The annual meeting of the
Local Red Cross Chapter was
held last Wednesday in the
school auditorium. Miss Bonnie
Newsom had charge of a delight
ful musical programme that add
ed much pleasure to the occasion.
The reports were made for the
past year’s work which shows
that much has been accomplish
ed and the county has every
reason to be proud of the chap
ter’s work. Officers for the en
suing year were elected and fu
ture work planned.
Reynolds has used various
means of demonstrating her en-
iiiusiasm over the recent war
news. The whole town is alive
with spirit and patriotism. The
.school children left the school
building at three o’clock and par
aded through the town with
flags and banners waving high,
yelling and singing. In the ev
ening a number of cars formed
in parade through the town
storming the town with a “vol
ley of noise”. Followed by a
funeral procession to the burial
of “Kaiser Bill” when tne cer
emony was performed by “Rev.”
Hoke McDaniel, to the joy of
all present.
Reports on the sweet potato
prospects in Taylor County in
dicate that the largest yield
that this section has ever known
has been produced this year.
This was more forceably im
pressed upon us Saturday when
we saw both in Butler and ai
Reynolds a large number of wag
ons loaded with this appreciated
product bringing them to mark-
te. Among these, however, none
attracted quite so much atten
tion at Reynolds as one basket
brought in by Mr W G Simmons,
'inese potatoes were exceedingly
fine, such as we generally see at
State and County fairs. There
are farmers in this section, such
as Mr. Simmons, and others, who
will produce 300 bushels of pota
toes per acre and many of them
whose potatoes will average 200
bushels to the acre.

in this community, as well as

scowed favors so abundantly to

Gratitude wells up from the
depth of our hearts a^ we re
member the kindness of those
who have done so muclf to com
fort our precious dead and to
brighten for us a starless sky.
