TO W. S. S. CALL
VIENNA. QA.. THURSDAY. JUNE 27, 1018
NUMBER 48
MAJORITY OF YOUNG VIEN.
NIANS ENROLLED AS MEM
BERS OF WAR SAVINCS CLUB.
A happy idea that originated with
the Woman’s W. S. S. Committee
^hich is bringing happy results was
the formation of War Savings Clubs
among the young Americans of this
city. In order to make it possible
for over/ young person from the ba
bies up. to have a part in this plan
which has a two-fold purpose, the in
culcation of the principles of thrift
and helping to support -the govern
ment’s war program, three clubs
have been instituted. These are de
nominated the $6.00 W. S. S. Club,
the $10.00 W. S. S. Club and the
$20.00 W. S. S. Club. Eligibility to
membership depends solely on a
pledge to buy War Savings Stamps
to the extent of the amount named.
The young folks and children are ex
hibiting a great deal of interest in
the plan. With many no sacrifice
will be necessary to msot these
pledges but others are signing the
cards, knowing that it will entail a
certain amount of self-denial and per-
>haps a little extra work to make the
investment but they are responding
willingly.
Mrs, O. W. Horne and Mrs. R. S.
Middleton have undertaken the task
AND MRS. H.R. FENN
GIVE MINIMI. DINING
FRIDAY, JUNE 21ST, CELEBRAT
ED WITH THE USUAL MANI
FESTATION OF C-HEER.
Go
mmissioners
for May
of spreading this thrift propaganda
The war has brought many changes
but the scores of friends of Mr. and
Mrs. H. R. Fenn who look forward
each year to the 21st of June, when
it is the custom 'of these hospitable
folk to entertain with a real dinner,
are delighted that it has no$ yet been
necessary to abandon this happy cus
tom, and that they have been privi
leged once again to have a part in
the pleasures of these un'usually en
joyable occasions. The host and
hostess are being congratulated fur
ther upon their ability to stage such
an affair and at the same time patri
otically conform to the orders of Mr.
Hoover. The fact that they have
done this makes their friends all the
more appreciative of their hospitali
ty this year, because they recognize
that it entailed a certain amount of
self denial to make the occasjon pos
sible.
One thing is true of these annual
affairs given by Mr. and Mrs. Fenn,
they have no counterpart, this type
of old-fashioned hospitality being al
most extinct The assembling of
friends and acquaintances from far
and wide, the bountiful dinner, per-
pectly prepared and served under
neath the wide spreading oaks, the

A NICE HOME AND FARM
LOST—Pocketbook, $36 in cash,
return to W. C. Duke, Moultrie, Ga.
Miss Leta Wood, County Demon
stration Agent, held a cottage cheese
demonstration at Lilly Tuesday af
ternoon. A large crowd of ladies
were present and a splendid interest
was evidenced by all.
In war time every unnecessary pur
chase is an unwise one.
The weighing and measuring test
day afternoonshrdluhrd htarharahrar
of children conducted here Friday af
ternoon was most successful. A re
port from the chairman shows that
forty children were examined, -of
these nineteen measured up to
standard, showing proper devel
tnent, the remainder fell somewhat
khort of the standard though none
gave evidence of any marked physical
defect >The test will probably be
extended throughout the county.
At a meeting of the W. S. S. Com
mittees from the various districts
throughout the county held here Tues-.
day afternoon reports as to the prog
ress- of the campaign that is being
conducted were heard. The majority
of these were encouraging, the com
mittees _in some districts having al
ready secured pledges to cover q
greater per cent of their allotmepts.
Others reported preparations made to
launch definite campaigns during the
week. ,
The most satisfactory report mads
came from the Findlay District, Mr:
J. H. Porter, Chairman of this dis
trict brought pledge cards Signed '
showing the full quota subscribed and
an oversubecription'of more than a
thousand dollars.
All over the county an intense ef
fort is being made to have tho
entire quota subscribed by tonight so
that no work will be necessary tomor
row and the day can be devoted to a
sort of celebration of a. duty well
performed. It is hoped that all com-
mitteerf will be able to report their
respective quotas fully subscribed to
