She will return to Athens to open heri classes the first week in Septem ber, l . 5 3 Miss Annie Vic Dean, ] Of Danielsville, Is Party Honoree Here’ Miss Annie Vie Dean of Daniels ville was honored last night with a surprise birthday party at the home of her grandmother, Mrs. J.!

THE CMPLETE REFRIGERATOR B UYS DOWN nss LF e 3 Y ' dfl s: LOW AS . $A .85 A DAY 4 T T s : INCORPORATED Hundreds of Friends Pay Loving Tribute To Mrs. Rebecca Murrah ] Gerdine on Her 90th Anniversary ~ BY KATHERYN SEAGRAVES f Mrs. Rebecca Murrah Gerdine, one of Athens’ oldest and most be loved citizens, is celebrating her ‘ninetieth birthday today at the home of her daughter, Mrs. T. J. Wooster, on Dearing street. It is fitting that she should cele brate her birthday here where her husband, Joseph Henry Lumpkin Gerdine, lived and was educated, receiving his law degrees from Princeton and the University of Georgia. Numbering among her relatives are the Crawfords, Lump kins and Gerdines of Oglethorpe and Clarke cowunties. Mrs. Gerdine, is descended from the Scotch-Irish families of Cure ton and Belton of Camden, S. C,, and on her immediate paternal side numberg nren high in standing in service of the Methodist church both at home and abroad, her fa ther being 'a minister of high standing ir the conference. Mrs., Gerdine is a valued member of the First Methodist church here and is an honorary member of the Kate Cooper missionary circle, She has lived in Athens a number of years and, for a time, resided in Mississippi, her childhood home, where she was married to Mr. Ger dine in 1867, a few years after the War Between the States. Mr. Ger dine was a veteran of the war, fighting under General Lee, She has five children, Mrs. T. J Wooster, Athens; Mrs. Harvie Jora dan, Atlanta; Miss Corine Gerd:iig, who leaves today to join Rev, I, L. Gerdine in Korea; Mrs. W. B. Burke, Macon; and Rev. J. L.

The in terior 1s roomy, too, with a place for everything. Priced with the Lowest And here’s more good news! Leonard prices are low . . . actually right down with the lowest! So if you want to save money and play safe on buying your refrigerator come in and see the new Leonard. Mrs. Gerdine is as active as a women years younger than she and possesses a youthful sparkle in her eve, which does much to belie her ninety years. To the many ex clamations of “I just don't believe it!” Mrs, Gerdine seemed at a loss how to reply until one admirer said, “Don’t try to say anything; just look on with that twinkle in your eye which might intimate that it is all a joke.” And unless you were told she is ninety years old today, you would think her years vounger than she really is with her pleasant smile and keen sense of humor, Today many friends called dur ing the “open house” in Mrs. Woof ter’'s home to honor this remarkable woman, ; Among the lovely messages re ceived by Mrs, Gerdine was one from her daughter, Mrs. William B. Burke of Macon, who was un able to be here for the celebratlon.‘ Written by a famous poet, it is.‘ indeed, applicable to Mrs, Gerdine today: “Even at the age of ninety there are valuable personalities whno have never lost their faith in the achievement of the un achieved. “Within them the flame of youth burns high. They are still pressing on toward the high calling of God.” And it is to those like Mrs. Ger dine who lend reverence and beau ty to the present and honor and glory to the past. Her life has been one of service to God and to her fellow man and she richly de serves His blessing on this day.

Economy Auto Stores Offers Low Prices on - Leonard Electrics B R ) The law of mass production, which ig that the more of a prod uet a manufacturer sells, the cheaper and better he can sell them, is working to the benefit of electric refrigerator purchasers this year more noticeably than ever, according to Ernest Crymes of Economy Auto Stores, local dealers for the Leonard Refrigera tor Company. “One look at the 1935 Leonard models is the best indication of how public acceptance of a prod uct leads inevitably to its im provement in quality and value,” Mr. Crymes said. “Because of the fact that more people every yvear have been turning to Leon ard as the answer to their home refrigerator at a remarkably low‘ price. “The mew Leonards are unsur passed in efficiency, beauty and. quality of construction, They in corporate features and advance-‘ ments found on few other refrig erators selling at comwparablej prices today, and which were un heard of in the refrigeracdion in dustry a few years ago. “Folding and sliding shelves, the famous Len-A-Dor door-opening pedal, automatic interior light, vegetable crisper, cold chest, super speed freezing tray, automatic de-§ froster, stainless ice cube trays— these are some of the features and conveniences which Leonard u! able to offer refrigerator buyers today.” I Michael’'s August ’ / 4. / ) / R It's Clearaway Time at Michael's!
