beautiful gardens. The tour was
started at Memorial Gardens on
the University of Georgia campus
where examples of formal garden
plantings were shown on a large
scale. The President’s home on
Prince Avenue where the box
woods were outstanding, and the
spacious grounds in the rear of
the mansion were filled with many
specimens and interesting exam
ples of outdoor beauty. Mrs. O. C.

The tour then proceeded ta the

types of gardens were shown here,
including a garden house with out
door grill and terrace. Mrs. Cas
key has a greenhouse, as well as
gardens, and plants of all types
were shown and admired by the
members of the club.
The home of Mrs. Garnet Daniel
on Rocky Ford Road was the last
place visited and a delightful pic
nic lunch was served on the flag
stone terrace. Mrs. Daniel, a mem
ber of the Bobbin Mill Garden
Club, took the members around
her gardens and told them the

FuElicity Chairman
lefferson Davis
hine 3 1809
Jefferson Davis, the youngest
of ten brothers and sistgrs, svas
born June third, 1809, in Fairview,
Kent!leY, and this date is one
that is observed in memory of this
great leader by the United Daugh
ters of the Confederacy, and the
Sons of Confederate Veterans who
are at this time holding their last
reunion in Norfolk, Virginia.
_The life of Jefferson Davis and
his achievements can easily be re
viewed by consulting easily ac
cessible accounts of his life, so
we wish to czll attention to some
of the monuments erected in his
honor.
The Jefferson Davis Monument
at Fairview, Ky., the place of his
birth, was dedicated June 7’24 and
is the tallest of all the Confederate
monuments. It is an obelisk of
concerete and limestone. 351 feet
high, 35 feet square on six feet of
solid rock, with a weight of 30,-
000,000 pounds. In the center of
this greatest of monuments erect
ed to the Confederate cause, an
elevator is placed in the twenty
feet space, and when the top is
reached, four states, eKntucky,
Tennessee, Illinois and Indiana
can easily be seen.
The Jefferson Davis monument
on Lee Circle, Monument Avenue,
Richmond, Virginia, is also a
splendid tribute to the President
of the Confederate States.
The bronze Jefferson Davis
monument in New Orleans, un
veiled February 22, I§ll, repre
sents Mr. Davis in the act of mak
ing an addess.
In driving along the Jefferson
Davis Highway, which stretches
from the Atlantic to the Pacific,
one is impressed with the low cut
simple markers, which fit into
their surroundings, which do hon
or to this great Southern leader.
In Georgia, at Irwinville, there
is a Jefferson Davis Memorial
Park visited annually by the Uni
ted Daughters of the Confederacy
on the date nearest the birthday
of Jefferson Davis. This year the
pilgrimage is to be made on Fri
day, June the first, and an all day
picnic will be enjoyed. In the
building, which marks the spot
where President Davis was taken
prisoner by the Union forces,
there is a Museum in which his
toric reminders will be assembled
by those interested in preserving
the articles which speak to the
coming generations of the life that
was once lived in the South.

Beef Ceilings
' i
Don’t Bar Sales
. w
At Lower Prices
ATLANTA, May 31 — The new
retall ceiling prices on beef ara
the “top” prices which may be
legally charged, and price control
regulations do not prevent butch
ers or other retailers from selling
at lower prices, James F. Hollings=
worth, district director of the Of=
fice of Price Stabilization in At
lanta, pointed out today, Ceiling
prices on beef must be posted in
all stores on June 18.
His statement was issued to cor=
rect an erroneous impression thad
\OPS beef ceiling prices were is=-
'sued to “standardize” prices and
that retailers must boost their
prices to the OPS legal ceiling.
~ In fact, Hollingsworth pointed
out, OPS plans to roll back the
‘retail ceiling prices on beef ap
?rloximately 10 cents per pound by
fall.
“The ceiling prices on beef that
went into effect May 14 were top
legal maximum prices designed to
establish normal profits for re=
tailers and wholesalers who may
have been caught in a squeeze sit
uation when their prices wera
frozen January 2 while live catile
prices continued to rise. A regula
tion which was effective May 20
established buyer ceilings on live
cattle for the first time and rolled
back by 10 per cent the prices
which may be paid producers.
~ “This rollback will be reflected
‘on up through the various stages
of the supply system, with the re=
sult that retail prices will be re=
duced between 4 and 5 cents pen
pound August 1, and a like amoun®
October 1,” Hollingsworth ex=
plained. _
Meanwhile, retailers may charge
lower — but not higher — prices
than the legal ceilings set by OPSg
he explained.
