In February, 1909, twelve years ago, several friends met and decided to or ganize a club of young married women which they called the Young Matrons club. Until this time .there had been no social club of this nature in our lit tle city. These matrons invited other matrons who were mutual friends to become members until the membership was in creased to twenty. Since that time several have left to make their homes in other cities, so that the membership now numbers fif teen. We have been very fortunate in having lost only one member by death. When this club was organized it was simply as a social club, but in October 1918, three years ago, we decided to federate and identify ourselves with the work the federated clubs of Geor gia are engaged in, and since that time we have been a part of this great or ganization. Our club being small in number, we have not been able to ac complish all the things a club of lar ger membership could have accomplish ed, but the two things we have stood for principally have been civic improve ment and education. In various ways we have given mate rial aid to the city officials in trying to make our little city more attractive as well as sanitary, having placed over the business section of the city a number of garbage cans and fly traps, and plans are now being made to beautify some vacant lots by putting out shrub bery, flowers and other plants which we hope will be an improvement in that way. As to education, we have contributed numbers of times to different causes for the benefit of our Winder Public schools, as well as sending a check each year to our own federation school —the Tallulah Falls school—and have con tributed also to a fund for Agnes Scott college. Last year we organized a circulating library among the members of the club and are making plans to procure a room for the use of our club, in the new Barrow county courthouse, which will soon be completed. During the war we bought Liberty bonds, helped with the Red Cross work and contributed in every way possible to the welfare and comfort of our sol diers ; practiced thrift and conserva tion along all lines, and expect to con tinue this practice of thrift. At the north Georgia fair held in Winder last October our club won first prize of $25 for the prettiest float en tered. At the last business meeting of the club it was decided to buy the manuals and take advantage of a nurs es training course of six weeks to be given by the Red Cross nurse of Bar row county. We are looking forward with much pleasure to the district meeting of the federated clubs of the ninth district to be held with us in the spring, for we feel sure it will be a great inspira tion and benefit to our club.— Sunday’s Atlanta Journal.
