NEW YEAR’S OPEN HOUSE
A lovely social affair that tv as char¬
acterized by simple elegance and
iyne hospitality was the occasion on
Jan. 1st, when Mr. trd Mrs. r. .
Withoft entertained at op o. house
from three o’clock in the a'temOon
till ten in the evening.
In these busy days much of the
old time hospitality and many beau¬
tiful old customs of former days
have been abandoned arid the an¬
nouncement that Mr. and Mrs. With¬
oft would keep open house was re¬
ceived with a great deal of pleasure
bylnany in the little Peach city.
The home was attractively adorned
in cut flowers and ferns and as the
friends came and went, mingling
their voices in happy fellowship with
friends, ’mid the perfume of flowers,
the occasion was one long to be re¬
membered by all who were present.
Mrs. Robert Hale and Miss Katie
May Williams received the guests at
the door as they arrived and they
were greeted in the reading room j
by Mr. and Mrs. Withoft and their
mother, Mrs. Withoft, of California,
who speedily made everyone who
called feel a cordial welcome.
In the dining room Mrs. Cornelius I j
Hall and Mrs. Glenmore Green
poured tea and coffee from the table,
which was overlaid with a Maderia
lace cover and had for the central
decoration a large basket of Enchant¬
ress Carnations. A bevy of charming
girls assisted in serving during the
afternoon and evening. They were
Misses Ruth and Christine Evans,
Mary Grimes, Maxwell Taylor, Marie
Thomas and Ann Baird.
Miss Fannie Vining served oysters
with cocktail from a lovely ice bowl.
In the music room a delightful pro¬
gram of piano music was rendered
by Misses Elizabeth Evans and Fran¬
ces Brown during the afternoon,
while the evening was enlivened by
orchestras in distant cities via radio.
Some seventy-five people called be- *

tween the hours of three and ten.
the good brothers who were so
to give the land for a harbor and
light house to stand up and offer a
! camping ground. With the festival
just around the corner we can’t give
any time to sucking ea water. The
harbor can wait, but we need the
camping ground now. Don’t everyone
speak at once.
A dlightful informality pervaded the
entire occasion, a charming feature
of which wast he presence of old and
young, even entire families at the
same time.
The Withofts’ home has been the
scene of many lovely social gather¬
ings, but this occasion will be long
remembered by all who called.
VISITS CITY
About four months ago Mr. and
Mrs. Layton and five children were
living in Cumberland, Md. Mr. Lay
ton’s health was so bad his doctor
told him he had just about.six weeks
to live, so they left Maryland in a
covered wagon drawn by two mules
end beaded towards Morgan City, La.,
where Mr. Layton’s mother lives. Last
Thursday they passed through Fort j
Valley. On the road four months trav
cling 20 to 30 miles per say, with no
punctures nor blowouts during the
whole trip-. They claim that the best
people they have met on the road
live right here in Georgia. Here’s
wishing them luck and hoping Mr.
Layton will regain his health in th
sunny south.

The next few weeks will bring
port unity for exciting events in
j county.
We are not insinuating that
folks of this community arc s
: for lack of “something doing,” On
the contrary, they keep the ball roll
|ing to such an extent'that a dav off
j would be a thing of joy. (But you
i | don’t dare suggest that anyone k cvp
out of anything that is of interest
Peach county.)
We are hardly through with one
commuaitv interest before another
| "pops up." The Peach Blossom Festi
val just nV>\v is a glorious adventure,
with everyone eager to help make it
c success whether as "peanut or
cueen," as one of the ladies express
( <1 it. Here’s hoping the dream will be
realized.
We can’t for the life of us see
that restlessness and desire for
experiences in the young folks around
here, tliat we hear so much about in
other places. Of course, npw and then
there is an exception that proves the
j I rule. But on the whole the young
folks seem to , get , more fun f out of ,. f
j outdoor sports than anything else, j ;
I i They seem to prefer horse back rid
ing to auto racing. In fact, horse >
back riding has become quite a fad
with 'he younger set and we heartily
'
approve except in cases where they
overdo it, as when riding up and
down near churches on Sunday morn-'
ings during the hour of worship. We
don’t mean to criticise, we just care
lots for our young folks and want
them to be "just right.” If they do
not care to attend church we want
them to have consideration for those
who do.
MR. WEBSTER ON THE JOB
In Webster’s wildest dreams he
could never have forseen that his
dictionary would be studied from cov¬
er to cover as it has since the cross
word craze.
There were so many words that lay
idle for so many years, just no use
at all for anything. Just oodles of
were left untouched on
the shelves. But nowadays, t’s hard
to find one that hasn’t torn or ruf¬
fled backs and thumbed leaves.
(), well, it’s an ill wind that blows
nobody good and the crossword has
certainly put some pep into the dic¬
tionary.
LET’S HAVE A LOURIST CAMP
Macon tells us through her paper
that the tourist camp is a wonder¬
ful asset. One touris t na frHfcO.OO cash
for an article bought at Christmas
for a gift and we have decided that
a tourist camp is the next thing that
Fort Valley needs and she needs it
before the Peach Blossom Festival.
Who knows but some families might
like to come down and hang out a
few days ahead of time just to learn i
how we do it'i We’d like for some of
