THE LEADER-TRIBUNE, FORT VALLEY, GA., THURSDAY. OCTOBER 5, 1939
WOMAN’S CLUB OBSERVES
ANNIVERSARY
The Woman's club building
packed to capacity with a representa
tive group of women Tuesday after
noon, as.they assembled for the ob
servance of the club’s 35th anniversa
ry as a state and national federated
club, and for the dedication of the
club house.
Mrs. W. A. Wood, president, was in
the chair for the opening
which included the singing of the club
collect in unison to the tune of “Love’s
Old Sweet Song.” Reports were dis¬
pensed with and first the assembly
paused for tribute to Mrs. F. W. With¬
oft, a past president and honorary
member. Mrs. C. N. Rountree read a
poem, “Memory Looks Back”, written
by Mrs. Withoft on the occasion of
the club’s observance of its 25th an¬
niversary in memory of those of the
club membership who had passed on.
The club has had twenty-two presi¬
dents in the past 35 years; some hav¬
ing served two and some only
year.
Mrs. Chester Wilson was in charge
of the program, and spoke of each ad
ministration as having been a pearl
great price.
She presented the past presidents
or their representatives, as they
served, and as each president
some highlight of her administration
from the minutes of that day, Miss
Thelma Wilson stood and designated
that pearl and passed a pearl to Mrs.
Wood, the president, as she strung
them in honor of the presidents.
Mrs. L. L. Brown, organizer and
first president, was designated as the
foundation pearl and so on through
the twenty-two administrations. When
the pearls had all been strung, Mrs.
Maxwell Murray, who was president
|when the club house was built, stepped
forward and holding the string
pearls, dedicated the club house, giv¬
ing credit to all who had served
through the years. She closed her
remarks of dedication with these
words—
“Till the wood here all has crumbled,
And the brick have turned to dust;
May each word here said, be honest;
And each action taken—just.”
Adjournment followed and a lovely
reception was held.
A tea table, at which Mrs. R. A.
Iiiley and Mrs. W. S. White poured
tea and coffee, held a beutifully em¬
bossed cake and candles, which were
lighted as toasts were given repre¬
senting the past, present and future.
Toasts from the Junior Woman’s
club were given by Misses Mary Lil¬
lian Culpepper and Andrea Houser.
Among the out-of-town guests were
Mrs. George Johnson, of Macon, a
past president, who was an honor
guest.
Miss Margaret Vance has been
pledged to Alpha Gamma Delta social
sorority at the Unitersity of Georgia.

SWINE SPECIALIST
OFFERS ADVICE ON
HOUSES, EQUIPMENT
Suggestions on building farrowing
houses, shelter, fences, feeding troughs
and equipment, as well as tips on pro¬
viding plenty of shade and clean
water for swine, were offered this
week by Charles E. Bell, Jr., of Tif
ton, swine specialist for the Georgia
Extension Service.
“There is no need for Georgia farm¬
ers to build expensive hog barns, since
the climate is mild,” Bell pointed out.
“During most of the year, swine need
little shelter; but through the winter
months, it is advisable to protect
animals against cold and dampness.”
The A-type farrowing house was
recommended by Mr. Bell as the “most
popular and economical in this state.”
He stated that floors are not necessary
in this type of house, and that such
buildings are easily moved from one
location to another, in order to keep
them on clean ground.
“Many farmers,” Mr. Bell contin¬
ued, “make the mistake of building
the farrowing house too small. They
should be at least 7x8 feet in size. ■ •
A woven wire fence at least three
feet in height and made of No. 9 wire
was recommended by the specialist

growers.
“Shade for hvg* may be provided
by large trees,” he explained, If
such is not available, artificial shade
may be had by constructing a frame
work shelter and placing straw or pine
tops on woven wire across the top.
| “An oil drum placed on a water
;tight platform surrounded by a 4-inch
ledge, forming drinking vessels be
tween the ledge and sides of the drum,
will furnish the swine with a clean
supply of water at all times.”
The swine specialist said that wood
en troughs are more commonly used
and are more suitable for feeding slop
and water feeds. For grain and con-

ers, since they cause hogs to make
faster gains and, at the same time,
eliminate crowding in the troughs at
feeding time.

learn to eat grain without being mo

large enough, with the entrance to
