FRIDAY, OCT. 20. 1939 NORTH GEORGIA TRIBUNE PAGE FIVE Woman’s Club Has Interesting Meet Friday Afternoon Canton Woman's Club met in an interesting meeting on Friday af- ternoon at the Woman's Club to hear a program on “Citizenship”, prepared by Mrs. Tom Arnold, chairman of the American Citizen- ship Committee.

Those who attended were: Mesdames Griffin Roberts, R. F. Poole, J. E. Johnston, Tom Arnold, J. H. Bagwell, E. E. Price, Charlie Cobb, O. P. Galt, P. W. Jones, J. B. Parham, N. E.

Will Be Fall Bride People I Know By BLANCHE JONES A FRIEND OR TWO Wilber D. Nesbit There's all of pleasure and all of peace In a friend or two; And all your troubles may find release With a friend or two; It's in the grip of the clasping hand On native soil or in alien land. But the world is made—do you understand?— Of a friend or two. A little laughter; perhaps some tears With a friend or two; The days, the weeks, and the months and years With a friend or two; A vale to cross and a hill to climb. Mock at age and jeer at time— The prose of life takes the lilt of rhyme With a friend or two. Then brim the goblet and quaff the toast To a friend or two. For glad the man who can al- ways boast Of a friend or two; The fairest sight is a friendly face. The blighest tread is a friendly pace. And heaven will be a better place For a friend or two. The above poem is printed this week at the request of Jimmy Watt, of Nelson, who, as you know, has just recently completed that masterpiece of carving or sculp- toring—whichever is the correct title for the Texas memorial. Jim- mie thinks the poem is as beautiful as I think his work is. Every time I try to tell some- thing somebody always goes me one better. I was detailing to Louise (Mrs. John) Wood the un- usual and unique feat of cutting my finger rather badly with a ta- ble knife—which I still contend is an unusual and unique accomplish ment in my house—when she came out with the story about the dog- wood tree. Just last week she and her moth- er, Mrs. R. T. Jones, were riding around the section of 14th and Spring Streets in Atlanta when Louise spied a dogwood tree in bloom, which in itself is most un- usual. Incidentally this is not the same dogwood tree which you may have read about in Sunday's paper. Her mother, not having seen the tree, would naturally not believe that Louise had seen a dogwood tree in bloom, so to prove her point Louise rode back to the spot and showed the same to her moth- er. It was a pink dog wood—at this particular time—and according to the woman to whom the tree be- longs, it blooms twice a year—in the fall and in the spring. And it blooms pink in the fall and white in the spring. There are four oth- er trees in the same yard but they bloom according to tradition—in the spring when all dog wood trees SHOULD bloom. And this partic- ular tree has bloomed in just such a manner as it is now blooming for several years. If you know a story better than this one I'll print it. You will notice this week the enticements offered to induce peo- ple to the bowling alley. I never have been over there that I didn't have to wait for an alley— but anyway they are giving away real money to winners—and the winners will have to be good. I happened in there Tuesday night and saw Mary Elizabeth Smith, of Coker Hospital, lay down a direct challenge to all feminine bowlers. With three spares on her first six balls, she ended with a score of 125. Which is a fair score for any woman bowling enthusiast. Of course those of us who were bowl ing with her didn’t lay down much of a challenge—but after all the prizes are for the high scores and unfortunately it doesn't make any mention of low scores.
