In th^ hegllning of the year the fol lowing officers were elected President Mrs. Joe M. Few Secretary, Mrs. W. Ei. White Treasurer, Mrs. Mrs. W. G. Mlddlebrooks Chaplin, Mrs. W. M. Few The membership was devlded Into various standing committees and we find it a much more satisfactory plan than having now committees appointed J b’K an each time we set out to aecoroplish < propTH ft thing. lulah Falls as It is along educational j lines. | The Cli.b has appointed Its reporter! to write a hls'tory of Appal.

During the last term our Club offer ed a prize to tho loom at school making the most Improvements in that room these improvements were be made to make more convem ience and sanitation aa well as com fort and beauy. Eacch room received credit for all work done to improve id beautify the school ground. Of course this work was done by io pupils themselves to create school pride to encourage industrial vork and manual arts as well love for the beautiful and orderly > founnd the children only need ed this encouragement to put them to >rk. It did not only hinder the re gular literary work but added a stimulus v-hich brought better results I around. On.tho Fourth Day of July the dub with the schcool trustees held an edu cational and patriotic Rally in tits little club park some cimnunlty sing- two speeches compo.sed tho barbecue dinner was sold and about eighty dollors was rea- Rlght here we would say that wej ,,ze ^ w,lh which part of the school find It next to impossible to cooperate I <,ebt ' m ® Paid, fully with all the various departments j wow funds of our district state and National Fed- RAISED erftU.jr ■ by this that we havfe so 'few who arc active members wo have to double up to get’ an active memlar on each committee unless the federat ' ed-work is of tho same nature as work done by the loccal committee then there Is no one left to do the foreign work so as to speak. Any one knows that a club of about thirty members with only six or eight who are regularly active has Its limitations and especially In a country community where the women have most of their own house work and chickens raising to do. Then too It Is also known that lit tle towns and country communities h-ive no tax or other public funis to pay for the upkeep or even Ire building of school houses or «thcr public buildings just as cities have What Is everybody's business seems to be nobody's bushiest so all expense attached to mich build*.ig* Ur iheir upkeep etc. falls on the same little handful! of faithful workers who are the very heart and life of the civic ftnd religious organisations of oo as I said before any organization n limit to its actilvitles. I This is written, not to excuse our own club for net doing more of. the work requested by the various depart ments of the Federation but to make It clear that all rural clubs such os ours have so mucu to do at home that they can not do all they feel Inclined to undertake for the Federation. 1 However wo want a part In every thing that wj possibly can and we do as much as ,we c*n even though our part l»e vori* small. For Instance lost spring our local school Board was In debt the build ing needed repairs the roof leaked fire'escapes were badly needed and o number of children were kept out ol school because <ri a lack of funds for clothing, books and incidentals It clear that all rural cclubs such ns we helped the nnt*A< jmv rjff debt, have fire csenpes In nnd some repairs made besides having sent our annual donation to our worthy nnd remark Our club makes its funds In many ways and like most other rural clubs I r suppose besides the barbecue we had a tacky party this summer, sold Ice cream on several accasions served the local masonic Lodge and some visitors from the Athens Lodge with a kind of dinner one evening and realized a small sum; and so licited subscriptions for the Country Gentlemen a paper wo feel should bo In every small town and rural homo We find our greatest difficulty In doing satisfactory dub work Is In get. ting the members interested enough to think of the meetings and then to come after we get them there we.find them all very responsive. Although we often are tempted to become discouraged lese henrt and nnd quit we know we must not so we hold on and keep the little 'orga nization alive even though only one or two seem really Interested. , Then when we are needed for some big worthy move that everyone seems interested In; when everybody responds and our community seems na* ns one; our weakening faith In those about us IS strengthened nnd we feel that all of our little feeble seeming ly unappreciated efforts have been as jewels-placed one by one in a cr< worn by one of our most faithful presentatlve members where other nnd know Just what wo are trying to do and why.

' Such was the conclusion of r*hlef of Police Janes P. Colle, of this city nt the conclusion of a demonstration given to Flint officials to prove the efficiency of the Buick-^four-wheel brakes. \ i At the invitation of the Bulck Motor company. Chief Cole, Mayor Cuthbet4son, Police Sergeant Mc Donnell, and three police commis sioners. were shown what he new brakes would do at various speeds city street* and country roads. At the conclusion all agreed that the demonstration was a revelation and that in their opinion when applied all cars, four-wheel brakes will (luce accidents 75 per cent, *'I have no doubt that It will many lives nnd prevent many nccldent remarked Chief Ccle. To which Ser., McDonnell added, "nc anything like It. Stopped the car In le-half the distance and without any ir or jerk. The" Mayor was equally enthusiastic The greatest thing ever," he remarked. 'Once when tve were going thirty-five miles an hour, the car was brought standstill In a little over thirty feet." Loaded with seven passengers, the ir was driven through the down town streets where traffic Is heaviest ire It was demonstrated that could be brought to a stand, still within the length or two from o speed of ten to fifteen miles an hour. Satisfied as to these testa the party drove at the rate of twenty-five miles houg. The driver applied the brakes and stopped within a car’s width of a passing trolley car. Anoth- motoi car could' have passed be tween the demonstrator and tjie trolley On the country road speed was In- erwined from thirty to thirty-five mile* and hour To demonstrate how quick, ly the car could be stopped at this sj>eed. the driver drove very close to the rear of a horse-drawn express wagon. Coming up to within a short disantn of the latter, the brakes were applied nnd tho car brought to n stand still In thirty three feet. The aarne test was applied In running head on toward n telephone pole. The significance of these results Is best appreciated when the standard police mke tests are considered.
