House Party Near Newborn.
The picturesque home of Mr.
and Mrs. Robert Campbell,
Pine Glove was enlivened by a
house party in honor of Miss Sallio
Me * Maddox, of Godfrey.
During this house party Y every
dii y !, r"Ught some new pleasure,
pverv evHiiing some novG and um
qne feature. New acquisitions
w o' made each day to the charm¬
ing oircie of invited guests by the
coming oi Newton’s lovely daugh¬
ters and gallant sons. Excursions
to poults of interest, pleasant
rides through the cool woodlands
bv day and moonlight rides were
like a“mid-summer nights dream »»
Picnics, barbecues and every
pleasure that the summer could
give were enjoyed by the merry
House Party.
The crowning event of the house
pari v was the elegant reception,
the grand climax, in honor of the
charming guests, The parlors,
verandas and hall-ways wereadorn
ed with fragrant flowers, wreaths
and sp: ays from woodland bowers.
Arranged in a semi-circle were the
members of the “house party,”
who received every new arrival
with stately grace. Mr. Robert
Campbell, mine host and his love¬
ly wife stood near and greeted all
with pleasant words and smiles of
welcome.
Miss Sallie Mae Maddox, the
guest of honor, wore the sweetest
of all costumes for a fair young
giri—snowy dainty white, soft
laces and ribbons gave to it the
misty, filmy beauty which reminds
us of Airy Fairy Lillian. Miss
Maddox is a southern beauty of
rare type.
Delicious refreshmants were
served with true southern hospi¬
tality This pleasant house party
will long be remembered by all
who were the fortunat 0 guests of
Mr. and Mrs. Campbell. Those
who composed the party were,
Mis*es Sallie Mae Maddox, of
Godfrey, Nellie Speer, of Newborn
Ruth Patrick, Mansfield, Rosa
Patrick, Newborn, Lena Green,
Larue Carter, Nettie Carter, Puny
Lee, of Covington. Messrs Chas.
Robertson, Isaac Robertson, Har

The Nnrtb Texas Conference in¬
creased its membership nearlv one
thousand. North West, Tex ,
New Mexico. South Georgia,North
Alabama, Texas, ILdston and
Mississippi Conferences follow
close upon the figures of the North
Texas Conference.
The Woman’s Home Mission
Society of the North Ga., Confer¬
ence has 2,022 members, if each
one would make an earnest effort
and secure one new' member and
every one by her money and pray¬
ers would do all she could, how
much could be done toward reliev¬
ing fuflVring humanity, educating
thp illiterate and giving the go«
pe| to t he lieathern that come t<>
our shores.
Some claim that if they kn-*w to
what special purpose their money
would go, they would pay more
cheerfully. Lots all try to do
more this year and show our ap¬
preciation and gratitude for the
many bless'iiga God has bestowed
upon us. Tivre are none m our
society who could not give the
amount( $2.50. expected for a year
from each 0 f the members.
This is one of the important
i j for the
factors in raising money
j Home Mission society to say
nothing of the helpful n flue-ices
j it has upon the childhood ot the
church. There is a little baby
gill on our Baby Loll. When her
mother gave her name to our vice
President she said * * This is the
first t ime her name has been wru
ten. I never see that little thing
t jj at X don’t think of it, and I do
hope that she may grow to be a
