Mrs. Davis began the fifth les
son of the nutrition course, which
the Red Cross has been giving the
Troop for credit on their senior
service badge, by having them
score themselves on the food
they had eaten the day before.
Then the girls ate a delicious

After this the Troop planned
their final nutrition lesson which
will be a “cook-out,” sometime in

Miss Tabor’s Third Grade
.. Our class invited Mrs. Fergu
son, Jean's mother, to come to
see us and play the piano and
sing with us. Last Thursday mor
ning she came and played some
semi-classical music and taught
the class “Largo” and “The Wed
ding of Jack and Jill.”-We had &
very nice time and we hope that
she will come back soon.
The class has learned the two,
three, four, five, six, seven, ten
and eleven multiplication tables
Maybe we will soon know all of
them. There are problems and
exereises in our book to go with
some of the multiplication tables.
We make problems and games to
go with all of them and enjoy
them. 2
The third grade hopes that all
the mothers will come to P. T. A.
the first Thursday in March.
Please come to see our room. We
are looking forward to spring—
making some pretty spring pos
ters and border.

always recognize them when we
read.
We are learning how to add
unlike fractions, also mixed num

First Grade News
Christopher Lacher wrote this
little story about his trip to Sav
annah:
MY TRIP
“T rode with my mother and my
sister in the car to Savannah. 1
went to the beach. I went to see
my father. I played with some
new friends, Judy and Carl.”
We have been writing stories
and sentences too, and Miss Flo
rine wants us to be sure and take
them home for our mothers and
fathers to see. We are learning to
spell words so we can write
good. When we get them all right
we have been getting a cherry
tree, Valentines and flag. We
have our names on a big chart
and we are trying. to see how
many pictures we can get.
We didn't get to tell you about
our assembly on Valentine. The
boys dressed up with hearts,
darts and arrows and all had a
George Washington hatchet. We
sang a song — and our hatches
would ring as the song we sang
with such a merry sound.
The girls were dressed up with
Valentine hats and dresses and
we chose a boy for our Valentine
partner and sang a little song
and did a little dance.
So many of our mothers came
and we were so glad. Mrs. Epting
came with her movie camera and
made some pitcures.
Along with Valentine camc
some more birthdays, ice cream,
cake and fun. They were Jimmy
Lumpkins, Jere Huggins and
Carol Downs.

At Woman’s Club
Athens’ Woman's Club held its
February meeting, Tuesday, in the
home of Mrs. J. L. Crews, West
Cloverhurst, with Mrs. L. O. Price
and Mrs. Waldo Rice as assistant
hostesses.
The Club voted to send a letter
to Representatives Joel and Wells
protesting the passage of House
Bill 306 which would abolish the
Georgia Citizen's Council, and ail
that is included under the Coun
cil, ;such as; Teen-age Centers;
Junior Citizenship programs;
Youth CTouncils; Training Insti
tutes for Recreation workers and
Nursery School leaders, etc. Ex
cerpts from the bill were read
by Mrs. Julia Vernooy.
Mrs. J. W. Bailey, president, in
the absence of the Liurary Chair
man, Mys. Ethel Stubbs, mention--
ed the coming bond election in
March. She urged all the ladies to
go to the polls and vote, since this
election is for '$200,000; $150,000
for the General Hospital and $50,-
000 for the Regional Library.
Dr. B. O. Williams, department
of sociology of the University, was
introduced by the president and
spoke on “The Influence of the
Home and the Community upon
the Personality of People.” He
had a large chart by which he
illustrated the conflicts of youth
with people of an older generation
in the culture in which their per
sonal traits and habits were form
ed. He quoted the old saying “You
can’t get the country out of the
boy, although you may get the boy
out of the country.” He pointed out
how all the marvelous discoveries
and inventions of the past decades
have changed the mode of life of
all the people. He mentioned the
inventions of electric lamps,
phonograph, movies, radio and
airplane and how these things
ushered in a new day and speeded
transportation and communication
for the world.
‘ Rural Free Delivery
~ He told about how Rural Free
Delivery of mail was fought by
‘Senator Ben Tillman of S. C., when
Tom Watson introduced the bill
‘in Congress, declaring that to de
liver mail to rural people would
bankrupt the government. We all
know of the great undertaking of
mail delivery to all parts of the
‘entire world du ‘'ng the recent
World War 11 and at least half of
it was carried free and still it did
not bankrupt the Federal Govern
‘ment. Dr. Willianis contrasted the
strange, long, trailing skirts of the
ladies of the past with the skirts
of today and also of the change
’of aititude of both young and old
in regard to what is “right” or
Wwhat is termed “wrong.” He dis
’.cussed the winning of the right
of sufferage by women and the
hope to clean up dirty politics by
Wwomen. :
* To many of the' members Dr.
William’s talk was like a “flash
back” over the vears in which
they themselves had lived-like o
slow moving picture the years un
folded and there passed in review
all the wonders of the age—the
coming of the new inventiops and
improvements in every way of
life. Each woman realized what a
glorious period she had lived her
span of years, in spite of the eco
nomic turmoil and the tragic war
of recent times. .
Mrs. J. W. Bailey presided over
the meeting and Mrs. Edwin Pusey
led the club in reading the Club
Woman’s Creed. Mrs. Pusey
now lives in Auburn, Ala.: also
Mrs. Gilmer and Mrs. Shy, all for
mer Club members were greeted
and cordially welcomed by the
Club upon their return. Mrs.
Vaughan, a newcomer to Athens
from New York, but whose hus
band is a eorgian, was greeted
and invited to become a member
of ‘the Club.
Mrs. J. C. Stiles was given a
vote of appreciation for the lovely
camellias she presented the officers
at the January Luncheon meeting.
Delicious Russian fruit punch and
sandwiches were served by the
hostesses.
