1897, and she has not yet re
covered from said wound. Dr. Will
Johnson, of Rome, is at present her
attending physician. Tbe wound was
of such a serious nature and virulent
character that it had to be dressed
»very fifteea minute* for several
4«ra.’’
